I look like a fish gasping for air or gasping for water.

They don't gasp for air, they're underwater,

gasping for water.

(upbeat music)

I am so excited to be able to show you my skincare routine,

because I am usually used to reacting to skincare routines.

I'm not used to showing other people my skincare routine

and especially because it's switching so often,

I feel like there's no sense of normalcy,

but now I'm excited to reveal it to you guys,

because so many of you have been asking and yeah,

this is just gonna be fun, I'm looking forward to it.

Also, I hope that you can appreciate that I'm wearing a robe

because it's low key 85 degrees,

and I'm actually pretty hot, but you know what?

I wanted to stick with wearing a robe

because it's a Go To Bed With Me.

I don't get this chance every day.

You are also joined with me in my room,

not in my bathroom because my bathroom

is the size of a shoe box

and I figured that you probably don't wanna be seeing

up my nostrils my entire skincare routine,

so we're here instead.

So I may have to run in and out out to wash my face.

I'm going to be using in total one, two, three, four, five,

six, seven, eight products with one skincare tool.

So nine products all together.

I'm really excited to go through them

because these are some new goodies that I found

that I haven't shared with many people.

So, first thing I do is I use a cleansing balm,

I'm specifically using the Then I Met You

Living Cleansing Balm.

I like this one because, well,

I like cleansing balms in general

because they're a great way of just dissolving the sunscreen

and excess oil and dirt buildup that has accumulated

throughout the day off of your skin.

Cleansing oils are nice, but sometimes they can be

a little bit messy, which is why I like cleansing balms.

But typically I don't go for a lot of cleansing balms

because they have an ingredient called polyethylene,

which is plastic.

And I kind of don't want to be putting plastic on my face

and having it go down the drain.

And this one is polyethylene free,

which is why I really like it.

So I usually just take a little bit,

there's some skincare ASMR.

This stuff is like a mango smoothie on the skin.

I love applying it because it applies so smoothly

and it's formulated with a lot of rich, hydrating oils

that are really great for nourishing the skin,

which I think is awesome because the cleansing system

can usually be a little bit stripping to the skin.

And a lot of people don't realize that cleansing

can be the most damaging part of the skincare routine

if we're not careful.

And I really like that this one is formulated

with so many oils to just really soften and nourish my skin.

It does have fragrance and anyone who watches my channel

knows that I do not like fragrance,

but I'm okay with it in a wash off treatment.

So in my wash off treatments is when I get to

splurge a little bit,

because it's not gonna be on my face very long.

It's gonna be on there for like a maximum of 30 seconds

before I rinse it off.

So I'm not really gonna see any sensitivities

or risks associated with fragrance.

I make sure to get on my under eye area.

So I don't forget there and just gently work it

into the skin everywhere.

I always used to think cleansing oils and cleansing balms

were for people who wore makeup every day,

but I actually think they should be used by everyone

because sunscreen is a tricky little thing

to get off your skin.

And especially with the amount of sunscreen I wear,

which is hint a lot, a lot every single day,

I'm like anal about making sure I avoid the sun

as much as possible.

The cleansing balm is definitely smart for me.

And then after I make sure I've gotten

every part of my skin,

I just rinse it off with water and then immediately go in

with my cleanser, which I just do all in one swoop.

My favorite cleanser,

the one that I have to use all the time,

otherwise my skin freaks out is the

Youth To The People, kale and green tea spinach cleanser.

This one, I don't know why my skin gets so upset

every time I discontinue using this from my routine,

I'll try to experiment with new cleansers and my skins like,

what the heck, bro, why did you do that?

So this one is a pretty integral part of my routine.

I also really like it because I have combination

to more oily skin and being that it is summer right now

and Hawaiian, it's very humid, of course.

I tend to be really, really oily.

So I need a cleanser that's going to deeply cleanse my skin,

get everything out of my pores

to make sure that they're not clogged,

they're not gonna accumulate dead skin cells

and dirt over time.

And this one does a great job of doing that.

But my skin doesn't feel overly stripped afterwards,

which is tricky to find because some cleansers

I find work so well that afterwards, my skin is like

(gasp) gasping for water.

It's like the Sahara Desert.

Again, so I'm gonna rinse off and start applying this.

So usually I take about a full pump

and it's just gently massage it into my skin.

Last time I did this on video,

my eyes ended up burning so badly

because I'm not used to having my eyes open

while cleansing my skin

and my eyes are very, very, very sensitive.

So I'm gonna be very careful, maybe close my eyes for this.

I found that sometimes this cleanser can be

a little bit too harsh during the winter time

because during the winter my skin tends to dry out

a lot more, especially in the cheek area.

It gets really, really dry.

And anytime I travel to the mainland, whew,

my skin gets so, so, so dry.

I actually used to struggle with eczema a lot.

Thankfully I don't anymore,

being in a more humid environment, but yeah,

this cleanser really only works

for when it's particularly humid

and my skin is being extra oily.

Okay, once I feel that my skin is clean enough,

I go over to the bathroom.

I'm still not opening my eyes

and this is gonna be a struggle trying to walk to the sink

to wash my face off.

But you know, I'm gonna do my best, wish me luck.

Wow, I made it over to the bathroom with my eyes closed

and I did not spill on my shirt, cha chow.

Don't always win that battle, but today I did, I guess, woo.

Also if you notice that my skin is a little bit red,

I have reactive skin, I don't have sensitive skin.

My skin can actually handle a lot of products,

ingredients, testing, et cetera, et cetera,

but it is reactive.

If the wind blows my skin's like inflammation instantly.

Next I go in with a new step that I haven't been using

for very long, it's the Isntree Green Tea Fresh Toner.

Now, normally I'm not a big toner person,

'cause I don't really feel that they're necessary

to a skincare routine, but this product,

the first ingredient is green tea extract.

The first ingredient, and it's like super affordable

and normally products with that high of a concentration

of green tea, heck even less of a concentration of green tea

are super, super expensive.

So I was pleasantly surprised to find this.

And I also don't use a cotton pad.

I just put it in my palms and pat it into my skin.

You know, it's funny, my nighttime routine

was not always this complete.

I used to be extremely bad at doing a nighttime routine,

but once I figured out to put my nighttime skincare

right next to my bed and all have my cellar water there

to just like do my entire skincare routine

while laying down,

I slowly started getting into a nighttime skincare routine

until now, which I'm like fully addicted.

But for anyone out there who is struggling to keep up

with a consistent nighttime routine,
