I’ve been searching for years for the perfect sunscreen that I actually enjoy applying. This year I discovered the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella SPF and Oh boy I am in love. I will never go back to American sunscreens. Thanks Dr. Dray!
Nothing beats petroleum jelly dual action (both protects and promotes healing) on the skin 😊❤ best ingredient/product ever and let the others speak for themselves 😂. It just works ❤. A good pillow is key for a good and efficient sleep 😊. Wonderful products thanks for sharing doctor Andrea.
I won’t be without my Sleep and Glow. I’ve been using it for 3 years and don’t plan to ever stop. I’ll be 56 soon and it’s great because as we get older sleeping on a bad pillow not only causes wrinkles, but can also cause creasing in the skin that takes longer to go away after we wake. I love it, so worth the price!
It has made a huge difference for me too
Love this! This has been my year to start taking care of my skin (I’m 60! 😂), and I could not have done it well without this channel. There are soooooo many choices on store shelves, and I could not have made good decisions without the information and recommendations from the Dray ™️. Thank you. 🧴💧🪞
Agree Dr Dray! My friends all buy DRMTGLY Tinted after I watched you apply it and instantly began to glow. I’ve tried and liked other tinted SPF, BB, CC ect and this weekend we are doing our Summer Must Haves…Hado Labo blue pot is my go to sunscreen.
I tried the Gold Bond Retinol after you mentioned it a while back. It’s so great for smoothing body issues like crepe skin on knees and elbows. It can be a bit too much if your skin is smooth…one of my elbows has been peeling for a couple weeks after using it for a few days straight. Love your recommendations
Tbh, I wasn’t sure there was enough retinol to matter, I am glad to know that yes, it’s a “real retinol” product! Their pure moisture or crepe smoothing formulas might be perfect for you. I have 4 different Gold Bond creams lol, I am a but obsessed
Hi Dr. Dray! Again, you overwhelm me with your knowledge and recommendations, which I appreciate we much. I compare your informative channel with an office visit…. I would leave the Dr’s office with 11,000 bits of info … Your presentations are absolutely the greatest. AND you’re as cute as can be. You are no frills, you get to the point and I have to listen intently to make sure I don’t miss anything, but I constantly replay your videos. I LOVE your enthusiasm and energy.❤

Thank you for teaching me to get my head on right re: petrolatum. Using it & the gold bond lineup generously (i live in the northern us great plains – dryyyyyyy & windy & extremely cold) has transformed my skin in 18 months. Niacinamide & squalane too, but comparing impact per dollar spent, petrolatum and urea are the absolute holy grail gold star winners. Please dont let them give urea a better name lol, i swear it keeps prices down 😂
Can you tell me about what you mean?
Urea as an ingredient is very economical since it’s easy to mass manufacture and it has been around for decades. I formulate skin care products and I know per kg they’re really cheap. Urea is mostly used for body care products as it’s strongly exfoliant and I wouldn’t use it on face. It’s good for cracked feet, knees and elbows, it exfoliates and moisturizes with the help of water to hydrate. For face there are other better options.
Thank you as always Dr Dray for all your well put together, factual information. Maelove has come out with a new serum that I would love your thoughts (possibly a new video idea)…it’s the Peptide Squad one. Everyone seems to be jumping on the copper peptide bandwagon, and would appreciate your thoughts on this one.
That sounds like something that would be up Penn Smith Skincare’s alley. She loves copper peptides and has been touting them for long time.
I was going to ask for same! I think Maelove does excellent products and even with sensitive skin, I have been able to use their Vitamin C for several yrs., now. I would really like to see reviews on the peptide; I have been using the PCA exlinea pro serum but looking for more economical alternative.
BoJ is still my go to sunscreen. I’ve tried a ton of Korean brand sunscreens, but I find myself always going back to it. It’s fast absorbing, moisturising and also gives you a smooth finish. Before BoJ, I enjoyed using Neutrogena.
Dr Dray, I credit you for the sunscreen I use everyday, the Kroger Shimmer hydrating sunscreen SPF 40. I love it! Thank you for introducing it to me!!
I love my sleep & glow pillow, i got it sent over to Scotland from the us after you recommended it a few years back along with lots of skin care products that have been fab! Thank you for everything you do you are truly appreciated ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve been using DRMTLGY Physical Tinted Moisturizer, SPF 44, for a couple of years now. It is water resistant for up to 30m. I have tried a couple of other tinted moisturizers with SPF such as Australian Gold SPF 50 and Neutrogena’s Mineral UV Tint Face Liquid SPF30, Tinted Sunscreen. The Australian Gold tinted sunscreen was a little thick and the tint too dark. Neutrogena sunscreen is more liquid which I don’t mind, but the tint color didn’t look good on me, and it’s water resistance is not that great. It’s also in a squeeze bottle which is messy. I keep repurchasing DRMTLGY because it blends on my face nicely, has SPF 44, is in a nice dispenser, and is a good base for my other make-up. I prefer the DRMTLGY SPF 44 to the SPF 46 version. The SPF 46 made my face look too shiny. Looking forward to your best of 2023 video. 😊
Australian Gold SPF 50 for the win! It’s a great base layer for a light dust-and-buff layer of mineral powder foundation. I almost forget about my rosacea! Thanks for the video – we’re so lucky to have you!
The DRMTLGY sunscreen smell really is addictive over time. Such a wonderful product. However since returning from the UK last month, I’ve been using LaRoche-Posay and Ultra Violette which contain the newer generation UV filters unavailable in the US (thanks FDA). They are soooo nice.
The sunscreen i keep using again and again is Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Gel pump size bottle. I really don’t stand putting more than 3 products on my skin day or night. I am quite surprised after reading all the rants about the 2023 formulation, how people turned to dislike it, but it turned out very much pleasant to use, probably better than the original formula where it was a bit drying. The gold gel version though, NO, too shiny and sting eyes due to polysilicone-15.

My mom has always been a huge believer in the power of Vaseline. Glad to see it’s Dr Dray approved.
Hi Dr Dray, I liked this product review episode. Thanks so much. I formulate skin care products and make some of my own products so I found your review quite useful from trying other people’s products based on ingredients. I usually read a list of ingredients written on the back before trying other people’s products. I also didn’t like petroleum based products before (as it’s from crude oil) but I bought petroleum based lip balm yesterday (pure white vaseline lip balm for babies) after listening to your reviews as I have been suffering from allergies a lot and didn’t know what else to use. I quite like petroleum jelly lip balm but only the thing is there’s not enough staying power. I think I’m going to make my own lip balm using petroleum jelly and other hardening waxes and refined plant oils for my allergy suffering lips. Petroleum jelly is also great as eye cream at night in dry winter time I found.
I didn’t expect myself to buy something pricey again soon after watching this video but that pillow is just one thing I couldn’t miss! And I’m glad you’re the one recommending it which means I can trust that brand. I’ve been using an orthopedic pillow for years now and while it has completely removed any neck or shoulder pain when I sleep, I still struggle with positioning when sleeping on the side. Since I don’t want to get creases and wrinkles on my face and have any skincare products rub on the pillowcase, I always sleep on the very edge of the pillow. The only time I make full use of the center part of the pillow is when I lay on my back. Finally I can get a pillow that has the shape I badly need for side sleeping. ❤❤
