- Hi, I'm Alexandra Daddario
and I'm gonna be showing you my nighttime routine.
Are you ready to go to bed with me?
(upbeat music)
So I'm gonna be using seven products to get ready, which
seems excessive, but is actually
less than I use in the morning.
So first, I have a lot of makeup on
because I had a press junket today,
but that's not my typical routine.
I normally just sort of throw on maybe a little mascara
and I do my brows and I don't really mess with my hair much
when I'm just living my normal life and not working.
But tonight, because I have so much makeup on,
I'm going to show you how I take my makeup off.
So first, I'm gonna put my hair back,
obviously.
And then we start the process of taking off makeup,
some of which is waterproof,
some of which is, you know, tough to get off
because there's a lot of layers of foundation on my skin
and I have got a lot of eye makeup on.
I'm gonna use this makeup melt away
cleansing cream from Farmacy
and this is what it looks like.
It's kind of like thick, but it's very good for your skin.
And it helps get all this makeup,
this first layer of makeup.
All you do is you rub it
all over your skin and I do my eyes too.
And this really helps just start to get everything moving
so it's not just stuck on your face.
And you could see it all coming off.
And I find that with waterproof mascara,
which is what I have on right now,
I need to use something tougher.
Like this is not going to cut it.
After I rinse my skin off,
and after I've dried it,
I need a, something that's gonna get the waterproof stuff
around my eyes off and this will help get makeup off safely.
So you can put this on a,
a pad or even anything that is gentle for your skin.
Sometimes when I'm on the road,
I don't have everything with me.
So you can just use a tissue or something that works for you
and you just wipe it here.
And then I rinse that off.
(water running)
The next step is a cleanser.
So Caudalie makes a really great,
beautiful foaming cleanser.
And I use this one.
And I think this is so important
to take your makeup off after a long day.
It can be really hard to remember sometimes
or it can be hard to, like, do all the steps that you need
and just be like, "Okay, I'll just wash it and turn off,"
but it really stays in your skin.
So I really try to do a multi-step process
to getting everything off.
You don't want to sleep with that in your pores.
So then I'm gonna wash this off.
So now that my skin is a lot cleaner,
I feel good about putting a product on.
I don't like to spend too much time at night.
'Cause sometimes it's after such a long day
or whatever the case may be and you just want to get to bed
and just want to relax.
So once I get my makeup off,
I usually save masks or anything like that
for during the day when I have time.
This is SkinCeuticals Glycollic 10 Renew Overnight.
It tingles a little bit when you put it on your skin,
but I love it because I get like colic facials,
where they do this great mask
and my skin is always so glowing after I get these facials.
But that's only once a month
so this is sort of in the interim.
It helps just increase cell turnover and
all kinds of stuff
so that you wake up with, like, brighter skin.
So you take a little bit of that.
And I just put that all over my skin.
And it burns just a little bit,
but then it goes away.
Wash my hands off.
And then,
I put on
vitamin C serum.
This one is Truskin.
It has vitamin C and hyaluronic acid. And I love it.
Vitamin C is very good for your skin.
So I put that on top of it.
And this just keeps your skin healthy, keeps it moisturized.
And I usually always do on my neck as well.
'Cause we're supposed to do
everything that we do in our face to our neck.
And this is my holy grail of skin products.
I am completely obsessed with this next product.
It's called Vintner's Daughter.
If I had to take a product to a desert island
and only use one for the rest of time, this one would be it.
It's an oil.
I actually started using it
when I was breaking out really badly.
Strangely enough, despite the fact that it's an oil,
it's the only thing that works for me.
It...
You can read the testimonials online.
It really, really works and it's all natural
and it's really a beautiful product.
So I just put a little bit like this.
And according to the instructions,
you rub it in your hands for a few seconds
and then you just pat it on your skin.
I don't work with them.
They don't pay me.
I'm just very, very obsessed with it
because it really, really works.
And I don't know how it works,
but it helps keep my skin clear and healthy.
And if I had to use one product for the rest of the time,
that would be it.
The next step is I always use an eye cream.
This one is from Fresh,
Black Tea Eye Concentrate.
Age delay, anti-aging is an effect.
This is just a really great eye cream.
It's thick, but it helps...
It helps moisturize in a really gentle way.
So I just sort of dab it on.
You're supposed to use this finger.
It's apparently the softest. It's the one you use the least.
This is a moisturizer I use and I have a bunch
and I love this one.
It's also from Farmacy, Honey Halo. It's really thick.
They describe it on the container as being ultra hydrating.
It's a ceramide moisturizer.
So ceramides are very moisturizing.
And it's just a really thick,
really great thing for the evening.
So I use this.
Again, I put it on my neck,
on my face.
And then I can also moisturize my hands with what's left.
The key here is getting as much makeup off your skin
as quickly as possible.
It makes such a huge difference.
I learned that from my mom and my friends.
You just, you may admit the mistake once
of falling asleep with your makeup on
and you know that you just feel...
It doesn't make you feel good in the morning.
It feels so good to wake up and know
that you're not gonna have mascara all over your face.
It just makes you feel better
and it's a better way to start the day.
So part of the routine is just about
how am I gonna start my day tomorrow
and how am I gonna feel good?
I think that's really important
and that's something I've been doing since I was young.
And that's it. That's my nighttime skincare routine.
Thank you guys so much for watching.
Good luck getting all your makeup off.
