- What's up you guys?
I'm Broderick Hunter and this is my go to bed with me.
And hopefully you guys enjoy it.
If you don't, it ain't my fault.
You still clicked the play button.
All right, guys, let's hop.
(relaxing music)
My skin type is very dry.
I get dehydrated a lot.
So I cater a lot of my products that I use
towards helping me hydrate throughout the day.
'Cause I'm not the type of dude
to just pull out some moisturizer and just slap it on.
Like, I can't do all that.
So I always like products
that help me last throughout the day and help me feel good.
I'm about to hop in the shower real quick
and rejuvenate myself.
I always use Ujjayi Charcoal Cleanse.
This is one of my favorite body washes.
It really does detoxify and makes me feel good.
Going to bed, you should feel good.
I don't want to take the stress of life with me to bed.
I refuse to.
So let me go destress
and I'll see you guys in short bit.
I have hopped out the shower
and I'm about to throw on some shea butter.
This is Care by Fatima.
This is real shea butter that comes straight from Africa.
This stuff literally just absorbs it into your body.
So I personally feel like
you can never have too much shea butter.
And I always really try to moisturize at nighttime
because I feel like I always get dehydrated at night.
I'm the type of person
that keeps a bottle of water by their bed.
Everybody's different.
But for me, I always brush my teeth
before I start my skincare regimen.
I always use this product called Hismile
and they make really good toothpaste
and mouthwash and stuff.
So I'm about to throw this on.
And my dentist recommended me this little Oral-B toothbrush.
She said, Brod, you gotta make sure
you're using a toothbrush that gets above the plaque
and all this stuff.
And I'm all like, look, I didn't ask for life lessons, lady.
I just came to get my teeth cleaned.
So she recommended this tooth brush.
I like it.
And I'm about to just brush my teeth real quick.
(toothbrush buzzing)
This is a very good mouthwash, also from Hismile.
And this has been a game changer for me
because it's really, really good.
Wait a second.
Okay, mouth is fresh.
Now I can start on my skincare routine.
Me and skincare have a very love-hate relationship.
I get a lot of compliments on my skin and stuff,
but listen, I hate skincare with a passion.
You know why?
Because it's always so difficult
trying to figure out what works for you.
It's like life and relationship.
You just be trial and error all the time.
You don't even know if things don't work out.
It might be good for three months,
but then that month four hits
and the whole thing goes to crap.
I hate it.
So it took me a while to really understand
how I can get my skin on point.
And I thank God for my estheticians
that have been helping me and blessing me
away through with these facials and these products.
So the things I'm about to show you guys work for me,
but by all means, try them, but do not quote me
when I say that sometimes it just don't work out.
I'm one of those guys that thoroughly enjoys a good mask.
And this one is from Lab Series.
This is the Urban Blue Detox Clay Mask and it's blue.
And it makes me feel blue.
Remember that song?
♪ I'm blue ♪
♪ Da ba dee da ba daa ♪
As of recent, I've been having to train a lot
because I've been preparing for a role.
So I have to really try my best to keep my skin on point.
And this mask has done wonders for my skin.
My mask is starting to harden and stuff.
I'm about to wash this thing off real quick.
This is actually the best part
'cause I always feel like I have a new face
every time I take this thing off.
And it just feels good.
My esthetician, Finya,
put me on to her product, Guidance to Glow,
and I have loved it ever since.
So I use about a quarter size portion.
And then what I do is I lather it up.
(soap squishing)
Get it nice and sudsy.
One thing I also do is I like to get in my beard and stuff
because a lot of guys don't realize
that just because you have a beard,
there's still skin under there that needs maintenance
and it needs attention.
So give it that.
So I always make sure I get under my beard, in my beard,
around the lip line, all that good stuff.
Pat dry.
We're already feeling poreless.
If somebody asks, where are your pores?
Say, you don't know her.
I never met her.
Don't identify with her.
Now I'm gonna throw in some moisturizer.
This is also from Guidance to Glow
and that would really be it for the skincare, my friends.
And this moisturizer extremely light and it absorbs well.
Also has a nice scent to it.
So as for my hair, I've really fallen in love
with this brand called Scotch Porter.
And this is the hair serum that I'm gonna be using today.
I've used this for quite some time
and I don't plan on retiring it ever
because not only does it smell good,
but it also really does absorb well into my hair texture
because I have a lot of hair on my head.
This stuff grows like a weed.
After I tried the hair serum,
I had to explore the other products.
So I asked them to send me the beard balm.
And this right here is the best beard balm I have used.
As soon as I started using this beard balm,
I started not only seeing my sheen change,
but also my beard growth, mustache, all this.
And again, it smells very good,
so good for a little nighttime conditioning.
And for my last and final step,
I'm a firm believer in protecting your edges.
So we throw on the bonnet.
This helps keep my hair nice and moisturized
throughout the night.
Do you know how many times
I've actually gone downstairs to go pick up my Uber eats
at the wee hours of the morning in a bonnet like this?
Imagine a Black man just coming up like,
hey bro, thanks for the McDonald's.
I'm out.
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, this is,
or was my nighttime go-to-bedroom routine.
And this will conclude our little night cap.
Get it?
Nightcap.
Anyway, the beauty to self-care is knowing self.
Love yourself, know yourself, take care of yourself,
and you'll be okay.
