Dr. Shereene Idriss is live!

I don't know. I don't know. I think I just got. I got too passionate for the live. I got too passionate for the live. We've got 8%. Hold on. Let me get my charger. I need to go get ready for bed. I don't know. Am I still on here? I think I said I hate too many times and YouTube kicked me out. Okay. I don't know. I do not know. I don't know. If you say the H A T E word, you get kicked off. I don't know anymore. Okay. But I strongly dislike, like, having to pre think things and I just want to have a place where I can speak to people, hear your thoughts in real time, understand where you're at, meet you where you're at, know what you guys are thinking. Like, you know, when I used to do. So a lot of you guys don't follow me on Instagram, by the way, which is interesting. Super interesting. Because I always thought you guys all followed me on Instagram. I started. Do you guys know what year I started on Social? It's so embarrassing. Do you guys know what year I started on? I'm like 100 years old. What year did I start on social PCSC in 2022. Nope. What year did I start on social? 2008. No, man, I'm not 100 years old. 2020. Nope. Pillow Talk Derm. Natalie saw 100. What year did Pillow Talk Derm start? 2018 is correct. James. RTP789 doing Instagram stories in 2018. And I called my Instagram stories Pillow Talk Derm. Yes, I'm drinking in my bathroom. It's water. But I started doing Instagram stories called Pillow Talk derm back in 2018. And it was because I just had a baby. My boobs were huge. It was before my breast reduction, which I think I need to do again and story for another day. And I would. I was kind of depressed postpartum. I had been fired and I just wanted to talk to people and answer people's comments. Now, when Instagram was still fun and cool and not an algorithm based craziness, I would do these pillow talk during stories and then as people were watching them in real time, I would get. I am not kidding. At first dozens, then hundreds, then thousands of questions live like in my DMS as I'm doing the stories. So I would start like when I was younger, I was. It was. It was. It was eight years ago, guys. So I would start like at 10pm okay? And quite literally I wouldn't be done before 1:30 or 2am I can't do that anymore. So I'm gonna want to go log off. Like, there's no DMS anyway on YouTube. I don't know. You guys can't DM on YouTube. I don't think so. I would answer people's questions for hours after I was done doing like four to six pillow talk questions and answering that. And it was so much fun because it was quite genuinely genuine curiosity. There wasn't this like sensory overload on social. People were really curious to discuss open discussions and talk about different things, different treatments in office, trying to understand different procedures, trying to understand what are different things that they could do to themselves without changing who they are or if they wanted to change their. What are more drastic measures and what could they do from a skincare perspective? Perspective. And it really became like an ongoing discussion. And I loved it. I loved it because I was actually talking to you guys. But because Instagram has changed so much when you do stories now, it depends on the day and the algorithm. What are the DMS that come in. And it's so funny, like I'm such a reactive human that I feed off of you guys and answering your questions and that if I don't get the questions back, I'm like, why am I doing this? I'm talking to the void. I don't want to do this. So this is why I'm doing lives again. Why on YouTube? Because I feel like it's a safer platform now. Because when YouTube, when Instagram goes live, you don't know who the hell's coming in. And there's a lot of creeps. And I feel like people here are really from the subscribers who follow and so you can put your notifications on and you can have like a little more intimate like chat. So I'm going to be doing this more on YouTube because I feel like I want to connect. I want to talk to you guys. Yeah, I can't do Instagram, Tick tock and all the other platforms. I feel you. How do you avoid comodomes when basting? Okay. I have a green upper lip area. Maybe you should get your love checked. Do you have suggest? Okay. How can I want to start Skincare library. I can't go to society. Okay. I love this. Okay. How's Armor? Aar is trying to fall asleep. I think he's listening to a podcast. I don't know. Omer is fine. Thank you for asking. If you follow me on Instagram, but only half of you guys do. His mom is really Sick. Really sick. We thought she was going to die on December 30th. It was really dramatic. I was alone with the kids. He went to Lebanon. But she's still alive and I feel very bad for her cuz she's not doing well and I just, it's like a matter of time unfortunately. But he's, he's, he's having his, you know, he's going through it. So it's not fun. It's really not fun. And the world is dark, so social has been like not fun for anyone in the world. And so between him being in that darker space and social being a terrible workplace and the world being dark, it's just like. So I'm just trying to like keep it together. I'm trying to keep together. Thank you. H. This poor guy she had so. Yeah, it's just so Sad. Like stage four breast cancer. She's been living with stage four breast cancer for the past six, seven years. But this past year, 20, 25 got really bad and I don't think it's going to be past 26. Yeah, anyway, anyway. All right, this is not to be down a conversation. It's not a conversation. It's very depressing. So depressing. Okay, I'm just gonna tell you guys something which is like I don't care. I've never done drugs. Never done drugs. And I'm not saying this because I'm on alive. I've never done drugs. That being said, I think after I hit 80, is there any 80 year olds in the group and I know I have something, I'm gonna start doing drugs every day. By then I would have contributed to society, I would have given back, I would have paid my dues, I would have been a very. You know what I mean? But I would not want to be conscious going like, no, no. At that point it's like, let's go, let's go 74 here. I mean you're still good. You got another six years if you're 74. I'm talking about 80 plus, do you know what I mean? 80 plus, we go get high together. I don't know what kind of drugs, I haven't thought that far. But if I have an island and I am the dictator of my island, any 80 year old plus we can all go get medicated together on some kind of drug. I don't know, I'm not on drugs. I've never done drugs, I've never smoked weed, I've never done any of that. But no, I still have to contribute. Daria And I'm not going to start now. And I have kids and I want to contribute, and I don't like the feeling of being altered. But I just think after a certain age, it gets really sad. Like, my grandmother died at 90. Like, I don't remember talking about this, you guys. This took a left field. She died at 95, 96. And she would always say, oh, all my friends are dead now. And I would be like, what are you saying? Oh, my God. You have a very active and healthy 96 year old. I know. My grandmother was very good until the last, like, month and a half. And it was just, like, really sad. It was really sad. And then I. I would get very sad for her. I don't know if I want to see that for myself. So, anyway, I'm giving you guys very deep insight, but 80 plus, that's the time I'll start doing the drugs. But not before. I don't have pets. No. I'm, like, really allergic. My husband wants a dog and I'm allergic. My grandmother is 95, and she keeps saying she thinks God forgot she's still here. That's what my grandmother would say. She goes, I think he forgot. I think he forgot. And I'm just here, and everyone's dead, and I'm still here. Anyway, martinis also do the trick. Okay, so anyway, this is just completely left field. I'm talking to you guys like I talked to a friend. You know, judge me, don't judge me, I don't care. Okay, this is what I think. Who's 104? 104 on YouTube? Hold on it. Well, my grandmother is still alive. She's 104 years old, but her mind is gone. Yeah, it's sad. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'll make my mind go chemically at that stage of life. All right. Okay. Thank you for all your advice. That's sad. I know. Vacation. Okay. I don't know what you guys are all writing in one words. Oh, this. This person needs to get blocked. I'm just gonna remove this person. Actually hide them. They can learn. I don't need to see them. Okay, so that person was hidden. Are your brows microbladed? No, I did not microblade my brows. It's so interesting, though. I always thought I had the worst eyebrows. And then I started using Katie Jane Hughes's eye gel, and I just started brushing them. So, like, this is a little bit light. So sometimes I'll just brush down right here. But, yeah, no, they're not microbladed. They're my hairs right there. It's light makeup. This is from 5:45am my makeup still going. All right. Okay. Thoughts on micro needling? What serums? Okay, you guys have one question to ask. One question. I need to go to bed now. Soon. What is the one question that we are going to answer? Let's do one. You know, hold on, hold on. I have an idea. Let's think about this Q A. Ask it. All right, if I do this, where do I see the Q A? Hold on. I watched the first episode of so I. Oh my God. He did Rivalry. You guys are such. Because I did not know what it's about. And my friend, a dude comes over. I've known him for like years. He's like a second cousin. And I'm like, so have you heard of this heated rivalry? And he's like, no. And I'm like, yeah, apparently it's a really, really, really good show. And my husband's working like on the computer and I'm like, we should watch Heated Rivalry because it's like the show people need to watch. I put on the first episode and I'm just like, what's happening? And he's getting really uncomfortable because we're basically watching a gay porn together. And my husband's over here on the computer and he's like, try it out. And I'm like, I don't know. People told me to watch this show and I'm like, you're a 40 something year old man. You can't handle this. If you can't handle this, this is. I'm not your friend. So he's like, no, no, it's fine, it's fine. So we end up watching this like episode together. But it was very awkward. It was one of the most awkward moments because it's like I wasn't anticipating what I was about to watch. I thought it was like cutting edge ice skating. I don't know what it was about. I don't know. Cutting edge. You guys know cutting edge. That movie, the ice skating movie, Figure Skating. And it was like a completely different situation about two men being in love with one another, hiding their feelings, but actively making out on screen. And I'm watching this with a guy friend, cousin, something. And then my husband's over there on the computer and there are weird sound effects and weird stuff and I'm just like, I don't know. So anyway, it was, it was just, it was a game of chicken at that point. And I was like, I'm not stopping. And he's like, I'm not stopping. And I'm like, I'm not gonna stop. And so we both watched it and we both, I think, were mortified on the inside. But it was a good show. It was a good show. I do not recommend that. It was not. It was awkward. It was as comfortable as I am as a human being in my own skin. I don't think I want to watch that with another dude that I'm not even like, not my husband. And it was just off. Anyway, let's see. How do I see the questions you guys asked me? Do you guys see the question box? Hold on, hold on, hold on. Before you keep asking, in the. In this comment section that's going very fast, do we see the question box up here? Can someone try to put a. Oh, I have to ask you a question. No, that's stupid. Ask a question. No. Oh, that's so dumb. I'm so stupid. I'm so stupid. You guys. Okay. I'm so sad. Okay, I gotta go. I gotta go. I'm supposed to be asking you the question and you're supposed to be typing an answer. How stupid is that? Oh. Oh, no. Okay. Anyway, not the snort. I gotta go. Okay, you guys, I'm gonna go. What are your thoughts on putting gasoline on your skin? No, don't put. Where are you from? Hold on, hold on. Can I. I'm being dead for real. Ilman04025 what are your thoughts on putting gasoline petrol on your skin? For beautiful skin. Please tell me where you're from and I'll tell you why. I have a story. No, not Canada. That guy. The gasoline question. Petrol on your skin. Where. Where are they from? No, not. I'm not talking to you. Hold on. Gasoline. Where is that person from? Because. True story. Philippines. Hold on. No, no, they're not trolling me. He's not the gasoline guy. No, you're not from Canada. Hold on. It's not your screen name. True story. So the lady who helped raise me, she passed away, but she had the softest legs in the world and she was from the Philippines. And she told me that when they used to go on the rice fields, they used to put petrol on their skin to get rid of all the bugs. And now, obviously, it's extremely toxic. And she. Of course, it's not something I would ever do, but she did it when she was younger, but it killed all her hair follicles on her legs. Now, is it because she's Filipina? Was it because of that? She claims it was because of that. I do not recommend it at all. It is extremely toxic, extremely dangerous, and absolutely not gasoline. They said, I don't know. They're talking about mineral. They said g. They wrote gasoline in the question. And so I don't know if it's something people do when they're on a farm. Like, you know, I have no idea. I have no clue. But please do not do that. Although her legs are the softest legs I've ever touched. But please do not do that. It is absolutely extremely dangerous. And we are here worried about toxic skin care. And the. The parabens in our skin is going to be. No, man, gasoline is toxic skin care. Do not put gasoline, kerosene, whatever on your skin. Okay? I don't. They didn't know any better. Of course they didn't know any better. This is like back in the. She was like born in 45. This was back in the 50s. Of course they didn't know any better. It was a different time. But that story always, like, shocked me when I was a kid. And so that question was like, you just brought me back to a core memory from my childhood. And that is not something I would ever recommend. Okay, all right, I think I'm going to go now. But yes, I am a dermatologist. I am 42 years old. I'm originally from Lebanon. I was born in the US at four days went back to Cyprus because my mother was on a tourist visa. And because I was born in the US in the 80s, I got my family their citizenship and that's how we ended up in the U.S. we came to the U.S. because there was a war in Lebanon and our home got bombed. And that is my story in a nutshell. And I have to go now, so good night. I hope you guys enjoyed this live. Do you guys want me to do more of this? Actually, that's going to be your final poll. Do we. Oh, God. Do we do more lives? Okay, start poll. And I'm gonna let you guys answer this. Okay, you guys can answer this and you can see where we're at. I don't know what's going on there, but I hope you guys enjoyed this. I really just want to connect. I just want to laugh at stupid. I just want to feel better. I want to make you guys feel better because we're sure as I'm not going to make the world better. I hope and I hope, I hope there are people, thank God there are activists who will fight for that. But it seems like it's just never going to get better. So we are going to make it better for ourselves and just continue to grow, laugh, be a loving, accepting community. We may have judgments, but we're going to work past our judgments of cosmetic procedures. We are going to learn how to evolve in our thoughts, be accepting of one another, be extremely human to the point where it could be uncomfortable, like watching heated rivalry with another man who's not your husband. And we are going to enjoy this together. I will make mistakes. I will correct those mistakes. We will continue to grow. There's no harm, no foul, there's no mal intent. And we will just get closer and hopefully we can, you know, share stories and learn from one another. I need to understand YouTube lives better. If I can bring people on the live with me, I would love to bring people on the live with me. I don't know if that can happen on YouTube live. And I will. I'm not even going to try to edit these lives or like save a title. I don't even know how to do that yet. If it saves, great. If it doesn't, sorry. But starting. Let me give me a couple of days to figure out the Google document where I can give you guys a way to enter. Every time I do this for a surprise giveaway because I do think it's nice to have little gifts and little surprises in life. And if I'm in the position where I can do that, of course I want to do that. All right, I will see you guys later. Have a beautiful. What day of the week is it? Monday night? Tuesday night? Wednesday night? Tuesday night. And I will catch you later. And 98% of you, 200 people. So who are the four people who voted no? You're voted off the island. You will not be coming to our nerd island once I have it where we will be 80 plus years old flying in the sky. All right, good night. I'll see you guys. I don't know how to get rid of this. Hold on there, that's gone. I'll see you later. Good night. Don't let the bedbugs bite. And if you guys bedbugs, we can talk about bedbugs tomorrow and how to treat them, but that's a pain in the ass. All right, I'll see you guys later.
