00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,119
Speaker 1: jade roller. She was doing this other one that looked

Speaker 1: like it had like spokes in it, and she was

21
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: rolling on her face. I was like, well, now I

22
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: have to go get that. She always has a face

23
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: mask on, she's always doing like some massages. I just

24
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: do whatever she's doing. But it don't it don't turn

25
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: out the same. You do not use it because my

26
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: products ain't right. Sometimes I feel like it's the products.

27
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: And I used to really be into the makeup and

28
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: I realized, hey, that makeup is no good of that

29
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: skin underneath there is not right. I'm t T and

30
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: I'm Zachiah and from Spotify Studios. This is Dope Labs.

31
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: So today we're talking about skin and we're covering all

32
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: things skin. Skin that's too dry, skin that's probably too oily,

33
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: skin that is loose and hanging down some Yeah, there's that.

34
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: How skin you're trying to tighten up, skin, you want

35
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: to plump, skin, you want to rejuvenate, Yeah, how to

36
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: protect it? How do if you got skin that's good,

37
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: how do you keep just that skin? How do you

38
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: keep that skin intact? Not just on your face, on

39
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: your arms and legs too. Because some of y'all not

40
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: washing them. We heard about it, and this isn't an

41
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 1: episode just for women. This episode is for everybody. Contrary

42
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: to probably believe, skincare is something that's important to all

43
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: of us. Don't think just because you have a beard

44
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: that's enough. It's not. It's not. So what do you

45
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: put on your face to try and achieve a glove?

46
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: I have a whole body routine, okay, and some of

47
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: this stuff. I know you know how wild it is

48
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: because you've been with me from the Yes, from the inception.

49
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 2: Yes.

50
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: When I first was like, we can make body scrub

51
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: with the coffee ground from the kitchen. Yeah, because I

52
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: had some hyper pigmentation on my legs and the kid.

53
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: I was like, this stuff ain't never gonna go away,

54
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: and the kid said, oh, yes, it will come into

55
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,679
Speaker 1: the kitchen. Friend and she made a whole mason jar

56
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 1: full of it was like coffee grounds, coconut oil, some

57
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: other sof like essentral olsche. The show notes she's gonna

58
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 1: drop the recipe. I'm gonna cook you' all up. And

59
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,839
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, this is my friend's stuff. I'm

60
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: gonna try it. And so every night I would use

61
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: this coffee scrub on my legs. It was so good,

62
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: It was so good. It was probably one of the

63
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: best body scrubs I have ever owned in my life,

64
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: and it was free. I got it from my friend.

65
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: And let me tell you something, that hyperpigmentation I had

66
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: on my legs gone scrub it away, it away. I

67
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: don't even really understand how that works, because I felt

68
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: like I was doing all the right things and then

69
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Takia shows up with this, this

70
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: magical jar of elixir. Yeah, it changed my life. And

71
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: I'd like to just point out, you know, this may

72
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: feel similar to another story you've heard about t t

73
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: giving me instructions on my home. Okay, well it is different,

74
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: okay to know, but okay, so she's talking about how

75
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: she how she made that banana bread in her in

76
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: her hair, and so if you haven't heard the story,

77
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: go back to Lab two Edges Snatched and you will

78
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 1: hear the banana breadhead story. But what I also want

79
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: to note again is that I just mentioned it in passing.

80
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: I didn't tell her to go do it. I didn't say, oh,

81
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: this would be so good for you. I said this

82
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: is what I heard. I hear a lot of things,

83
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 1: and I was just telling her what I had heard. Yeah,

84
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 1: it's on me, really got to evaluate your sources, you know, too,

85
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 1: trusting to trusting You can trust me, No I can.

86
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 1: So I think you know, I'm going on vacation in

87
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, and I feel like I haven't

88
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: been on a vacation that is like not working, not

89
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: doing some type of something related to work, in a

90
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: really long time. Yeah, that's very true. And so I'm

91
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: ready to but before I can unplug, I need to

92
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: get some glow first, And so started with my face.

93
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 1: I have been doing these using this face wash that

94
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: has it's supposed to be an exfoliating face wash, but

95
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't have any grains or gristle or whatever it

96
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 1: is happening. That's not like a physical exfoliant. Yeah, it's

97
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: a chemical face wash. And so I'm trying to be

98
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: careful because when you do that stuff, you know, it

99
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: makes your sensitive to the sun. So then I'm like, okay,

100
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 1: now I got up my my SPF and put on

101
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: some sunscreen because I'm ount in the sun more. And

102
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: you put me onto some sunscreen so that I don't

103
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: look like cass for the ghost, right, Because that's what

104
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: you don't realize, well that a lot of people don't realize,

105
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: is that white cast that that sunscreen puts on you,

106
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: fifty shades of gray? It makes it makes black people

107
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: look crazy. Yes, and we want to be protected from

108
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 1: the sun too, and we always have to sacrifice looking

109
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: like our regular selves and then we look like we're

110
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 1: cast get ready, Yes, and when we have that yeah,

111
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 1: when we have that sunscreen on. So there's a sunscreen

112
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: that is called Black Girl's Sunscreen that is made by

113
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: a black woman and it is so sheer and it

114
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: is so moisturizing, so that I swear by it. That's

115
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 1: what I use over my whole body. Yes, So doing

116
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: that exfoliating, getting all that winter skin off, washing my

117
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: troubles away, and then putting on SPF and then you know,

118
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna take you'll all into the serums and moisturizers.

119
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 1: But if you've been following me on Instagram, you've seen

120
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: me do a face mask routine. And then for the body,

121
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 1: you gotta have a whole body scrub and you really

122
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: got to hit those elbows and knees. Those are tough areas.

123
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 1: I know you feel the dead skin is not like

124
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: the other skin, so you need to do something different.

125
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 1: I have one of those exfoliating sheets. I'll do a

126
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: scrub and then come back with a sheet. It's like

127
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: coarse it's like coarse sandpaper. And then fine, right, I'm

128
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: coming back to really smooth out those those patches exactly.

129
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: And I'm the same way. So I instead of a sheet,

130
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: I have a body brush. So I have one for

131
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 1: pre shower. So I do a dry scrub of my

132
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: body drybrush to just get like all the dead skin up.

133
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,839
Speaker 1: Then I shower, and then while I'm in the shower,

134
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: I have another softer brush that I put soap on,

135
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: and I use that again all over my body to

136
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: really get all that dead skin off. Yes, and in

137
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: the age of not taking a shower, not scrubbing your legs,

138
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: it's important to really you know, people have been talking

139
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: about this thing, and so I think we really need to.

140
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,119
Speaker 1: Chosa said, she shaves her legs and that's washing her legs.

141
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: I ain't washing it, No, that's not but I'm like dirty, dirty,

142
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: and what about your ankle's boot? Like, so I think

143
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: you gotta think about that. My God, I believe in

144
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: scrubbing all of those areas. And then I have like

145
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: a pumming stone even for scrubbing under my nails. I

146
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: have a little brush at my sink in my house

147
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,480

Speaker 1: an expert. Yes. The authority, the absolute authority, So everything

155
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: she says, take it as bible. Yeah, so we have

156
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: the authority on all things skincare, so we're gonna handle

157
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: the science T T. I always go to you whenever

158
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: there is anything listed in my skincare and I'm like,

159
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: does this really work? It says nanoparticles. Is that true? Yeah,

160
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: So I will be covering everything that has to do

161
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: with the nano materials that are that is in skincare

162
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: and some of the chemistry and Zakia. I always go

163
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,199
Speaker 1: to you if it's if it has anything to do

164
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: with something that has a cell, which is all skin. Yeah,

165
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: I'm asking Zekiah because I'm like, I don't know how

166
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: this works. It's saying that it's gonna renew my skin.

167
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: Is that possible? Let's get to it. Let's jump into

168
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: the recitation, all right, So we're gonna start off with

169
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: all things skincare. You gotta understand skin first. Most of

170
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: you have skin, okay, and so your skin is made

171
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: of three major layers. There's the epidermis, which is the

172
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: top layer that's exposed to the air and everything else.

173
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: Beneath the epidermist is the dermis or what you'll hear

174
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: people call the dermal layer. And then underneath that is

175
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: subcutaneous fat. So the epidermis is really a thin layer.

176
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 1: It's that top layer, and then the dermist is the

177
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: second layer under that, and it's a lot thicker, and

178
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: that's where like your hair follicles and sweat glands are.

179
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: You might remember us talking about that in Lap two

180
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: as well. And then underneath the dermist is the subcutaneous fat.

181
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 1: And actually in the subcutaneous fat layer, it has connective

182
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: tissues that keeps your dermis like, so it keeps the

183
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 1: skin that we see attached to your muscles and bones. Underneath,

184
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: you lose that fat and that's when you start to

185
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: get droopy. Droopy. I was like, snoopy, that's not right.

186
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: You get your skin looking droopy and saggy. So one

187
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: important thing that is a part of your skin is

188
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: collagen and it's found in all three of them those

189
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: layers that Zakia was talking about. And collagen is the

190
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: most abundant protein in your whole entire body, and it

191
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 1: plays a major role in your skin, your muscles, your ligaments,

192
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: and tendon Collagen fibers they give support. So collagen is

193
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: one of those major support proteins. But also elastin. So

194
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 1: people often talk about skin elasticity to give your skin

195
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: flexibility and strength. So collagen and elastin are two kind

196
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: of major components of keeping that skin looking healthy. So

197
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: let's talk about what we have questions about. I want

198
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: to know what are the chemicals that are in some

199
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 1: of these products and are they truly beneficial? Yeah? I

200
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: want to know what is the what's the cheat code? Right?

201
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: What do I need to do for just baseline glowy, dewey,

202
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: healthy skin. Right. I know I'll never look like Isa,

203
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: I'll never have those cheek bones, but I want to

204
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: try and get as close as I can. Yeah, And

205
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: so I want all the tips and tricks. Yeah, I

206
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: want that. So one of the things I want to

207
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: know is there are a lot of Instagram skincare companies.

208
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: Is some of this stuff fake? Like what's just a fad?

209
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: And what's real? What do I really need? And what

210
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 1: could I do without? And then if we know we're

211
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: losing certain components of our skin as we age, how

212
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 1: do we add them back? Can you just add them

213
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: back with a multi vitamin or should you be you know,

214
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: spreading it on what's the best way do I need

215
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: to ingest this vitamin or do I need to lay

216
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: it on top of me a vitamin blanket, a vitamin

217
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: need blanket, a collagen blank that's that I need to

218
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: be sleeping with. So another thing that I want to

219
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: know is how our skin interacts with the outside environment,

220
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 1: Like how does the air like like when you live

221
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: in like a drier climate or more humid climate like here,

222
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: how does that affect your skin?

223
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 3: Yeah?

224
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 1: And are there even long are there long term effects?

225
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: Should I be living somewhere different if I want this

226
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: skin to be dewey? All I know is that DC

227
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: two human and I gotta get out of here. Okay,

00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: like make her look not like herself. She just like

250
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,920

Speaker 2: And I generally feel like all my clients, like I

255
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 2: don't like to see a ton of compliments under my

256
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 2: client's pictures of I love your makeup, Like I like

257
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 2: sometimes like oh I love the eyes, or that's a

258
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 2: great lip color. But like my favorite thing, not that

259
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 2: Lisa doesn't have beautiful skin, but my favorite comment under

260
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 2: her pictures is like drop the skincare routine, sis, And

261
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 2: I'm like, thank you, good good. I want you guys

262
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: to think that she's got like a tap of foundation

263
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: on and that's just her skin. And she does have

264
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 2: beautiful skin, but you know what I mean, Like I'm

265
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 2: just like that's what I That's the type of comments

266
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 2: I like to see.

267
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: She also works with Regina Hall, Marseille Martin, Hannah Brofman.

268
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: Hannah Brofman yep, So who else would I go to

269
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: for all the Black Girl Magic skincare? Unlock the vault

270
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,239
Speaker 1: and show me what's inside.

271
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 2: I am obsessed with skincare, and I get a lot

272
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 2: sent to me. So it's funny because they say you

273
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 2: should kind of like try something for like thirty days

274
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 2: to really see how your skin. And I'm like, I'm

275
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 2: such a skincare whore, but I do find things that

276
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 2: I love and I'll stick with them.

277
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: We asked Joanna, what is the key skincare routine? And

278
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: so we're just gonna break it down. We're gonna give

279
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: you the science behind all of it. Buckle up, what

280
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: is the first step?

281
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 3: I used to just wash my face?

282
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 2: And then I realized that like actually removing the makeup

283
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 2: before you wash is so important. Like mysoler water, to

284
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 2: my knowledge, is oil like suspended in water. So it's

285
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 2: like a less oily version was still the action of

286
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 2: an oil breakdown of makeup. I really love the Bioderma one,

287
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 2: but I've gotten them from multiple brands, and I just

288
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 2: love the biodermo one.

289
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 3: I think it just takes off everything.

290
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: My solar water. It is oil and water. Inside of

291
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: that water, you have my cells. That's what your oil is.

292
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: And a my cell is made up of surfactant molecules,

293
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: and our surfactin molecules have a hydrophilic head and a

294
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: hydrophobic tail, and so you have all these molecules that

295
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 1: are in this water. And the hydrophobic part of it,

296
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: so it doesn't like water. They all aggregate together and

297
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: form this sphere that's called a miceell. Then you introduce

298
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: dirt by putting the mysolar water on your skin, those

299
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: hydrophobic tails attached to all the dirt, and then the

300
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: micell reforms into that sphere and takes the dirt away.

301
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: So what you're getting rid of is a my cell

302
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: with the dirt trapped inside. The dirt's trapped inside the sphere.

303
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 1: Some of y'all are just using these mysolar water on

304
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: a cotton ball and jumping right in the bed and

305
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: thinking that's enough. That's not quite it. There's another step.

306
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: There are a couple more steps. So Joanna says that

307
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: after your mysolar water comes the cleanser.

308
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 2: I prefer general cleanser. I used to use more harsh

309
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 2: when I was younger and my skin was a little

310
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 2: more oily. Now I find I like a mild cleanser

311
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 2: right now. I've been using this like shs shado while

312
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 2: so one that's like it's I think like honey in it.

313
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 2: It's like really hydrating. Muskin just feels really fresh when

314
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 2: I'm done with it.

315
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: And with cleanser. It works kind of like the micellar water,

316
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: but the cleanser probably has different components. Yeah, so probably

317
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: some strong, some combination of surfactant molecules. So a combination

318
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: of molecules that are gonna help you get even more

319
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: dirt off and really down into those poor Yeah, so

320
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: use those circular motions, y'all. So now we've hit getting

321
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 1: all the dirt off of your face. But now we're

322
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: get into something that you talked about t T renewing

323
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: that skin. So I think there's something that we really

324
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: take for granted, and that's making new skin cells. Our

325
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: body makes new skin cells from the bottom of an

326
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: epidermis layer and then they just travel up to the

327
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: top and they flake off. So that process from your

328
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: skin cells making new skin cells at the bottom of

329
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: the epidermis and traveling up to the top, that's about

330
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 1: a month, right, And so one of the ways that

331
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: people renuce skin is to exfoliate. They take that top

332
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: layer of dead skin cells. How do they get it off?

333
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: Exfoliation is the key. Yes, I need baby skin every day.

334
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 2: People go back and forth about manual versus chemical exfoliation.

335
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 2: I am a crazy person.

336
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 3: I like both.

337
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 2: I get these like little like egg shaped scrubber things

338
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 2: like off Amazon, like a pack of twelve over like

339
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 2: two dollars or whatever, and I'll use them for like

340
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 2: a week or two until they completely lose their integrity.

341
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 2: But I'll like also like put my cleanser in that

342
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 2: and like really get into my pores. And I've done

343
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 2: that since I was like fourteen, and I swear that's

344
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 2: why I really really get pimples, because it really exfoliates

345
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 2: for me. It might be too harsh for some people,

346
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 2: so I'm not like saying everyone go do that, but

347
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 2: exfoliating is key regardless.

348
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: I only use chemical exfoliators, oh really, yeah, because the

349
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 1: manual ones I felt like it was too like harsh,

350
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 1: harsh on my skin. I felt like my pores are

351
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 1: getting really big. It might've all been in my mind,

352
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: but I only use chemical exfoliators. So sail like acid,

353
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: hyaluronic acid, things like that, and I just lay that

354
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: acid on my face sometimes I'll put it, I'll put

355
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 1: my my cleanser on and I'll just let it sit

356
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: on my face for five minutes before I wash it off.

357
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: I really want that acid to get deep down in there.

358
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: You know, I think acids get a bad rep because

359
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: people think of acids and they start thinking about like

360
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: battery acid, you know, or they're like, oh, chemicals, it's

361
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 1: not good for me, right, And I think it's important

362
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: for people to remember we are made of chemicals. Yeah,

363
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 1: head to toe, head, ruda to the tuda. That's my

364
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: favorite thing to say. So you know I mentioned AHA

365
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: alphydroxy acid is derived from sugarcane, milk, almond grapes, is there, Yeah,

366
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: I mean, and there's even acids in like oranges and

367
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 1: lemons and stuff like that that are also very good

368
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 1: for the skin. And the way acids help you get

369
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: rid of or particularly like AHA and BHA's help you

370
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: get rid of your skin cell or help you exfoliate,

371
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,360
Speaker 1: is that those skin cells don't think of them as

372
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: just sitting up there all alone, floating around. They're helping

373
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: it to each other. Right, they're connected, so they're connected

374
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: left to right, on each side of each other, and

375
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 1: to the layer of skin cells that are beneath and

376
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 1: so as is break down those connections between those skin

377
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: cells and makes it easier for them to come off.

378
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 3: After I wash.

379
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 2: I will tone depending on if certain times in the month.

380
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 2: I definitely need like a little more of like a

381
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 2: pimple fighter, And I just love good old Nutrogena. They

382
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 2: have one called Acne Stress Control, which I think is amazing,

383
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 2: Like it really attacks like my hormonal breakouts.

384
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 3: For like about I use it about.

385
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 2: Eight days in the month, like we all know around

386
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 2: the time that we're going to need to use it,

387
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: and then the rest of the month sometimes I'll use

388
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 2: I love like Fresh makes this rosewater toner, which is

389
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 2: basically just like a hydrating cleansing. I don't know. It

390
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 2: just feels like a really nice and refreshing and I

391
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 2: do it on cotton cotton ball or cotton pat. It

392
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 2: just kind of gets all the rest of the all

393
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 2: of the residue off. And I also like to use

394
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 2: reusable cotton pads because I really care about the environment,

395
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 2: and I found out cotton is a very dirty crop,

396
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 2: so I'm trying to really and if you think about it,

397
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,159
Speaker 2: most cotton comes in a plastic bag, so you're just

398
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 2: creating a ton of waste.

399
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 3: So yes, reusable cotton pads.

400
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 2: The same thing for when I remove my makeup, I

401
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,719
Speaker 2: get these black microfiber ones so you don't see all

402
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,159
Speaker 2: the messcara on them, you throw them in the wash.

403
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 3: It's amazing.

404
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: So toner is something that it's not one size fits all.

405
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: You can't just walk into the store and just pick

406
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: up any old toner and say this is going to

407
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: work for me. It's really important to know your skin.

408
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,159
Speaker 1: One thing that all toners have in common is that

409
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 1: they all have alcohol. And so what its main purpose

410
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 1: is to do is to close up your pores and

411
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: prep you for the next step. But depending on your

412
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: skin type, you might be looking for other ingredients. Like

413
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,239
Speaker 1: if you have oily skin, you might want something that

414
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: has like, say, like acid in it. If you have

415
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: drier skin, you want something that's more moisturizing, So maybe

416
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: you'll choose something that has rose water or something like

417
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 1: that in it. But it really depends. A popular ingredient

418
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,159
Speaker 1: in toner is witch hazel, and sometimes people just use

419
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: witch hazel itself as their toner. And this is an

420
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,880
Speaker 1: extract from a plant or an herb, and it has

421
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: properties that have been shown to kind of be anti aging.

422
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: And if you think back to what we said at

423
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: the top, elastin and collagen are part of these There

424
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: are these fibers that are in all the layers of

425
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 1: your skin, but those things get broken down, and so

426
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: which hazel has properties that prevent the breakdown of collagen

427
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: and elastin and keep that skin looking tight. If you

428
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 1: would have asked me where does which hazel come from?

429
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: I would have been like, I don't know, probably some

430
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: lady named Hazel that nobody liked, or something I've been

431
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: seeing lately witch hazel blowing up. And I just bought

432
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 1: at Target this little small travel bottle of which Hazel.

433
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: That's like cucumber with hazel, and it smells like cucumber.

434
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 1: But I'm like, is it I don't know if it's

435
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 1: just cucumber fragrance or if does cucumber have properties? Well,

436
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: you know people used to put cucumbers on their eyes

437
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: in the older movies. They would have the cucumbers on

438
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: the eyes at the spa. Maybe it's just bathing with chazel.

439
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: It seems like that would be expensive and probably not good,

440
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: not good for all skin. But it's pretty cool, right,

441
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: This is really good because it shows like your skincare

442
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 1: routine can be all natural. It's from Nearth, straight from

443
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: those plants. I like it. Okay, So now we've gotten

444
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: to the point where we have stripped ourselves all the

445
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 1: way down. Our skin is completely clean. We're going to

446
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: take a quick break and when we get back, we're

447
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: going to talk about how to build your skin back up.

448
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,199
Speaker 1: And we're back now that our skin is clean, right,

449
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: what do we need to put on our skin to

450
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: get us to get that glow? Let's build it back up.

451
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 2: I'm super into essence. A lot of people swear by

452
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 2: the sk two one. I think it's like the biggest

453
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 2: selling essence. It's pretty pricey. Fresh created one called the

454
00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 2: Black Tea and Kombucha Essence. I love the texture of it.

455
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 2: It's a watery texture, but it leaves this like really soft,

456
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 2: like your skin feels like a baby's butt.

457
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 3: Literally.

458
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: One of the things that I really like is when

459
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 1: I have skincare that feels smooth or slippery, you know

460
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like, it's not all tacky, it doesn't

461
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 1: feel crazy on my face. What material gives me that feeling?

462
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: It's actually silicone, hmm, like silicone Valley silicone, I don't

463
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 1: think so. Silicone is what gives your moisturizers and vitamins

464
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: that that extra slippery feeling. It's just the nature of

465
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 1: that material. And it's really important to put those those

466
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: types of moisturizers on first, the ones that are really

467
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: slippery and wet, those should come in contact with your

468
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: face first so that it can absorb all of those things.

469
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: Because if you put on something that's way too heavy

470
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 1: and then you try and put on the slippery, slick stuff,

471
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 1: the lighter stuff, it won't penetrate through that thicker cream

472
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 1: that you put on top. So start off with the slick,

473
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,120
Speaker 1: silicone based stuff and work your way to the heavy

474
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: set and then word ahead, not putting basoline on and

475
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: then putting on serums. It doesn't work like that.

476
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 2: No, then I will go into my vitamins. So I

477
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 2: love like either like a vitamin C. There's one I

478
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 2: love from Sunday Riley called I think it's called CEO,

479
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 2: which is like their vitamin C serum.

480
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 1: Vitamin C is absorbic acid and it really helps with

481
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,919
Speaker 1: collagen synthesis. It helps with the elasticity, it helps with

482
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,239
Speaker 1: your skin looking like plump, but it also helps you

483
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: look brighter.

484
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 2: My thing for brightening in general, which would be like

485
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 2: a vitamin C or some stronger ingredients like hydro keenone

486
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 2: if you're having some discoloration. Are really good, especially like

487
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 2: on brown skin, the hydro keenone, especially on everybody. I

488
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 2: think vitamin C is like a great ingredient unless you

489
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 2: are sensitive to it, which some people are.

490
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 1: I just want to look like the sun walking around.

491
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 1: I want to walk out my house and people be like,

492
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, what's happening. It's just me. It's just me.

493
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: It's just me. I'm walking on sunshine. Whoa do you

494
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 1: remember those wasn't an artist named vitamin C? Yeah, back

495
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 1: when we were in like middle school or high school.

496
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: It was the same woman that did that. She did

497
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: the song, that graduation song. Yes, that everybody was playing. God,

498
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: I know what you're talking about. So you can get

499
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: vitamin C in a lot of different ways. You can

500
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: use serums, you can use creams. Some people just sell

501
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 1: concentrated vitamins and things like that. You could take pills.

502
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:33,720
Speaker 1: But one thing that I did that I don't know

503
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: if it actually worked, but I was actually just taking

504
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 1: lemons from the grocery store, squeezing them and then using

505
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 1: a cotton pad and then rubbing lemon juice on my face.

506
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 1: So I was getting that vitamin C direct to the

507
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: skin straight from the source, and I felt like it

508
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 1: was amazing. I felt like I looked great.

509
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 3: You did.

510
00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,719
Speaker 2: Then I'll do an I cream. There's a Shiitsado one

511
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 2: that I love. I have to look up the name

512
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 2: of it. It's in like a skinny white tube. I

513
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 2: have to pull it up. But it's like my favorite

514
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 2: I cream right now. And I like a I cream

515
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 2: that's actually not too heavy. I think people go way

516
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 2: too heavy on I cream and that's how you end

517
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 2: up getting all the little milia, which are those little

518
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 2: like hard bumps that you can kind of get around

519
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 2: your eye. It's really delicate skin, and people will clog

520
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 2: those pores with too heavy So people like these really

521
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 2: rich I creams like I need moisture. I need moisture,

522
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,199
Speaker 2: and it's you need moisture, but like not to the

523
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 2: level that you think you do and you're clogging.

524
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: I remember a long time ago I read something that

525
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,199
Speaker 1: said that you should be putting your so you're not

526
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 1: too rough with that. You should be putting your I

527
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,880
Speaker 1: cream on with your ring finger something where you don't

528
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: have you know, we can press all hard with our

529
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 1: index finger, but it's harder a little bit with your

530
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 1: to press with your ring finger. For most people, I

531
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 1: see you pressing pretty hard, though, Yeah, I don't feel

532
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 1: a difference. I'm like press lightly so much that you're

533
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: not even moving the rest of your hand. That's so light. Yeah,

534
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: that's how you're supposed to be treating that area. It

535
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: is tender. So a lot of I creams have stuff

536
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 1: like caffeine, which actually can constrict blood vessels, so you

537
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 1: won't see your blood vestis because the skin is so thin,

538
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: so you can see blood vessels sometimes underneath people's eyes,

539
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: particularly people with pale or skin HM. And so you

540
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 1: get caffeine so you can kind of constrict those blood vessels.

541
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: But that seems counterintuitive. I feel like I want the

542
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: blood to flow. You know. I don't know about you,

543
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 1: but I wanted to keep those blood vessels at one

544
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: hundred percent capacity maximum flow through. So then maybe you

545
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: shouldn't drink so much coffee. That's not what No, this is, Okay,

546
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 1: that's a different all right. Sorry. So the next step

547
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: after that is hydration.

548
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,399
Speaker 2: I kind of rotate with my with my moisturizers depending

549
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 2: on how my skin's feeling, and sometimes I'll add an

550
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 2: oil into it if I feel really dry or like

551
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 2: in the winter. There is a oil that I love

552
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 2: called Supernol, which is like an antioxidant extreme glow oil.

553
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,439
Speaker 2: I love the feel, I love the smell, So sometimes

554
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 2: I'll just use that as my moisture or sometimes I'll

555
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 2: drop it into an additional moisturizer for like extreme moisture,

556
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 2: and I rotate my moisturizers. I use Ciseado, I use philosophy.

557
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 2: I mean, I just use all kinds of moisturizers land

558
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 2: come mixed, really nice ones. But I'm a big fan

559
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 2: of face oils in general, like if you really need

560
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 2: the extra hydration, and just in general, I think not

561
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 2: even if I think like people think I'm oily, I

562
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 2: don't need to add oil, but oil.

563
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 3: Is great for your skin in general.

564
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 2: And like to that whole conversation about like mysolar and

565
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 2: makeup remover, like oil does break down other oils. So

566
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 2: sometimes by default, adding oil to oily skin is not

567
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 2: going to make you oilier. It's actually gonna help control

568
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 2: your oil because your skin's going to have oil on it.

569
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,719
Speaker 2: So the natural reaction for your oily skin is to

570
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 2: send more oil to the top because it thinks you

571
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 2: need it. But if the oil is already there. Your

572
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 2: skin is not going to react that way. So sometimes

573
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 2: even oilier people should be using more oil.

574
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: So one of the things to understand is we have

575
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: glands that produce oil in the dermis, so that's right

576
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 1: under our epidermis, and oil skin isn't all bad. The

577
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: thing is you want to find the right balance. Sometimes

578
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: people have really oily skin, so they make a lot

579
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: of oil and that might lead to them getting zits

580
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: or pimples and stuff. Yeah, but you ail is good

581
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: for you because it actually like helps preserve your skin,

582
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 1: and people with oil skin tend to have thicker skin

583
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: and fewer wrinkles. The key is to yes, you might

584
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: want to get away get rid of the extra oil,

585
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: but don't take away the good oil. Yeah, so you

586
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: don't want to strip it all the way Yeah, don't

587
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 1: strip it all the way down.

588
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 2: And then I do sunscreen. I love, like the Glossier

589
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 2: one is really great. It's like clear. It also gives

590
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 2: a nice glow, so like even after piling all that on,

591
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 2: it like it weirdly like gnats and glows at the

592
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 2: same time.

593
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 3: So that's my last step before makeup.

594
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: Sunscreen is a really important step when it comes to

595
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: like having healthy skin, like not just sunscreen for your face,

596
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: head to toe sunscreen. None of us should really be

597
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 1: going outside when the sun's blazing like it has been

598
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 1: without that protective layer on.

599
00:29:56,160 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 2: And I like a clear sunscreen a because it feels

600
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 2: b because it doesn't give you that weird like purply

601
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 2: cast and especially like the browner your skin is, you

602
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 2: should definitely be using a clear sunscreen because those ultraviolet

603
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 2: blocking ones can really show up on brown skin.

604
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 1: And the way the sunscreen works is that it has

605
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: all of these nanoparticles in it, and those nanoparticles are

606
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: used to basically reflect the sun back out and so

607
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: it is literally a protective layer where that it doesn't

608
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,719
Speaker 1: allow UV rays to get through. Wow. So it's just

609
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: like you know how back in the day there were

610
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: those and some people still using those silverfold up things

611
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 1: that you put in your car to keep the inside

612
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: of the car from getting too hot. Basically we're just

613
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 1: holding those up on our face and send the sun

614
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: right back to itself. I'm rubber, You're glue back at

615
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: you like, yeah, I mean, it doesn't keep all of

616
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: the sun out, but it keeps a lot of the

617
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 1: bad sun rays out. So then we had to ask Joanna,

618
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: is there anything we can skip because there's all kinds

619
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: of stuff on the internet and we want to know

620
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 1: do we really need all of that?

621
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's definitely like products that I feel are overrated.

622
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 2: Like I don't think anyone in the world needs setting spray,

623
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 2: Like what what is that?

624
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 3: What is that?

625
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 2: Like setting spray? You don't need that, Like what is that?

626
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 2: I don't even know what's that supposed to do? Like

627
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 2: people think that's like a like a deck when you're

628
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 2: standing down your deck and you need to seal it

629
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 2: and make it water p Like, No.

630
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: We had just live and die by setting spray. Now

631
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 1: I know, it's just all the application is wrong. Teeth,

632
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: You're not putting your makeup on right because your makeup

633
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: should stay on, and rolling is not super necessary unless

634
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 1: you have something kind of coming up.

635
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 2: For me, Like I don't think you need to do

636
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 2: like rolling or guasha or anything like that unless you're

637
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 2: seriously like puffy.

638
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.

639
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: Like those those techniques are meant to distribute the fluid

640
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 2: that's under your skin. So you know, you flew in

641
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 2: late last night and you're eating salty French fries on

642
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 2: the plane and we're up at five a m. Glamoring

643
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 2: and you look puffy. Then like, yeah, let's try to

644
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 2: distribute some of that fluid like every day or whatever.

645
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 2: I mean, it feels nice, but I don't think you're

646
00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 2: really like having some gigantic effect.

647
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 1: Does it have to be jade? Some people use rose

648
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: quartz and is that spiritual? Like I'm trying to figure

649
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: out what So I learned a lot here, but something

650
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: that you haven't heard us talk about just yet that

651
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: I think Joanna does beautifully and is really spreading this

652
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: message all across the internet, and that's about being Bear

653
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: in the Air. Yeah, she has a hashtag on her Instagram.

654
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: If you put go on to Instagram and put hashtag

655
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: bear in the Air, you'll see all of these people

656
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 1: who have been following in her footsteps as far as

657
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: keeping your skin absolutely free of all things when you

658
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: are flying, yeah, and really using that time to put

659
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 1: on your best serums and vitamins and whatnot. I love.

660
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 2: I love when I see people tagging me and they're

661
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 2: going all in like with a sheet mask, Like I

662
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 2: don't even care who's looking at least under eye mask,

663
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 2: like under a sunglass. But people got like sheet masks

664
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 2: or like landling gloves. I'm like, you guys are like committed,

665
00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 2: and I love it. I've definitely done a sheet mask

666
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 2: on the plane. I'm like every extra thing you can do.

667
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 2: And it's funny because sometimes people will say, oh, I

668
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 2: don't like face oil, it feels too greasy on my skin.

669
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 2: I guarantee you, if you get on like a long

670
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 2: haul flight and you put oil on and you feel greasy,

671
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 2: by the time you land, your skin is gonna just

672
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 2: feel like soft and supple and you're not gonna feel

673
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 2: any bit of oil whatsoever because your skin's just gonna

674
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 2: drink all of it.

675
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 3: T T.

676
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: I feel like this was revolutionary for me. Yeah, I

677
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 1: realize that I have a good foundation where I have

678
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: some of the things that she is talking about. Maybe

679
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 1: not the specific products. Some of these products I don't

680
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: know if I can afford them, but I think I'm

681
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 1: on my way. I think I have the products, and

682
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: I need a little bit more discipline with doing these

683
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: things faithfully because sometimes by the time I get to

684
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 1: the bathroom to get ready to go to bed at night,

685
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: I'm like a makeup white will do And this is

686
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: just and sometimes I'm like a clinics. White will do anything.

687
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: We'll do toilet paper, toilet paper with a little bit

688
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: of water from the sink well, and I need to

689
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: keep that pillow case will do. And I'll just say,

690
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,439
Speaker 1: now you just laid let the pillowcase take off the day. Yes,

691
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: the pillow case will absorb all the oils. And we

692
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: didn't even talk about washing your pillow case. You got

693
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 1: to wash your pillow case. Yes, you know, y'all washing

694
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: y'all pillowcases. I changed my pillow throughout the week because

695
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:20,799
Speaker 1: I have a bunch of the same pillows and I

696
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: just rotate them throughout the bed. I try to wash

697
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 1: my pillows every time, my pillowcases every time I do laundry.

698
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: Is there anything you're gonna do differently? Now? I think

699
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try it and find like an essence or something.

700
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 1: The way she was describing it, I feel like I'm

701
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: missing out on something like this secret that everyone has

702
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: been keeping from me, and I want to try it.

703
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: So I think I'm gonna start doing some googles and

704
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 1: and get just I'm probably just gonna put what she

705
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 1: what she uses in my Amazon cart If I'm being honest, yeah,

706
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: just put it all in there and get to and

707
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 1: then I'll come retrieve the items that. Okay, better for me,

708
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 1: no problem. I really want some I cream, like I

709
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 1: have some little samples that I got from like so

710
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: four and I need to just apply, apply, apply, because

711
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: I don't do that and that skin is tender under there.

712
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 1: M h, not too much though. No, we don't want

713
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 1: millia bumps. Yeah, she told us about those. I don't

714
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: even want to talk about them. Y'all have to google it,

715
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:18,399
Speaker 1: Google millia bumps and be prepared to be disgusted. Yeah,

716
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 1: but you can get rid of those with a good aesthetition. Yes,

717
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: and that's anesthetician can get rid of all of those.

718
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: So don't don't worry. If you have millia bumps, it's fine.
