Hope you can also discuss some ingredients such as urea, propolis and rice ferment.. Thank you Dr. Idriss and much love from the Philippines! 💞

Please do a laser deep dive. Specifically ones that address redness. Can't wait for your brand release. I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of things to love in there.

The pink eyeshadow looks gorgeous on you Shereene!!!

So… does it make me weird that I love that you’re stressed out this morning??? And that sometimes your kids come in??? AND that you husband is always in and out of the video?!? I just think it’s so fun that you’re a NORMAL person!!! And I thank you for sharing your life, your journey, and your immense knowledge with us <3

I'm big into Korean beauty and love Centella, it's a prime ingredient in korean products, it's in like almost everything. I always loved the Purito and Cosrx centella products, and also VT cosmetics. I have dry and sensitive skin so Centella saves my skin especially in winter. The Benton centella sheet masks are also a skin saviour for me when my skin feels irritated, they calm everything down so well

I absolutely adore centella asiatica. It really a favorite of mine. I have an combination skin and inflamatory acne prone but also extremely reactive and sensitive, and atm I deal with redness and PIE…. :/ and i feel everytime i do not use centella asiatica based products I can feel a difference in my skin. My skin benefits SO much of it. I am actually using the laneige sleeping mask tonight and the cicaplast cream and my skin feels so soft. Centella deserves a lot of praise and much more in the western world! I feel it can benefit many many skin types really.

Your hair looks spectacular and love love love the Easter themed color makeup. Pretty spring look! I have been following your drug store cleanser, serum, sunscreen recommendations and already seeing such an improvement on my 50+ age skin. I cannot thank you enough for the quality content you provide. Shukran Habibti!

You are beautiful dr.idris not just blooming in the outside but generous in the inside. Thank you for all the facts and truth about skin care and I am grateful for all your inputs. Thank you

[kathysharp]

Thanks for providing yet another humorous and educational video despite your difficult morning. I hope your day/week improves.

[asepdianml]

What a great buzz. Further please going deep dive into collagen (in topical skincare products). Thx in adv!

[davidle]

It should be noted that CICA doesn't always refer to centella asiatica - cica also just means "healing." The Avene Cicalfate Cream actually doesn't contain ANY centella in it.

Your purple eyeshadow and bright lip looks so chic and editorial!! 💓

I just came across you yesterday, have binged watched you since then. I have learnt so so soooo much…
Looking at doing a skin care course now and devoting the rest of my life to skin care. I have suffered severe dermatitis on my hands since being a barista in my 20’s 😭
Thank yoooou…Jess, New Zealand

I have mature skin that tends to get dehydrated very easily.... especially when using strong actives. I JUST purchased the La Roche-Posay Cica Balm B5 this month. My skin loves it, although I wish it was sold is a larger tube.At night, I often mix it with Aquaphor for a seriously strong occlusive topper on my skin before bed!

[kdjec]

You just gave me a eureka moment, my partner has psoriasis and the Dr.Jart ones I will surely purchase. Thank you so much and for all you do to give us a quality content every saturday. I appreciate you!

you look so beautiful. i don't know you and you don't know me but because we have the phenomena youtube i can tell you that. but besides beautiful you bring information on skincare is such a delightful way. i remember a few months ago when you were able to share starting your own clinic and how emotional you got. you gave such heartfelt encouragement to all of us about your journey fighting the negativity surrounding your career up to that point and pushing through with courage and encouragement from those who know and love you. it shows and you continue to be inspiring. thank you....
