How To Repair Your Skin Barrier! | Dr. Shereene Idriss

The humor is the real sauce to you, but your personnal approach to educating all is probably my favorite thing about your videos. Thank you.

Who else is so overwhelmed with all the information that it feels like will explode ?

I agree! I LOVE that she is unapologetically herself! She teaches us so much, makes us laugh, and loves her little skin nerds! She is a few moments of happiness every Saturday!! ♥️♥️

Love how real she always is. My skin has come a long ass way since being introduced to her!

I watched your video on the rosewater/glycerin mixture. I cheated and purchased it premixed. It has changed my life. I'm in eastern Canada and between 2 years of having to wear a mask and brutally cold winds in the winter my face has been difficult to keep happy. I have both rosacea and flares of SD. Both are managed with the Aveeno oat products, vanicream cleanser and LRP Baume B5 but the rosewater/glycerin spray has been the missing link. Why didn't my own dermatologist tell me about this simple trick? He keeps telling me I have an impaired skin barrier. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

As an aesthetician- you have been a game changer for me and my clients…. And my business. Affordable, basic skin care! ❤️. You are goals ma’am! Thank you 😊

Thaaaaank you Shereene, my skin has changed drastically since I simplified my routine. Now I just use the CeraVe hydrating cleanser and vaseline (sometimes I apply a thin layer of fragrance free lightweight moisturizer before) and I was terrified my oily skin was gonna breakout so bad but as opposite it has almost completely cleared, it has almost no redness (I have rosacea) and no fleakyness. I cannot thank u more 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👑

My skin looks and feels so great since switching to all La Roche-Posay products and keep it simple. Breakouts are now rare.

Thanks to you I stopped using physical exfoliants which were causing broken capillaries. Now I use chemical which is way more gentle on my skin. Still waiting for you to come out with your own line cause you're a genius.

I am personally a fan of K-beauty and I noticed that they actually focus a lot on nourishing the skin, hydration and protecting the skin barrier. But I definitely messed up my skin barrier 2 years ago by over-exfoliating and I blame TO AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution trend!

It feels strange still doing everyday life things like you said making this video with everything going on in the world right now. I’ve been having such a hard time sleeping. Ukraine is on my mind 24/7 but I want to thank you because I do enjoy watching your videos and for 18 minutes I was able to relax my mind and stop my anxiety, fear, and depression for just a short while. So thank you. We all need to find peace in these crazy times for our own sanity. Prayers to Ukraine and all involved ❤️

this video taught me to treat the contact dermatitis on my eyelids i had been struggling with for 5 years. i literally have shinmery eyeshadow, liquid eyiner, and strip lashes on now, which i thought i had to give up for life.

I'm a skin care Nerd, and damn proud of it! Love the Aveeno cleanser, and the Skinceuticals Triple Lipid when I can catch a sale. I'm not sure why your husband thought it was appropriate to interrupt class, however he may have to stay after school for that. XXOO

Right when my skin feels like it is damaged from too much exfoliation. Thank you for good timing!

Nowadays, we don't talk enough about not overstripping the skin. In recent years most of us, (mostly by chance, I avoided a lot of it, but still) were damaging our barriers, so not enough of reminding that the skin is not to be brushed with a brush. Literally and metaphorically.

Yes Preach Queen, Would love to see your éducative video on people who are dealing with some autoimmune diseases/ immune deficiency. what skincare, skin concerns and issues, the question that boggles my mind is whether ARVs have a slight impact on Skin whether it's good or bad.

Simplifying my skincare routine with products that actually work for me( I have roseacea) has made such a difference! I can’t use most actives and fragrance is a big no no. I appreciate your knowledge!

The Marie Veronique Barrier Restore Serum is my HOLY GRAIL product. It's the product that made me realize my skin was dehydrated, not dry.

Thanks to you, I have started to use LRP Cicaplast baume on my face. I was a bit sceptical in the begining because my skin is quite oily and prone to cystic acne, and so far, doxycylin is the only thing that gives me clear face for a longer period. But, after a week of using cicaplast before sleep, my face is in sooo much better condition! It has just blown my mind! Its not just that it greatly reduced my inflammation and acne, but my texture and hydration are in so much better state. Cannot thank you enough for that and all the knowledge that you are providing!!! Hugs from Croatia! 🤗

Thank you, Dr. Idriss! I remember having 2 under 4. The days were so long. There were times I wanted to run off to a deserted island (with sunscreen!). I so appreciate you taking time every week to educate us on skin care. On top of starting a new business and raising your babes. You are an inspiration and breathe of fresh air!! My boys are 7 and 6 now and it’s a whole new world. It only gets better 💕 You make my Saturday! Skin care = self care and I can’t thank you enough for all that you do.
