The Beauty Blogger Guide to Great Skin

Hi lovelies,

One way that I love to take care of myself is by making sure that my skin is healthy, moisturized, clean, and smooth. It allows my inner confidence to shine through without worry.

That’s why I wanted to share with you my three ways that I clean, treat, and take care of my skin, so that you too can feel confident and strong.

#1: Clean your skin with the beauty brush Zoe by QYKSonic

I love starting my skincare routine by making sure that I deeply cleanse my skin to effectively remove makeup and oil. However, just using water and my hands alone sometimes just doesn’t cut it.

That’s why I turn to the new innovative beauty brush Zoe by QYKSonic to deeply cleanse my skin and reach inside my pores that I can’t clean on my own.

ZOE, the first and only 3-in-1 anti-aging Sonic Beauty Device that effectively Cleanses, Massages, and Applies your skincare products.

Choose your favorite color ZOE, and get the world’s first cleansing, massaging, and soothing product applying, anti-aging Sonic Beauty Device shipped in one eco-friendly box.

#2: Revitalize your skin with Freeman Beauty

After my skin is thoroughly cleansed, I love using a face mask by Freeman Beauty. They replenish my skin and gives it an added boost of moisturize and leaves my face feeling healthy, smooth, and glowing.

One of my favorites is the Pore Cleansing Strawberry and Mint sheet masks because it makes my skin camera-ready for my photoshoots.

Another one of my favorites is the Hydrating Aloe and Seaberry sheet mask that I use when I get home from traveling for an extra moisturizing boost since my skin dries out from being on airplanes.

---

#3: Treat your skin with Physicians Formula

Once my skin is cleansed and revitalized, I then love to treat it with my go-to skincare products from Physcians Formula.

During the day, I love using their Rose All Day Oil-free Serum that tightens my skin and gives it an added glow.

 At night, my favorite way to treat my skin is with their Vitamin C Brightening Facial Oil Stick that helps to brighten my skin and fade any dark spots or fine lines.  

When I need to really clean my skin, I use their Charcoal Detox Stick to removes any leftover remnants of make-up, oils, and impurities in my skin and pores.

Pro beauty tip: Put their Physicians Formula RefreshMint Cucumber & Bamboo Eye De-Puffer in the fridge for an extra cooling, refreshing, and depuffing effect.

Hi lovelies,

You know I love a good party, but what I love even more is bringing you the latest in beauty and skincare. That's why I'm so excited to share with you the beauty scoop on Shiseido's new  Essential Energy moisturizer.  

Co-hosted with Sonoya Mizuno, they threw a celebrity filled, interactive, sensorial-event to celebrate the launch of three new creams: Gel Cream, Moisturizing Cream, and Day Cream. The new creams all felt super silky and smooth on my skin, adding an instant layer of protection and moisture, without leaving behind any oily residue. 

I sipped on healthy mocktails, danced the night away, and hung out with EJ Johnson, Lauren Bushnell, Cassie Scerbo, Jamie Chung, Shenae Grimes, and James Kennedy. 

Shiseido, the leader in Japanese prestige beauty and skincare, introduces Essential Energy – a new era in skincare, inspired by neuroscience. The new Essential Energy collection of three moisturizers, offers a fundamental solution to skin’s declining responsive power with breakthrough ReNeura Technology which reawakens the skin’s ability to detect and transmit signals allowing it to better react to outside stimulus or environmental stressors, preventing damage in real-time.

The 3 Things I Did As A Panelist At BlushCon with Tobi

Hi lovelies,

This past weekend I had the pleasure of being a panelist during BlushCon, an LA based celebration of all things youth and beauty featuring the best cosmetics brands from the United States, Asia, and beyond. Beauty lovers were able to listen to panel discussions and meet their favorite beauty influencers and brands.

My panel took place on January 13th, and the topic was, “How to Build Your Audience and Monetize It.” While prepareing for the big day, I knew that there were three that I needed to do in order to make my session a success. Please check them out below and let me know what you think!

#1: Prepare. Prepare. Prepare.

The first thing I did was go over the panel questions that I was sent prior to our session. I wrote out my answers on paper and then practiced saying them aloud. This way, once I was on the panel with the crowd and all of the lights, I would still feel confident and prepared because I would already know the talking points and message that I wanted to get across. There’s no substitute for preparation to build confidence while public speaking.

#2: Comfort. Comfort. Comfort.

Sitting on stage in front of a large crowd with cameras and lights can be a bit intimidating, so feeling confident in my own skin is super important when it comes to public speaking. That’s why I wanted to make sure that my outfit made a style statement while still being comfortable.

I opted to wear a vintage sequined jacket because I love, love sequins and paired it with a Up To No Good Distressed Tee by Tobi in white. Of course, I wore my signature Kate Spade black tights and brought along my Sandy Lisa Amalfi Shoulder Bag in beige to carry all of my stuff.

#3 Connect. Connect. Connect.

I made sure to not only connect with the audience and the people in the crowd, but I also made sure to connect with the other panelists. We laughed and shared stories prior to our session so we were able to work as a team while on-stage.

We also started following each other on Instagram and tagged each other when we posted about the event to make sure that we were supporting each other. It’s important to see your peers as collaborators and not as competition.
