The best ingredients to minimize the appearance of pores or "shrink pores" include Niacinamide, Retinol and BHA or Salicylic Acid but which company is better for these ingredients The Inkey List or The Ordinary? In this video we go over how to minimize pores and also which company is best for these ingredients the Inkey List vs The Ordinary. We also review Squalane and Squalene and what role they play in minimizing or shrinking pores.
Lastly we discuss general tips for minimizing pores. Including what ingredients to avoid that clog pores such as Isopropyl Myristate, Coconut Oil, Olive oil, and Cleansing Oils and Balms plus which makeup is best for minimizing the appearance of pores.

AND - she gets to the science and straight to the point, not like the other ladies you have to cut thru a lot of blah blah to get a tiny bit of info. Also she’s got the real background and you feel you can trust her words. And she carries herself so professionally. If you’re reading this your parents must be very proud of you! Just discovered your channel tonight!

Aren't we fortunate to have you here on YT. A dermatologist and a cosmetic chemist all rolled in one. Perfect.

@ambrjade934 3 года назад

I absolutely *love* that you provided the additional information about which products work better with makeup!!! That’s so important and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve discontinued using what was likely an amazing product because of how my makeup looked on top of it. *HOWEVER*... I’m happy to report that my makeup game has been reduced down to almost nothing anyway thanks to 1) the pandemic and 2) perfecting my skincare routine (courtesy of your recommendations).

@22dolxxxphin22 2 года назад

for the peeling niacinamide from the ordinary: using less helps a lot. 1 or max 2 drops for face and neck is enough (it's 10%, which is a loot, so one drop is more than enough).

@jreed7385 4 года назад

Can you please include products for improving skin texture. I found this video very informative.

@singleparentsdaily143 4 года назад

💗THANK YOU, Dr. Alexis Stephens! This has been THE most informative comparison with the inclusion that MANY want to know about---can I wear makeup?! I am LOVING all your videos so far, can't wait to see more! You're amazing! 💗

Hi Dr. Stephen's, you are absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.could you make a video on hormonal acne? I am a woman in my early 30's and would love to see the products you recommend for AM and PM

@charisma-hornum-fries 3 года назад

My favorite Retinoid is the ordinary 2% emulsion. I’ve tried all of the Inkeys and Ordinary Retinols. It’s just good for me. And it’s an PM product so I haven’t tried it before makeup. Usually with makeup the spreadable primer is great on top of most products.

Thanks for a very informative video. Adorable kids too! I am acne prone and rosacea prone. Treating with azealic acid and Plexion cream. I use Differin at night. I would love to see a video or get advice on introducing a PHA for exfoliation.

@ebonyfair9487 3 года назад

As far as the ordinary works I’m very very oily and I’ve been loving the products but what I do is layer them of course put on my sunscreen let it sit for about 10-15 minutes enjoy your coffee🥃☕️ LOL and your make up will be lovely all day😊

@CelestialSleuth 3 года назад

I was wondering why squaline breaks me out so horribly😑 Will definitely be trying the inkey list now that I know it works better with makeup. Do you have any affiliate links so I can support your channel? I've been really enjoying binging your videos! PS beautiful babies!❤❤❤

@carpediemearth Год назад

Thank you for all this information. I really appreciate how thorough you are. Dr. Alexis, apart from these topical products, do you also recommend microneedling to minimize pores or does that only help acne scarring?

@catinaellis126 2 года назад

I wish I could book an appointment with u! It’s a shame my city (Grand Rapids, MI) doesn’t have one black dermatologist or one who is knowledgeable about African American skin. I’ve felt so helpless guessing at would help me just to be disappointed because I’ve NEVER seen any positive results or improvement from anything I’ve tried via a dermatologist or a esthetician. Lots of money wasted over the years, lots of tears and frustration. Your videos make me feel I’m getting the knowledge necessary to understand how the skin works, why things haven’t worked and given me hope to try at improving my skin again with some of your suggestions. Thank u so much for what you do!

Thank you Dr. Alexis. I learned a lot about different acids. I was curious to why my skin was balling up when I applied makeup; after using Ordinary's niacinamide. I need the implement retinol but nervous about when to use it, Bakuchiol is the way for me.

@sayladytea 3 года назад

You are the TRUTH. I replaced the inkey retinol with bha/salicylic acid and had immediate improvement in pores and bumps. Thanks!

@margotrobbie8582 Год назад

It’s bha aand sacylic acid the same? And also why don’t u use both retinol and sacylid?

Love your beauty knowledge! I was wondering. If cleansing oils and balms are not the best for pores, is it better to just use a good makeup remover as a first cleanse? Of course, some cleansers are good at removing makeup too. Are there any makeup removers that you recommend? Thank You. :) ~debbie

@AR-md1zq 4 года назад

Is professional microneedling with platelet rich plasma safe and effective for dark skin for the treatment of large pores and atrophic acne scars? Also is platelet rich plasma injections effective for traction alopecia? Also I use mineral oil to in my double cleanse regimen before I cleanse with cerave SA cleanser. Is mineral oil bad for my pores. What could I use instead as I have found micellar water to not be as effective to remove my makeup?

@letesaaviles9641 3 года назад

Hi dr Alexis! Which percentage of retinol from the ordinary should I get? I don’t use make up

@vatsalab3478 4 года назад

I asked the Inkey list about it. They said that it’s 0.05% retinol and 0.05% HPR. Sadly very low percentage. It’s good if your starting.

@nancykerrigan 4 года назад

What's HPR?

@SamMKKK 4 года назад

nancykerrigan - It’s a vit. a ester also known as Granactive Retinoid. There’s not as much research done on its efficacy in comparison to retinoic acid - besides the small studies presented to us by its pioneers. Dr Dray has a video on it.

@Gaylendanielle 3 года назад

I noticed you mentioned foundation can be the culprit of clogged pores. Do you have any non comedogenic recommendations? A video about this would be awesome!

Can I use the inkey list niacinamide with The ordinary vitamin c? I know those two ingredients don’t work together With TO formulation.

@erinlove9254 3 года назад

I use The Ordinary product and I SWEAR BY THEM! I use them at night, so I do not have to worry about the "make up" issues discussed in this video. My skin has completely improved in just a year's time. I will now be adding the Niacinamide into my routine. I just need to know, Can I blend Niacinamide with HA and Alpha Arbutin?

@reianaranglin1779 3 года назад

Yes, you can. In previous videos she mentioned that niacinamide can be used with practically anything. I normally use niacinamide & HA in my morning routine and HA and alpha Arbutin at night. Hope this helps!
