Good video. Do not agree with 11:13. it is wrong to say people can just clean their face with water...noONE can clean their face with only water, even someone who hasnt been out the entire day, here is why..the oil produced by the skin can trap dust, bacteria and other polutants that turn into free radicals elements that damage the skin cells. It is paramount to clean your skin properly and sofly to avoid any skin barrier damage. Besides that, good video. Cheers

How about those that live in humid countries like the pacific? It’s the summer season for us here and the humidity is beyond anything.

@@Emz1738. I think you have to tell your skin type, what moisturizer you are using....Moisturizer are meant to keep moisture in your skin...if the air is humid, there is already moisture available. It is rather when the air is dry that you need to seal the moist inside

Another important thing to mention is that your skin is only going to be as healthy as you are. A perfect skincare routine can’t take the place of getting enough sleep, eating a decent diet and taking care of your mental health. You really need both.

To sum it up, the four simple rules are: Rule 1 - Moisturize twice a day. - Find moisturizer that rehydrates skin, replaces natural fats and proteins, and keeps the skin barrier intact. Rule 2 - Use a sunscreen every day - Use sunscreen that's a broad spectrum. Rule 3 - Use a retinoid - Retinoids reduce wrinkles, reduce uneven pigmentation, and make our skin cells regenerate faster. Rule 4 - Use a cleanser - Cleanser helps remove excess oils.

Really great video that I sent to my daughters. I have been promising them to write up my skincare routine bc I am 64 and have wonderful, clear even-toned skin and people are often giving me compliments and my female friends of the same age have asked me what I do. But as you show so well in your videos, if you have not been protecting your skin from the sun since you were young, well the sun damage at 50 years of age is obvious. I moved to the Gold Coast, Australia when I was 20 and that’s when I saw what the sun did to your skin. The women all wanted a deep tan but they had crocodile skin when they were older! I have my crinkly eye wrinkles (my smile lines) when I laugh but that’s character. I can only agree: regular, continual skincare with these products (I also use Vitamin C serums) WORKS!

I've quite literally researched skin care for like 2 months to create the perfect and most minimal skin care for myself and you just summarized it all in 1 video. WHERE WERE YOU 2 MONTHS AGO?!? Edit: Vitamin C (in the form of L-ascorbic acid) is also a great addition to skin care especially in combination with a retinoid treatment. By combination I don't mean mixing the two, I mean using vitamin c in the morning and retinoid at night or vitamin c one day and retinoid the other

One thing to note about skincare is that the effects are often never immediate. Sometimes you won’t even notice the changes until several months later! Last year I had a terrible breakout which caused hyperpigmentation, pimples and milia. After doing much research, I’ve finally narrowed down the perfect skincare for my individual needs. Despite my diligence, I still didn’t see my hyperpigmentation fade until 4-6 months later. Consistency and diligence is key and you cannot skip a day or two just because you’re tired. If you keep at it, you will eventually end up seeing the results you’ve wanted.

I just want to say, I’ve battled with acne and bad skin my entire life, spending thousands on dermatologists and their expensive products. The routine and advice in this video has turned my skin around in 1 week. I’m using tretinoin 0.5% at night and if I see my skin start to flake then I don’t use it the following day.

I suggest adding a hydrating toner to add more moisture if the flaking still persists after a long period of time of using tretinoin. Toner is like electrolytes, you don't need it on a regular basis but when you're dehydrated, it really helps gain the moisture back in at the rate that moisturizer can't do. I have acne-prone skin and the Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner has improved the dryness a lot since I started using tretinoin, and if I want, I'll use not just 1, but 2, 3 layers if I feel like my skin is still dry. Then I'll follow with my moisturizer!

He tells them to 'clean your room' and they eat this stuff up but these men have mother's that no doubt have been saying the same since they were little boys. Point being, it's sad that words have more weight to a man when it comes from another man.

@@ericae.6547 I mean, the same can be said about women. Not saying you're wrong, but advice given to women by men are often ignored unless a prominent female influencer, artist etc says the same thing. People are just more likely to listen to people they identify with. A man identifies more with another man, so he'll be more inclined to take their advice. Same with women.

I dont know watching skincare thingy from Ali is so interesting to listen with a sourceful reference from a real dermatologist and journal. Thanks for making this really amazing

Even though I'm a year late to the party, The Ordinary products are ones I will firmly stand by and recommend forever, all their stuff has simple packaging that lists the exact ingredients in each product on the front and not much else. I pretty much exclusively use The Ordinary now as they're the best skincare brand I've ever found

I love this video style! 😍 combining medical knowledge with leading a happier, healthier life AND inviting an expert dermatologist for their opinion. The editing, animations and illustrations are also top notch. I seriously didn't think that an Ali Abdaal video titled "My Productive Skincare Routine" would be one of my favourites!

I love the format of SUMMARY FIRST then you detail it out. If I don't get the quick summary I just see the chapter names or move on to another video lol. Ali really respects our time. Love this format, and I always watch his videos fully anyways.

Great video! I like this concept of boiling it down to the basics. I've loved Cerave cleanser and moisturizer. Because even though I'm very crunchy I saw dermatologists and skin care specialists pointing out how low-risk of irritation Cerave products are and convenient and affordable enough at drugstore. Many crunchy products have essential oils which can be irritating. A step that could be worth adding at least for people who sweat or use sunscreen and/or makeup is double-cleansing. This very popular method is still simple. It just means before the cleanser cleansing with some oil. I use simply one ingredient - jojoba oil. If someone really wanted to be sure they are cleansed after the double cleanser (for example if they wear very heavy makeup), they may want a toner. Also for people (of any gender) who shave, wax, or sugar their faces - some before/during/after care products may be useful such as pre-shave oil, shave cream, something soothing.

I completely agree with everything mentioned in the video. In addition, if you care to have one more active ingredient, add Vitamin C to your AM routine, before putting on moisturizer. Helps brighten your skin and minimize dark spots.

Yay! I’m a skincare junkie so it’s so nice to see people take care of their skin with the right products. ❤️

@@suhaib221b4 I would recommend to go to a dermatologist. Considering your age the acne could be because of hormones and therefore you may not see improvement from skincare products because it's the hormones that cause it. A prescribed topical cream or medication may help. Hope this helps and remember that it will get better!

@@suhaib221b4 hey probably a little late .but if your acne is something like red dots which bleeds ,its cystic so probably hormones or something else which needs to be internally fixed and skincare alone won't fix it . If its just white flaky little dots then probably try an antibiotic called azithromycin. I had suddenly developed such acne and skincare products made my skin more sensitive and irritated so be careful . Only antibiotics worked But acne differs for everyone so it's better to first know what kind of acne you have and go see w dermatologist.

thank you so much for this video. I have been so overwelmed with infos on this topic lately you really put it into perspective. Also Id highly enjoy a summary in ther same style on how to fix ones hair (and I dont mean make it look nice but actually what to use - how - what kind of products and by what criteria) to actually make it be healthy :)

I’ve been waiting for this since you mentioned it in ptya. Loved the depth of knowledge, the research, and the amount of effort you put into making it all so coherent.

I'm a man and my routine's got an extra step or 2. Morning: Cleanser + toner + moisturising sunscreen Evening: Cleanser + toner + serum (vit C, peptide, hyaluronic acid on alternate days) + gel-cream moisturiser. Retinol serum twice a week. As a 40 yo Asian man, people usually think I'm 28 and a good skincare regimen accounts for ~10% of the reasons why.

Okay. You had me until the cleanser part. I think most dermatologists would agree on the fact that cleansing your skin is a very important step in any skincare regimen; the thing is… yes you’d probably could get away without cleansing your skin in the morning but when it comes to the evening it is absolutely recommended to wash your face ‘cause splashing water on your face won’t get off all the dirt, sweat, pollution and even sunscreen (weather if it is a water resistant sunscreen or not) that is left on your face at the end of the day. If you leave all of those things on your face and then apply other products on top of them and then lock them up with a moisturizer, you’re very likely to develop acne and as a result of this post inflammatory hyperpigmentation and I think it goes without saying that none of the things you apply on your face won’t be doing much which is the opposite of what you’re looking for when engaging on a skincare regimen. So yes, cleansing is a important step on any skincare routine, at least when it comes to the evening. But I enjoyed your vid, the most part of it.

I recently went to a marriage talk recently and the speaker was talking about how women “crave masculinity” and said “because I mean c’mon ladies, let’s be real - how into a guy would you be and how would you feel if you went out and the guy starts talking to you about his skincare routine?” I just said “…I would be impressed!”

wow...i started skin care like 9 months ago..and i developed every step you described in this vid by myself...Thank you for the information😃

Love how he just goes to the point 🔥🔥🔥🔥

My skin routine entails as follows: I wash my face and neck with regular shampoo and the rest of my body with “Lever” or “Irish Spring” soap. Then I wear a moisturizing, vitamin infused face mask for about fifteen minutes. After that, I apply a toner (not very often, but I’m trying to make it a daily routine). The brand is “Klairs”, and I got the bottle a few years ago when searching for Korean facial products. Then I just slather on the Vaseline and once that is well absorbed into the skin, I apply my CeraVe sunscreen to both face and neck. I’m looking into retinols. I’m 32.5 and my skin looks great!! :)

If you use a sunscreen, a cleanser is definitely not optional. Double cleansing is actually the way to go if you want to get the SPF off of your face as much as possible. Nice video though 👍🏻

@@Onodera05 Well actually a lot of people say that you need to use two different types of clensers when you are clensing your face. Double clense is the fancy term for that. I think the koreans bought that in. The idea is that when we are wearing sunscreen and make up blah blah etc etc there are so much of dirt, grim and oil in our skin. A normal clenser usually removes everything which is soluble in water but aparently there are also more dirt and stuff like oil which is soluble only in oil so you need something which can pick up these oil as well. So for that people tend to use micellar water or an oil based clensers. Thats it but when we are not wearing any make up and just some sunscreen i guess just clensing with a clenser is fine. Like try clensing with your clenser and then whipe your face with a white towel. If you still find dirt you probbaly need to use the double clense else you are fine. I am fine with clensing just one. I feel this is just some marketting trend. For light make up like lipstick, eye liner and mascara maybe some concealer i guess micellar water would do
