- [Kaia] Hey, I'm Kaia Gerber.
And today I'm gonna walk you
through my everyday skincare routine and makeup look.
First step, Youth to the People, super food cleanser.
I need to tie my hair back
have my little Celine scrunchie that I love.
So I just kind of gently massage this into my face.
I use this morning and night, but if I have makeup
on or I've had a long day or sunscreen or something
I use first like a balm to take off my makeup.
And then I'll kind of go in with this.
I've always had kind of like medium skin.
I feel like everyone goes through stages growing
up that you have sort of hormonal acne
and um that can really affect your confidence.
It definitely affected mine, especially cause I was working.
So like not only did I have to go to school with a zit
but I also had to go and do shows sometimes with bad skin
but I'm really appreciative
of this time kind of the year that I've had off.
Cause I've been able to sort of evolve
with my skincare routine
and figure out a more updated version.
So that's what you're seeing now.
So next up is this toner.
I really like Paula's choice.
I used to be very into exfoliating
and I would scrub my face like crazy.
And I have learned now
that you can exfoliate gently with toners.
So that's what I do now.
And then just kind of rub it mostly on my T-zone area
or the places that I tend to break out.
I have really sensitive skin I always have.
So I find during fashion month or times when
my skin is going through a lot, it breaks out really easily.
So that kind of forced me to have a skincare routine
that I could rely on because a lot of the time
you can't control what's going on your face.
This I swear by is niacinamide.
It is one of my favorite ingredients of all time.
It has saved my skin.
So I just put couple of drops.
In the winter, I get red here and here.
I find niacinamide has really helped with that texture, so.
I'm a big fan.
Now, this, I love it's just an eye repair oil.
So I just kind of roll this on underneath my eyes
And just gently rub it in.
I am not someone who can hide being tired.
You will know upon seeing me
whether I've slept or not immediately, I can't fake it.
So I've really had to learn how to take care
of my under eyes, which I didn't think was
something I would have to do very young.
But I, in fact, do.
My mom has always taken such good care of her skin.
And so I kind of picked up things from her.
So she's always just been very conscious
of what she's putting on her skin.
And
one of the things she taught me is
to handle your decolletage.
And don't forget about your chest, especially
with sunscreen.
I try to bring products sort of down
and then that way you're not wasting them either.
I feel like skincare is one form of meditation for me.
Like I know I have that 20 minutes in the morning
and night that I'm just doing something for myself.
So I find that to be very relaxing.
I've also like I meditate a lot.
I love crystals.
I'm very into crystals, which you will see.
I activate my crystals and I put them out on full moons
and also in the sunshine.
So I do that also with my face rollers that are crystal.
I like to activate those as well.
Now that my face kind of has some oil on it.
I like to go in with one of these guys
and this is also charged.
So, you know me, you know, all of my crystals are charged
even my face ones.
So this is charged and I just sort of use this under my eyes
to de-puff.
I used to think that face rolling was such a joke.
I was like, God's probably looking down at his creation.
He's like, why are people rubbing things on their face?
But
now look at me.
So, I really do notice a difference.
And this also is something I developed having
early mornings.
Like my face takes a long time to wake up.
My face, wakes up three hours after me.
So this is something that kind of helps get
the blood flowing in the morning.
And it's just so fun.
Like
Of course I want a face massage in the morning.
I'd have every face massage device,
if I could.
It's also funny.
Cause like even my dad now,
like I had so many different rollers
and they all started going missing
and I found out that it was my dad who was stealing them.
So this is not exclusive to women.
I think everyone should roll their face.
And then I go in, with a second roller.
Crazy.
It feels so good.
And I also keep these in the fridge.
So when I use them in the morning, they're nice and cold.
It's also just like little practices
like this that are good for your mental health.
And the fact that I'm taking time to like, you know
probably no one will know that I did this except for me.
But those are sometimes the best little practices
that we have.
I found I would get really lonely and hotel rooms.
And I started working at a really young age.
So, having things like routines that I could bring
with me around the world made me feel a lot more
comfortable and safe.
So that's why I developed a skincare routine
because it was something familiar
that I would do every night when I got home.
Like no matter the day I had no matter the work that I had.
I know that I had this sort of an
and that's kind of what prompted me to start taking care
or better care of my skin.
Now that we are rolled,
woken up
we are going to moisturize.
My favorite moisturizer
same brand as my cleanser, Youth to the People.
So I take just a little bit.
And I do a little doop, doop.
Last step on the face is sunscreen.
Because even if you're not outside, it's just important
to wear sunscreen every day.
You don't want to age faster than you need to.
Another thing I learned from my mom.
Sunscreen here, sunscreen here.
Every single day, even when it's cloudy.
And I grew up in Malibu.
So the sun is pretty much always shining.
You can still get tan, but protect the face.
And it's funny because the one thing I get
from makeup artists the most is that my face is
10 shades lighter than my body.
And they never know what makeup to put on my face because
as you can see
my body's a lot darker than my face that's cause I'm
Wearing my sunscreen.
Now, another product that I love is this lip sleeping mask
and I use it all day.
So I love it.
It makes my lips feel so moisturized.
Before I do makeup,
this is something I picked up
from makeup artists is they're always spraying stuff
on my face.
And I was like, what are you spraying on my face?
And it is this Caudalie face spray.
So eau de beauty.
So I'm gonna give myself a little spritz
with this.
Reminds me of being back in the makeup chair.
So that was skincare.
Now we can move on to makeup.
I'm going to take my hair down and let's get going.
So first step, this YSL beauty touche eclat.
This one's really light, which I like.
I never ever wear heavy foundation.
I rarely even wear foundation.
It's just like a really light tint
that kind of evens out your skin tone.
So I kind of go like this and just put it really
minimally where I need it.
I was more of a tomboy.
So I was never, I didn't start wearing makeup until I was
in high school, probably.
I'm really grateful to my mom because
she let me make some crazy makeup mistakes.
I look back and I'm like, how did you let me
leave the house?
But I'm also very grateful to her for that
because I think that's kind of how my style has developed
is from making those mistakes.
The blue eyeshadow moment I used to have was
I had, like that was like my first piece of makeup
that I owned was this little eye palette
that had a deep blue and a baby blue.
And I would just
go crazy with it.
I don't own it anymore, but I do miss it.
My makeup idol
was Green Day.
I would dress as Billy Jo
every single day to go to school.
And that's sort of how I learned to do eyeliner.
As I would do the black eyeliner that he wears.
That makeup tutorial will come next.
Okay. Now that we have our base on,
I'm going to go in with concealer.
So this again is the touche eclat high cover
from YSL beauty.
I like to use my fingers as my brushes because
it warms the product up in your hand, I feel like.
And it just ends up blending more naturally.
So you can see I'm kind of like slapping my face
but that's just how I prefer to do my makeup instead
of using like a beauty blender or something.
Now that we have concealer, I'm going to go in
and do a lighter concealer on my under eyes.
Again, warm it up, in my fingers.
And just sort of press that on.
The skin under your eyes is genetic to a certain extent.
My mom has eye bags.
So, you know, people would be like, oh sweetie
you look so tired.
And I'll be like, I was just on vacation.
And so I've learned to love them.
I don't like to cover them too much
because I do think they're cool.
And they give you like a Kurt Cobain vibe.
And even if you had like 12 hours of sleep
you still look a little bit cool.
Like who knows what she did last night.
Now I'm going to go in
and brush my eyebrows because I can't focus
on anything until my eyebrows are brushed.
I like having bushy eyebrows.
There was a stage that I went
through that I think every girl went through
of like waxing them and trying to shape them.
Thankfully, that was short-lived for me.
And now I keep them really natural.
I'll go in and tweeze a little bit.
My eyebrows have been through a lot.
There was one season when they were bleached probably
seven times in one month, which is not good for anything.
It's also really hard to get your natural eyebrow color back
after bleaching them.
So there'd be days when I would do shows where
they'd like bleach them for the morning show
dye them back for the middle
like afternoon show and then bleach them again at night.
And I could see my eyebrow hair falling out
and growing back in weird.
And then they'd try to dye them back
and we would be like green or orange.
So I've had every single color eyebrow.
These are now my completely natural grown in brows
because they haven't been bleached in a long time.
They have definitely messed with my eyebrows quite a bit.
And fortunately these bad boys are still on my face.
So I love blush.
I love the nineties trend and I guess it's kind
of like backend sort of E-girl, TikTok trend
of doing blush on your nose to make you look a
little sunburn because we're not getting sunburned
because we don't want wrinkles.
So we're going to fake it.
So
I use what I would normally use on my lips.
I just sort of take a little bit and put it on my cheeks.
I also like using a cream blush.
I just think it blends a lot better.
It looks a lot more natural and you can layer it.
So I put blush on the apples of my cheeks.
I like to bring it up kind of where you put
highlighter.
So I bring that up
and then I bring it
onto my nose and sort of
around the bridge where your sunburn would be.
Yeah. And then we might do a little bit
on the tip of the nose.
See, it looks like I've been in the sun and I haven't.
And I will also take a tiny bit
of this and put it just on my eyelid.
Now I'm going to go in with a little bit of powder.
I don't want to take the shine down too much.
I'm kind of just in the T zone
Little on the chin and a little on the forehead.
I'm someone who's like very scared to try new looks.
I keep it like very natural as you can see, but you know
being a model, in the past, like I've gotten to
have these really sort of extravagant makeup looks.
I remember a Prada show where like we have like
totally bleached eyebrows.
And there was a Valentino show where we also
had bleached eyebrows and these Swarovski crystals
all over our eyes and it took like four hours
to do the makeup, but it just looks so amazing.
And you really see art come to live on your face.
Like you get to be a human canvas for these artists.
And it's been one of the greatest privileges.
Now we're going to do a little bit of eyeshadow.
So this is sort of
like a beige-y
with a little bit of sparkle.
But again
I'm not someone who wants to have too much going on.
So this is like a very natural sort of
When I was in high school, I would like,
[imitates popping sound]
and I think I liked that.
Like, it was a fun time to experiment with makeup.
And now because my job involves experimenting with makeup
I kind of tend to
tone it down when it comes to me doing it myself.
Now we're going to curl the eyelashes.
I have very long eyelashes.
I have really long eyelashes.
It's really been great because I've never had to
sort of wear fake eyelashes or I know people get extensions.
So I just like to curl them.
So I really try to make sure that my outer lashes get
into those curl up because otherwise I have some
that grow down.
And I've actually had makeup artists asked me
to cut my eyelashes before
and I have done it.
The things we do for fashion.
Really quickly,
a quick appearance.
This is my assistant makeup artist.
She's sleeping on the job.
Puppy kisses are really a good product for your skin, so.
[kisses dog]
Oh my God, there's another, wait!
Say, hi!
I get distracted in the middle of doing my makeup
and my skincare. As you can see.
Now that the eyelashes are curled
I'm going to go with some mascara
just at my root.
And at the outer corner.
I'm going to do a tiny bit of eyeliner in my outer corner.
Just to kind of open my eyes a bit more.
I'm going to go in
and just add a teeny tiny, bit kind of following
Sort of following where that last lash has gone.
Now, I kind of want to blend this
out a little bit and I'll kind of bring the excess down.
Under my eye.
I'm going to use a little bit of highlighter.
See I naturally leave the shine.
Cause I feel like that way you don't need as much.
Again, I just like to use
a tiny, tiny bit on my hand like this
I'm going to use
just a few dots where we put that blush before
a little on the bridge of the nose,
a little bit on the Cupid's bow
and our corners
and brow bone.
So I just follow anywhere that the light hits
and just kind of accentuate
so that the light bounces off of those.
So I'm going to use the same blush color
and just kind of
dab it onto my lips.
I like it to look more like a stain rather than
an intentional lipstick.
This is where I've come to with my natural makeup.
We're going to do hair.
I finally have hair
after two years of having very short hair.
It's grown out and that's very exciting for me
but I also have had to learn how to take care of it.
Leave-in conditioner.
I love this brand Sachajuan.
I'm just going to spray some of this leave-in
into my ends which tend to go a little bit dry.
This is how air-dries.
So it kind of just like, can even give it one of those.
And
there you go.
We're going to do a little spritz of Daisy.
Shake it off.
This is the final look.
Thank you so much for watching.
