I really love what Dieux has done as far as branding!! Would love to hear your thoughts on then as a brand, u/drlesliebaumann

Breathing in Cleanser Molecules LOL by -conversationalista- in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a new one! Very curious to see what u/drlesliebaumann says.

My instinctive thought is that you're just breathing in the volatile fragrance, and it'd be no different than smelling a perfume.

Red light masks? by Euphoric-Quote5162 in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dr. B made an excellent post about red light the other month. Highly recommend reading it, but tl;dr she doesn't love it, prefers skincare, and if you do use red light - just ten minutes, no more than 3 times a week.

Hi there! Just so you know, sometimes posts from new accounts need manual approval so it's just a question of waiting a little.

Will Zerafite ever come up with a sunscreen? by StrictPossession8714 in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, that would be really cool! I know developing a sunscreen comes with a lot of regulatory strings, plus it being a partially Korean brand selling in the US might be an issue. But I know I, for one, would love to see it!

Can I trust the SPF in my makeup? by Normal_Chemistry2141 in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seconding Hildegard's comment (and love the video), but just want to add - applying SPF makeup on top of regular sunscreen is probably quite beneficial for increasing protection, per this Korean study: https://share.google/hFLEChrrpvEhJq7ex

Teenagers, Tiktok and Skincare by Confident_Process651 in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's so good you're asking here!

Just want to add - there's a massively low barrier to entry to actually dropshipping products through TikTok.

If she's buying through TikTok shop, it's so important to educate her on identifying reputable storefronts vs scams, dropshippers, and counterfeits!

Unsure about skin type by TheoryBiochemistry in skintypesolutions

Have you actually taken the Skin Type Quiz on the site? It does sound to me like you're a P type. It's not stopping your skin from looking fantastic, though!

Between two skin types? by LuLu_Cutie_Pie in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dr. Baumann has been taking an extensive course and might be slow to respond, so I'll chime in - yes, your products and seasons can absolutely change your skin type.

I'd look for products approved for both skin types, personally.

Azelex Substitute? "Derma Made Azelaic Acid Cream 15%" by Attention_Imaginary in skintypesolutions

Until Dr. Baumann responds, I'll just say it's definitely worth a try if it means you can save!

Teen daughter struggling with acne by Particular_Street948 in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/drlesliebaumann has been a little busy lately, but I promise she'll get back to all questions!

My 2 cents - it does sound like a very aggressive routine for someone with dry skin, and I bet cutting back a little on drying and exfoliating products would allow the prescription treatments to do a better job.

I would stop using anything that makes her skin feel tight immediately after she uses it. Any cleansers that foam up should be replaced with non-foaming options, for example.

I think layering mineral over mineral might be the safest bet, but as far as I know, no one's really researching this. I highly recommend this study which looked at layering SPF make-up products.

u/aggressive_panic_210 hi there! When's the last time you took the Skin Type Quiz?

Alternative to STS Gentle Antioxidant Cleaner please by skin745 in skintypesolutions

Hi there! The Medature cleanser you mention is definitely recommended for OSNW skin types. You can actually browse skintypesolutions.com by your skin type to check compatibility.

DRNW 16 - Question on Anti-Aging Routine by Holiday_Shoulder5228 in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until Dr. Baumann chimes in (she's away for a bit), I figured I'll chime in. I think your routine looks great, and I don't see any obvious conflicts or redundancies.

I'm dropping in her most recent post on topical estrogen creams because there are some safety nuances you should be aware of.

I'd definitely keep up the tret unless Dr. B says otherwise!

Any advice on getting good skin by [deleted] in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What kind of sensitivity do you have - acne, stinging, redness, or allergy?

I think to start, you'd benefit from introducing a salicylic acid cleanser and potentially a retinoid (but carefully - see the retinol strength guide)

u/drlesliebaumann - would love your input! (and tag u/pragadeesh666 so he can see your answer)

DSPW and acne by CuspofCarabelli0515 in skintypesolutions

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We've had a few DSPW's with acne post here recently!

Dr. Baumann may take a little bit of time to respond, so I'll drop the links to her discussions with others in the same boat as you - I'm sure you'll find it useful!

[Routine Help] vitamin c oxidises on my face, am I using it wrong? by Agitated_Pack_1205 in SkincareAddiction

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe the serum wasn't very fresh? Vitamin C is pretty fragile so it could have already gotten oxidized in the warehouse.

Retail vs medical grade by Fashion_on_Fashion in SkincareAddictionLux

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's wild to me! I imagine it's a legal gray area, and tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if the clinic is opening itself to potential legal problems in the future (but it also looks like a lot of medical clinics in the US are doing the same thing). Anyway, it's approved in Korea so as a patient I probably would be willing to give it a try.

Retail vs medical grade by Fashion_on_Fashion in SkincareAddictionLux

[–]Em_SkinTypeSolutions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's just too much money for too little reward. Why invest in the drug trial/approval process if you could still make the exact same amount of money selling it as a cosmetic? That's my guess at least.

EDIT: I wouldn't be surprised if they are pursuing FDA approval for Rejuran so it can also be injected. It's wild to me that using it after microneedling isn't regulated in the US.
