Hey guys, today it's just me
0:02
because today we're gonna be talking about something that you guys always wanted me to talk about
0:08
my morning skincare routine. ♪ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey ��
0:19
Before you start any skincare routine, it's very important to know what kind of skin you actually have
0:27
And it could be tricky for women, because sometimes it changes throughout the years
0:32
Right now, I have a mixture of dry and oily skin. I know it's weird
0:40
In the summer, it gets really oily. Of course, in the winter
0:45
that's when it gets a little bit dry, and I actually have a little bit of eczema
0:51
My facialist, Shani Darden, who I absolutely love, she's the one who discovered it
0:56
Growing up, I just thought they were just like, you know, weird dry areas
1:01
She was like, Tamera, you actually have eczema, so it's really important that you start taking care of that
1:06
If you know me, you know that I love just trying different products
1:13
Throughout my life, I have tried so many different things, and it's okay to try, because your skin will tell you
1:19
if it likes it or not. First thing I use is the IS Clinical
1:25
or I-S Clinical Facial Wash. I love this, because it literally gets
1:33
all the makeup off your face, as you guys know, I do movies
1:38
I'm also in the daytime talk show, The Real, so I can wear a lot of makeup
1:43
It's really important that you get all of that stuff off. However, I wanted to keep on a little bit of my mascara
1:53
that I have on my eyes, because I know you guys have gone through this as well
1:58
where you're tired at night, make sure you do wash your face, by the way
2:02
but you don't get all of your makeup off, especially around the eyes
2:06
So, I discovered that coconut oil is the best thing for that
2:13
after you've washed your face with the IS Clinical. So you just do this, right
2:19
It's so soft and smooth, I can't see! Ah! And then, just kind of like in one swipe
2:29
it gets away the extra residue of the eye makeup. And I like using coconut oil
2:37
because you know, it's organic, it's clean, so make sure you buy an organic and clean one
2:42
Well, I think organic and clean are kind of like, buy organic, then it's gonna be clean
2:48
Speaking of coconut oil, tell me in the comments below how you use your coconut oil
2:55
Look how easy that was! And then you've got a nice little glow
3:00
around your eyes. I do go back and forth between some products
3:06
Shani Darden, as I mentioned, is my facialist. I love her! I love you, Shani
3:15
Anyways, she's killing it in the facialist game, in the facial game, as I say
3:20
She has her own line, it's called Shani Darden, and I use some of her products
3:26
One product is the Daily Cleansing Serum. This feels like butter when you put it on your face
3:34
It's awesome, and it gets rid of a lot of makeup as well
3:38
Next is the IS Clinical, or IS Clinical, Vitamin C Serum. It's the ProHeal Serum Advanced
3:47
This is my secret, and I'm telling you guys this, okay? That's how much I love you
3:53
I am in love, like, this thing is my boyfriend. There are tons of vitamin C serums out there
4:02
and they are great because they help give your skin that extra glow, and at the same time
4:08
they help get rid of fine lines and wrinkles, like my neck
4:13
This is 41, people. And I feel like if I start now, by the time I'm 60
4:19
people will be like, how old are you? And I'll be like, who, me? 20
4:25
So all you have to do is just put one or two drops
4:31
in your palm, I'll just put three. Because they always like to look supple, glowy, and dewy
4:41
You can also concentrate it underneath your eyes. This is great for puffy under eyes
4:47
or dark circles under the eyes. You kind of like just naturally massage it in there
4:53
Oh, this feels so good. We can't forget about the neck. Oh, Lord, yes, the neck
5:01
All right, see how glowy and dewy that looks? Next, we're gonna use the Dr. Enigma Serum One
5:07
I feel like you can never use enough serums because they always give you that glowy, dewy look
5:12
This one, in particular, helps plump your skin and hydrates your skin, so it never really looks dry
5:20
As you can see, I'm going light to heavy with my products
5:27
This serum is just a little bit heavier than the vitamin C serum
5:31
And this serum, you can also use day and night. Now, I just wanna give you guys a heads up
5:38
This one is a huge splurge for me. I think sometimes it's okay to treat yourself
5:43
before you wreck yourself. This one is a lot different than the vitamin C one
5:47
because it has plant stem cells. So it's gonna keep your skin very plump and hydrated
5:56
You use one or two drops of these because it's so expensive
6:01
I'm just gonna use one or two. We wanna keep this for a long time
6:08
This one smells so yummy. Look at that skin, look at that
6:14
I don't even need foundation. And that's what a lot of people say. They're like, Tamara, do you have Megapod
6:21
And I'm like, nope. As you guys know, this product has plant cells in it
6:26
Are there any other products that you guys use that have special ingredients that has helped your skin
6:32
I wanna know, just comment below. Next is a moisturizer. This is Shadi's Daily Oil-Free Moisturizer
6:42
As I stated before, my skin sometimes can feel a little bit too oily
6:48
And when you are putting a lot of serums on your face
6:53
you probably don't wanna put too much oil or moisture on your face
6:58
because then you're just doing too much. You're overlaying too many products on your face
7:03
So you want it to be light. And Shani Darden's moisturizer is oil-free
7:09
which I absolutely love. So you're not gonna get these extra blemishes
7:13
This product right here is very, very, very important. I'm just gonna put it out there
7:22
When I was growing up, I thought because I was a woman
7:25
of color, I didn't have to use sunblock because I thought I'm not gonna burn
7:30
The sun loves me. Wrong! As you get older, it doesn't matter how dark you are
7:39
You still can get those little sunspots and you can still damage your skin from the sun
7:44
So it's really, really, really important that you use sunscreen. It doesn't matter how young you start
7:50
My daughter is wearing sunscreen right now. So realize, if you start with the best skincare
7:57
when you're younger, just imagine how you're gonna look when you're older
8:01
You don't have to wait until you are 40, 50, 60 to start an amazing skincare routine
8:08
Start now and wear your sunblock. Please. This is Super Goop Play
8:15
The SPF is 50. My dermatologist does not play around with sunscreen
8:21
It's important to wear this every single day. This one is an oil-free sunscreen
8:29
They have those. It depends on how much moisture you have in your skin
8:34
You can buy that accordingly. So just make sure that you look on the labels
8:39
This has sunflower extract in it and I like it because it's light
8:47
It's not heavy. Well, it's heavier than all of these products but it's a very light sunscreen
8:57
It doesn't clog my pores. I'm clogged. That is clog and pores together
9:04
Okay, I made a new word. It doesn't clog my pores. So it feels great
9:10
So even if you wanted to add makeup on top of this, it's gonna be fine
9:14
Your skin isn't gonna feel like it can't breathe. Now, I just learned something from Miss Jeannie Mai
9:22
one of my co-hosts of The Real. You guys, I forgot for years to put sunscreen on my neck
9:29
She told me that it's very, very important. Don't forget about this area, ladies
9:35
Don't wait until you're like 60 to say, oh, my neck. I've neglected my neck
9:43
So now, my husband, he always plays with me. He always jokes with me because I'm always like
9:50
always go up, ladies, up and out. Up and out like this, okay
9:59
Like this. Because once you hit a certain age, everything starts to like
10:04
even your tattas. Okay, we've talked about what I do on the outside
10:09
for my daily skincare morning routine. I do think it's important to talk about
10:15
what we put on our inside that can affect our skin. I know y'all are not gonna wanna hear this
10:22
but it's diet, diet, diet, diet. I'll say it one more time. Diet
10:29
It's huge. Diet! It's huge. I learned this the hard way. When I eat burgers, fries, lots of sugar
10:38
lots of ice cream, tons of dairy, it all shows up on my face
10:45
It's like, alcohol. Alcohol, alcohol. And you guys know I love wine
10:55
But as I got older, you know, I had to reduce some of that alcohol drinking
11:01
because it affects your face. Plant-based diets are huge for your skin
11:08
You will slowly but surely start to find your skin just naturally clearing up and glowing
11:16
I feel like foods are natural medicine for our bodies, and we have to listen to that
11:24
I'm not purely vegetarian, as you guys know, but I think it's important to try to eat more plants
11:34
So add that a little bit more on your plates. The last one I think we've heard
11:40
from the time you are like in kindergarten. Water, water, water, water, water, water, water
11:47
Water, water, water! It's important that we hydrate. If you find yourself drinking less water
11:55
you will feel dehydrated, right? Well, guess what? Your face is dehydrated
11:59
When you're dry, that's when you start to crack. Like, you've seen like dry paint like crack
12:07
That's what happens to your face. I'm a visual learner, so I just had to give you guys that
12:12
So it's really, really, really important that you guys drink a lot of water
12:16
And how you know how much water you're supposed to drink? Weigh yourself, yes
12:21
Weigh yourself just once. I'm not telling you to do it every day. Don't close your eyes
12:27
Lean over, see it, accept it. And then divide that by two
12:32
That's how many ounces you're supposed to be drinking a day. I like to drink a gallon every day
12:39
I said I like, I'm trying. But I know for a fact that I at least drink 68
12:48
to like 74 ounces a day of water. That's the reason why I have this glove
12:55
Let me know please what you guys use and that works for you because I believe sharing is caring
13:00
My daughter knows how to say that now. Let me know in the comments below
13:04
