My GLASS SKIN Skincare Routine!

Hello, welcome everyone back to my channel. I hope it goes well for you. Today's video has been a long time coming since I joined this little thing called social media. One of the top requests I get is to share my entire

skin

care

routine

with you and today I'm finally making that a reality. Disclaimer. This video is going to be a little longer than most just because I promised myself that if I'm going to do this, I'm going to do it right. I want to share it with you. exactly every step I take and every product I use to achieve what many call my

glass

skin

so without further ado let's get started right so obviously I have a face full of makeup.

I don't usually wear makeup, you know. Unless I have to be on camera and it's been a long day at work for me, I've been working since 5:00 a.m. m., it is now 9:00 p.m. The first step I do before washing my face is removing my hair from my face, you know one of my pet peeves is putting on makeup. or skin care or something like that on the hairline. It's like nails digging into a blackboard for me. so first I remove my hair from my face, wash my hands very well and then continue with my

skincare

routine

.

The first product I use is the LMS Pro Collagen Naked Cleansing Balm and what I do is I take a small amount of this and I apply it directly to my face. I'm just putting it in the general areas before I really start working on it and if you see me looking this way it's because I have my mirror here now if you watched the video. I posted a few weeks ago where I demonstrated the use of this product on a model. You know my love for this product after posting that video. You all go crazy asking for it, which made me very happy because you know I really want to get it. more into

skincare

as I continue my YouTube career here is something I have always been passionate about, in fact I had a passion for skincare before makeup and after that you know the success of that video and after how many of you went out and got the product elements and said, hey, do you want to partner with us again for another video?

And of course, I didn't have to think twice because I love the product, I love the brand. and I use this product every day anyway now I normally use the original one is this one here this is the one I also used in the video I don't know why I have I don't know why I have so many of these um I use this every day it smells very good, but they just came out with this nude, which means it has no perfumes or fragrances, which is very nice for people who are sensitive to that, like me, who don't really care.

There are many fragrances in my skin care. I like to keep it simple, unless it's that really earthy, spa-like smell, which is what the original smells like, as you see here as I'm talking to you. I'm really working on this. my skin and I am allowing it to work its magic. I'm breaking through the layers and layers and layers of makeup that I have on now, believe it or not, like I said, I don't normally wear makeup except on days when I'm on. having to be in front of the camera and work, but even when I'm not wearing makeup, I always double cleanse every night because it's not just the makeup that I'm breaking down, but the oils that have built up throughout the day. the dirt, the contaminants, so I just need to break them down before I move on to the next cleanse because I'll tell you a double cleanse is what you need, if you're not doing it already, you need to start. literally once you start you can never go back and it's something I've only been doing for the last year and a half and oh my gosh it's something I'll never give up again and this product is really unique because it's like three cleansers. in one you know it goes on like a makeup balm it's safe around the eyes and the whole thing doesn't irritate me and then it breaks down into this oil once it starts to break down the makeup and then once you add a little bit of water to it. it turns into this like cleansing milk, let me have some water, let me show you, okay, so I have some water here, I didn't really think about this, I guess I should have set this up in my bathroom, in front of a nos We sink, but listen, we live and learn, so I just add a little bit of water to my fingers and then, holy cow, by the way, I look crazy and it starts to emulsify into this cleansing milk, like I said, and this is usually the most long. about my makeup you know skincare I feel the process is cleansing my skin because not only do I enjoy it but it feels very relaxing you know something I like about this cleansing balm is that it doesn't dry out your skin like you know What do I mean when you have used different facial cleansers before and it cleans your skin but your face feels so dry after using it like you blink and you feel like your skin is going to crack and when that happens to me it always changes It turned out to be a disaster because my skin It feels so dry that it feels so stripped of its natural oils that my skin ends up breaking out because my oil gland pores have to go into overdrive trying to compensate for the lack of oils because of it. the facial cleanser stripped it away that's why I love it I love a cleansing balm it's because it doesn't strip your skin it leaves it feeling great it breaks everything down everything and also just from my own skincare routine like you saw in the video I posted some videos using this.

I use this exact one on my clients all the time if I have to clean their skin because you don't really have to get too dirty with the water and all that stuff doesn't work. everywhere feels great once you really feel like you know things are starting to come apart and ready to be cleaned. I'm taking this little wipe that comes with the cleansing pump when you buy the product and as you can see it just slides on. Well, my goodness, it feels so good and I'm not being too harsh on this either, as you'll notice with much of my application.

I am very gentle with my skin especially around the eyes, I don't want to tug or tug at anything and if I really need to get between the eyelashes I will use a Q-tip but for the most part I am very gentle and very gentle and delicate so As I said before, I know a lot of things. You guys went out and got this cleansing pump a few weeks ago when I first used it on camera and I was really sure I wasn't surprised by how many people got it but I wanted to wait a few weeks before using it.

I'm saying it again because I wanted to get feedback and I'm telling you that not everyone who has given me feedback after receiving this has given me a 10 out of 10 review, which makes me very happy because I'm glad people see it. . the power of a double cleanse because it is not used often enough. I believe in people's skincare routines, it's very powerful and honestly, if you're going to get this product, this is one of those products that you want to get online on your website. lms.com I will put it below because they connect you. When you learn about the products on their site, they give you complimentary samples in your package.

You can try different products that you may or may not like. I give you free shipping and they even connected us with a discount code. It's the same as last time. It's Spencer Glow. Heard. I don't receive commission or anything. It's 20 off. It's there if you want to use it. I don't know why you wouldn't want to use it. You are going to save a coin if you are going to invest in your skin care. You might as well be smart about it and save some money and take some shortcuts where you can. Now that my skin feels really good, it feels really clean, let's move on to the next step, which is my exfoliant.

I use Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion Age Defining Peel and I literally use the smallest amount of it, it's like the size like a small p and this will be more than enough to use on my skin. Honestly, I only use an exfoliant maybe once a week because I really rely on chemical exfoliants like ahas and bhas um to do most of the work for me, but To be true to showing you, everything I use today will be one day of the week I choose to use this right here after the cleansing balm because I feel like my skin is like the dead cells that have been on it.

My skin has softened a little from the balm, so it's the perfect time to apply a scrub. What I like about this scrub is that the exfoliating particles in it are so small that they literally give me the same results. get from a microdermabrasion treatment, which is really the only reason I convinced myself to spend 70 or 80 on it every time and yes, it is a little expensive, but like everything here, it is an investment and it lasts me a good six months , I mean. I've had this for at least five or six months and I still have a ton of product.

I also don't feel like this one damages my skin, which is really important because I find a lot of scrubs that you get or facial scrubs. you get it in pharmacies, I feel like my skin is damaged a lot by those particles that it contains and I can tell you that if you blindfolded me and put this on one of my hands and you know, the product on one hand and you know a facial scrub less expensive pharmacy and other. I would know right away what the high quality luxury facial scrub was, so again, that's why I convinced myself to invest in this one every time, it's really good and my skin feels it. really smooth after using it okay once I've worked this on I pretty much go back to my wet wipe and just wipe it off you can even see after using this scrub my skin doesn't look irritated you know it doesn't. it looks aggravated it doesn't look irritated it doesn't look too red i had a skin treatment a couple of weeks ago my skin is still healing so there may be a little redness here and there this is a blemish i'm human it happens if i get it a breakout, this is usually the area where I break out so I'm very careful in that area as you'll see with the future products that I use here in a second you'll see how I apply it.

The best way to avoid breakouts, for my last cleanser, I am using the cetaphil gentle skin cleanser and this would technically be the second cleanser and double cleansing process. I just use a dose of this and then apply it. I apply it directly to my face, I like this cleanser and I've been using it for a while because it's simple, you know, for someone with quite sensitive skin like me and not just sensitive skin but reactive skin, which means that at the moment when I get that way I feel. like my skin turns red, it's a really great product because it's fragrance free, it's hyperallergenic and it's basic, and I say basic and in the nicest, most positive way, it's basic in the sense that there aren't a lot of crazy ingredients added to it. , It will not work. to aggravate my skin and it's not going to strip my skin of its natural oils like I was talking about with the balm, it just makes it feel very nice and calm, especially after a physical exfoliant.

I don't want to come in with anything too. It's crazy, so this really is the perfect cleanser for me and you can get it pretty much anywhere at Target CVS Rite Aid or your nearest beauty store. It's okay everywhere, so now that I've got it applied to my skin, I'm going to go to the sink, rinse this off completely, wash off any other um, you know, body makeup that I might have on and I'll be right back, okay, I'm back, my skin. It's super clean and feels like a baby's butt, so let's move on to the next product next.

The product I am using is this Fresh Black Tea Kombucha Facial Treatment Essence. I just pour a good amount of this into the palm of my hand, mix it well and just pat, pat, pat, now I'm going to keep it 100 real with you on this. One, this is definitely not one of those products that you need, but as you can see, I almost ran out for a reason because I use it, why do I use it? because it smells divine and this is coming from someone, like I said. At first I don't even care about fragrances in my skincare unless it's a very particular scent.

I like that very earthy herbal spa scent and it smells so good I wish you could smell it through the screen honestly. I don't even know if this does anything to my skin, I just use it because it smells so good it's an essence so it's one of those things in skincare that you know is optional and just adds to a really nice experience at the end of the day this is what i look forward to every night is washing my face and just getting ready for bed and relaxing from a hectic day and it smells good when i apply it i literally feel yummy i feel like i'm in a spa in the middle of switzerland i feel like i'm going somewhere in life and no one is stopping me it's a vibe it really is so i use it because it smells good and yes that's what i use while i wait for this scent to really settle in skin, I'm going to apply an eye product.

What I'm using is this optical crystal liquid crystal cosmetic eye serum and the way I use it is I apply the smallest amount on my ring finger and then just go in right under my eyes and just tap it lightly. I don't get too close to the lash line here because I just don't feel like it's necessary. My eyes are quite sensitive and eventually thisproduct will work to achieve this. area anyway now I'm not the biggest proponent of eye creams. I have always used whatever facial moisturizer I am using on the rest of my face and use it around my eyes, but I received this as a sample from an order I placed from a brand a while ago and after using it, I really liked the hydration it gave. to the skin around my eyes, I woke up and my face or my you know, my eye area still felt a little sticky with the product, which I know isn't for everyone, but in my skincare routine At night I really like occlusive products.

I like my skin to feel a little sticky. a little bit and yeah that's what it gave me and I really liked it now I will say this is another type of expensive product does it work? Yes, I will buy it again. Listen, I don't know, here's the thing, though a lot. What I'm sharing with you today are my skincare essentials. There are a couple of products here and there that I will change from time to time. Next, I'm going to take the Paulus Choice bha two percent liquid scrub and I'm pouring a good amount of this onto a cotton ball and then gently sweeping it over my face.

I don't like to get it too close to my eyes, but I do brush it over the general areas of my forehead and cheekbones. my chin and my nose, but you'll notice it as I apply this, as I apply any of my skincare products, like I said, I'm not being too aggressive with this, I'm not dragging or pulling, I'm being very, very gentle with this now. For this product, I'll tell you right up front that it's a must-have if you've followed me on Instagram for a while. Now you know I swear by salicylic acid. I have used it every day since I was maybe 12 years old and it has been one of the biggest contributors to my skin's lack of texture.

It really helps keep pores clear by removing dirt and oils that have built up, making it especially great for those of you who struggle with acne or breakouts. I love this. one of choice of polish because it doesn't leave the skin super dry as you know, salicylic acid can tend to do that, it leaves a slightly sticky moisture which I find very pleasant, so we are already halfway there with the skin care routine skin you can already see how everything is starting to look like

glass

skin, everything is coming together, it looks a little shiny, it looks healthy and not a wrinkle to be found and we love that so the next product I'm using It's this rose.

Fresh serum infused with deep hydration oil. You've all seen me use this countless times on my channel, usually for makeup tutorials, and what I do is I pour a small amount of this into the palm of my hand, mix it really well and just like I did with the essence, just I am patting this on and really enjoying using it for both my day and night skincare routine and the reason I add this to my skincare routine is because it has that slight amount of oil in it which I really enjoy a lot of the skincare products that I use, you'll notice that they are non-comedogenic and that's only because I have a history of severe cystic acne.

From the looks of it, you would never know it, but the truth is that about 10 years ago I had I'm not going to go into too much detail about it, but I had surgery and developed a staph infection and because of that, I somehow ended up getting acne. really terrible cystic, specifically around this area of ​​my face, so it is what it is, it sucks, but I have worked very hard to try to control it and control it, so most of the products that you will notice that I use are non-comedogenic, but I still feel like my skin needs some of the hydration it gets from an oil, so incorporating just the smallest amount into my routine has really been the perfect balance without breaking down my skin.

Next I'm using the high potency finishing plus refined cosmetic treatment and I'm only using one dose of this, oh I'm almost out of it, it's more than enough to last my whole face so along with the salicylic acid, retinol is something I have also used almost every day of my life since I was 12 years old. It's something else that I swear, in fact, I've always used this brand called retin-a, which for those of you who don't know what it is, retin-a is a brand name for tretinoin, which is a retinoid which is a form of vitamin a and what What vitamin A does is stimulate the cell renewal rate of the retina of the skin.

Specifically, it's not something you can just pick up and store, it's something my dermatologist has to prescribe me while I'm still using it. There are times when I prefer something a little softer like what I'm using here. This is something you can get. You know you don't need a prescription. You can get it without a prescription. I get it. on their cosmetics website and this is a really good product if you're just starting out with retinols, they offer one that's not as powerful as this one and if you're just starting out with retinols like I told you, you're really going to want to make it easy for you.

Towards this, it is important to keep in mind that skin care is a very individualistic thing, what might work for me may not work for you and vice versa, because I am using this and the way I am using it and the way I I'm using this and the way I'm using it. I'm layering it, it may not work for you. I'm just sharing with you what worked for me and what helped me achieve this glass-like skin result over the years, but it's been something that's been in the works for a long time. Over the years, if you're just starting out with retinol, you might not want to use as much as I do today in terms of actives and, you know, ahas, bhas, physical exfoliants, that's a lot for someone.

Who's just starting out now it's a lot for someone who even has experience using them but this has been something I've been using for years since I was 12 and it worked for me and my skin has developed a tolerance for it, I joke. About saying I have the skin of a dinosaur, that tolerance has really developed to be able to handle the layers of all these products now, if you're just starting out, you're definitely going to want to wear sunscreen with this, I mean. You should still be wearing sunscreen every day, but especially when you're using chemical exfoliants, you should be wearing sunscreen even if you don't wear it every day, guys, it's so crucial.

I'm a big proponent of sunscreen, especially in my situation, I've talked about it before, but I had vitiligo so I don't even go out in the sun because I have that Cuban blood running through me. I tan very quickly. I go dark very quickly, but in an attempt to hide my vitiligo patches. I choose not to expose myself to the sun. I apply sunscreen every day. I reapply it throughout the day and that's my norm, even if it means I'm as white as a ghost, that's fine, but I will say my skin is yours. Your skin will never feel softer than mine, it's baby soft and that's all because I take care of my skin, so moral of the story take care of your skin and use your sunscreen.

Ok guys, we are officially at the last step of my skincare routine. and the last product i'm using is this ren's ever calm nighttime recovery balm and this is definitely the thickest of all the products i'm using here today. I'm just taking the smallest amount on my ring finger before really working it out. I put it in my hands and I melt the balm and I just press it right above the highest points of my cheekbones a little bit on my forehead on my chin I even use it a little bit as a lip balm and then I just mix it on my hands too , I really enjoy using this product because it's that occlusive product that I have, it's the last step where it just locks in all the moisture and all the skincare products that I used up until this point and there we have it kids, this is officially For the end of my Glass Skin skincare routine, if you have any questions feel free to leave them below in the comments.
