43
00:02:08,985 --> 00:02:12,185
Speaker 4: I'm gonna die. Tell me a little bit about your

44
00:02:12,225 --> 00:02:15,345
Speaker 4: skin journey. What are some concerns that you've struggled with

45
00:02:15,385 --> 00:02:17,665
Speaker 4: in the past, And tell me a little bit about

46
00:02:17,745 --> 00:02:18,865
Speaker 4: where your skin's at now.

47
00:02:19,185 --> 00:02:22,145
Speaker 2: If you're talking about my skincare journey, I'm embarrassed to

48
00:02:22,225 --> 00:02:25,945
Speaker 2: admit that. I don't think it really kind of started

49
00:02:26,025 --> 00:02:30,665
Speaker 2: or kicked off till my late twenties. I have a

50
00:02:30,665 --> 00:02:35,705
Speaker 2: wonderful mother, but she is an absolute son worshiper first strike,

51
00:02:36,185 --> 00:02:39,465
Speaker 2: and she's a massive tomboy. She's a huge tomboy, so

52
00:02:39,545 --> 00:02:43,985
Speaker 2: she's never ever cared about her skin care. She used

53
00:02:43,985 --> 00:02:47,665
Speaker 2: to put hand cream on as face cream. She's laid back,

54
00:02:47,785 --> 00:02:51,105
Speaker 2: tomboy natural beauty. So that's what I grew up with.

55
00:02:51,185 --> 00:02:53,865
Speaker 2: In terms of a role model, she's always kind of

56
00:02:53,905 --> 00:02:55,985
Speaker 2: been like, you know, just love the skin that you're in.

57
00:02:56,025 --> 00:03:00,465
Speaker 2: And whilst that's a great message, I absolutely wish that

58
00:03:00,585 --> 00:03:04,265
Speaker 2: she had spoken more about how wonderful the benefits of sunscreener.

59
00:03:04,985 --> 00:03:09,545
Speaker 2: So my skincare journey and me really delving into it

60
00:03:09,825 --> 00:03:13,265
Speaker 2: probably was around the age of like twenty seven twenty eight,

61
00:03:14,105 --> 00:03:19,945
Speaker 2: and it was just about finding products that did really

62
00:03:19,945 --> 00:03:22,785
Speaker 2: great things for my skin. So before I just used

63
00:03:22,825 --> 00:03:24,705
Speaker 2: to watch my face sometimes I was that person who

64
00:03:24,745 --> 00:03:26,185
Speaker 2: slept in my makeup most nights.

65
00:03:26,385 --> 00:03:29,425
Speaker 1: I just I want to go back and keep pry'll

66
00:03:29,505 --> 00:03:31,785
Speaker 1: do it. We all do it.

67
00:03:30,505 --> 00:03:34,225
Speaker 2: It's so gross, though, I think about it now and

68
00:03:34,265 --> 00:03:37,465
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, the pause. Yeah, I just kind of

69
00:03:37,505 --> 00:03:40,465
Speaker 2: started finding products. It worked really well for my skin.

70
00:03:40,625 --> 00:03:43,025
Speaker 2: I would say that I'm more of a dry skin,

71
00:03:43,265 --> 00:03:45,985
Speaker 2: a bit more of a reptile than I am oily,

72
00:03:46,585 --> 00:03:51,865
Speaker 2: and so my skin loves all hyaluronic acids. Vitamin C

73
00:03:52,625 --> 00:03:56,265
Speaker 2: is one of my favorite products. Hyaluronic acid is a

74
00:03:56,385 --> 00:04:00,225
Speaker 2: definite second fave. It's just been a journey and I

75
00:04:00,465 --> 00:04:03,185
Speaker 2: have loved every second of it, you know, trying anti

76
00:04:03,265 --> 00:04:06,745
Speaker 2: products and falling in love with different brands and seeing

77
00:04:07,185 --> 00:04:09,585
Speaker 2: the benefits of it, and watching my skin just get

78
00:04:09,905 --> 00:04:11,945
Speaker 2: better and better almost as I get older.

79
00:04:12,345 --> 00:04:15,065
Speaker 3: That's the bloody dream. You're my kind of gal.

80
00:04:15,425 --> 00:04:18,625
Speaker 4: I've also got like tree Buck skin when it comes

81
00:04:18,665 --> 00:04:22,065
Speaker 4: to hydration. But you do have a beautiful, glowing skin.

82
00:04:22,105 --> 00:04:24,305
Speaker 4: So I can't wait to get into your skin careuteene.

83
00:04:24,385 --> 00:04:28,025
Speaker 4: Before we do, though, I wanted to ask, being in

84
00:04:28,065 --> 00:04:30,745
Speaker 4: the online world, what are some skincare trends that you've

85
00:04:31,025 --> 00:04:32,745
Speaker 4: noticed pop up recently?

86
00:04:33,345 --> 00:04:36,625
Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously the skin cycling. I've seen a lot.

87
00:04:36,425 --> 00:04:40,265
Speaker 2: Of that, and I think that's fantastic, Like my skin

88
00:04:40,465 --> 00:04:43,425
Speaker 2: responds really well to that. Actually, I've seen lots of

89
00:04:43,465 --> 00:04:45,985
Speaker 2: different ones come up, but for me, that's basically like

90
00:04:46,185 --> 00:04:50,665
Speaker 2: using an exfoliating serum first night, a retinal serum the second,

91
00:04:50,665 --> 00:04:53,385
Speaker 2: and then the last two nights is heavy on the

92
00:04:53,865 --> 00:04:57,425
Speaker 2: hyaluronic acids and just putting back in all that moisture

93
00:04:57,465 --> 00:04:59,305
Speaker 2: and stuff and then repeating it.

94
00:04:59,545 --> 00:05:01,065
Speaker 1: So that's a trend that I.

95
00:05:00,985 --> 00:05:05,065
Speaker 2: Think is has been around recently and rightly, so like,

96
00:05:05,105 --> 00:05:08,425
Speaker 2: I think it's actually really good and really beneficial.

97
00:05:07,945 --> 00:05:08,345
Speaker 1: For the skin.

98
00:05:08,545 --> 00:05:10,905
Speaker 4: Every other week we have a guest on that is

99
00:05:10,945 --> 00:05:13,425
Speaker 4: talking about skin cycling and how good it is because

100
00:05:13,465 --> 00:05:16,265
Speaker 4: I feel like, you know, in the beauty industry today,

101
00:05:16,265 --> 00:05:19,185
Speaker 4: there's so much out there, so many different products you

102
00:05:19,225 --> 00:05:22,865
Speaker 4: want to try, and people, you know, during COVID, after COVID,

103
00:05:22,865 --> 00:05:25,825
Speaker 4: we're just going ham on different ingredients on their skin.

104
00:05:25,865 --> 00:05:28,225
Speaker 4: So it's really kind of helped us pull back. Yeah,

105
00:05:28,265 --> 00:05:30,065
Speaker 4: as you said, it's nothing new, but it's helped us

106
00:05:30,105 --> 00:05:32,225
Speaker 4: kind of pull back and you know, actually give our

107
00:05:32,225 --> 00:05:34,665
Speaker 4: skin what it needs rather than just being like you

108
00:05:34,705 --> 00:05:35,465
Speaker 4: will love this.

109
00:05:36,065 --> 00:05:36,865
Speaker 1: Yeah.

110
00:05:36,985 --> 00:05:39,585
Speaker 2: I really like the simplicity of it because I even

111
00:05:39,625 --> 00:05:42,585
Speaker 2: for me, when I first started getting into my skincare journey,

112
00:05:42,625 --> 00:05:46,905
Speaker 2: I was like, wow, it was so overwhelming because there

113
00:05:46,945 --> 00:05:49,625
Speaker 2: are so many products and you're like what does that do?

114
00:05:49,705 --> 00:05:50,745
Speaker 1: What does that do? Like?

115
00:05:51,025 --> 00:05:54,145
Speaker 2: Do I need thirty products or can I just do four?

116
00:05:54,545 --> 00:05:57,465
Speaker 2: Like it is overwhelming? So I do like the simplicity

117
00:05:57,585 --> 00:06:00,385
Speaker 2: of skin cycling, and I think it kind of tackles

118
00:06:00,425 --> 00:06:04,105
Speaker 2: all the main areas of concern for me, especially, So yeah,

119
00:06:04,105 --> 00:06:05,545
Speaker 2: I think it's a really good one if you are

120
00:06:05,705 --> 00:06:09,825
Speaker 2: getting into it, I mean, what is yourself care?

121
00:06:10,265 --> 00:06:12,865
Speaker 1: Give us the dirty?

122
00:06:13,945 --> 00:06:18,625
Speaker 4: Would you describe your current routine as a little more minimalistic.

123
00:06:18,265 --> 00:06:19,185
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely.

124
00:06:19,305 --> 00:06:24,145
Speaker 2: I've massively scaled back on a lot of products. In

125
00:06:24,185 --> 00:06:27,145
Speaker 2: the morning, I basically will get out of the shower

126
00:06:27,465 --> 00:06:31,025
Speaker 2: and I'm vitamin C always every morning.

127
00:06:31,145 --> 00:06:33,625
Speaker 4: When you get in the show, do you cleanse with

128
00:06:33,705 --> 00:06:35,585
Speaker 4: anything or you just wash your face with water.

129
00:06:35,705 --> 00:06:36,625
Speaker 1: First thing in the morning.

130
00:06:36,665 --> 00:06:39,465
Speaker 2: I just washed my face with water because I've done,

131
00:06:39,705 --> 00:06:43,265
Speaker 2: you know, my nightly routine the night before. I've obviously

132
00:06:43,305 --> 00:06:45,305
Speaker 2: got my night creams and stuff on, but I won't

133
00:06:45,785 --> 00:06:46,505
Speaker 2: cleanse then.

134
00:06:46,625 --> 00:06:47,905
Speaker 1: I just wash it with water.

135
00:06:48,105 --> 00:06:50,425
Speaker 4: And I feel if you've got dry or kind of

136
00:06:50,585 --> 00:06:53,865
Speaker 4: sensorized skin, just washing it with water in the morning

137
00:06:53,945 --> 00:06:56,105
Speaker 4: is like, I notice such a big difference when I

138
00:06:56,185 --> 00:06:58,545
Speaker 4: just switched to using water rather than cleansing my skin

139
00:06:58,545 --> 00:07:01,425
Speaker 4: in the morning. So I'm on board that you mentioned

140
00:07:01,585 --> 00:07:04,665
Speaker 4: vitamin C. What vitamin C do you like and why?

141
00:07:05,065 --> 00:07:06,985
Speaker 4: Because it's hard to choose vitamin C. I feel like

142
00:07:07,025 --> 00:07:08,905
Speaker 4: it either really stings your face or.

143
00:07:09,105 --> 00:07:13,185
Speaker 2: Yeah, some that are really potent and smell like Ham. Look,

144
00:07:13,345 --> 00:07:16,745
Speaker 2: I kind of alternate between three different vitamin c's.

145
00:07:17,145 --> 00:07:20,225
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's cheating. Like there's three brands

146
00:07:20,225 --> 00:07:20,585
Speaker 1: that I like.

147
00:07:20,625 --> 00:07:24,105
Speaker 2: There's an aspect brand their visa that I really like.

148
00:07:24,665 --> 00:07:28,425
Speaker 2: I love the skin Suiticles.

149
00:07:28,025 --> 00:07:30,785
Speaker 3: Yes, the Sea.

150
00:07:29,745 --> 00:07:31,905
Speaker 1: Yes, and that's the one that smells like Ham.

151
00:07:32,065 --> 00:07:33,545
Speaker 3: Yes, it does off Ham.

152
00:07:33,585 --> 00:07:34,905
Speaker 1: It's cam.

153
00:07:35,025 --> 00:07:36,785
Speaker 2: But what I find and what I love about that

154
00:07:36,945 --> 00:07:38,825
Speaker 2: is you don't need a lot like you can just

155
00:07:38,865 --> 00:07:41,705
Speaker 2: do like one or two dots and pad it on

156
00:07:41,745 --> 00:07:44,665
Speaker 2: your skin. And then there's another one that I really

157
00:07:44,705 --> 00:07:46,265
Speaker 2: like as well, Ultraceuticals.

158
00:07:46,545 --> 00:07:50,825
Speaker 1: Yes, similar to skin Suiticles. Ultraceuticals is also really good.

159
00:07:50,865 --> 00:07:54,945
Speaker 2: So they've got an ultraca and all three of those

160
00:07:55,345 --> 00:07:57,985
Speaker 2: don't make me break out, not that I have sensitive skin,

161
00:07:58,065 --> 00:07:59,705
Speaker 2: but my skin takes really well to them.

162
00:07:59,785 --> 00:08:03,345
Speaker 4: And what's interesting is they're all like cosmaceutical skin care products,

163
00:08:03,385 --> 00:08:06,705
Speaker 4: so they're all, you know, quite science backed. Yes, skin

164
00:08:06,705 --> 00:08:10,065
Speaker 4: care products. I'm a big fan of skin cuticles. Well,

165
00:08:10,185 --> 00:08:12,305
Speaker 4: what kind of changes do you notice in your skin

166
00:08:12,425 --> 00:08:15,345
Speaker 4: when you're using vitamin C as opposed to not using it?

167
00:08:15,625 --> 00:08:19,425
Speaker 2: My skin is glowy when I am not using vitamin C.

168
00:08:19,785 --> 00:08:22,545
Speaker 2: I just not that I look gray, but I just

169
00:08:22,585 --> 00:08:25,625
Speaker 2: don't have that brightness about me. And I do feel

170
00:08:25,665 --> 00:08:28,545
Speaker 2: like it just really brightens and gives my skin that

171
00:08:28,625 --> 00:08:31,505
Speaker 2: extra kind of glow, which I just love.

172
00:08:31,785 --> 00:08:33,345
Speaker 3: We're all about the glow more glows.

173
00:08:33,505 --> 00:08:34,545
Speaker 1: We are, Yes, we are.

174
00:08:34,745 --> 00:08:36,745
Speaker 3: What other serums are in your routine? I think you

175
00:08:37,025 --> 00:08:40,745
Speaker 3: mentioned tyaluronic acid. Oh, this guy.

176
00:08:40,905 --> 00:08:44,105
Speaker 1: Acid just honestly bath me in the stuff. My whole

177
00:08:44,145 --> 00:08:46,265
Speaker 1: body needs hluronic acid to be honest.

178
00:08:46,465 --> 00:08:47,585
Speaker 3: What's your favorite brand?

179
00:08:48,065 --> 00:08:50,625
Speaker 1: So it's the Ultraceuticals Ultra B.

180
00:08:50,785 --> 00:08:55,465
Speaker 2: It's a hydrating serum, but it's got like triple hyaluronic acid.

181
00:08:56,105 --> 00:08:58,705
Speaker 2: It's got like a pro vitamin B five and a

182
00:08:58,745 --> 00:09:02,945
Speaker 2: B three And I've just found that in terms of

183
00:09:02,985 --> 00:09:07,145
Speaker 2: the hyaluronic acid and adding loads and loads of moisture

184
00:09:07,225 --> 00:09:09,625
Speaker 2: and hydration into my skin, that has been an abs

185
00:09:09,945 --> 00:09:10,505
Speaker 2: game changer.

186
00:09:10,745 --> 00:09:12,825
Speaker 4: That's not like a creamy formula, is it. That's more

187
00:09:12,865 --> 00:09:14,625
Speaker 4: like of a watery formula.

188
00:09:14,705 --> 00:09:16,505
Speaker 1: It's like a clear serum.

189
00:09:16,705 --> 00:09:18,185
Speaker 2: And then the other one, what I want to give

190
00:09:18,185 --> 00:09:20,945
Speaker 2: a very special mention to is cosmetics.

191
00:09:21,465 --> 00:09:22,585
Speaker 3: Do you know cosmetics?

192
00:09:22,665 --> 00:09:26,505
Speaker 2: They have one which is called skin Thirst, and it's

193
00:09:26,545 --> 00:09:30,345
Speaker 2: like a hyaluronic acid, but it's a moisturizing cream.

194
00:09:30,865 --> 00:09:32,105
Speaker 1: It's a little bit thicker.

195
00:09:32,305 --> 00:09:34,905
Speaker 2: I use the Skin Thirst before i do my makeup

196
00:09:34,905 --> 00:09:36,945
Speaker 2: in the morning, or if I'm going to an event,

197
00:09:37,225 --> 00:09:39,545
Speaker 2: whereas the serum's really good and I just kind of

198
00:09:39,625 --> 00:09:42,105
Speaker 2: let that soak into my skin. It's I have been

199
00:09:43,025 --> 00:09:46,625
Speaker 2: pumping that onto my skin morning and night all throughout winter,

200
00:09:46,745 --> 00:09:48,225
Speaker 2: and it's been my saving grace.

201
00:09:48,825 --> 00:09:50,105
Speaker 3: Ultrauticals is so good.

202
00:09:50,105 --> 00:09:53,265
Speaker 4: Look at you and all your fancy cosmaceutical skincare.

203
00:09:53,905 --> 00:09:55,705
Speaker 3: This guy, you know what.

204
00:09:55,825 --> 00:09:57,425
Speaker 1: I always used to be like, Oh, why would you

205
00:09:57,425 --> 00:09:58,345
Speaker 1: spend so much money?

206
00:09:58,425 --> 00:10:01,145
Speaker 2: And that's such, But it is the best investment I've

207
00:10:01,145 --> 00:10:03,905
Speaker 2: ever made. And it's the one thing, like even if

208
00:10:04,625 --> 00:10:06,585
Speaker 2: Ryan loses his job and I lose my job, I

209
00:10:06,585 --> 00:10:06,945
Speaker 2: will be.

210
00:10:06,945 --> 00:10:10,505
Speaker 1: Like, that is my one vice. Skincare not bud.

211
00:10:10,825 --> 00:10:12,945
Speaker 4: We are poor, but I have good skin at least,

212
00:10:13,025 --> 00:10:21,945
Speaker 4: and that's all that. Ye tell me a little bit

213
00:10:21,945 --> 00:10:25,185
Speaker 4: about your nighttime routine. So when you get home, you

214
00:10:25,225 --> 00:10:29,745
Speaker 4: know from podcasting radio, a day of all of the things,

215
00:10:29,865 --> 00:10:30,665
Speaker 4: where do you start?

216
00:10:31,185 --> 00:10:34,945
Speaker 2: So I will usually get in the shower and I

217
00:10:35,105 --> 00:10:38,705
Speaker 2: will cleanse my face in there. My favorite old time

218
00:10:38,905 --> 00:10:41,305
Speaker 2: cleanser is the Aspect purestat five.

219
00:10:42,065 --> 00:10:46,345
Speaker 1: It is like a clear green serum type cleanser.

220
00:10:46,585 --> 00:10:47,545
Speaker 3: Is it a jail cleanser.

221
00:10:47,825 --> 00:10:49,025
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like a jail cleanser.

222
00:10:49,145 --> 00:10:52,065
Speaker 2: Yep. Takes off all my makeup. I usually will do

223
00:10:52,145 --> 00:10:55,185
Speaker 2: two cleansers. What I used to do before that was

224
00:10:55,225 --> 00:10:57,945
Speaker 2: I would do with oil cleanser to kind of do

225
00:10:58,065 --> 00:11:01,265
Speaker 2: all my makeup, like especially my Masca and whatnot.

226
00:11:01,385 --> 00:11:02,625
Speaker 1: I do love an oil cleanser.

227
00:11:02,665 --> 00:11:05,785
Speaker 2: I've just literally run out of one, so I should

228
00:11:05,825 --> 00:11:07,225
Speaker 2: probably invest in enough of it.

229
00:11:07,745 --> 00:11:09,665
Speaker 4: Well, there's tons of good ones out there. Let me

230
00:11:09,745 --> 00:11:12,145
Speaker 4: tell you lots of great oil cleansers and balms.

231
00:11:12,185 --> 00:11:15,145
Speaker 2: So there's actually so many good oil cleansers, right, what's

232
00:11:15,185 --> 00:11:15,825
Speaker 2: your favorite?

233
00:11:15,985 --> 00:11:16,145
Speaker 1: Oh?

234
00:11:16,225 --> 00:11:18,105
Speaker 3: Oh, we do my skin cautine.

235
00:11:18,145 --> 00:11:21,585
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, No, I actually really like the Alpha H

236
00:11:21,665 --> 00:11:22,505
Speaker 4: cleansing Bomb.

237
00:11:23,305 --> 00:11:24,665
Speaker 3: It's kind of like a tub.

238
00:11:24,705 --> 00:11:26,505
Speaker 4: It's annoying you have to like stick your hands in,

239
00:11:26,625 --> 00:11:29,105
Speaker 4: but it's actually a really, really nice formula and great

240
00:11:29,105 --> 00:11:30,145
Speaker 4: for taking off your makeup.

241
00:11:30,265 --> 00:11:31,905
Speaker 1: And so do you do it in the shower?

242
00:11:32,345 --> 00:11:32,585
Speaker 3: Yes?

243
00:11:32,745 --> 00:11:35,465
Speaker 4: I do, and I have to like literally stand out

244
00:11:35,465 --> 00:11:37,025
Speaker 4: and do it a little bit, you know what I mean,

245
00:11:37,105 --> 00:11:42,385
Speaker 4: because you're you're Yeah. Also, there's nothing worse than getting

246
00:11:42,425 --> 00:11:44,545
Speaker 4: out of the shower after you've done your cleanse and

247
00:11:44,585 --> 00:11:46,745
Speaker 4: everything and then kind of wiping your face and you're like,

248
00:11:46,745 --> 00:11:50,985
Speaker 4: oh my god, there's more makeup, Like how how's still more?

249
00:11:52,585 --> 00:11:55,105
Speaker 4: So tell me you've done your cleanse you at the shower.

250
00:11:55,345 --> 00:11:58,425
Speaker 4: What kind of serums make up your nighttime skin caroutine?

251
00:11:58,545 --> 00:12:01,425
Speaker 2: Obviously, if I'm doing like the skin cycling, if I'm

252
00:12:01,465 --> 00:12:03,945
Speaker 2: on let's say Night one of the skin cycling, I

253
00:12:04,065 --> 00:12:07,145
Speaker 2: will do like an exfoliating serum. I really love this

254
00:12:07,225 --> 00:12:08,745
Speaker 2: Sunday Riley Good Jeens.

255
00:12:08,825 --> 00:12:09,625
Speaker 3: Yet like the gases.

256
00:12:10,065 --> 00:12:13,625
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good time and it's a little bit

257
00:12:13,665 --> 00:12:15,945
Speaker 2: tingly on my skin, which I actually love.

258
00:12:16,625 --> 00:12:17,665
Speaker 1: I love the feeling of that.

259
00:12:17,745 --> 00:12:19,985
Speaker 2: But so say I'm on Night one, I will actually

260
00:12:20,145 --> 00:12:23,745
Speaker 2: use their lactic acid serum and then I'll just leave

261
00:12:23,785 --> 00:12:25,985
Speaker 2: my skin for a little bit, you know, I'll go

262
00:12:26,025 --> 00:12:27,545
Speaker 2: and put the kids to bed or something and just

263
00:12:27,625 --> 00:12:29,425
Speaker 2: let that soak in for a little bit and then

264
00:12:29,465 --> 00:12:31,905
Speaker 2: I'll come back and I'll just miss I'll use the

265
00:12:31,945 --> 00:12:34,505
Speaker 2: hyaluronic acid, and then I'll use like quite.

266
00:12:34,305 --> 00:12:35,545
Speaker 1: A thick night cream.

267
00:12:36,385 --> 00:12:40,545
Speaker 2: I was actually using a dermalogical one, but that's run out,

268
00:12:40,545 --> 00:12:42,625
Speaker 2: and now I'm using the este Lauder.

269
00:12:42,505 --> 00:12:43,505
Speaker 3: Advanced Night Repair.

270
00:12:43,745 --> 00:12:45,185
Speaker 1: Yes, that's it off.

271
00:12:45,265 --> 00:12:46,265
Speaker 3: It's so nice.

272
00:12:46,425 --> 00:12:50,305
Speaker 2: It's really thick as well, and it does feel like

273
00:12:50,585 --> 00:12:52,065
Speaker 2: silk going on my skin.

274
00:12:52,625 --> 00:12:56,225
Speaker 1: If I'm on day two of like a skin.

275
00:12:56,025 --> 00:12:59,785
Speaker 2: Cycle, I'm using a retinol and I use the aspect

276
00:13:00,065 --> 00:13:04,545
Speaker 2: x fole a. I have done a journey on retinol.

277
00:13:04,865 --> 00:13:06,545
Speaker 2: My skin does not like vitamin A.

278
00:13:07,065 --> 00:13:07,385
Speaker 1: You know that.

279
00:13:07,425 --> 00:13:09,265
Speaker 2: Everyone's like you got to push pass, you got to

280
00:13:09,265 --> 00:13:12,865
Speaker 2: push part the purging and keep on it. And I

281
00:13:12,985 --> 00:13:15,745
Speaker 2: swear I was using retinol trying to, you know, build

282
00:13:15,825 --> 00:13:18,105
Speaker 2: up the tolerance, and my skin was like just piss

283
00:13:18,185 --> 00:13:21,705
Speaker 2: off and it kept popping up with pimples everywhere, you know,

284
00:13:21,745 --> 00:13:24,065
Speaker 2: those tiny little white heads that would just come up.

285
00:13:24,505 --> 00:13:26,385
Speaker 3: You're like, this is not getting better.

286
00:13:26,825 --> 00:13:27,865
Speaker 1: I was like, when does the.

287
00:13:27,825 --> 00:13:31,545
Speaker 2: Purging end, guys, because there's no purging end.

288
00:13:31,425 --> 00:13:33,905
Speaker 3: In sight right now, So how often do you use

289
00:13:33,945 --> 00:13:34,385
Speaker 3: it now?

290
00:13:34,785 --> 00:13:37,225
Speaker 1: I still only use it like once or twice a week.

291
00:13:37,345 --> 00:13:39,345
Speaker 3: But that's the thing. You've got to just do what

292
00:13:39,425 --> 00:13:40,465
Speaker 3: works for your skin.

293
00:13:40,985 --> 00:13:43,625
Speaker 4: Yes, Like some people can use it every night or

294
00:13:43,625 --> 00:13:46,785
Speaker 4: every second night and like really really high percentages. But

295
00:13:46,865 --> 00:13:49,225
Speaker 4: then if you've got dry skin or sensitive and you're

296
00:13:49,265 --> 00:13:52,265
Speaker 4: like it doesn't want that, it's peeling off.

297
00:13:52,785 --> 00:13:55,065
Speaker 2: Yeah. And I think when you've got oily or like

298
00:13:55,105 --> 00:13:58,665
Speaker 2: combination skin, I think that kind of skin works really

299
00:13:58,705 --> 00:14:01,065
Speaker 2: well with retinol. But for me, I'm already like a

300
00:14:01,105 --> 00:14:05,345
Speaker 2: Goanna and I'm already quite dry retinal and me, I

301
00:14:05,345 --> 00:14:08,545
Speaker 2: obviously want to build it into my skincare routine, but

302
00:14:08,745 --> 00:14:10,985
Speaker 2: just not as equin as I think other people can

303
00:14:11,065 --> 00:14:11,345
Speaker 2: use it.

304
00:14:11,505 --> 00:14:13,945
Speaker 4: But Aspect is like gentle enough for your skin.

305
00:14:14,305 --> 00:14:17,425
Speaker 2: Yes, the x fol A is what I've found has

306
00:14:17,505 --> 00:14:19,545
Speaker 2: been gentle enough for my skin. And I can use

307
00:14:19,585 --> 00:14:21,465
Speaker 2: that twice a week and it won't make me break

308
00:14:21,505 --> 00:14:22,065
Speaker 2: out anymore.

309
00:14:22,265 --> 00:14:23,025
Speaker 3: Okay, love it.

310
00:14:23,065 --> 00:14:26,185
Speaker 4: So you've got your Sunday Riley lactic acid and your

311
00:14:26,265 --> 00:14:27,505
Speaker 4: Aspect retinol.

312
00:14:28,065 --> 00:14:29,625
Speaker 3: Yes, that seems like a good combo.

313
00:14:30,025 --> 00:14:30,865
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then.

314
00:14:30,745 --> 00:14:34,105
Speaker 2: I'll do every night always with the hyaluronic acids and

315
00:14:34,145 --> 00:14:34,945
Speaker 2: my night cream.

316
00:14:35,065 --> 00:14:36,265
Speaker 1: Oh and then I've got.

317
00:14:36,025 --> 00:14:41,825
Speaker 2: The skin suticles AGEI complex. Yes, so they have like

318
00:14:42,105 --> 00:14:44,665
Speaker 2: a cream version of that for your whole face as well,

319
00:14:44,705 --> 00:14:45,745
Speaker 2: I think do they?

320
00:14:45,865 --> 00:14:49,065
Speaker 4: They do, and it's really bloody lash. It's really nice.

321
00:14:49,225 --> 00:14:51,145
Speaker 4: So you love this icream, then.

322
00:14:51,305 --> 00:14:52,705
Speaker 1: Yeah I do. I really like it.

323
00:14:52,705 --> 00:14:54,665
Speaker 2: One of my girlfriends, Jade, got me onto it and

324
00:14:54,705 --> 00:14:56,865
Speaker 2: it's just really really nice. I will put that on

325
00:14:57,625 --> 00:15:00,705
Speaker 2: every single night before bed. I don't know do I

326
00:15:00,825 --> 00:15:01,465
Speaker 2: cream's work.

327
00:15:01,545 --> 00:15:04,345
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. I'm still wrinkly as hell underneath my.

328
00:15:04,305 --> 00:15:07,745
Speaker 2: Eyes, but I think i'd probably be wrinklyer if I

329
00:15:07,825 --> 00:15:08,545
Speaker 2: didn't use them.

330
00:15:08,625 --> 00:15:11,745
Speaker 4: Right, we've got I hope that those tiny, really expensive

331
00:15:11,825 --> 00:15:14,985
Speaker 4: jars do something, because God, we're trying.

332
00:15:15,065 --> 00:15:16,025
Speaker 3: We're trying try.

333
00:15:16,385 --> 00:15:19,145
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's pretty much like I said.

334
00:15:19,225 --> 00:15:23,545
Speaker 2: I think lately I've really pulled back on having loads

335
00:15:23,585 --> 00:15:26,865
Speaker 2: and loads of different serums and loads and loads of

336
00:15:26,865 --> 00:15:27,825
Speaker 2: different layers.

337
00:15:28,265 --> 00:15:30,185
Speaker 1: I mean, I love a sheep mask. I try and

338
00:15:30,185 --> 00:15:32,865
Speaker 1: do a sheep mask twice a week. I'm not working

339
00:15:32,865 --> 00:15:35,105
Speaker 1: with Aspect, although I do use a lot of their products.

340
00:15:35,265 --> 00:15:38,505
Speaker 1: I love the Aspect hydrating sheet masks.

341
00:15:39,025 --> 00:15:43,265
Speaker 2: They're so so hydrating that like sometimes even my skin's

342
00:15:43,305 --> 00:15:47,065
Speaker 2: like whoa, there's so much hydration too much take it back, Yeah,

343
00:15:47,145 --> 00:15:49,425
Speaker 2: which is never a bad thing. But they're so so

344
00:15:49,665 --> 00:15:51,105
Speaker 2: lush for your skin, and they're.

345
00:15:50,945 --> 00:15:53,585
Speaker 1: Just powerful in terms of adding in.

346
00:15:53,545 --> 00:15:58,065
Speaker 2: Loads of hyaluronic acid and B five and moisture, and

347
00:15:58,185 --> 00:16:01,425
Speaker 2: your skin the next morning you're just like a newborn baby.

348
00:16:01,145 --> 00:16:05,025
Speaker 4: The best, like pre event things. Yes, talk to me

349
00:16:05,025 --> 00:16:07,425
Speaker 4: a little bit about skin treatments. Have you got anything

350
00:16:07,425 --> 00:16:09,745
Speaker 4: that you like to do on the regular or are

351
00:16:09,785 --> 00:16:12,305
Speaker 4: you like an at home or like an in clinic

352
00:16:12,585 --> 00:16:13,145
Speaker 4: kind of fan.

353
00:16:13,505 --> 00:16:17,865
Speaker 2: I do have the omnilux led face mask, the Contour

354
00:16:17,865 --> 00:16:18,385
Speaker 2: face mask.

355
00:16:18,785 --> 00:16:19,745
Speaker 1: I actually bought.

356
00:16:19,505 --> 00:16:22,785
Speaker 2: One of them about five years ago. If I can

357
00:16:22,865 --> 00:16:25,145
Speaker 2: use that thing three to four times a week, it's

358
00:16:25,185 --> 00:16:28,185
Speaker 2: only ten minutes, my skin is the best it will

359
00:16:28,185 --> 00:16:31,705
Speaker 2: ever be. It just plumps my skin right up. Obviously,

360
00:16:31,745 --> 00:16:34,505
Speaker 2: when you know, life gets really really busy, even though

361
00:16:34,505 --> 00:16:37,745
Speaker 2: it's only ten minutes. Sometimes I'll just forget right. It'll

362
00:16:37,785 --> 00:16:40,065
Speaker 2: get packed away, like at the moment we're renovating, so

363
00:16:40,105 --> 00:16:42,385
Speaker 2: it's been packed away in my garage and who knows

364
00:16:42,385 --> 00:16:42,745
Speaker 2: where it.

365
00:16:42,745 --> 00:16:45,025
Speaker 4: Is, and sometimes you can't find the lead to like

366
00:16:45,265 --> 00:16:49,625
Speaker 4: charge it, like misass thing, use consistently. As you said,

367
00:16:49,745 --> 00:16:52,705
Speaker 4: you notice really great results and it is worth the money.

368
00:16:52,745 --> 00:16:54,545
Speaker 4: But you're kind of like, you gotta use it.

369
00:16:54,905 --> 00:16:57,345
Speaker 2: So many people ask me about it, and I'm like, yeah, listen,

370
00:16:57,385 --> 00:17:00,345
Speaker 2: it is a great investment if you use it regularly.

371
00:17:00,585 --> 00:17:02,545
Speaker 2: If you're just going to pull it out once a week,

372
00:17:02,985 --> 00:17:05,745
Speaker 2: four times a month, you probably won't notice any difference

373
00:17:05,785 --> 00:17:08,585
Speaker 2: in your skin. If you use it consistently, you will

374
00:17:08,625 --> 00:17:10,505
Speaker 2: absolutely notice. It's worth the money.

375
00:17:18,665 --> 00:17:21,905
Speaker 4: Hit, You've been one of the greatest discoveries of all time.

376
00:17:22,345 --> 00:17:25,865

00:17:34,585 --> 00:17:35,225

Speaker 2: No rules, I do love that. What do I hate

382
00:17:42,905 --> 00:17:45,305
Speaker 2: One of the things that I hate, which I mean

383
00:17:45,345 --> 00:17:47,465
Speaker 2: I only hate it because so time consuming?

384
00:17:47,545 --> 00:17:48,905
Speaker 1: Is you know all the.

385
00:17:49,105 --> 00:17:52,545

Speaker 1: And I've got all the products.

387
00:17:54,305 --> 00:17:56,505
Speaker 2: And I remember I jumped onto YouTube once and I

388
00:17:56,585 --> 00:17:59,185
Speaker 2: watched this lady and she was doing it right, and

389
00:17:59,225 --> 00:18:01,825
Speaker 2: I was like, wow, this is very beautiful.

390
00:18:01,345 --> 00:18:04,025
Speaker 1: And it does. But the YouTube thing was like ten minutes,

391
00:18:04,465 --> 00:18:06,865
Speaker 1: and I was like, who has ten minutes?

392
00:18:06,945 --> 00:18:10,065
Speaker 2: To run a rose quarts over their face every night,

393
00:18:10,185 --> 00:18:12,865
Speaker 2: like doing my skin care is already long enough. I

394
00:18:12,985 --> 00:18:14,985
Speaker 2: want to be that person, but I'm never going to

395
00:18:15,025 --> 00:18:16,785
Speaker 2: be that person, so I can'ta hate that.
