I live in Abu Dhabi! Where it is hot and humid all around the year, I myself use retinol with 1% serum each other night. My skin is glowing, healthy, blemish-free and I smother my skin with spf 50 all day-long.
Retinol away my lovely ladies, if retinol is surviving the middle east summer weather, I think it will be ok to use it anywhere else ♥️🤗

The best channel on You Tube. So glad I found you. So much knowledge in that pretty little head of yours. Bring on the laughs and on- point info!

Thank you for posting all price points!! Tons of people posting on cheap products and not the high end more effective products...glad you post all options!

[allegra]

Finally and again thanks! My dermatologist told me ten yrs ago that I can use 365 days a year! And I still do! It’s seem I’m a crazy woman! Not at all! I always trust my MD and here you’re! Thanks Doc! Much love xoxo

Your uploading time is the perfect moment for a saturday afternoon tea and friends. We literally sit down around the table and play your weekly video as if it was a Netflix show. Thank you 🧛🏻‍♀️🖤

[cynthialopez]

You have me looking forward to Saturday mornings. 😌

Love this thank you! I would love to learn more about using different products together to creat a routine. For example how many times a week should I use niacinamide, retinols, etc. if my goals are addressing fine lines and melasma? It would be cool to see tackle different common skin needs with some hypothetical routines. Thanks!

Thank you for being the voice of reason!! I struggle with melasma, but I use my retinal regularly. I've been using an OTC product for four years now, but with my mature, sensitive skin.... I have not been able to make the jump to the 1%. But I will keep trying!

[rebeccabelz]

I absolutely love your videos. I wait each week for the treat of watching and rewatching them. Can't wait to see your products. I was going to try to participate in your melasma test, but I don't think my pics were good enough. I got serious brown spots under my chin on my neck when I went through menopause and have been fighting them ever since. They are a "B" word!

I watch all your videos and every single one adds a beautiful piece of the puzzle. I hope you don’t feel that you repeat your self because all your videos add a new dimension, answer a question or clear up some confusion in my head. Thank you!

You’re so emotional about this topic! Love it 😅

Next video suggestion: discussion of ingredient combinations, what works, what doesn’t and giving example products that have good combinations that could help reduce the number of steps in a skincare routine.

I'm so happy to have confirmation that I can use Differin during the day - I'm working from home for now and if I forget to put it on in the evening, I can just make it up for it during the day. Can't do that with tret, and it's a nicer formula too...

[MsBritishwoman]

Great stuff...I'm now going to use my retenoids in the ☀️ summer! You always bring great content with great humour! Enjoy your videos! Keep em coming

[anglee]

Love your channel and have learned so much about taking care of my skin. Could you do a deep dive into hydroquinone for hyperpigmentation? Myths, realities, pulse method, drawbacks, etc. Also, how to use it with tretinoin and azelaic acid or how to use it within your routine?

[scizard]

I love your channel so much, keep up the good work ❤️👍

[eiwansk]

I've been using that Kate Sommerville one for about a year and LOVE it. I still use that around my eyes and tretinoin on the rest of my face.

[Dr.LindsayOgle]

Thanks to you I am getting compliments on my skin for the first time in my life! I think retinols and chemical exfoliants have helped the most - so thank you!! I am so curious to learn about supplements/nutrition for hair/skin/nails!

[yvetteshelton]

Please talk about combinations in acids. I would love to hear your educated recommendations. Thank you, Yvette

[pcssc]

I love your energy❗️ (it’s so NYC😉)
I’m a big fan of Skinceuticals. Been using their retinols, AGE eye cream and CE serum with positive results (so people have told me). Thanks so much for all your videos/information 💖 and of course you. 🥰
