Carousel Intensive Foot Ointment [00:41]

  • Highly recommended for dry, cracked heels, rough, dry skin on the feet.
  • Contains urea and salicylic acid to help with nail plate hydration and the skin around the nails.
  • Can help with toenails and prevent toenail fungus by hydrating the nail fold.
  • Beneficial for a condition known as "kataderma climacticum," which is profound dry cracked heels experienced by women during menopause due to estrogen decline.
  • Described as "intensive" and may require use only a couple of times a week for maintenance to avoid making the outer protective layer too smooth, potentially leading to blisters.
  • Fragrance-free.
  • Application advice: apply after a shower at night and cover with socks to keep the ointment on the feet and allow it to soak in, ideally overnight for maximum hydration.

"Oh my gosh, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I discovered this product after you talked about it. It has completely completely changed my feet for the better."

Nizoral Anti-Dandruff Shampoo [03:12]

  • The active ingredient is ketoconazole, an antifungal.
  • Helps control dandruff by reducing the burden of Malassezia yeast, which is responsible for flakes.
  • Can be used for seborrheic dermatitis, which can appear as greasy, scaly, red patches on the forehead, between brows, and around the nose, and may heal with hypopigmentation on deeper skin tones.
  • Can be used as a face wash to control seborrheic dermatitis.
  • Effective for "fungal acne" (Malassezia folliculitis), which presents as itchy bumps without blackheads or whiteheads, often on the forehead.
  • May help slow androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss) by interfering with Malassezia inflammation and potentially having anti-androgen effects at the follicle level by inhibiting dihydrotestosterone.
  • It's not a cure for hair loss but can help maintain existing hair and be used with other hair loss treatments.

"The way this shampoo works for dandruff is it helps cut down on the burden of malisesia yeast via that ketoconol and ultimately that is the yeast that is responsible for dandruff."

Kjaer Weis Peptide Skin Booster [05:52]

  • A peptide serum that can help reduce wrinkle depth, improve moisture retention, and firm the outermost aspect of the skin, giving a plumping effect.
  • Contains niacinamide, beneficial for dark spots, redness, and the moisture barrier.
  • Fragrance-free.
  • Comes in a large 150ml bottle, offering great value.
  • Performs as well as high-end peptide serums.
  • Can be used as the first step in a skincare routine after cleansing, layered under moisturizer and other serums, to prep the skin and potentially enhance penetration of subsequent ingredients.

"It's a peptide serum. Peptides are one of those ingredients that are not necessarily a musthave, but they can, depending on the peptide, reduce wrinkle depth and help with moisture retention and skin's outermost layer, helping to firm the outermost aspect of the skin and kind of have a plumping effect."

Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Regenerating Retinol Cream [07:10]

  • A cosmetic form of vitamin A that can improve visible signs of skin aging and collagen production with long-term use.
  • The brand has a long-standing track record of high-quality, stable, and effective retinols.
  • Features a sustained action and slow-release formula to minimize irritation.
  • Can cause redness, irritation, or peeling in the initial weeks of use.
  • The cream is rich, hydrating, and moisturizing, providing an instant gratification effect.
  • Not recommended for use around the eyes; an eye cream version is a better alternative.
  • Can be used on the neck and upper chest without irritation.

"Retinol is an ingredient that if you're not if you've never used it before, be aware that after a couple of weeks with it, you can start to get some redness, some irritation, some peeling."

Differin Gel [09:11]

  • Adapalene, an FDA-approved over-the-counter acne medication and a retinoid.
  • Can make the claim that it treats acne, unlike cosmetic retinol.
  • Considered the best over-the-counter option for acne.
  • Besides clearing breakouts, it can reduce the risk of and improve existing post-acne marks and redness.
  • Adapalene is anti-inflammatory.
  • Can also be used for improving visible signs of skin aging, has been shown to improve collagen production, and can lighten age spots.
  • Can be used on the face and the backs of the hands.
  • May be a little more irritating than retinol for some, but is generally considered gentle.

"So if you have acne, I think adapalene is the best over- the-counter option as opposed to retinol for that reason."

Caravee Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner [10:26]

  • The brand has entered the hair care market and has not disappointed.
  • The shampoos and conditioners are highly praised.
  • The hydrating shampoo and conditioner are suitable for people with drier scalps and drier hair types.
  • Contain niacinamide, which is good for reducing inflammation in the scalp.
  • Fragrance-free.
  • Relatively affordable.
  • The line also includes anti-dandruff shampoo, anti-dandruff conditioner, and a two-in-one anti-dandruff shampoo and conditioner, all fragrance-free and effective.
  • These are considered all-time favorites, especially for those with fragrance allergies, as fragrance-free options in hair care are limited.

"The shampoos and the conditioners from Caravee are wonderful, wonderful, wonderful."

Eucerin Radiant Tone Face Cleansing Gel with 2% AHA [11:29]

  • Contains 2% alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), specifically glycolic and lactic acid.
  • Effective as a first step in a morning skincare routine for gentle exfoliation.
  • Helps exfoliate through the action of the acids and the washing process.
  • Gentle enough for sustained effects as AHAs can remain on the skin after rinsing due to coacervation.
  • Leaves skin smooth and hydrated.
  • May help subsequent skincare products penetrate better.
  • Not recommended for washing eyelids because it is an exfoliating cleanser and eyelid skin is delicate, potentially leading to dry eyelids.
  • Fragrance-free.

"Okay, so the 2% AHA alpha hydroxy acid is glycolic and lactic. And what I really liked about this cleansing gel is I liked using it as a first step of my skincare routine in the morning because it allows for some gentle exfoliation by virtue of both the acids and simply the action of washing your face helps to exfoliate, but it also is really gentle."

L'Oreal True Match Lumi Gloian [13:17]

  • A tinted moisturizer that provides a little bit of color correction and a glow.
  • Can be applied to cheeks and blended with concealer over sunscreen.
  • The iron oxides can offer additional protection against visible light from the sun, which contributes to hyperpigmentation.
  • Looks good, fragrance-free, and moisturizing.
  • Not overly shimmery, avoiding a "copper pot" or excessive glitter effect.
  • Multiple tubes have been repurchased, and it performs well compared to more expensive versions.
  • Makeup applies well over it.
  • It's more of an everyday moisturizer with sunscreen and is not water-resistant.

"This just looks good. Okay, it looks good."

PanOxyl Acne Wash (10% and 4%) [14:20]

  • A benzoyl peroxide cleanser effective for body acne and face acne.
  • Benzoyl peroxide is an evidence-based ingredient for acne.
  • Using it in a cleanser reduces the risk of dryness due to short contact therapy.
  • The 4% concentration can be just as effective as 10% but is less drying.
  • The 10% might be more helpful for thicker body acne, cystic acne, plaques, and acne nodules.
  • Benzoyl peroxide can bleach fabrics and hair, but it does not bleach the skin.
  • Can be used as an underarm wash to reduce bacteria that cause body odor.
  • Also effective for washing feet.

"Poxil. Not only is a Poxil 10% acne wash on sale, but the 4% acne wash is on sale as well."

AmLactin 12% Daily Fragrance-Free Lotion [16:10]

  • Contains 12% or higher lactic acid, including ammonium lactate.
  • Can improve both epidermal and dermal thickness, beneficial for aging skin and skin thinning.
  • Can be used in the morning alongside adapalene at night for synergy in improving collagen and dermal thickness.
  • May help with corticosteroid-induced skin thinning.
  • Excellent for dry, rough skin and exfoliates it away, particularly good for rough and bumpy skin (keratosis pilaris).
  • Beneficial for nails, similar to how Carousel is good for toenails.
  • Alpha hydroxy acids (like lactic acid) can make skin more sensitive to the sun, so sunscreen is essential.
  • Has a slight milky aroma that some may not prefer.

"And and let's not forget it is amazing for dry rough skin. Really gets in there and exfoliates it away."

Neutrogena Collagen Hydrogel SPF 50 [17:36]

  • Features a micropeptide that has been in development for 15 years and penetrates well into the skin.
  • Clinical trials show notable improvement in wrinkle depth and jawline contour.
  • Combines a chemical sunscreen with the micropeptide in a fragrance-free moisturizer.
  • No white cast.
  • Does not cause burny eyes, though a slight tingling sensation from the peptide has been noted, which subsides and does not cause redness.
  • The finish is not overly dewy and dries down without feeling heavy or oppressive.
  • Makeup applies well over it.
  • It is not water-resistant and is designed as an everyday moisturizer with sunscreen.

"But the thing about this line is that it's not the collagen that you're banking on here. It's actually the micropeptide, which peptides, like I said, depending on the peptide, they can improve collagen."
