- Good morning.
Good morning. Good morning.
It's 7:30 in the morning.
I am in beautiful Venice, Italy right now,
with my Armani Beauty family.
And we are here at the Venice Film Festival.
So, Elle decided to stop by,
because they wanted to wake up with me.
So this is waking up with Elle.
So to start my day, first and foremost,
I always like to start with a little deep breathing,
little breathing exercises.
And then from there, honestly,
I like to make a cup of coffee, like to have my water,
and then just turn some tunes on, get the day started good.
So, today it's kind of a fun day.
It's my first day in Venice.
So I'm gonna go to the gym, get a little workout in,
come back here, have a little glam session,
do a little shoot.
And then we're going to the premiere
of Luca Guadagnino's new film
with one of my lovely friends, Taylor Russell,
who I haven't seen in a while, and I'm very excited.
We're just gonna take it step-by-step.
So, good morning. And then it'll be evening.
All right, let's do it.
So honestly, crisscross apple sauce, hands in front of you,
back straight.
In through the nose and out through the mouth.
(gentle music)
Yeah.
And it's a beautiful day.
Let's get this day started.
(bright music)
Okay.
So I don't know about you guys,
but I hate brushing my teeth and then drinking coffee,
'cause I feel like I'm just defeating the purpose
of brushing my teeth.
So I always start my day with a cup of coffee
and then I go right in to brush my teeth.
So I guess I should probably do that now
'cause I'm done with this.
So my choice of toothpaste
is the Crest 3D Whitening toothpaste right here.
This bad boy.
I feel like it really works with keeping my teeth white.
And then also, I just kind of like the flavor.
The radiant mint. It's nice.
Makes my breath feel good.
I also have a matching toothbrush, which I just realized.
So. Pretty cool.
That was totally unplanned, but hey, here we are.
Also, if you brush your teeth with warm water,
it kind of freaks me out.
So I'm a cold water toothbrusher.
Here we go.
Anyways. How's your morning?
You guys doing okay? Everything good?
Maybe you can leave a comment or something, but anyways,
I'm gonna brush my teeth now.
My mom always told me to do circular motions
and sing 'Happy Birthday'.
I don't really do that anymore, but.
Dental hygiene is important
I've never spit on camera before. That's a first.
All right.
Next, I'm gonna wash my face.
So I'm a huge fan of Kiehl's.
So this is their Facial Fuel product.
It almost feels like caffeine on your skin. It's not.
But I just like that in the morning,
it kind of gives me a little bit of an energy boost
through my skin.
So, that's my first step.
After that, I love this product.
This is the Armani Beauty Meta Concentrate.
This makes your skin feel a little bit tighter.
So I put this on before my moisturizer.
And then after that, I am a huge fan of this moisturizer.
Obviously, as you can see, it has been beaten up
because I take it everywhere.
I just got back from Barbados.
So it's been through quite the experience down there.
But this is their daily moisturizer.
I like it 'cause it's really light, so it goes on easy.
It's not a product that feels very thick on your skin.
I've been using this literally since, I think high school.
So stick to what works.
Let's just do it. Let's just wash our face, you know.
Let's get this day started.
Clean hands, as always. Let's start with that.
'Cause nobody wants any bad stuff on your face.
I use some warm water to kind of open the pores
when I'm washing my face.
And then I go right in with the product.
Saving the ocean, saving the turtles.
Turn the water off. Always.
Just a little bit goes a long way.
Nice circular motions.
Finally get in there on the forehead.
(water running)
I'm gonna get a fresh towel and just lightly pat the skin.
It's early. I'm a little jet lagged, not gonna lie.
All right. So, first product.
Boom.
So again, this is the Armani Beauty Meta Concentrate.
A little goes a long way.
So we've got this little blob on my finger.
I just rub it in like that.
It's kind of nice.
Taps on the skin to kind of get it moving.
And then nice and easy, very kind under your eyes,
and right into the forehead.
Got that one on.
And then right into the skin.
So, same thing, like I was telling you guys,
it's not a super heavy product.
So again, a little goes a long way.
So just a little bit like that. Same thing.
Nice circular motion.
Look at that. I'm glowing.
Just kidding.
Okay, next thing that I do.
I'm a big probiotic guy.
So I've been using Seed's probiotic.
I love it for gut health.
I take it every morning, two tabs.
And it's just been something
that kind of is a part my religious morning routine.
So, I'll show you what they look like. They're kind of cute.
This is a great brand and they're awesome.
They're very environmentally friendly.
So what they do is when you get the first order of this
and you do like a monthly subscription,
they send it in a package,
so they don't send you another bottle.
They actually just send a little package of the pill.
So that's pretty awesome.
I need a water.
So I'm gonna go grab a water and I'll be right back.
(bright music)
Taking pills with sparkling water is kind of weird,
but, hey, here we are.
All right, next step in my routine.
I'm a big eyedrop guy.
I have an astigmatism and also my eyes get very, very dry.
So I've found that these ones work pretty great.
These are the Lumify drops.
They also make your eyes super white.
So I do these right before I start my day.
I also use 'em at work too.
So this is a little secret for all you people out there
who watch "Outerbanks".
And I missed twice.
All right, well.
And lastly, I like to do this little guy right here.
This is Armani Beauty's Aqua di Gio. My favorite fragrance.
I do a little dabble on the wrist like that, mix it in.
And I'm ready to go.
So next up, I'm gonna go figure out
what I'm gonna wear for the day
as I'm running around Venice.
And you know, you guys can come with.
You wanna come check out? Help me pick out an outfit?
Let's do it.
So, I got a couple errands I gotta run today.
And I have this outfit.
It's kind of been sitting in the back of my head.
You guys wanna see it?
You wanna check it out?
Well, you can't like, watch me change.
You know, that's kind of weird.
Okay, stop. Stop.
Go away.
Whoa.
(bright music)
Well, I got dressed, which is a rarity.
So I'm gonna take advantage of it.
We've got friends in town.
So gonna go meet them,
go run around Venice for a little bit,
and then go to this premiere later.
So, Elle, thank you for coming and hanging out with me.
That was sweet of you.
Alright, I'm getting outta here. Bye.
Oh, and the last thing before I go.
New Aqua di Gio.
All right.
Bye.
