Question - I use the regular (all skinbetter science) alto, with Even Serum and Mystro Serum and their Even Tone sunscreen and I turn orange I am thinking it is the vitamin c reacting weirdly with my skin Any thoughts? Comment from : Sierra Sturt

Thank you for sharing ! 💕💕💕 Comment from : Alicia Nason

Each brand has propriety active like TFC8 (AB), seaweed (La Mer), colloidal platinum (la prairie platinum rare) of course their own formulations Why does dermatologist like to treat all these as myth? I am just curious, does it mean they are fake science and selling dreams like Disney? Comment from : Mike Gan

I'd love to see a video comparing similar products from medical grade skincare brands (Obagi, Alastin, EltaMD, Skinbetter, Skinmedica, Skinceuticals, etc)!

Is the Skinmedica TNS and Alastin product similar or should we try to have both? I used the original TNS for a few years and honestly I didn’t notice anything I have always , since my early 20 s been obsessive about skincare & quality products/ sun avoid I’m 46 Main thing was I couldn’t figure out where to fit it in! It didn’t layer well Pilled under stuff and over , felt like it just sat on top I’m wondering if anyone is likening edition 2 better as far as consistency Was I using too much? Comment from : Nicole Beck

Yes to red light therapy video! Comment from : Jason Deer

One is always paying for brand recognition, or doctors pushing their own brand Comment from : Jitka Blahakova

And by the way it is absolutely not genetics There is no scientific evidence that our genes have suddenly gone bad, it's just the latest theory to make big pharma billions of dollars Comment from : Mark Pritchard

Thanks for the review on these products I find that whatever the price point, our skin will still age For me, what works best in keeping my skin youthful is a healthy lifestyle, cleansing my skin well daily, and hydration — both drinking water and applying hydrating gels Comment from : Eating Well with Diabetes by Dr Cris, PhD, NP

Ive tried all the gimmicks like retinols or ceramides but what really changed the game was vitamin C serum surprisingly Comment from : J W

Thank you!! ❤️❤️ Comment from : Nikki2370

Dr Ellis, I am not convinced that the growth factor serum presented is able to get into the skin to do what it needs to do Proteins are large molecules that often times require special transport proteins to cross the cell membrane I am not convinced Comment from : daniel sparks

Doctor I have a really hard skin problem and I’ve seen lots of doctors and they couldn’t help I wasted my money on medicine and nothing worked they don’t even know what Is it please help me I just want to know what do I have 💔 please tell me how I can contact you Comment from : Mars woman

Lumier is a GAMECHANGER I did not originally believe in “expensive” skincare but i got my hands on a decent sized sample of this and I have seen a good reduction in my dark circles I’ve tried eye creams with caffeine in it you name it but this is the only one I really feel has helped my dark circles The price is steep but sooo worth it Comment from : tori foxx

What type of sunscreen would be good for a football player that practices in hot weather thus gets extremely drippy sweaty? Their sweat drips into their eyes so it would need to not sting It’s a challenge Comment from : SpartaWarriorCodeRed

Wow, you so beautiful Great video, very professional Comment from : Xana

I think the research for Skinceuticals was paid off a long time ago lol Time to lower their price and reach even more customers I agree on Good Genes The formula is addicting Comment from : Zoeberry *

I bet those products pay you Comment from : Barfbie

My grade school taught all of that but now Ita considered over reach and schools can’t afford nurses so my nieces and nephews got none of it At least this is how it was explained to me by my siblings Who noted their children got none of that education that we did in public grade school in the 80s Comment from : Cara K

I've been splurging on OSEA products and was wondering what your take is on them I really enjoy them and maybe feel like they work so well because I also incorporated a retinoid around the same time The algae incorporated into their products is what grabbed my attention to begin with Comment from : Jessica Altemose

Could you speak to Dr Sturm products? I see them everywhere, but the price price point is incredibly high Are they worth it? Comment from : Maura McCartan

A great, less expensive dupe for Sunday Riley’s Good Genes is the new LA Refining Serum I just started using it and it really does seem like a dupe Also, I’ve been using the ReViv Serums Ultimate Serum for my replacement of TNS It’s much less expensive and packed with growth factors, phyto stem cells and peptides Something to think about :) Comment from : Jess B

Would love to hear your thoughts about the augustinus bader line Comment from : Georgina K

Thank you for this video! I’ve been pondering if the SkinMedica TNS serum is worth it It’s my biggest skincare splurge brI have a question about growth factors vs retinoids What is the difference in what they do and the results one can get? Comment from : crunchety505

I'd like to know if Paula's Choice Clinical Phytoestrogen Elasticity Renewal face serum is worth it Comment from : Mary McKinney

Curious your thoughts on Biologique Recherche lotion p50 as well as Skinmedica retinols Comment from : Melody McLeod

Very helpful video What do think about products containg fragrance, alcohol and essential oils? Do darker skins require specific care? Any ingredients in particular which should be incorporated or excluded Thanks Comment from : Rosebud

I think Retino A (active) is enough paired with a very good moisturiser However, could you make a video on products from Augustinus Bader/Dr Sturm They are expensive and a dermatologist from UK was saying that some of these products are quite average and absolutely not worth the price Comment from : Himadri Debnath

Hi Sam, thanks for this video! brCan you explain about the LED masks, are they ok to use if you have melasma? Comment from : Gali Katan

I absolutely love Verso Super Facial Serum It’s the only skincare product I splurge on I have rosacea and dry skin, and I was able to easily work my way up to daily use, and my skin has never felt better Retinyl-retinoate is also more stable in daylight, so I’m able to use it in my AM routine and leave my PM routine open to other actives ❤ Comment from : Sarah Søltoft Rasmussen

At home red light video Comment from : Maia Schumacher

Can you please do a video in why in only some people the LED mask can make Malasma get darker on some peopleThanks for the video Comment from : mayan girl

Dr Ellis, is it possible that hyperpigmentation can be a result from the LED devices? I’ve seen videos of those saying this has happened to them, but not sure whether or not to believe it’s directly related to that Thanks! Comment from : J M
