Just found your channel, I love it. Thank you for sharing everything with so much simplicity.

Thank you very much indeed. I never saw it mentioned before, Bepanthen ointment is a life saving lip balm to me. It is an oil in water emulsion and gives me a better relief than grease-only products. Love it on my face, too.

I just ordered 2 of the products you mentioned. I love ur videos. to the point and informative.

5% urea moisturizer is essential for me for my face. My face gets flaky/scaly/dry if i don't use it. My face becomes baby smooth and feels hydrated with 5% urea cream! I just use any generic brancd, sometimes even the eucerin hand cream (it has 5% urea). works for me!

You explain really well. Love your videos, man.

Thank you for the time stamps.

Hi Dr Syed! Really happy to see you upload another video after finding you from Ali! I'm currently doing his KZreadr course and learning lots! Really loved the comedy skits halfway through too :) I think more B roll would really do well for your videos besides them being really really valuable to viewers!

Thanks so much for the comment and feedback, Archer! Great to see a fellow PTYA member! I totally agree with the B roll part, I noticed that I had quite a lot in the second half of the video, but almost none in the first half, and it really felt a bit one dimensional to me in retrospect! Epiduo is great! Funnily enough, both Epiduo and Differin gel contain 0.1% adapalene in them, so you're totally fine sticking with that! The added benzoyl peroxide can make it a bit more irritating to some people's skin, but if it's not a problem for you then Epiduo is great too!

Loved the video🤩 informative, fun, and straight to the point!! Looking forward to watching your upcoming uploads! I have two questions; What is the difference between the differin gel and the differin ointment? And can you use it in the same skincare routine with BHAs?

@usamasyed

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks so much for the wonderful feedback! In response to your questions: 1) With every type of skin targeting medicine, the 'vehicle' for the active ingredient can be varied. These vehicles vary depending on their comparative oil/water contents, and can also affect the strength of the medication on your skin. From 'wateriest' to 'greasiest' it goes: solution, gel, lotion, cream, ointment. So a Differin ointment would feel thicker and greasier than a gel, but would feel even stronger on your skin! (This is all a spoiler for a video I'll be doing in the future about this exact topic, but now you've got the inside scoop!) We don't have Differin ointment available near us, so I've never come across it! 2) You certainly can incorporate both of these types of products in a skincare routine! The most common BHAs my patients use are salicylic acid, and I recommend that they use their BHA product in the morning, and the retinoid product in the evening. Bear in mind, though, that both of these ingredients can be drying and irritating to the skin, so I recommend working SLOWLY towards having them both in the routine, not all at once!

I just found out about Differin Gel. My doctor, general practitioner, gave me a prescription for tretinoin a few years ago. Because I didn’t have acne, she couldn’t get insurance to cover it. My skin at age 56 looks as thin and crepey as a 90 year olds. I wanted it to help build collagen and elastin back up. It was $200 for one 5ml tube. That is not a sustainable cost for me. I’ve heard great things from derms on youtube about this product. I just started it three days ago, so I’m hopeful it’s a treasure.

Hey! How do you use these products in a daily routine? I've never done a skin care routine and don't really know when or how often to use any of these.

Suffered from eczema on my upper bsck for years and after seeing 3 Canadian dernatologists prescribing to me a cortisone cream that aggravated my skin conditions but the dermatologists wiuld not listen to what i was saying assuning i am simply an idiot...i had to go back to my country, visit a real dermatologist (she didn't had her clinic full of cosmetic creams and serums from la Roche Posay), the first time i saw her she instructed me to come back to her after i wash myself with s fragrance free soap and no use if anything on my skin, so on ny second time she actually took her wooden sticks and a magnifier to check my eczema. one of the Canadian dermatologist checked my back from 2.5 metres away, the 2 others close enough but it took them less than 30 seconds. Her diagnostic was to only use fragrance free soap and use olive oil to moisture my back while it is wet. I stumbled iver a documentary...and i ended up using bkack soap and honey (wild real honey) on my back. And since then honey is my go to treatment fir any skin issues including the herpes (cold sore) on my lips as well as any burns (fire burns as well as sun burns). For the cold soare though, i need to intervene as soon as i feel the first itching before the cold sore erupts. Not sure hiw much did i saved using honey but i am pretty sure few thousands for a decade now.
