Hi, NET-A-PORTER. I am Tata Harper and today I’m gonna show you how I get my
super-fresh, dewy skin routine for the weekend.
And we’re gonna do the whole routine together.
So… let’s go!
So guys, here’s how I begin my routine.
So first, we’re gonna cleanse – because there’s no point of doing anything without cleansing the skin.
And my cleanser of choice is the Nourishing Oil Cleanser.
Yeah, it’s an oil – and a lot of people are freaked out by oil cleansers.
But the reality is that oil cleansers are good for everybody.
It doesn’t matter if you are oily, if you have blemish-prone skin,
oil cleansers are really incredible because they basically keep your skin super-hydrated while cleansing.
It removes dirt and any big particles of, like, pigment, any makeup, SPF…
So I love putting it all over my skin – and also, this cleanser smells so nice.
And, as you guys can see, I’m also putting it on my skin dry… and around my eyes on dry skin…
and on my neck,
because people always complain about the neck, but not everybody… people don’t cleanse their neck.
and it’s so important to cleanse the neck just like you cleanse your face.
So, there, you put it on and, basically, you can either remove it with water,
in your sink, and it emulsifies into a milk, so you don’t have any oil residue
and, you know, your skin is drinking up all of the vitamins and minerals…
Or, if you have a lot of makeup, you can take a little towel and just really go for it – and take it all off.
And it removes any makeup, any dirt, any residue. It also softens your skin.
I think it’s just like the perfect cleanser for dewy skin.
OK, so now that the skin is completely clean and dewy, as you guys can see,
next step is the Hydrating Floral Mask.
This mask… it’s a major skin plumper, because,
we don’t realize it, but the skin gets dehydrated (many layers of the skin get dehydrated).
And this basically will help you with dehydrated skin.
Dehydrated skin is sometimes the root cause of so many signs of aging,
and you get all of the little fine lines, the wrinkles.
So, this mask will definitely plump up, like, that moisture cushion.
So, it’s like a thick gel and I love using, like, a little brush to apply it.
And you want to do a really thick layer – all over the skin.
And this mask is really concentrated – it has about a thousand molecular sizes of hyaluronic acid
yeah, a thousand!
It doesn’t have just one, you know, one type of hyaluronic acid,
it has many different types of hyaluronic acid because it has hyaluronic acid at different molecular sizes.
So this means that the smaller molecules go to the deepest layer of the skin and help plump up, like, that layer.
And then, as you go up in molecular sizes of hyaluronic acid, you’re basically plumping up the upper layers of the skin.
So, that’s how you get, like, a complete moisture-cushion ‘plump-up’… with this mask.
Which is the main add – I think it’s the main benefit.
You also see some redness reduction, which is really amazing.
But you’re gonna see how the skin gets really dewy… and it looks refreshed.
I also love adding a little bit of this mask to the upper, like, right here – the upper lid…
Right here, on the lower lid…
And then, the neck. Which, you guys are gonna see, I apply everything on my neck.
I feel like there’s nothing worse than a dry neck,
and we all forget about our necks. So, here’s just like a reminder.
So there. So, I leave it on as like a thick layer
and I leave it on, like, for, let’s say, 10/15 minutes.
Sometimes, I actually love sleeping with this mask on the skin.
And when you’re gonna do that, you go for a lighter layer,
not a thick layer like what I have on now
and you can have, like, your beauty sleep with the mask.
But, if you’re just gonna leave it on for 10/15 minutes,
what I recommend is that you just don’t go to the sink and splash your face with water
and remove the whole mask off the skin.
You do want to leave a little bit behind. So I just love,
just kind of, like, watering the tip of my fingers…
and then you create this milk…
and you create this milk all over your skin
all the different places where you put the mask on…
you wanna emulsify it…
like this.
And then, what you do is you take a towel, and you pat it dry.
That way, you leave the hyaluronic-acid molecules behind.
It’s not a complete removal of the mask…
you leave them acting, just really doing up the skin further…
and staying on the skin.
So…
This is the effect of the mask. I have dry skin so this mask is a must for me.
I do it, like, once or twice a week, minimum.
OK, so, we’ve done a lot of steps that are about washing off, removing from the skin…
Now we are going to go to the part of the routine that is… the products that stay on the skin – and you don’t wash off.
So, first thing is my beloved Elixir Vitae serum.
This is my desert-island product… like, I don’t go anywhere without this serum.
And… this is also our most potent serum, guys.
It’s like you’re gonna see everything I use here is the most potent…
but this, in terms of anti-aging, is the most potent.
And it has a total of 72 active ingredients, so it’s, as you guys can see, it’s really up there.
And it’s a real multi-tasker.
It also has the latest in anti-aging technology
to do similar things as you get from injectables,
so this is kind of like a daily dose of injectables.
And a lot of my clients that do injectables basically love using this serum
because you’re reinforcing those effects daily and then, as a result of that,
you end up needing injectables less often.
And if you don’t do injectables, then this is a great way of getting the effects, but topically.
This helps smooth out wrinkles, it also helps ‘redensify' your skin, meaning, make your skin a little thicker…
helps volumize your skin… has tons of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, omegas, amino acids…
So this serum really does it all. And you definitely want to apply it in your neck.
There...
My skin is starting to feel, like, very hydrated right now! *laughs*
And then, we are going to go into the eye area, which is another place
where I feel a lot of people don’t pay attention to is your eyes,
I ask a lot of people, “Do you use eye products?” – and a lot of people are like,
“No… that’s one thing that I don’t do.”
But I highly recommend that you do eye products because
eye formulas have a lot of ingredients that you don’t find in moisturizers,
in serums, and in other treatment products. Because, around the eye area,
of course, you want to treat wrinkles and signs of aging, but also around your eye area,
you have things that are specific to the eye.
You have, like, lack of proper blood flow, so you get a lot of, like,
dark shadows under the eyes.
Also, around the eye area, you get a lot of, like, stagnant, kind of, like, fluids… and fat,
that needs to be broken down. So, that’s what you… that’s why you buy eye products,
specifically this one, which is the Boosted Contouring Eye Balm.
Again, super-rich… It’s a balm for your eye.
And it’s a balm that has a specific technology for energizing the tissue.
So, it’s a new technology to really help lift and firm.
And when I use it, I put a little bit on my fingers, and I wanna melt it in between my fingers before I put it on…
And when I put it on, I typically like doing it with just one finger.
So what you wanna do is that you spread it all around the eye…
And eye creams are more than just, you know, applying it here.
And, like, you really wanna go here…
You also wanna go in the upper lid…
You wanna go here, in between your eyebrows…
And I even take it down to my lips
because the skin of the lip is also, like, really thin.
And it’s very similar to the skin around your eyes, so it benefits a lot from, you know, eye creams.
Also, I love massaging the eye area, again with the finger.
Just do a little bit of pressure and you go, like, five times in one direction…
And then you wanna go five times in the opposite direction.
This opposite direction really targets more of, like, that bag that accumulates, like, right here
that I unfortunately inherited from my family.
So I love kind of like massaging up and outward
It’s super-rich and moisturizing – and it also has a lot of ingredients that
help break down a lot of, like, the fatty deposits that I was talking about.
So, there, that’s the eye… And then, the last step
of this super-dewy routine is Crème Riche.
This is a perfect, also, night cream.
It contains a lot of different types of lavender extract,
which help relax you for the night-time. And it comes with this little spoon,
and I actually recommend that when you are going to use it, to use this little spoon,
so it gives you the perfect dosage…
a little bit like this.
I put it in my hand, and, before I put it on my face
I like to foam it up on my hand, and kind of like activate a lot of, like, the sugar carbohydrates
and all of the powerful anti-aging ingredients that are here, too.
And, once I have created a foam, then I spread the foam all over the skin.
It’s a really intense moisturizer.
And, again, you put it everywhere. And it also feels like dessert on your skin,
and it contains a lot of different actives. This has like 40-plus actives.
It has a lot of, like, sugar technology that helps stimulate elastins specifically.
it also contains a lot of, like, sugar carbohydrates that are all about binding water into the skin.
It also has a lot of peptides, from avocado, that basically strengthen and fortify the skin.
And, also, it has this great texture that you can massage your skin with it on.
And again, the neck.
Everywhere in the neck.
And you wanna give yourself, like, a little quick massage when you have it on.
Like here, on the forehead…
here on the jaw.
And there. Now I feel really dewy, really hydrated,
and you get kinda, like, this refreshed look.
I hope that you can try it at home, for yourself, and get the same, like,refreshed weekend glow.
And, uh, thank you so much for tuning in.
