I’ve been using glycolic acid for 10 years, daily. Everyone tells me my skin is thick and young and healthy. I agree!

I wish I started watching your videos YEARS ago. It sure would have saved me so much money and dissapointment. Thank you for teaching me that expensive does not necessarily mean better and that you can use different brands in your routine. You are THE best
I followed your advice and got some glycolic acid serum, and after just TWO uses, my scars have faded SO MUCH! I've been on tret for about 4 months and finally cleared most of my breakouts but now I'm working on the scars and I never knew glycolic would work so fast. I was about to lose hope after the tret cleared my face but I still had a lot of uneven tone. I cannot wait to see long term results. Thank YOU for sharing your knowledge. I'd stay ugly if it weren't for you lol

I’m buying glycolic acid today! I’ve been watching you for a few months, trying to put together a skin care routine suited for my skin. You’ve provided the best advice! Today, this two year old video pops up and suddenly the whole idea of why to use glycolic acid clicked in my brain! Thanks so much Dr Idriss!
Glycolic helped me with my bumpy skin. I used a kaya texture corrector. It really really helped my skin

May I ask how did you use it? My skin right now has a bunch of texture
Please, more quick explanations like this 🙌🏻 all the different types/cats of acids, ceramides, niacinamine,… I like to use products formulated as simple as possible, so I can manage them accordingly to the current climate (live where the most extreme climate change between seasons) and sun exposure.
Can you please upload full video?
I didn't think I could use it until I saw your video a couple of months ago. You explained very well how to use it and why, what to look out for ++. I decided to try and it really helped my skin. So far it's amazing!
If you have sensitive skin or skin of color you might want to avoid glycolic acid, or stay at 5% or less glycolic acid. I prefer a PHA chemical exfoliating serum, which is not as irritating as AHA's glycolic or even mandelic acid especially for my sensitive skin. PHA's are very effective chemical exfoliants and antioxidants. I use the natrium brand if anyone wants to know.💓

I'm thinking of incorporating glycolic acid in my face wash- cuz it would be less harsh than a serum right?
Please do some videos about hyaluronic acid free skin care. Its so hard to have a full routine and then need to change up products while trying to avoid hyaluronic acid which irritates my skin. Finding a SPF 50 without it tinted or not is damn near impossible

for pores and sebum use niacinamide 5% serum. the ordinary's niacinamide is good too, but it's 10% which can be irritating for some skin. you can dilute it by mixing few drops in your palm along with your moisturizer. always apply niacinamide on slightly damp face. I would also suggest you to use glycolic acid, it is the only skin care product which has shown me the fastest results compared to vitamin c, tretinoin, azelaic acid, niacinamide, alpha arbutin, tranexamic acid. just after 2 usages my skin felt so smooth and soft. I am yet to see it's results on my hyperpigmentation. always remember how you use the product matters a lot. just once a week of glycolic acid preferably cream version usage at night is enough. try to incorporate tretinoin/differin in your skincare as well. it will make your skin young and youthful...the best thing about niacinamide is that it will calm your skin too and can be paired with both tretinoin and glycolic acid. hope it helps. hope it helps
I use glycolic acid toner by Loreal. Whatcan I layer it with. I am pretty confused. One page said vitamine C ok, other one it is not ok to use together. The same with niacimine

Depends are you using the butt paste to face baste or are you just using zinc oxide? Also is it a leave on glycolic or a wash off glycolic or a toner? Bc all that matters If you are face basting and it’s a leave on then no bc you are gonna make the ingredients penetrate deeper just like you shouldn’t face baste after retinol/retin-a Hope that helped a little

Segun e aprendido de los dermatologos, para la hiperpigmentacion (de los productos cosméticos) el #1 es la vit C 15 % en las mañanas antes del bloqueador solar. Si no se tolera , usar la niacinamida . En las noches ,el retinol .
