  • Hi, I'm Gracie Abrams, and I'm going to walk you through my everyday skincare routine and my kind of go-to daytime glam situation.

  • I am a very puffy, puffy girl on the face when I wake up, no matter what, so I use ice every morning like this, and it's not necessarily, it's not a graceful one, but it helps me.

  • My mom would suggest putting ice behind my ears and on my wrists when I was little, because I would get anxious and nauseous.

  • I'm going to wash my face now, clear cell cleanser.

  • My skincare journey has been a very interesting one.

  • I had no problems with acne at all growing up, which was really lucky, but then the summer before I went to college, something changed, and my body got really angry, and I started breaking out horrible cystic acne.

  • It was so bad that it would hurt to sleep on.

  • The next thing that I do kind of once every couple weeks, I'm going to take this down, this face mask.

  • It's a hydrating one.

  • I got a facial like a week ago before I went upstate to work on the album, and I am a sensitive person inside and outside, and my skin started to peel.

  • This mask is really hydrating.

  • I use this face roller tool.

  • I'm going to just go over.

  • This just feels so nice.

  • When I went to college, my anxiety skyrocketed in a way that was so in my face that I couldn't really ignore anymore, and that's kind of when I got into this more.

  • This is something that I can do that feels like a tangible way to be taking care of myself.

  • It's kind of like giving your brain a little moment of rest, and sometimes small distractions like this are really nice.

  • This Pure Hydration Serum, these products are super dewy, really hydrating.

  • This feels really nice.

  • Skin is unpredictable.

  • I'm like breaking out kind of right now.

  • Acne doesn't bother me as much now as it used to.

  • I'm really okay with it.

  • I think it's cool the way that a lot of people on social media recently, I feel like, have been just showing it and making it all right.

  • The next thing I'm using right now is this thing called Age Intervention Peptide Extreme.

  • This is the moisturizer I'm using these days.

  • Most of the skincare products that I'm using right now, a lot of them are kind of really meant for adult acne, which makes me feel like I'm doing something to prevent.

  • The Tom Ford Illuminating Primer.

  • I use this as a primer before makeup, but also on a day-to-day when I could not be bothered to, I don't know, spend more than five minutes in the mirror in the morning.

  • I like to use this alone.

  • It's less than a highlighter, but more than nothing.

  • This I found recently.

  • This is the sunscreen and skin tint that I've been using.

  • It was all over TikTok.

  • I honestly have been spending so much less time on social media recently, which has been so good for my brain.

  • I am grateful that I was on it the day that I found this because this has changed my life.

  • My skin has changed a lot over the years, but hardcore because of touring.

  • It's just, you can't control it.

  • Pillowcases in hotels sometimes, that's a thing that I never thought about being potentially problematic before.

  • What's so great about having a skincare routine or just spending time with yourself in this way is that it kind of does feel like wherever you are, it's almost like a little bit of a home away from home moment.

  • Sitting backstage or on the bus and taking the 30 minutes of drinking extra water and applying brow gel makes me feel deeply at peace.

  • I was more afraid of performing live than anything else.

  • My biggest fears in the world were tsunamis and singing in front of people.

  • Before COVID, I was in rehearsals to do a tour.

  • When everyone went into lockdown, we were all quarantining, I started playing this set that I would have gone out and done, but at home.

  • The music director who I work with, who helps put on the shows, had this idea to do shows through Zoom.

  • It was this baby step of an introduction to touring.

  • By the end of those shows, I was excited and I felt more ready.

  • Thank you for attending and making me feel less insane.

  • This is my favorite lip product in the world.

  • It's the Laneige Sleeping Mask.

  • This year, we were touring for six months straight, basically.

  • The middle of those three legs of tour was with Olivia Rodrigo.

  • She and I have been friends for a minute.

  • To know that I was going to have a friend on the road made it feel like summer camp.

  • This, I was introduced to in a real way by my best friend, Ariana.

  • She was my college roommate.

  • I rub it between my hands until it's super warm and oily.

  • Then, I just put it all over.

  • It makes you look like you've been drinking a lot of water.

  • I need to do more of that, so this is a fun little cheat.

  • Another thing about this product that's so good for any of you tattoo people, this is what I use for tattoo healing.

  • Skin is done.

  • Time to help me a little more.

  • Makeup time.

  • The sunscreen that I used earlier is tinted and just helps.

  • I love the base.

  • Sometimes, I do nothing else.

  • Today, I'm doing more.

  • Check it.

  • This is the Westman Atelier Foundation Stick.

  • I put this directly on my face, mostly on the spots where there's noticeable discoloration.

  • Some of my favorite artists have had complete bare faces, I feel like, most of the time, like Fiona Apple and Joni Mitchell.

  • I have gravitated, I think, mostly just because growing up, I played really competitive soccer and was sweating all the time, so it was a very different kind of a vibe for me.

  • I think that maybe that contributed to my lack of intensity in terms of the makeup that I use.

  • That being said, I've loved Lady Gaga for so long.

  • The way that she uses makeup and has over the course of her career on carpets and shows, and that, to me, I'm like, holy shit.

  • Anytime she does anything, I kind of drop dead a little bit.

  • This is the lighter shade, and I like to use it under my eyes a little bit.

  • Again, this is more of a brightening situation.

  • I like this sometimes more than some of the other concealer products that I've tried just because it's so creamy.

  • This is the Nars Creamy Concealer.

  • I like this for acne.

  • Also, I don't remember where I learned this trick.

  • If you spot, treat, and then let it sit for a couple seconds, it dries up a bit in a good way and the coverage is a little bit more reliable.

  • This is also West Midwest LA and it's the bronzer contour.

  • I love blush so very much.

  • This, Tower 28, is an all-time favorite.

  • And then Glossier Cloud Paint, another classic.

  • I'm going to use a tiny bit of the Cloud Paint.

  • See, this happens where some of the acne that I've had really is gone and then wants to stick around.

  • This is my favorite highlighter in the history of the world.

  • It's Chanel.

  • It's really great.

  • It's like a balm.

  • I like to put it a little bit on the inner corners of my eye.

  • This is a CoverGirl eye pencil.

  • I like to use an eyelash curler.

  • This is Surratt.

  • Curling the lashes and then this.

  • And I kind of pull it out a little and then just use my finger.

  • Okay, I'm going to do lip stuff now, but I'm using just a washcloth.

  • These are the pencils that I use to get a color that makes me happy.

  • This is the Pillow Talk in Medium.

  • And then this is the Makeup Forever.

  • It's like a chocolate color.

  • I don't like it just like this.

  • I would not leave it just like this.

  • It's too pink for me.

  • This Glossier lip in the shade Trench, which is the one that I'm super into right now.

  • This is this lip balm situation and it's really good.

  • And it's on the mauve-y side.

  • I have had a brow journey.

  • When I was in middle school, I plucked like...

  • My brows basically started like here.

  • I can't believe they grew back.

  • I don't know.

  • Like someone was watching over me.

  • It's somewhat like they really grew back.

  • Brow gel is my most favorite makeup product.

  • I use the Anastasia Brow Freeze.

  • I recently read Jennifer Lawrence's Vogue cover story.

  • And she was like, I can't talk with people that aren't political anymore.

  • And I stand behind that really heavily because it's just the world is on fire.

  • There is, I think, an obligation to be starting conversations about everything that's going on.

  • Everyone all over the place.

  • Please go to abortionfunds.org.

  • Just please go.

  • And you can figure out how to get involved in your own local funds.

  • My mom, growing up, she's not a big makeup person at all.

  • But she had this compact, this Laura Mercier concealer.

  • And I think maybe a lot of the minimalism in this world is because I love my mom so much.

  • And I just now want to be like her.

  • And she does very little.

  • So I'm like, same.

  • But I'm lucky to be really close with my parents.

  • And my dad was writing wild stories all the time then and had a crazy imagination.

  • I think it gave me permission to also know that adults can be storytellers too.

  • This I love because it makes it look more intentionally messy.

  • This is called Freck.

  • I have a lot of freckles on my face.

  • I also am very pale.

  • And the pale products that I use covers my freckles.

  • So I like to use this to bring back some of the darker ones.

  • I love this one.

  • And you're getting a real up-close shot of the gap in my teeth.

  • Which, growing up, I wanted to close.

  • Because people would always ask me if I was gonna.

  • One day, I was at the mall with my dad.

  • Because we were getting a suitcase.

  • The woman who owned the store, she was like to me.

  • I was really young.

  • And I walk over to her.

  • And she goes, never close your gap.

  • It's good luck.

  • And I was like, holy shit.

  • This is my favorite fragrance of all time.

  • Someone once told me that if you spray it in your hair a little.

  • Then all day long, you'll smell good.

  • I carry with me in my bag all the time.

  • It's Santal 33.

  • It smells like the way that.

  • I feel like my childhood bedroom smelled like this.

  • This is it.

  • We're done here.

  • Thank you for hanging out with me.

  • I hope that you're happy, healthy, safe, hydrated.

  • Loving your friends and family.

  • And good to yourself.

  • I will see you soon.

  • Okay?

  • I love you.

  • Bye.

  • Mwah.
