One of the questions I get repeatedly is: What is the best moisturizer for oily skin?

Hyperpigmentation – What is it and where does it come from? Ask Doctor Anne
Summer is well and truly over, it is raining cats and dogs out there, and the last sunny days are only a faint memory… But one that I am reminded of whenever I look into the mirror. Why? Because each summer accentuates the hyperpigmentation I have on my face thanks to acne, age and two pregnancies. So my main skincare focus for fall is how to fade my hyperpigmentation, but before I go into that, I figured we would talk about the mechanisms that lead to these pesky…

There has been quite a debate about the percentages of active ingredients lately.

Have a cup of tea with me: The Inkey List | Doctor Anne
Just to make that clear from the start: This is not a post about the skincare benefits of tea. It is not a drama thing in terms of “spilling the tea” either, I much prefer to stay away from any drama. But a few things happened recently that I wanted to share my thoughts about, the most pressing (but not the only one), being the recent controversial discussion around The Inkey List and the term “Clean science”. The Inkey List has been featured on my channel numerous times…
