I don’t believe you 👍
It is true. I’ve had oily skin my whole life. I’m 72 and have NO WRINKLES. MY OILY SKIN MADE ME BEAUTIFUL IN OLD AGE
You’re not even listening to what she just said you said that you had oily skin your entire life and you have no wrinkles whatsoever she just said that sebum does not moisturize your skin and it’s not going to help you get rid of your comment is saying what she saying is not you’re saying that sebum and oil is going to hydrate your skin and keep you from getting wrinkles she’s saying no it’s not going to hydrate you and it’s not going to stop you from getting wrinkles
@@JohnFEELS what??
If you have good skin at 72 it’s probably because your skin hasn’t sustained a high degree of sun damage.
It’s more likely a combination of genetics and sun protection.
@@RachelJane101If science could talk, it would say “bingo.” That giant, radioactive star that we orbit around ain’t doing our skin any favors apart from aiding in vitamin D production (which the skin still can do with sunscreen). Those of us with fair skin are more efficient at doing that (the one good thing to come of it).
You are wrong. I’m 71 and I’ve had oily skin my whole life. My skin is beautiful and not one wrinkle because of my oils
It could be different for different people, perhaps! It’s so great that oils help your skin, but maybe it’s rarer amongst common findings. Hmm, I don’t know!
Yeah, science is wrong! Maria over here has the real facts! Let’s just get rid of textbooks and peer reviewed medical journals and listen to what Maria has to say instead!!
That’s a rather bold statement to make to someone who has a doctorates degree in skin health and decades of experience. She didn’t say that ALL oily skin is dehydrated. She said that oily skin isn’t necessarily moisturized. At your age, I’d think your listening compression skills and tact would be a little more refined.
@@Jess-737 Sorry to be pedantic, but I’m gonna correct one thing. She doesn’t have her doctorate in skin health. She has her doctorate in medicine and is a physician, and her degree is a MD. She’s also a FAAD. All physicians go through the same courses in medical school (with some more options of courses in the later semesters), it’s just a matter of what they choose to do for their residency that determines their specialty (or lack thereof). Like most physicians, you can see some of her qualifications online.
You sure like to brag about yourself…
I’m sebum is fine with keeping your skin moisturized but you know you still have to moisturize though you just have to work with your skin and moisturize properly because baby do all that stuff that they tell you to do to get rid of excess oil and you’ll see a huge difference and you’ll be wishing your oil back
Actually, that’s a misconception, which Dr. Dray went over in a video: children produce virtually no sebum, and they don’t have dry skin (usually), so sebum isn’t a factor in how hydrated skin is. I believe she said it’s the urea in skin (sweat) that keeps it hydrated. Sebum does allow skin to be more elastic, I believe, as it ages
Old, harsh, masculine, stale-female, not pretry, bossy….
You sound like a lovely level-headed person 😂😂
You sound like a hater
Where’s your sweet soft femininity?
It doesn’t have to be this way, Emma..
(ETA – Thanks for the view and engagement )
Wow- such hate. You have a cold heart :0
The most ‘masculine’ women are always admonishing other women for not hitting into their beauty standards. 🙄
Totally true I have very oily skin and yet my skin still is flaky and looks dry under it, once I actually started adding moisturizer because I figured I’m oily why do I need it did my oil production calm down to something more normal skinned
I have dry skin that’s oily. Feels very unfair ☹️
Same lol
Very true lol im oily and dry as heck 😂
Straighten them out Dray!!!!
Yess
Yep oily skin here all my life and I have flaking and dryness in spots. Can we just say – although we appreciate the oil glands we don’t need excess where it’s a full time job managing it.
True. I’m oily and dry at the same time. Horrible combination
YESS👏 I used to have such an greasy oily t zone and flakey dry jaw/chin 😭😭
You are looking beautiful, Dr Dray!
I’m an oily drought 😅
Ima use that now lol
too much oily. cleansing more😀
bioderma atoderm is good moustrizer for dry skin or is there any alternative
Just want to ask u if benzoyl peroxide soap is good for acne prone oily skin followed by hyaluronic acid mosturizer?
And the more you try to wash etc and dry out the skin, the more it will produce sebum and make you look more oily. There has to be a balance
