Description
As a dermatologist, I see and hear about a lot of skin concerns, and while I have plenty of videos on products I love, there are some skin products out there I really DON'T love. I’m not here to panic you or shame anyone. This is simply my dermatologist no-list: products that are, in my opinion, high risk and low reward, the ones most likely to irritate your skin, trigger breakouts, cause a rash, or just create problems that didn’t need to exist in the first place.
I’m going to show you what they are, why I avoid them, who they’re especially bad for like sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, kids and teens, and then I’ll give you safer swaps that actually get you the results people are trying to get from these products.
