Dermatologist Dr. Kunal, MDGreasy hair fix: Swipe micellar water on a cotton round along your roots when you’re in a rush. It absorbs oil fast. Great for a quick refresh between washes. Lazy hack for thinning hair: Wash with an anti-dandruff shampoo containing ketoconazole. It targets the yeast-driven inflammation that can contribute to thinning, on top of controlling flakes. Leave on scalp 3-5 minutes before rinsing. Smell like nothing all day: Use a benzoyl peroxide wash on your feet and underarms in the shower. It kills the odor-causing bacteria at the source. Leave it on 1-2 minutes before rinsing. Keratosis pilaris: Combine glycolic acid with a urea-based moisturizer. Glycolic dissolves the keratin plugs, urea softens and hydrates. Apply glycolic first after showering, follow with urea cream. Give it 8-12 weeks. Arazlo (tazarotene) is genuinely one of the most effective retinoids available. If you can tolerate it, it’s a real skin transformer for texture, fine lines, and tone. Start slow, moisturize after, and don’t use if pregnant. [Rx ask your derm] Tinted sunscreen for melasma and dark spots. Iron oxide in tinted formulas blocks visible light, which regular sunscreen doesn’t, and visible light is a major trigger for melasma. Wear daily. Do you believe me on these?? #skincaretips #hygiene #antiaging #darkspots #keratosispilaris @BIODERMA USA @CeraVe @The Ordinary @LaRochePosayUS
