Only minutes into @carolinehirons USE YOUR SPF FFS igtv vid (swipe left to see grid) and this exchange with @ranellamd was screaming in my head. Cracked me up, but perfectly aligned with what dermatologists have told me over the last decade or more. Why do people still believe this anti-sunscreen-Vitamin-d stuff? #mustamplify . . #WearSunscreen #SunscreenEveryday #Sunscreen #StopSunscreenLies #SunscreenSavesLives #misinformation #disinformation #misinfluencer #fearmongering #sciencenotfear #healthrisk #dermadvice #amplifyscience #amplifyscicomm #amplifymedicine #Beautygeeks https://www.instagram.com/p/CRpSWFBLYBf/?utm_medium=tumblr

I’ve been wondering about these pores-vacuum things — the videos are awfully fascinating for some (we know who we are). Dermatologist Francesca Sy-Alvarado of @golightlymd shared some advice on that very subject with @previewph recently. With Dr. Francesca’s permission, I’m popping her post in here in case you’ve been curious about pore vacuums too. 😄 . Thanks, @golightlymd! . #porevacuum #blackheads #skincare #dermadvice #skincaredevice #Beautygeeks (at Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRpGPlYrrwL/?utm_medium=tumblr

“But I’ve been using it for years, it CAN’T be what’s making my skin crazy!” That’s a cry that @drsandyskotnicki has heard a gazillion times as a dermatologist who specializes in sensitized skin and skin allergies. You want to know about reactions and common irritants? She’s your expert. Indeed, over the years she’s been a frequent go-to for beauty journalists and editors who need reliable info and quotes for skincare articles. You may also already know her wonderfully successful book, “Beyond Soap: The Real Truth about What You Are Doing to Your Skin and How to Fix it for a Beautiful Healthy Glow.” Allergy vs irritation is a tricky topic, especially when many people never suspect the culprits may be items like their favourite shampoo and conditioner, or essential oils. “But it’s natural,” is another thing Dr. Skotnicki hears a lot in this age of synthetics-are-bad propaganda. Pop over to @drsandyskotnicki’s feed for more, and check out the Live she’s doing with @drwhitneybowe today at 3:30 pm EST about skin allergies vs irritation. Or bookmark the subsequent IGTV video when it’s up for viewing later. Chances are you may find yourself in a situation in which you need to refer to it more than once. 😘 #skinallergy #skinirritation #atopicdermatitis #dermatologist #derm #dermadvice #factsnotfear #skin #skinhealth #BeyondSoap #Beautygeeks (at Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJbz-m4B1EK/?igshid=1v2zc9kjsj42k
