- Of course, of course.
Hi, I'm Amelia Singson, a makeup artist
and self-proclaimed skincare enthusiast.
And in this video, I'm gonna be taking you
through my top five skincare products for glowy skin.

Okay, my face is clean.
It is freshly washed, and I just misted it.
So the first step for glowy skin is an exfoliant.
There's different types that you can use.
I have this one from Alpha-H.
This is their Liquid Gold.
So this is packed with glycolic acid, and that is an AHA.
And what that's designed to do is
basically eat away all the dead skin on the surface.
So you would take the toner and a cotton swab,
and you would just pop some on there
and then swipe it over the skin.
This is something that you would do at night
basically to prep your skin for the following day
where you're gonna put makeup on.
I would suggest only using this maybe every second night
or a few nights a week, not every single night.
Your skin doesn't need it.
And then you are left with the option of
either following it with your normal serum and moisturizer,
or you leave your skin bare with just the toner on.
And then you go to bed for a more intense exfoliation.
The next product must-have for glowy skin would be a serum.
Two of my favorites are these guys.
So depending on what your skin needs,
I always recommend something that is quite hydrating.
And one of my favorites is
the Elemental Herbology Cell Nourish Serum.
This one is packed with vitamins,
anti-oxidants, green tea, CoQ10.
It also has Kombuchka in it as well.
And these are ingredients
that are gonna help to revitalize the skin.
They're gonna help to nourish.
And I feel like when I put it on,
my skin is just getting a big cuddle.
And then one of my other favorite serums is
the Murad Revitalixir Recovery Serum for face and eyes.
And this one is fabulous because it is super hydrating.
It has ingredients like hyaluronic acid,
caffeine, which is really good around the eye area
because you can use it to depuff
and then also bring circulation.
And it also has anti-oxidants in it as well.
So you could do one pump of this all over the face
or a pump of this.
So we're gonna do the Elemental Herbology one.
I will usually do...
I don't think I have any left. (laughs)
(upbeat music)
This one also has the most beautiful botanical smell.
So when I put it on, I'm always just kind of like
taking a moment to breathe it in
because it's just so calming.
It smells like you're at a spa.
My face really needed that. (laughs)
So my next must-have for glowy skin is a face oil.
So this one from KORA Organics is
a kind of medium consistency oil.
It's not too thin.
It's not too thick.
This one helps to really nourish the skin.
It leaves you with a beautiful glow.
And it's also something that you can mix
into your foundation.
You can mix it into a moisturizer
if you don't want to apply it straight onto the skin.
So I'll usually take three drops of that,
and it's totally up to you
whether you mix it with a moisturizer
or you just go straight onto the skin with it.
If your skin is more on the oily side,
then you can skip this step entirely,
or you could go for an oil that has more of a drier finish.
And by dry, I mean the oil is quite thin,
so that makes it more absorbent.
And then you can see the finish
on my skin already is becoming a lot more glowy.
My next must-have for glowy skin is a good moisturizer.
For me, it is the Murad Nutrient-Charged Water Gel.
This is a gel-like consistency.
It's super hydrating.
It's packed with hyaluronic acid, peptides,
lots of vitamins, really great ingredients
to nourish and strengthen the barrier of your skin.
So this is a really great one for all skin types.
It's nice and lightweight.
But at the same time, it is very hydrating.
It's not a kind of moisturizer that leaves your skin feeling
like it has a heavy layer on it.
Because it's that gel consistency as well,
it works really well if you keep it in the fridge.
So I keep mine in a little skincare fridge.
So then when I apply it, it's nice and cooling on the skin.
You can use this day or night.
I like to use this during the daytime
because it has that really nice light consistency,
so it's not too-too heavy.
This also works really well if you mix your oil into it.
So if you don't wanna be putting one layer on after another,
then you can actually mix the oil into the moisturizer
for that really beautiful glowy hydrated finish.
If your skin is on the drier side,
then you may need a creamier moisturizer,
one that's a little bit more rich.
For me, I'm dehydrated,
so I don't need anything that's too-too heavy.
I do need the hydration though,
so that one works perfectly for my skin.
So the brand Ultra Violette was my gateway
Okay, so my skin is prepped.
It's nice and glowy.
Let's put some makeup on
so that you can see the finished product.
And I have no idea if that's blended in
'cause I can't see myself properly.
Let's get a mirror.
Oh my god, that's so much product. (laughs)
Cream blush, always.
And we're done, nice and glowy, really fresh.
Cute.
