if you're human real skin has texture it's only natural there's no way to completely eradicate
all the texture that's on your skin but there are things that we could do to get it as smooth
glowy and luminous as possible today we're going to be doing our own glass skin facial
to get glowing smoother and luminous skin while my skin still has room for improvement it has come
such a long way from where it first began and some of these products that i'm using in this video
are home remedies but feel free to switch it up to whatever suits your skincare needs best
the most important thing is that these products are healing
hydrating and nourishing to the skin so that it can get that shiny glass like glow
first things first we'll be starting this facial with a korean skincare staple the double cleanse
combining an oil cleanse with a gentle cleanser now the oil i'm using is a coffee infused
grapeseed oil that i made at home both coffee and grape seed oil contain anti-inflammatory and
antimicrobial properties which is perfect for my sensitive acne prone skin oil cleansing helps to
deeply cleanse dirt sebum and dislodge blackheads but the trick to getting the oil cleansing to work
is incorporating steam to properly remove the oil and dirt from your skin rather than using
a washcloth dampened cotton rounds work best for me because they aren't too hard for my skin
as you can see this is all the dirt that came off my face every time i
look at it i always feel a really weird satisfaction
Qasil powder single-handedly healed my skin in the fastest amount of time and it is my main
secret to healing breakouts and hyperpigmentation unlike traditional acne cleansers that dehydrate
the skin qasil is moisturizing and doesn't compromise your skin's protective barrier it's
antibacterial and gentle and i just love this thing so much i use this cleanser religiously
day and night and the device i'm using is the luna mini to deeply cleanse my skin
for the longest time i use like a bootleg one of amazon but shhh don't tell nobody but you could just use your
hands just make sure to cleanse for 60 seconds to give your cleanser a proper chance to work
after about 10 minutes the steam from my machine runs out this is
when i cleanse the castile face wash off and tone with more of that same aloe water i use
to create the cleanser the liquid i use to make my cleanser changes depending on my skin
but lately i've been combining it with the aloe water and the best one i found is george's aloe
because it doesn't contain any lemon which can be extremely drying and irritating for sensitive skin
it's just pure aloe that doesn't need to be refrigerated because it's steam distilled and
aloe helps to prevent trans epidermal water loss which happens when excessive dehydration and
dryness occurs incorporating aloe into your daily routine is key to having consistent glass skin
another major key for achieving glass skin is exfoliation this has really helped me
to even out my skin tone and the texture of my skin after i use this product is so
much smoother the one i'm using is by a korean skincare brand and this is the only exfoliant i
could use without it being too harsh for my sensitive skin it's a really gentle
enzyme-based formula that dissolves dead skin cells and this product only works
on dry skin you'll want to make sure that your skin isn't damp or wet before using it
i know this is gross but this is some of the dead skin that came off of my face
after exfoliating i rinse all the dead skin off at the sink
every time i use this mask the texture of my skin feels so soft and plump the ingredients are simple
but powerful don't fall asleep on it manuka honey is antibacterial and naturally contains a safe
small amount of hydrogen peroxide that is great for healing hyperpigmentation and aloe contains
salicylic acid which is a bha that loosens dead skin cells and clogged pores on top of that aloe
and manuka honey work synergistically to create deeply hydrated skin to prevent the mask from
drying out and to help the ingredients penetrate deeply i always pair it with a silicone mask cover
after about an hour i rinse off with cool water to remove any residual stickiness from the honey
so
despite misinformation you might have heard melanin is very delicate in nature and it's best
to be as gentle as possible especially if you're trying this for the first time because it can
create discoloration if it's not done properly before applying the ice run it underwater to
ensure there aren't any sharp edges you'll want to keep the ice in constant motion
and never leave the ice in direct contact with your skin for more than 10 seconds per section
i'm moving the ice relatively fast to avoid giving my skin burns from the ice
after the eyes over my entire face and neck i flip it onto the cotton round side to wipe the excess
a little tip massaging the cotton round over each eye is really soothing for tired dry eyes or even
if you experience allergies this is something that i love to do on the regular when you finish
press the water that's left on your skin and leave it slightly damp to enhance the effects
of the next step all the ingredients in this antioxidant rich vitamin c serum are designed
for targeting hyperpigmentation and texture it has gentle exfoliants like pineapple extract
malic and lactic acid plus it is combined with ceramides to rebuild and restore our
skin's protective barrier now i could give a very nerdy long drawn out answer as to why
antioxidants are great for skin health but to put it simply they protect our skin cells from damage
shea nilotica is a rare form of shea butter from the east african coast rather than traditional
shea butter that comes from the west coast it has a softer feel and more of a subtle smell
it absorbs really quickly without leaving behind a greasy feel another thing i really
like about this is that a little bit goes a long way and i mean like a third of a
pea size is enough for under both of your eyes and i noticed that
my skin has been feeling softer and much more hydrated when i started using this
because we've exfoliated our skin a lot during this facial it is vital to put on sunscreen if
you're doing this in the daytime i mean honestly all the other stuffs are pointless if you skip
this one i use a mineral zinc based sunscreen zinc is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial which makes
it an excellent skin healer and given my skincare needs it's really rare to find a sunscreen that
meets all the criteria i need for it to work for me the fact that it only has four simple
ingredients it's non-irritating and it doesn't clog my pores or leave behind an ashy cast is kind
of a miracle take time to treat your skin as if it is as precious as gold and it will transform into
its healthiest state yet this glass skin facial works well
when you are consistent and i like to carve out time about once a month to do this facial to maintain my skin's luminosity and its clarity
