Ever wanted to get a tan? That’s probably all of us at some point. We’re all probably aware of the health risks of staying too long in the sun too. So, many people resort to tanning beds (AKA “the safer option”). Newsflash: they’re not. Tannin
Caught early, skin cancer is highly treatable. This is why – as a dermatologist – I want you to understand how to monitor changes that might occur on your skin. Of course, prevention (AKA proper sunscreen and sun-protective clothing application
If you’re wearing sunscreen every day (which I’m sure you do, Superwoman!), then you’re already following the number-one rule for sun protection. The 2nd rule – proper re-application – is just as important, however. See, friction, heat, sweat,
Did-you-know that most people only apply half of the sunscreen amount they need? Yikes! On top of not reapplying sunscreen, many don’t even apply the right amount. This gives us a picture of how much (or how little) sun protection many people a
Treatment for rosacea may seem accessible (with the plethora of products targeted at it in the market) BUT beware: some may exacerbate symptoms instead of helping you. The key is finding just the right ones. With just the right ingredients. So
Does your face often look flushed? Red? Not acne-inflamed red BUT you can see swollen pus-filled bumps, you feel a burning sensation, your blood vessels are visible – if these symptoms manifest on your face, then you could have Rosacea. For Ap
Have you heard about what happened at the Oscars? Yeah, I know it’s tiring for you now BUT we’re not focusing on the gossip – as your go-to dermatologist, I feel the need to bring awareness on the topic of hair loss, i.e. Alopecia and its subty
I know you read the ingredients list of each skincare product before you try them – if you’ve been listening to this show, I’m sure you do. For those with sensitive skin, however, ingredients are just one of the things you should look for befor
Do you experience these? Redness, dryness, inflammation, burning, itching, and stinging. If you do (on a regular basis), then you probably have sensitive skin. You probably also know the pain of having a limited set of choices for skincare prod
Admit it, when you were in your early 20’s, you barely thought about the importance of skincare. I’m guilty of this too. If you’re not – kudos to you! Skincare for many in their early 20’s is probably the 34524th task in their to-do list AFTER
Great power comes with great responsibility. If you feel powerful with make-up and wear it daily, you have a responsibility to your skin to remove your make-up at night. This may sound too dramatic but trust me, the consequences of not removing
What makes an incredible cleanser? I hope “something that gives me a squeaky clean feel” didn’t come to mind! A good cleanser gets rid of dirt, grime, oil, and make-up while disrupting your skin barrier as little as possible. No dry feeling. No
NEWS FLASH: Cleansers are the most underrated component of The Skin Success Framework. I get it – they don’t sound fancy like retinoids or vitamin C serums. On top of that, many lack real understanding around the mechanics of cleansing. Which
On a scale of 1-10, how important is cleansing for you? My beauty, you know I’m a generally flexible person (I recommend both medical-grade and budget-friendly drugstore products, after all!) BUT if your answer is less than 10 then we have a lo
Is your lip balm good enough? Does it contain the best active ingredients that serve your lips? If you had to think twice, don’t worry – this episode was made for YOU! Like with skincare, your lip care tools are only as good as their ingredient
Besides wearing lip balm, how do you take care of your lips? If that question caught you off guard, then it’s time we discuss lip care. As with the neck, care for the lips is also often overlooked BUT that ends now (if you have been moisturizin
Does it scare you to up your retinol game? Or maybe you haven’t even started using retinol because you think you can’t handle it. As founded as these fears are – because retinol does burn or irritate your skin (at first) – there are things that
Skincare isn’t all there is to self-care. What your skin gets from the inside is just as (or more) important than what you put on the outside. In this healthy skin journey, we’ve got work to do on the lifestyle level. Believe me, my beauties, i
Having strong healthy nails undoubtedly feels empowering. So why do many people abuse them? I’m not just referring to nail-biting or UV nail lamps. There are subtler ways many people hurt their nails for the long term. Today, I’m sharing with y
What’s your new year’s resolution? I know new year’s resolutions can seem daunting and that’s why oftentimes, people drop them. BUT we shouldn’t stick with the stigma – let’s simply start with realistic, totally doable goals. Like these 3 skinc
How’s your 2021? Have you given time to look back on the past 12 months yet? Amidst the holiday rush, it’s integral to slow down and look through everything the year has given us. Which is why before the year ends, I’d like to share with you t
Do you feel like your breakouts increase around after Thanksgiving? It’s like your pimples can feel the holiday rush! I know, holiday breakouts are no fun (at all) with your growing opportunities for social interaction and to-do list. Don’t wor
As fun (and totally acceptable) it is to go and try out different skincare products, it’s best to set boundaries on what you introduce to your skin. The packaging, the marketing, and a product’s popularity may sometimes entice you – despite kno
I’ve always told you that good skincare doesn’t have to break the bank. Remember what good skincare really is? That’s right – consistent and done with the right ingredients. Price (or brand name) doesn’t always correlate with product efficacy.
You know that sense of overwhelm you get by just stepping into a drugstore – with the sheer variety of Cleansers, Moisturizers, and other products in there? It’s time to clear that up. I’m not here to tell you exactly what to buy BUT I’m here t
