0:00:52.720 --> 0:00:55.160

<v Speaker 1>she posts a lot. Yeah, okay, So she was jade rolling.

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 1>I was like, okay, well, now I gotta purchase the

0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:06.119
<v Speaker 1>jade roller. She was doing this other one that looked

0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:08.040
<v Speaker 1>like it had like spokes in it, and she was

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:09.920
<v Speaker 1>rolling on her face. I was like, well, now I

0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 1>have to go get that. She always has a face

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:17.160
<v Speaker 1>mask on, she's always doing like some massages. I just

0:01:17.160 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>do whatever she's doing. But it don't it don't turn

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:21.000
<v Speaker 1>out the same. You do not use it because my

0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 1>products ain't right. Sometimes I feel like it's the products.

0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:24.880
<v Speaker 1>And I used to really be into the makeup and

0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:26.840
<v Speaker 1>I realized, hey, that makeup is no good of that

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:30.640
<v Speaker 1>skin underneath there is not right. I'm t T and

0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:45.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm Zachiah and from Spotify Studios. This is Dope Labs.

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:52.000
<v Speaker 1>So today we're talking about skin and we're covering all

0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:56.480
<v Speaker 1>things skin. Skin that's too dry, skin that's probably too oily,

0:01:56.640 --> 0:02:00.760
<v Speaker 1>skin that is loose and hanging down some Yeah, there's that.

0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:03.960
<v Speaker 1>How skin you're trying to tighten up, skin, you want

0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:06.760
<v Speaker 1>to plump, skin, you want to rejuvenate, Yeah, how to

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 1>protect it? How do if you got skin that's good,

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:10.680
<v Speaker 1>how do you keep just that skin? How do you

0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 1>keep that skin intact? Not just on your face, on

0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 1>your arms and legs too. Because some of y'all not

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 1>washing them. We heard about it, and this isn't an

0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:21.359
<v Speaker 1>episode just for women. This episode is for everybody. Contrary

0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:24.120
<v Speaker 1>to probably believe, skincare is something that's important to all

0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:26.200
<v Speaker 1>of us. Don't think just because you have a beard

0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 1>that's enough. It's not. It's not. So what do you

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 1>put on your face to try and achieve a glove?

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 1>I have a whole body routine, okay, and some of

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 1>this stuff. I know you know how wild it is

0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 1>because you've been with me from the Yes, from the inception.

0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes.

0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:45.200
<v Speaker 1>When I first was like, we can make body scrub

0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.440
<v Speaker 1>with the coffee ground from the kitchen. Yeah, because I

0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:51.840
<v Speaker 1>had some hyper pigmentation on my legs and the kid.

0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:53.880
<v Speaker 1>I was like, this stuff ain't never gonna go away,

0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:58.200
<v Speaker 1>and the kid said, oh, yes, it will come into

0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:02.679
<v Speaker 1>the kitchen. Friend and she made a whole mason jar

0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:07.799
<v Speaker 1>full of it was like coffee grounds, coconut oil, some

0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:10.440
<v Speaker 1>other sof like essentral olsche. The show notes she's gonna

0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:13.959
<v Speaker 1>drop the recipe. I'm gonna cook you' all up. And

0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:17.839
<v Speaker 1>I was like, Okay, this is my friend's stuff. I'm

0:03:17.840 --> 0:03:20.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna try it. And so every night I would use

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 1>this coffee scrub on my legs. It was so good,

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 1>It was so good. It was probably one of the

0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:30.359
<v Speaker 1>best body scrubs I have ever owned in my life,

0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:31.960
<v Speaker 1>and it was free. I got it from my friend.

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.160
<v Speaker 1>And let me tell you something, that hyperpigmentation I had

0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:40.240
<v Speaker 1>on my legs gone scrub it away, it away. I

0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 1>don't even really understand how that works, because I felt

0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 1>like I was doing all the right things and then

0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:49.440
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, Takia shows up with this, this

0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:54.120
<v Speaker 1>magical jar of elixir. Yeah, it changed my life. And

0:03:54.160 --> 0:03:56.080
<v Speaker 1>I'd like to just point out, you know, this may

0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:58.520
<v Speaker 1>feel similar to another story you've heard about t t

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:02.800
<v Speaker 1>giving me instructions on my home. Okay, well it is different,

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 1>okay to know, but okay, so she's talking about how

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:08.880
<v Speaker 1>she how she made that banana bread in her in

0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:11.560
<v Speaker 1>her hair, and so if you haven't heard the story,

0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 1>go back to Lab two Edges Snatched and you will

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:20.280
<v Speaker 1>hear the banana breadhead story. But what I also want

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:24.240
<v Speaker 1>to note again is that I just mentioned it in passing.

0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:26.760
<v Speaker 1>I didn't tell her to go do it. I didn't say, oh,

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:29.000
<v Speaker 1>this would be so good for you. I said this

0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 1>is what I heard. I hear a lot of things,

0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:33.479
<v Speaker 1>and I was just telling her what I had heard. Yeah,

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:37.840
<v Speaker 1>it's on me, really got to evaluate your sources, you know, too,

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:41.920
<v Speaker 1>trusting to trusting You can trust me, No I can.

0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:48.479
<v Speaker 1>So I think you know, I'm going on vacation in

0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 1>a couple of weeks, and I feel like I haven't

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.320
<v Speaker 1>been on a vacation that is like not working, not

0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:56.640
<v Speaker 1>doing some type of something related to work, in a

0:04:56.720 --> 0:04:59.480
<v Speaker 1>really long time. Yeah, that's very true. And so I'm

0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:02.200
<v Speaker 1>ready to but before I can unplug, I need to

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:05.080
<v Speaker 1>get some glow first, And so started with my face.

0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:08.839
<v Speaker 1>I have been doing these using this face wash that

0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:11.680
<v Speaker 1>has it's supposed to be an exfoliating face wash, but

0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.680
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't have any grains or gristle or whatever it

0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 1>is happening. That's not like a physical exfoliant. Yeah, it's

0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:20.000
<v Speaker 1>a chemical face wash. And so I'm trying to be

0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:21.840
<v Speaker 1>careful because when you do that stuff, you know, it

0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:23.640
<v Speaker 1>makes your sensitive to the sun. So then I'm like, okay,

0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:27.600
<v Speaker 1>now I got up my my SPF and put on

0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:30.320
<v Speaker 1>some sunscreen because I'm ount in the sun more. And

0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:33.719
<v Speaker 1>you put me onto some sunscreen so that I don't

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:36.360
<v Speaker 1>look like cass for the ghost, right, Because that's what

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.120
<v Speaker 1>you don't realize, well that a lot of people don't realize,

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:43.560
<v Speaker 1>is that white cast that that sunscreen puts on you,

0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:46.760
<v Speaker 1>fifty shades of gray? It makes it makes black people

0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:49.240
<v Speaker 1>look crazy. Yes, and we want to be protected from

0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:53.159
<v Speaker 1>the sun too, and we always have to sacrifice looking

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:55.920
<v Speaker 1>like our regular selves and then we look like we're

0:05:56.080 --> 0:05:58.840
<v Speaker 1>cast get ready, Yes, and when we have that yeah,

0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:01.839
<v Speaker 1>when we have that sunscreen on. So there's a sunscreen

0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:04.640
<v Speaker 1>that is called Black Girl's Sunscreen that is made by

0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:08.320
<v Speaker 1>a black woman and it is so sheer and it

0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:10.680
<v Speaker 1>is so moisturizing, so that I swear by it. That's

0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:13.280
<v Speaker 1>what I use over my whole body. Yes, So doing

0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.200
<v Speaker 1>that exfoliating, getting all that winter skin off, washing my

0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 1>troubles away, and then putting on SPF and then you know,

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:23.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna take you'll all into the serums and moisturizers.

0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:25.039
<v Speaker 1>But if you've been following me on Instagram, you've seen

0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:28.360
<v Speaker 1>me do a face mask routine. And then for the body,

0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:30.720
<v Speaker 1>you gotta have a whole body scrub and you really

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:32.960
<v Speaker 1>got to hit those elbows and knees. Those are tough areas.

0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:34.599
<v Speaker 1>I know you feel the dead skin is not like

0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:36.719
<v Speaker 1>the other skin, so you need to do something different.

0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:38.919
<v Speaker 1>I have one of those exfoliating sheets. I'll do a

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:40.800
<v Speaker 1>scrub and then come back with a sheet. It's like

0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:44.160
<v Speaker 1>coarse it's like coarse sandpaper. And then fine, right, I'm

0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:47.560
<v Speaker 1>coming back to really smooth out those those patches exactly.

0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:51.480
<v Speaker 1>And I'm the same way. So I instead of a sheet,

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:54.280
<v Speaker 1>I have a body brush. So I have one for

0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.800
<v Speaker 1>pre shower. So I do a dry scrub of my

0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>body drybrush to just get like all the dead skin up.

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:03.839
<v Speaker 1>Then I shower, and then while I'm in the shower,

0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I have another softer brush that I put soap on,

0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:10.600
<v Speaker 1>and I use that again all over my body to

0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:13.800
<v Speaker 1>really get all that dead skin off. Yes, and in

0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:16.760
<v Speaker 1>the age of not taking a shower, not scrubbing your legs,

0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>it's important to really you know, people have been talking

0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>about this thing, and so I think we really need to.

0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:24.119
<v Speaker 1>Chosa said, she shaves her legs and that's washing her legs.

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:28.120
<v Speaker 1>I ain't washing it, No, that's not but I'm like dirty, dirty,

0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:31.680
<v Speaker 1>and what about your ankle's boot? Like, so I think

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:35.840
<v Speaker 1>you gotta think about that. My God, I believe in

0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:38.120
<v Speaker 1>scrubbing all of those areas. And then I have like

0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:41.920
<v Speaker 1>a pumming stone even for scrubbing under my nails. I

0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:43.960
<v Speaker 1>have a little brush at my sink in my house

0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:48.480
<v Speaker 1>to just really but you gotta get that stuff out

0:07:48.520 --> 0:07:50.960
<v Speaker 1>from mother there. Yeah, under my nails. I have a

0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:53.320
<v Speaker 1>whole meal under my nails right now. So I'm gonna

0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:55.360
<v Speaker 1>get you a brush. Don't worry, by a friend, thank you.

0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:00.760
<v Speaker 1>So this episode is gon to be a little bit

0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:03.200
<v Speaker 1>different and a whole lot of fun. Yes, so our

0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:06.720
<v Speaker 1>guest for today is not a scientist, but she is

0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:11.960
<v Speaker 1>an expert. Yes. The authority, the absolute authority, So everything

0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:17.480

<v Speaker 1>the authority on all things skincare, so we're gonna handle

0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:22.880
<v Speaker 1>the science T T. I always go to you whenever

0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:25.960
<v Speaker 1>there is anything listed in my skincare and I'm like,

0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:30.440
<v Speaker 1>does this really work? It says nanoparticles. Is that true? Yeah,

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:32.600

0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:35.800
<v Speaker 1>with the nano materials that are that is in skincare

0:08:35.920 --> 0:08:38.240

<v Speaker 1>to you if it's if it has anything to do

0:08:41.240 --> 0:08:46.160
<v Speaker 1>with something that has a cell, which is all skin. Yeah,

0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:48.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm asking Zekiah because I'm like, I don't know how

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 1>this works. It's saying that it's gonna renew my skin.

0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Is that possible? Let's get to it. Let's jump into

0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:02.960
<v Speaker 1>you have skin, okay, and so your skin is made

0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:06.360
<v Speaker 1>of three major layers. There's the epidermis, which is the

0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.880
<v Speaker 1>top layer that's exposed to the air and everything else.

0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Beneath the epidermist is the dermis or what you'll hear

0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:15.160
<v Speaker 1>people call the dermal layer. And then underneath that is

0:09:15.240 --> 0:09:21.880
<v Speaker 1>subcutaneous fat. So the epidermis is really a thin layer.

0:09:21.920 --> 0:09:24.320
<v Speaker 1>It's that top layer, and then the dermist is the

0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:26.320
<v Speaker 1>second layer under that, and it's a lot thicker, and

0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:29.760
<v Speaker 1>that's where like your hair follicles and sweat glands are.

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:31.880
<v Speaker 1>You might remember us talking about that in Lap two

0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 1>as well. And then underneath the dermist is the subcutaneous fat.

0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:39.560
<v Speaker 1>And actually in the subcutaneous fat layer, it has connective

0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:42.120
<v Speaker 1>tissues that keeps your dermis like, so it keeps the

0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:46.120
<v Speaker 1>skin that we see attached to your muscles and bones. Underneath,

0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:48.640
<v Speaker 1>you lose that fat and that's when you start to

0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:51.800
<v Speaker 1>get droopy. Droopy. I was like, snoopy, that's not right.

0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 1>You get your skin looking droopy and saggy. So one

0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:58.160
<v Speaker 1>important thing that is a part of your skin is

0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:00.160
<v Speaker 1>collagen and it's found in all three of them those

0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:04.360
<v Speaker 1>layers that Zakia was talking about. And collagen is the

0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 1>most abundant protein in your whole entire body, and it

0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:13.679
<v Speaker 1>plays a major role in your skin, your muscles, your ligaments,

0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:16.800
<v Speaker 1>and tendon Collagen fibers they give support. So collagen is

0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:21.280
<v Speaker 1>one of those major support proteins. But also elastin. So

0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:24.680
<v Speaker 1>people often talk about skin elasticity to give your skin

0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:27.880
<v Speaker 1>flexibility and strength. So collagen and elastin are two kind

0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 1>of major components of keeping that skin looking healthy. So

0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:33.960
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about what we have questions about. I want

0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:37.520
<v Speaker 1>to know what are the chemicals that are in some

0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>of these products and are they truly beneficial? Yeah? I

0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:44.040
<v Speaker 1>want to know what is the what's the cheat code? Right?

0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:49.960
<v Speaker 1>What do I need to do for just baseline glowy, dewey,

0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:52.880
<v Speaker 1>healthy skin. Right. I know I'll never look like Isa,

0:10:53.400 --> 0:10:56.280
<v Speaker 1>I'll never have those cheek bones, but I want to

0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:58.600
<v Speaker 1>try and get as close as I can. Yeah, And

0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:00.800
<v Speaker 1>so I want all the tips and tricks. Yeah, I

0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:03.000
<v Speaker 1>want that. So one of the things I want to

0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:05.760
<v Speaker 1>know is there are a lot of Instagram skincare companies.

0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Is some of this stuff fake? Like what's just a fad?

0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:11.360
<v Speaker 1>And what's real? What do I really need? And what

0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:15.120
<v Speaker 1>could I do without? And then if we know we're

0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:19.880
<v Speaker 1>losing certain components of our skin as we age, how

0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:21.560
<v Speaker 1>do we add them back? Can you just add them

0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:23.640
<v Speaker 1>back with a multi vitamin or should you be you know,

0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 1>spreading it on what's the best way do I need

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.000
<v Speaker 1>to ingest this vitamin or do I need to lay

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 1>it on top of me a vitamin blanket, a vitamin

0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:34.400
<v Speaker 1>need blanket, a collagen blank that's that I need to

0:11:34.400 --> 0:11:36.800
<v Speaker 1>be sleeping with. So another thing that I want to

0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:41.160
<v Speaker 1>know is how our skin interacts with the outside environment,

0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:44.959
<v Speaker 1>Like how does the air like like when you live

0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:48.240
<v Speaker 1>in like a drier climate or more humid climate like here,

0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 1>how does that affect your skin?

0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:51.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:54.440
<v Speaker 1>And are there even long are there long term effects?

0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Should I be living somewhere different if I want this

0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:59.120
<v Speaker 1>skin to be dewey? All I know is that DC

0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:03.240
<v Speaker 1>two human and I gotta get out of here. Okay,

0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:06.040
<v Speaker 1>So let's get into the di Section and four Today's

<v Speaker 3>I work with Ray all the time. Who we love.

0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:46.720
<v Speaker 2>I work with Zaan Malik formerly One Direction, Willow Smith's

0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:49.679
<v Speaker 2>Kerry Washington stormread.

0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk about Ray on that Essence cover. Oh my gosh,

0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:58.760
<v Speaker 1>Issa looked flawless in that spread, and Joanna just has

0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:02.560
<v Speaker 1>this really beautiful of just enhancing what is already there,

0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Like Isa Ray is a beautiful woman, and she didn't

0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:09.160
<v Speaker 1>like make her look not like herself. She just like

0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:12.920
<v Speaker 1>really knows how to place that stuff and just make

0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:13.960
<v Speaker 1>you shine.

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:15.920
<v Speaker 2>I would never want you to run into Issa in

0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:17.920
<v Speaker 2>the grocery store and be like, I did not even

0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:19.079
<v Speaker 2>recognize you, you know what I mean?

0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Like that is crazy.

0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.840
<v Speaker 2>And I generally feel like all my clients, like I

0:13:22.880 --> 0:13:24.679
<v Speaker 2>don't like to see a ton of compliments under my

0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:26.760
<v Speaker 2>client's pictures of I love your makeup, Like I like

0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 2>sometimes like oh I love the eyes, or that's a

0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.200
<v Speaker 2>great lip color. But like my favorite thing, not that

0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Lisa doesn't have beautiful skin, but my favorite comment under

0:13:33.760 --> 0:13:36.440
<v Speaker 2>her pictures is like drop the skincare routine, sis, And

0:13:36.520 --> 0:13:40.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, thank you, good good. I want you guys

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:42.280
<v Speaker 2>to think that she's got like a tap of foundation

0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:44.000
<v Speaker 2>on and that's just her skin. And she does have

0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:45.680
<v Speaker 2>beautiful skin, but you know what I mean, Like I'm

0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:47.880
<v Speaker 2>just like that's what I That's the type of comments

0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:48.720
<v Speaker 2>I like to see.

0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:52.560
<v Speaker 1>She also works with Regina Hall, Marseille Martin, Hannah Brofman.

0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:55.440
<v Speaker 1>Hannah Brofman yep, So who else would I go to

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:59.360
<v Speaker 1>for all the Black Girl Magic skincare? Unlock the vault

0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:01.239
<v Speaker 1>and show me what's inside.

0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:03.240
<v Speaker 2>I am obsessed with skincare, and I get a lot

0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:04.920
<v Speaker 2>sent to me. So it's funny because they say you

0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 2>should kind of like try something for like thirty days

0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:09.199
<v Speaker 2>to really see how your skin. And I'm like, I'm

0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:11.560
<v Speaker 2>such a skincare whore, but I do find things that

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:13.640
<v Speaker 2>I love and I'll stick with them.

0:14:13.840 --> 0:14:17.280
<v Speaker 1>We asked Joanna, what is the key skincare routine? And

0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:18.760
<v Speaker 1>so we're just gonna break it down. We're gonna give

0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:22.000
<v Speaker 1>you the science behind all of it. Buckle up, what

0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:23.000
<v Speaker 1>is the first step?

0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:24.800
<v Speaker 3>I used to just wash my face?

0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:28.360
<v Speaker 2>And then I realized that like actually removing the makeup

0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:32.680
<v Speaker 2>before you wash is so important. Like mysoler water, to

0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:37.000
<v Speaker 2>my knowledge, is oil like suspended in water. So it's

0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:40.240
<v Speaker 2>like a less oily version was still the action of

0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:43.280
<v Speaker 2>an oil breakdown of makeup. I really love the Bioderma one,

0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:47.040
<v Speaker 2>but I've gotten them from multiple brands, and I just

0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:48.000
<v Speaker 2>love the biodermo one.

0:14:48.000 --> 0:14:49.400
<v Speaker 3>I think it just takes off everything.

0:14:49.600 --> 0:14:54.920
<v Speaker 1>My solar water. It is oil and water. Inside of

0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:57.520
<v Speaker 1>that water, you have my cells. That's what your oil is.

0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:01.320
<v Speaker 1>And a my cell is made up of surfactant molecules,

0:15:01.320 --> 0:15:06.440
<v Speaker 1>and our surfactin molecules have a hydrophilic head and a

0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:09.600
<v Speaker 1>hydrophobic tail, and so you have all these molecules that

0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:13.200
<v Speaker 1>are in this water. And the hydrophobic part of it,

0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:16.440
<v Speaker 1>so it doesn't like water. They all aggregate together and

0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:20.840
<v Speaker 1>form this sphere that's called a miceell. Then you introduce

0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:23.720
<v Speaker 1>dirt by putting the mysolar water on your skin, those

0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:27.000
<v Speaker 1>hydrophobic tails attached to all the dirt, and then the

0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:30.160
<v Speaker 1>micell reforms into that sphere and takes the dirt away.

0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:33.760
<v Speaker 1>So what you're getting rid of is a my cell

0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:37.440
<v Speaker 1>with the dirt trapped inside. The dirt's trapped inside the sphere.

0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Some of y'all are just using these mysolar water on

0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:43.400
<v Speaker 1>a cotton ball and jumping right in the bed and

0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:47.160
<v Speaker 1>thinking that's enough. That's not quite it. There's another step.

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:50.280
<v Speaker 1>There are a couple more steps. So Joanna says that

0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:53.240
<v Speaker 1>after your mysolar water comes the cleanser.

0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 2>I prefer general cleanser. I used to use more harsh

0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:57.880
<v Speaker 2>when I was younger and my skin was a little

0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:01.760
<v Speaker 2>more oily. Now I find I like a mild cleanser

0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:04.760
<v Speaker 2>right now. I've been using this like shs shado while

0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:07.200
<v Speaker 2>so one that's like it's I think like honey in it.

0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.960
<v Speaker 2>It's like really hydrating. Muskin just feels really fresh when

0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:10.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm done with it.

0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:13.520
<v Speaker 1>And with cleanser. It works kind of like the micellar water,

0:16:13.640 --> 0:16:16.560
<v Speaker 1>but the cleanser probably has different components. Yeah, so probably

0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:21.000
<v Speaker 1>some strong, some combination of surfactant molecules. So a combination

0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:23.600
<v Speaker 1>of molecules that are gonna help you get even more

0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:26.640
<v Speaker 1>dirt off and really down into those poor Yeah, so

0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:31.960
<v Speaker 1>use those circular motions, y'all. So now we've hit getting

0:16:32.160 --> 0:16:33.920
<v Speaker 1>all the dirt off of your face. But now we're

0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:36.840
<v Speaker 1>get into something that you talked about t T renewing

0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:40.320
<v Speaker 1>that skin. So I think there's something that we really

0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:43.720
<v Speaker 1>take for granted, and that's making new skin cells. Our

0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:46.200
<v Speaker 1>body makes new skin cells from the bottom of an

0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:48.560
<v Speaker 1>epidermis layer and then they just travel up to the

0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:51.920
<v Speaker 1>top and they flake off. So that process from your

0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:54.760
<v Speaker 1>skin cells making new skin cells at the bottom of

0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:56.840
<v Speaker 1>the epidermis and traveling up to the top, that's about

0:16:56.880 --> 0:16:59.280
<v Speaker 1>a month, right, And so one of the ways that

0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:02.840
<v Speaker 1>people renuce skin is to exfoliate. They take that top

0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:04.800
<v Speaker 1>layer of dead skin cells. How do they get it off?

0:17:04.840 --> 0:17:08.080
<v Speaker 1>Exfoliation is the key. Yes, I need baby skin every day.

0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:12.440
<v Speaker 2>People go back and forth about manual versus chemical exfoliation.

0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:14.840
<v Speaker 2>I am a crazy person.

0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:15.400
<v Speaker 3>I like both.

0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:20.160
<v Speaker 2>I get these like little like egg shaped scrubber things

0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:21.960
<v Speaker 2>like off Amazon, like a pack of twelve over like

0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:23.840
<v Speaker 2>two dollars or whatever, and I'll use them for like

0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:25.960
<v Speaker 2>a week or two until they completely lose their integrity.

0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:28.360
<v Speaker 2>But I'll like also like put my cleanser in that

0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:31.280
<v Speaker 2>and like really get into my pores. And I've done

0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:34.160
<v Speaker 2>that since I was like fourteen, and I swear that's

0:17:34.160 --> 0:17:37.200
<v Speaker 2>why I really really get pimples, because it really exfoliates

0:17:37.200 --> 0:17:39.000
<v Speaker 2>for me. It might be too harsh for some people,

0:17:39.040 --> 0:17:40.919
<v Speaker 2>so I'm not like saying everyone go do that, but

0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:43.720
<v Speaker 2>exfoliating is key regardless.

0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:47.119
<v Speaker 1>I only use chemical exfoliators, oh really, yeah, because the

0:17:47.160 --> 0:17:49.640
<v Speaker 1>manual ones I felt like it was too like harsh,

0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:51.520
<v Speaker 1>harsh on my skin. I felt like my pores are

0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:54.440
<v Speaker 1>getting really big. It might've all been in my mind,

0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:58.160
<v Speaker 1>but I only use chemical exfoliators. So sail like acid,

0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:02.280
<v Speaker 1>hyaluronic acid, things like that, and I just lay that

0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:04.320
<v Speaker 1>acid on my face sometimes I'll put it, I'll put

0:18:04.359 --> 0:18:07.640
<v Speaker 1>my my cleanser on and I'll just let it sit

0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:09.840
<v Speaker 1>on my face for five minutes before I wash it off.

0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I really want that acid to get deep down in there.

0:18:12.680 --> 0:18:15.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think acids get a bad rep because

0:18:15.560 --> 0:18:18.399
<v Speaker 1>people think of acids and they start thinking about like

0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:21.760
<v Speaker 1>battery acid, you know, or they're like, oh, chemicals, it's

0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:23.879
<v Speaker 1>not good for me, right, And I think it's important

0:18:23.880 --> 0:18:27.760
<v Speaker 1>for people to remember we are made of chemicals. Yeah,

0:18:28.160 --> 0:18:33.639
<v Speaker 1>head to toe, head, ruda to the tuda. That's my

0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:38.440
<v Speaker 1>favorite thing to say. So you know I mentioned AHA

0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:45.359
<v Speaker 1>alphydroxy acid is derived from sugarcane, milk, almond grapes, is there, Yeah,

0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:48.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and there's even acids in like oranges and

0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:50.640
<v Speaker 1>lemons and stuff like that that are also very good

0:18:50.720 --> 0:18:53.879
<v Speaker 1>for the skin. And the way acids help you get

0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:57.720
<v Speaker 1>rid of or particularly like AHA and BHA's help you

0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:01.080
<v Speaker 1>get rid of your skin cell or help you exfoliate,

0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:03.360
<v Speaker 1>is that those skin cells don't think of them as

0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:07.680
<v Speaker 1>just sitting up there all alone, floating around. They're helping

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:10.040
<v Speaker 1>it to each other. Right, they're connected, so they're connected

0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:11.840
<v Speaker 1>left to right, on each side of each other, and

0:19:11.920 --> 0:19:14.159
<v Speaker 1>to the layer of skin cells that are beneath and

0:19:14.240 --> 0:19:18.160
<v Speaker 1>so as is break down those connections between those skin

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:20.560
<v Speaker 1>cells and makes it easier for them to come off.

0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:21.160
<v Speaker 3>After I wash.

0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:24.840
<v Speaker 2>I will tone depending on if certain times in the month.

0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:26.439
<v Speaker 2>I definitely need like a little more of like a

0:19:26.480 --> 0:19:29.000
<v Speaker 2>pimple fighter, And I just love good old Nutrogena. They

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:31.480
<v Speaker 2>have one called Acne Stress Control, which I think is amazing,

0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:34.440
<v Speaker 2>Like it really attacks like my hormonal breakouts.

0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:36.200
<v Speaker 3>For like about I use it about.

0:19:35.960 --> 0:19:37.840
<v Speaker 2>Eight days in the month, like we all know around

0:19:37.840 --> 0:19:39.120
<v Speaker 2>the time that we're going to need to use it,

0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:42.040
<v Speaker 2>and then the rest of the month sometimes I'll use

0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:45.399
<v Speaker 2>I love like Fresh makes this rosewater toner, which is

0:19:45.400 --> 0:19:49.520
<v Speaker 2>basically just like a hydrating cleansing. I don't know. It

0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:51.240
<v Speaker 2>just feels like a really nice and refreshing and I

0:19:51.280 --> 0:19:53.639
<v Speaker 2>do it on cotton cotton ball or cotton pat. It

0:19:53.680 --> 0:19:56.520
<v Speaker 2>just kind of gets all the rest of the all

0:19:56.560 --> 0:19:58.440
<v Speaker 2>of the residue off. And I also like to use

0:19:58.480 --> 0:20:01.879
<v Speaker 2>reusable cotton pads because I really care about the environment,

0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:03.919
<v Speaker 2>and I found out cotton is a very dirty crop,

0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:07.000
<v Speaker 2>so I'm trying to really and if you think about it,

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:09.159
<v Speaker 2>most cotton comes in a plastic bag, so you're just

0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:10.080
<v Speaker 2>creating a ton of waste.

0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:11.520
<v Speaker 3>So yes, reusable cotton pads.

0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:13.720
<v Speaker 2>The same thing for when I remove my makeup, I

0:20:13.800 --> 0:20:15.719
<v Speaker 2>get these black microfiber ones so you don't see all

0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:17.159
<v Speaker 2>the messcara on them, you throw them in the wash.

0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:17.760
<v Speaker 3>It's amazing.

0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:21.720
<v Speaker 1>So toner is something that it's not one size fits all.

0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:23.840
<v Speaker 1>You can't just walk into the store and just pick

0:20:23.920 --> 0:20:25.800
<v Speaker 1>up any old toner and say this is going to

0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:28.720
<v Speaker 1>work for me. It's really important to know your skin.

0:20:29.440 --> 0:20:31.159
<v Speaker 1>One thing that all toners have in common is that

0:20:31.160 --> 0:20:34.399
<v Speaker 1>they all have alcohol. And so what its main purpose

0:20:34.400 --> 0:20:35.879
<v Speaker 1>is to do is to close up your pores and

0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:39.000
<v Speaker 1>prep you for the next step. But depending on your

0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:41.720
<v Speaker 1>skin type, you might be looking for other ingredients. Like

0:20:41.760 --> 0:20:44.239
<v Speaker 1>if you have oily skin, you might want something that

0:20:44.280 --> 0:20:47.080
<v Speaker 1>has like, say, like acid in it. If you have

0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:49.560
<v Speaker 1>drier skin, you want something that's more moisturizing, So maybe

0:20:49.560 --> 0:20:51.960
<v Speaker 1>you'll choose something that has rose water or something like

0:20:52.000 --> 0:20:56.160
<v Speaker 1>that in it. But it really depends. A popular ingredient

0:20:56.280 --> 0:20:59.159
<v Speaker 1>in toner is witch hazel, and sometimes people just use

0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:02.040
<v Speaker 1>witch hazel itself as their toner. And this is an

0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:04.880
<v Speaker 1>extract from a plant or an herb, and it has

0:21:04.960 --> 0:21:07.600
<v Speaker 1>properties that have been shown to kind of be anti aging.

0:21:08.400 --> 0:21:10.600
<v Speaker 1>And if you think back to what we said at

0:21:10.600 --> 0:21:13.960
<v Speaker 1>the top, elastin and collagen are part of these There

0:21:14.000 --> 0:21:15.879
<v Speaker 1>are these fibers that are in all the layers of

0:21:15.880 --> 0:21:18.639
<v Speaker 1>your skin, but those things get broken down, and so

0:21:19.359 --> 0:21:22.800
<v Speaker 1>which hazel has properties that prevent the breakdown of collagen

0:21:22.800 --> 0:21:25.520
<v Speaker 1>and elastin and keep that skin looking tight. If you

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:27.400
<v Speaker 1>would have asked me where does which hazel come from?

0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:28.800
<v Speaker 1>I would have been like, I don't know, probably some

0:21:28.920 --> 0:21:31.720
<v Speaker 1>lady named Hazel that nobody liked, or something I've been

0:21:31.760 --> 0:21:34.040
<v Speaker 1>seeing lately witch hazel blowing up. And I just bought

0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:36.679
<v Speaker 1>at Target this little small travel bottle of which Hazel.

0:21:36.760 --> 0:21:39.480
<v Speaker 1>That's like cucumber with hazel, and it smells like cucumber.

0:21:39.480 --> 0:21:40.840
<v Speaker 1>But I'm like, is it I don't know if it's

0:21:40.840 --> 0:21:44.800
<v Speaker 1>just cucumber fragrance or if does cucumber have properties? Well,

0:21:44.840 --> 0:21:46.600
<v Speaker 1>you know people used to put cucumbers on their eyes

0:21:46.640 --> 0:21:48.840
<v Speaker 1>in the older movies. They would have the cucumbers on

0:21:48.840 --> 0:21:51.720
<v Speaker 1>the eyes at the spa. Maybe it's just bathing with chazel.

0:21:51.840 --> 0:21:56.560
<v Speaker 1>It seems like that would be expensive and probably not good,

0:21:57.440 --> 0:22:01.919
<v Speaker 1>not good for all skin. But it's pretty cool, right,

0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:03.800
<v Speaker 1>This is really good because it shows like your skincare

0:22:03.880 --> 0:22:07.960
<v Speaker 1>routine can be all natural. It's from Nearth, straight from

0:22:07.960 --> 0:22:11.600
<v Speaker 1>those plants. I like it. Okay, So now we've gotten

0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:14.240
<v Speaker 1>to the point where we have stripped ourselves all the

0:22:14.240 --> 0:22:16.960
<v Speaker 1>way down. Our skin is completely clean. We're going to

0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:18.560
<v Speaker 1>take a quick break and when we get back, we're

0:22:18.560 --> 0:22:20.720
<v Speaker 1>going to talk about how to build your skin back up.

0:22:38.760 --> 0:22:41.199
<v Speaker 1>And we're back now that our skin is clean, right,

0:22:41.680 --> 0:22:44.080
<v Speaker 1>what do we need to put on our skin to

0:22:44.160 --> 0:22:47.000
<v Speaker 1>get us to get that glow? Let's build it back up.

0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:50.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm super into essence. A lot of people swear by

0:22:50.040 --> 0:22:51.800
<v Speaker 2>the sk two one. I think it's like the biggest

0:22:51.840 --> 0:22:55.840
<v Speaker 2>selling essence. It's pretty pricey. Fresh created one called the

0:22:56.240 --> 0:23:00.240
<v Speaker 2>Black Tea and Kombucha Essence. I love the texture of it.

0:23:00.040 --> 0:23:03.880
<v Speaker 2>It's a watery texture, but it leaves this like really soft,

0:23:04.119 --> 0:23:05.920
<v Speaker 2>like your skin feels like a baby's butt.

0:23:06.040 --> 0:23:06.440
<v Speaker 3>Literally.

0:23:06.680 --> 0:23:08.480
<v Speaker 1>One of the things that I really like is when

0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:12.399
<v Speaker 1>I have skincare that feels smooth or slippery, you know

0:23:12.400 --> 0:23:14.520
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, Like, it's not all tacky, it doesn't

0:23:14.520 --> 0:23:18.560
<v Speaker 1>feel crazy on my face. What material gives me that feeling?

0:23:18.720 --> 0:23:24.800
<v Speaker 1>It's actually silicone, hmm, like silicone Valley silicone, I don't

0:23:24.800 --> 0:23:29.920
<v Speaker 1>think so. Silicone is what gives your moisturizers and vitamins

0:23:29.960 --> 0:23:32.800
<v Speaker 1>that that extra slippery feeling. It's just the nature of

0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:36.240
<v Speaker 1>that material. And it's really important to put those those

0:23:36.320 --> 0:23:39.280
<v Speaker 1>types of moisturizers on first, the ones that are really

0:23:39.359 --> 0:23:42.639
<v Speaker 1>slippery and wet, those should come in contact with your

0:23:42.640 --> 0:23:45.000
<v Speaker 1>face first so that it can absorb all of those things.

0:23:45.359 --> 0:23:47.240
<v Speaker 1>Because if you put on something that's way too heavy

0:23:47.760 --> 0:23:51.160
<v Speaker 1>and then you try and put on the slippery, slick stuff,

0:23:51.240 --> 0:23:54.960
<v Speaker 1>the lighter stuff, it won't penetrate through that thicker cream

0:23:55.000 --> 0:23:57.880
<v Speaker 1>that you put on top. So start off with the slick,

0:23:58.160 --> 0:24:01.120
<v Speaker 1>silicone based stuff and work your way to the heavy

0:24:01.119 --> 0:24:04.399
<v Speaker 1>set and then word ahead, not putting basoline on and

0:24:04.480 --> 0:24:08.040
<v Speaker 1>then putting on serums. It doesn't work like that.

0:24:08.200 --> 0:24:12.560
<v Speaker 2>No, then I will go into my vitamins. So I

0:24:12.560 --> 0:24:15.600
<v Speaker 2>love like either like a vitamin C. There's one I

0:24:15.640 --> 0:24:18.639
<v Speaker 2>love from Sunday Riley called I think it's called CEO,

0:24:18.720 --> 0:24:20.280
<v Speaker 2>which is like their vitamin C serum.

0:24:20.400 --> 0:24:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Vitamin C is absorbic acid and it really helps with

0:24:26.160 --> 0:24:29.919
<v Speaker 1>collagen synthesis. It helps with the elasticity, it helps with

0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:33.239
<v Speaker 1>your skin looking like plump, but it also helps you

0:24:33.800 --> 0:24:34.800
<v Speaker 1>look brighter.

0:24:35.000 --> 0:24:37.639
<v Speaker 2>My thing for brightening in general, which would be like

0:24:37.640 --> 0:24:41.840
<v Speaker 2>a vitamin C or some stronger ingredients like hydro keenone

0:24:41.880 --> 0:24:45.240
<v Speaker 2>if you're having some discoloration. Are really good, especially like

0:24:45.280 --> 0:24:48.800
<v Speaker 2>on brown skin, the hydro keenone, especially on everybody. I

0:24:48.800 --> 0:24:51.560
<v Speaker 2>think vitamin C is like a great ingredient unless you

0:24:51.640 --> 0:24:53.320
<v Speaker 2>are sensitive to it, which some people are.

0:24:53.400 --> 0:24:55.159
<v Speaker 1>I just want to look like the sun walking around.

0:24:56.119 --> 0:24:57.720
<v Speaker 1>I want to walk out my house and people be like,

0:24:57.760 --> 0:25:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, what's happening. It's just me. It's just me.

0:25:02.160 --> 0:25:05.840
<v Speaker 1>It's just me. I'm walking on sunshine. Whoa do you

0:25:05.840 --> 0:25:08.720
<v Speaker 1>remember those wasn't an artist named vitamin C? Yeah, back

0:25:08.760 --> 0:25:10.800
<v Speaker 1>when we were in like middle school or high school.

0:25:10.920 --> 0:25:12.840
<v Speaker 1>It was the same woman that did that. She did

0:25:12.880 --> 0:25:17.480
<v Speaker 1>the song, that graduation song. Yes, that everybody was playing. God,

0:25:17.800 --> 0:25:20.320
<v Speaker 1>I know what you're talking about. So you can get

0:25:20.440 --> 0:25:22.840
<v Speaker 1>vitamin C in a lot of different ways. You can

0:25:22.960 --> 0:25:28.160
<v Speaker 1>use serums, you can use creams. Some people just sell

0:25:28.280 --> 0:25:31.480
<v Speaker 1>concentrated vitamins and things like that. You could take pills.

0:25:31.880 --> 0:25:33.720
<v Speaker 1>But one thing that I did that I don't know

0:25:33.760 --> 0:25:38.800
<v Speaker 1>if it actually worked, but I was actually just taking

0:25:39.040 --> 0:25:43.679
<v Speaker 1>lemons from the grocery store, squeezing them and then using

0:25:43.760 --> 0:25:46.960
<v Speaker 1>a cotton pad and then rubbing lemon juice on my face.

0:25:47.000 --> 0:25:49.439
<v Speaker 1>So I was getting that vitamin C direct to the

0:25:49.480 --> 0:25:53.280
<v Speaker 1>skin straight from the source, and I felt like it

0:25:53.320 --> 0:25:55.119
<v Speaker 1>was amazing. I felt like I looked great.

0:25:55.240 --> 0:25:55.560
<v Speaker 3>You did.

0:25:57.840 --> 0:25:59.719
<v Speaker 2>Then I'll do an I cream. There's a Shiitsado one

0:25:59.760 --> 0:26:01.440
<v Speaker 2>that I love. I have to look up the name

0:26:01.480 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 2>of it. It's in like a skinny white tube. I

0:26:03.280 --> 0:26:04.879
<v Speaker 2>have to pull it up. But it's like my favorite

0:26:04.920 --> 0:26:06.680
<v Speaker 2>I cream right now. And I like a I cream

0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:09.440
<v Speaker 2>that's actually not too heavy. I think people go way

0:26:09.480 --> 0:26:11.159
<v Speaker 2>too heavy on I cream and that's how you end

0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:13.880
<v Speaker 2>up getting all the little milia, which are those little

0:26:13.920 --> 0:26:15.879
<v Speaker 2>like hard bumps that you can kind of get around

0:26:15.880 --> 0:26:18.359
<v Speaker 2>your eye. It's really delicate skin, and people will clog

0:26:18.800 --> 0:26:21.639
<v Speaker 2>those pores with too heavy So people like these really

0:26:21.720 --> 0:26:23.840
<v Speaker 2>rich I creams like I need moisture. I need moisture,

0:26:23.880 --> 0:26:26.199
<v Speaker 2>and it's you need moisture, but like not to the

0:26:26.280 --> 0:26:28.120
<v Speaker 2>level that you think you do and you're clogging.

0:26:28.200 --> 0:26:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I remember a long time ago I read something that

0:26:30.040 --> 0:26:32.199
<v Speaker 1>said that you should be putting your so you're not

0:26:32.240 --> 0:26:33.720
<v Speaker 1>too rough with that. You should be putting your I

0:26:33.800 --> 0:26:35.880
<v Speaker 1>cream on with your ring finger something where you don't

0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:38.000
<v Speaker 1>have you know, we can press all hard with our

0:26:38.040 --> 0:26:40.200
<v Speaker 1>index finger, but it's harder a little bit with your

0:26:40.280 --> 0:26:43.119
<v Speaker 1>to press with your ring finger. For most people, I

0:26:43.119 --> 0:26:45.280
<v Speaker 1>see you pressing pretty hard, though, Yeah, I don't feel

0:26:45.280 --> 0:26:47.920
<v Speaker 1>a difference. I'm like press lightly so much that you're

0:26:47.960 --> 0:26:50.680
<v Speaker 1>not even moving the rest of your hand. That's so light. Yeah,

0:26:50.680 --> 0:26:52.320
<v Speaker 1>that's how you're supposed to be treating that area. It

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:55.480
<v Speaker 1>is tender. So a lot of I creams have stuff

0:26:55.520 --> 0:26:59.000
<v Speaker 1>like caffeine, which actually can constrict blood vessels, so you

0:26:59.040 --> 0:27:01.640
<v Speaker 1>won't see your blood vestis because the skin is so thin,

0:27:01.680 --> 0:27:04.040
<v Speaker 1>so you can see blood vessels sometimes underneath people's eyes,

0:27:04.040 --> 0:27:06.840
<v Speaker 1>particularly people with pale or skin HM. And so you

0:27:06.880 --> 0:27:09.600
<v Speaker 1>get caffeine so you can kind of constrict those blood vessels.

0:27:09.880 --> 0:27:11.760
<v Speaker 1>But that seems counterintuitive. I feel like I want the

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:14.399
<v Speaker 1>blood to flow. You know. I don't know about you,

0:27:14.440 --> 0:27:16.679
<v Speaker 1>but I wanted to keep those blood vessels at one

0:27:16.760 --> 0:27:20.560
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent capacity maximum flow through. So then maybe you

0:27:20.560 --> 0:27:24.800
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't drink so much coffee. That's not what No, this is, Okay,

0:27:25.040 --> 0:27:29.879
<v Speaker 1>that's a different all right. Sorry. So the next step

0:27:29.880 --> 0:27:31.320
<v Speaker 1>after that is hydration.

0:27:31.560 --> 0:27:34.399
<v Speaker 2>I kind of rotate with my with my moisturizers depending

0:27:34.440 --> 0:27:37.399
<v Speaker 2>on how my skin's feeling, and sometimes I'll add an

0:27:37.440 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 2>oil into it if I feel really dry or like

0:27:39.560 --> 0:27:42.240
<v Speaker 2>in the winter. There is a oil that I love

0:27:42.400 --> 0:27:46.520
<v Speaker 2>called Supernol, which is like an antioxidant extreme glow oil.

0:27:46.560 --> 0:27:48.439
<v Speaker 2>I love the feel, I love the smell, So sometimes

0:27:48.480 --> 0:27:50.760
<v Speaker 2>I'll just use that as my moisture or sometimes I'll

0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:55.480
<v Speaker 2>drop it into an additional moisturizer for like extreme moisture,

0:27:55.560 --> 0:27:59.480
<v Speaker 2>and I rotate my moisturizers. I use Ciseado, I use philosophy.

0:28:00.760 --> 0:28:02.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I just use all kinds of moisturizers land

0:28:02.720 --> 0:28:05.600
<v Speaker 2>come mixed, really nice ones. But I'm a big fan

0:28:05.680 --> 0:28:08.160
<v Speaker 2>of face oils in general, like if you really need

0:28:08.160 --> 0:28:11.720
<v Speaker 2>the extra hydration, and just in general, I think not

0:28:11.760 --> 0:28:14.359
<v Speaker 2>even if I think like people think I'm oily, I

0:28:14.359 --> 0:28:16.040
<v Speaker 2>don't need to add oil, but oil.

0:28:15.880 --> 0:28:17.560
<v Speaker 3>Is great for your skin in general.

0:28:17.600 --> 0:28:20.320
<v Speaker 2>And like to that whole conversation about like mysolar and

0:28:20.400 --> 0:28:23.160
<v Speaker 2>makeup remover, like oil does break down other oils. So

0:28:23.200 --> 0:28:25.840
<v Speaker 2>sometimes by default, adding oil to oily skin is not

0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:28.520
<v Speaker 2>going to make you oilier. It's actually gonna help control

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:31.600
<v Speaker 2>your oil because your skin's going to have oil on it.

0:28:31.640 --> 0:28:34.719
<v Speaker 2>So the natural reaction for your oily skin is to

0:28:34.880 --> 0:28:36.800
<v Speaker 2>send more oil to the top because it thinks you

0:28:36.840 --> 0:28:38.760
<v Speaker 2>need it. But if the oil is already there. Your

0:28:38.760 --> 0:28:41.200
<v Speaker 2>skin is not going to react that way. So sometimes

0:28:41.280 --> 0:28:43.880
<v Speaker 2>even oilier people should be using more oil.

0:28:44.000 --> 0:28:46.320
<v Speaker 1>So one of the things to understand is we have

0:28:46.400 --> 0:28:49.600
<v Speaker 1>glands that produce oil in the dermis, so that's right

0:28:49.680 --> 0:28:54.560
<v Speaker 1>under our epidermis, and oil skin isn't all bad. The

0:28:54.600 --> 0:28:56.880
<v Speaker 1>thing is you want to find the right balance. Sometimes

0:28:57.160 --> 0:28:59.680
<v Speaker 1>people have really oily skin, so they make a lot

0:28:59.720 --> 0:29:03.400
<v Speaker 1>of oil and that might lead to them getting zits

0:29:03.520 --> 0:29:07.240
<v Speaker 1>or pimples and stuff. Yeah, but you ail is good

0:29:07.320 --> 0:29:10.280
<v Speaker 1>for you because it actually like helps preserve your skin,

0:29:10.760 --> 0:29:13.720
<v Speaker 1>and people with oil skin tend to have thicker skin

0:29:13.960 --> 0:29:18.040
<v Speaker 1>and fewer wrinkles. The key is to yes, you might

0:29:18.080 --> 0:29:19.880
<v Speaker 1>want to get away get rid of the extra oil,

0:29:19.880 --> 0:29:22.000
<v Speaker 1>but don't take away the good oil. Yeah, so you

0:29:22.000 --> 0:29:24.080
<v Speaker 1>don't want to strip it all the way Yeah, don't

0:29:24.120 --> 0:29:25.240
<v Speaker 1>strip it all the way down.

0:29:25.440 --> 0:29:28.960
<v Speaker 2>And then I do sunscreen. I love, like the Glossier

0:29:29.520 --> 0:29:32.640
<v Speaker 2>one is really great. It's like clear. It also gives

0:29:32.640 --> 0:29:34.840
<v Speaker 2>a nice glow, so like even after piling all that on,

0:29:34.960 --> 0:29:37.840
<v Speaker 2>it like it weirdly like gnats and glows at the

0:29:37.840 --> 0:29:38.360
<v Speaker 2>same time.

0:29:38.440 --> 0:29:40.160
<v Speaker 3>So that's my last step before makeup.

0:29:40.240 --> 0:29:42.360
<v Speaker 1>Sunscreen is a really important step when it comes to

0:29:42.480 --> 0:29:46.720
<v Speaker 1>like having healthy skin, like not just sunscreen for your face,

0:29:46.840 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>head to toe sunscreen. None of us should really be

0:29:50.200 --> 0:29:52.960
<v Speaker 1>going outside when the sun's blazing like it has been

0:29:53.760 --> 0:29:55.880
<v Speaker 1>without that protective layer on.

0:29:56.160 --> 0:30:00.000
<v Speaker 2>And I like a clear sunscreen a because it feels

0:30:00.560 --> 0:30:03.520
<v Speaker 2>b because it doesn't give you that weird like purply

0:30:03.640 --> 0:30:05.720
<v Speaker 2>cast and especially like the browner your skin is, you

0:30:05.720 --> 0:30:09.000
<v Speaker 2>should definitely be using a clear sunscreen because those ultraviolet

0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:11.400
<v Speaker 2>blocking ones can really show up on brown skin.

0:30:11.560 --> 0:30:13.640
<v Speaker 1>And the way the sunscreen works is that it has

0:30:13.680 --> 0:30:17.520
<v Speaker 1>all of these nanoparticles in it, and those nanoparticles are

0:30:17.640 --> 0:30:21.680
<v Speaker 1>used to basically reflect the sun back out and so

0:30:22.000 --> 0:30:24.880
<v Speaker 1>it is literally a protective layer where that it doesn't

0:30:24.920 --> 0:30:27.719
<v Speaker 1>allow UV rays to get through. Wow. So it's just

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:30.200
<v Speaker 1>like you know how back in the day there were

0:30:30.200 --> 0:30:33.040
<v Speaker 1>those and some people still using those silverfold up things

0:30:33.040 --> 0:30:35.440
<v Speaker 1>that you put in your car to keep the inside

0:30:35.440 --> 0:30:37.680
<v Speaker 1>of the car from getting too hot. Basically we're just

0:30:37.720 --> 0:30:39.920
<v Speaker 1>holding those up on our face and send the sun

0:30:40.000 --> 0:30:42.960
<v Speaker 1>right back to itself. I'm rubber, You're glue back at

0:30:43.000 --> 0:30:47.280
<v Speaker 1>you like, yeah, I mean, it doesn't keep all of

0:30:47.320 --> 0:30:49.920
<v Speaker 1>the sun out, but it keeps a lot of the

0:30:50.040 --> 0:30:52.960
<v Speaker 1>bad sun rays out. So then we had to ask Joanna,

0:30:53.520 --> 0:30:56.360
<v Speaker 1>is there anything we can skip because there's all kinds

0:30:56.360 --> 0:30:58.520
<v Speaker 1>of stuff on the internet and we want to know

0:30:59.280 --> 0:31:01.120
<v Speaker 1>do we really need all of that?

0:31:01.360 --> 0:31:04.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's definitely like products that I feel are overrated.

0:31:04.680 --> 0:31:07.640
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't think anyone in the world needs setting spray,

0:31:07.760 --> 0:31:08.760
<v Speaker 2>Like what what is that?

0:31:09.160 --> 0:31:09.640
<v Speaker 3>What is that?

0:31:09.800 --> 0:31:11.920
<v Speaker 2>Like setting spray? You don't need that, Like what is that?

0:31:12.040 --> 0:31:13.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know what's that supposed to do? Like

0:31:13.800 --> 0:31:15.720
<v Speaker 2>people think that's like a like a deck when you're

0:31:16.000 --> 0:31:17.680
<v Speaker 2>standing down your deck and you need to seal it

0:31:17.720 --> 0:31:19.080
<v Speaker 2>and make it water p Like, No.

0:31:19.080 --> 0:31:22.440
<v Speaker 1>We had just live and die by setting spray. Now

0:31:22.480 --> 0:31:24.800
<v Speaker 1>I know, it's just all the application is wrong. Teeth,

0:31:24.880 --> 0:31:26.760
<v Speaker 1>You're not putting your makeup on right because your makeup

0:31:26.800 --> 0:31:30.760
<v Speaker 1>should stay on, and rolling is not super necessary unless

0:31:30.760 --> 0:31:32.200
<v Speaker 1>you have something kind of coming up.

0:31:32.080 --> 0:31:33.400
<v Speaker 2>For me, Like I don't think you need to do

0:31:33.440 --> 0:31:36.560
<v Speaker 2>like rolling or guasha or anything like that unless you're

0:31:36.720 --> 0:31:38.560
<v Speaker 2>seriously like puffy.

0:31:38.440 --> 0:31:39.000
<v Speaker 3>You know what I mean.

0:31:39.000 --> 0:31:41.600
<v Speaker 2>Like those those techniques are meant to distribute the fluid

0:31:41.640 --> 0:31:44.240
<v Speaker 2>that's under your skin. So you know, you flew in

0:31:44.320 --> 0:31:46.280
<v Speaker 2>late last night and you're eating salty French fries on

0:31:46.320 --> 0:31:48.240
<v Speaker 2>the plane and we're up at five a m. Glamoring

0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:52.280
<v Speaker 2>and you look puffy. Then like, yeah, let's try to

0:31:52.320 --> 0:31:55.440
<v Speaker 2>distribute some of that fluid like every day or whatever.

0:31:55.520 --> 0:31:57.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it feels nice, but I don't think you're

0:31:57.560 --> 0:31:59.440
<v Speaker 2>really like having some gigantic effect.

0:31:59.560 --> 0:32:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Does it have to be jade? Some people use rose

0:32:01.840 --> 0:32:05.800
<v Speaker 1>quartz and is that spiritual? Like I'm trying to figure

0:32:05.800 --> 0:32:10.000
<v Speaker 1>out what So I learned a lot here, but something

0:32:10.040 --> 0:32:12.720
<v Speaker 1>that you haven't heard us talk about just yet that

0:32:12.840 --> 0:32:15.800
<v Speaker 1>I think Joanna does beautifully and is really spreading this

0:32:15.880 --> 0:32:19.200
<v Speaker 1>message all across the internet, and that's about being Bear

0:32:19.440 --> 0:32:23.480
<v Speaker 1>in the Air. Yeah, she has a hashtag on her Instagram.

0:32:23.560 --> 0:32:25.600
<v Speaker 1>If you put go on to Instagram and put hashtag

0:32:25.680 --> 0:32:28.640
<v Speaker 1>bear in the Air, you'll see all of these people

0:32:28.680 --> 0:32:32.200
<v Speaker 1>who have been following in her footsteps as far as

0:32:32.640 --> 0:32:37.880
<v Speaker 1>keeping your skin absolutely free of all things when you

0:32:37.920 --> 0:32:41.000
<v Speaker 1>are flying, yeah, and really using that time to put

0:32:41.040 --> 0:32:44.880
<v Speaker 1>on your best serums and vitamins and whatnot. I love.

0:32:45.040 --> 0:32:47.080
<v Speaker 2>I love when I see people tagging me and they're

0:32:47.080 --> 0:32:48.880
<v Speaker 2>going all in like with a sheet mask, Like I

0:32:48.920 --> 0:32:51.480
<v Speaker 2>don't even care who's looking at least under eye mask,

0:32:51.520 --> 0:32:53.680
<v Speaker 2>like under a sunglass. But people got like sheet masks

0:32:54.160 --> 0:32:57.760
<v Speaker 2>or like landling gloves. I'm like, you guys are like committed,

0:32:57.800 --> 0:32:59.400
<v Speaker 2>and I love it. I've definitely done a sheet mask

0:32:59.440 --> 0:33:02.040
<v Speaker 2>on the plane. I'm like every extra thing you can do.

0:33:02.080 --> 0:33:03.800
<v Speaker 2>And it's funny because sometimes people will say, oh, I

0:33:03.800 --> 0:33:06.080
<v Speaker 2>don't like face oil, it feels too greasy on my skin.

0:33:06.520 --> 0:33:09.040
<v Speaker 2>I guarantee you, if you get on like a long

0:33:09.080 --> 0:33:11.320
<v Speaker 2>haul flight and you put oil on and you feel greasy,

0:33:11.360 --> 0:33:13.000
<v Speaker 2>by the time you land, your skin is gonna just

0:33:13.040 --> 0:33:15.520
<v Speaker 2>feel like soft and supple and you're not gonna feel

0:33:15.520 --> 0:33:17.800
<v Speaker 2>any bit of oil whatsoever because your skin's just gonna

0:33:17.880 --> 0:33:18.960
<v Speaker 2>drink all of it.

0:33:20.280 --> 0:33:20.520
<v Speaker 3>T T.

0:33:21.040 --> 0:33:24.040
<v Speaker 1>I feel like this was revolutionary for me. Yeah, I

0:33:24.160 --> 0:33:28.120
<v Speaker 1>realize that I have a good foundation where I have

0:33:28.240 --> 0:33:30.800
<v Speaker 1>some of the things that she is talking about. Maybe

0:33:30.800 --> 0:33:33.360
<v Speaker 1>not the specific products. Some of these products I don't

0:33:33.360 --> 0:33:37.200
<v Speaker 1>know if I can afford them, but I think I'm

0:33:37.240 --> 0:33:40.640
<v Speaker 1>on my way. I think I have the products, and

0:33:40.720 --> 0:33:43.480
<v Speaker 1>I need a little bit more discipline with doing these

0:33:43.520 --> 0:33:46.920
<v Speaker 1>things faithfully because sometimes by the time I get to

0:33:47.080 --> 0:33:49.200
<v Speaker 1>the bathroom to get ready to go to bed at night,

0:33:49.360 --> 0:33:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm like a makeup white will do And this is

0:33:52.520 --> 0:33:55.440
<v Speaker 1>just and sometimes I'm like a clinics. White will do anything.

0:33:56.000 --> 0:33:58.520
<v Speaker 1>We'll do toilet paper, toilet paper with a little bit

0:33:58.520 --> 0:34:02.960
<v Speaker 1>of water from the sink well, and I need to

0:34:03.040 --> 0:34:04.840
<v Speaker 1>keep that pillow case will do. And I'll just say,

0:34:04.880 --> 0:34:08.439
<v Speaker 1>now you just laid let the pillowcase take off the day. Yes,

0:34:08.520 --> 0:34:10.920
<v Speaker 1>the pillow case will absorb all the oils. And we

0:34:10.960 --> 0:34:13.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't even talk about washing your pillow case. You got

0:34:13.520 --> 0:34:15.920
<v Speaker 1>to wash your pillow case. Yes, you know, y'all washing

0:34:15.960 --> 0:34:19.560
<v Speaker 1>y'all pillowcases. I changed my pillow throughout the week because

0:34:19.560 --> 0:34:20.799
<v Speaker 1>I have a bunch of the same pillows and I

0:34:20.880 --> 0:34:23.160
<v Speaker 1>just rotate them throughout the bed. I try to wash

0:34:23.160 --> 0:34:26.880
<v Speaker 1>my pillows every time, my pillowcases every time I do laundry.

0:34:27.000 --> 0:34:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Is there anything you're gonna do differently? Now? I think

0:34:29.120 --> 0:34:32.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna try it and find like an essence or something.

0:34:32.200 --> 0:34:34.000
<v Speaker 1>The way she was describing it, I feel like I'm

0:34:34.040 --> 0:34:37.680
<v Speaker 1>missing out on something like this secret that everyone has

0:34:37.719 --> 0:34:41.239
<v Speaker 1>been keeping from me, and I want to try it.

0:34:41.239 --> 0:34:43.680
<v Speaker 1>So I think I'm gonna start doing some googles and

0:34:43.680 --> 0:34:45.960
<v Speaker 1>and get just I'm probably just gonna put what she

0:34:46.160 --> 0:34:48.799
<v Speaker 1>what she uses in my Amazon cart If I'm being honest, yeah,

0:34:48.880 --> 0:34:51.600
<v Speaker 1>just put it all in there and get to and

0:34:51.640 --> 0:34:54.360
<v Speaker 1>then I'll come retrieve the items that. Okay, better for me,

0:34:54.480 --> 0:34:56.520
<v Speaker 1>no problem. I really want some I cream, like I

0:34:57.120 --> 0:34:59.719
<v Speaker 1>have some little samples that I got from like so

0:34:59.800 --> 0:35:03.000
<v Speaker 1>four and I need to just apply, apply, apply, because

0:35:03.000 --> 0:35:05.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't do that and that skin is tender under there.

0:35:05.560 --> 0:35:08.480

<v Speaker 1>millia bumps. Yeah, she told us about those. I don't

0:35:11.280 --> 0:35:13.160
<v Speaker 1>even want to talk about them. Y'all have to google it,

<v Speaker 1>Google millia bumps and be prepared to be disgusted. Yeah,

0:35:18.440 --> 0:35:21.960
