00:00Hi, I'm Felicia Walker, a skincare and beauty expert, and today I'm going to show you how
00:08a simple, easy skincare routine can change everything. No, seriously, it changes everything.
00:16Can we all agree that taking care of your skin is an important step in your self-care routine?
00:22Oh, oh wait, no? This is going to take longer than 10 minutes. Let's get into
00:29our self-care routine. So for me, in the evenings, that typically means a little bit of journaling,
00:34setting my intentions for the next day. I've got my sleep mask ready for a good night's sleep,
00:40and I've got my bonnet, but what happens after the bonnet? Let's get into that part. Unfortunately
00:46for a lot of us, skincare is not translating into self-care. It seems like something extra that's
00:53added onto the side, but skincare is self-care and it can be simple. Let's start by breaking
00:59down your top skincare concerns. Oh, dark spots. Okay. I heard dark spots over there. Same,
01:04sis, same. What else? What else? What else? I'm hearing, wait, what am I hearing? Rough texture?
01:09Like, okay. Okay. Yes. Got you. I got you. Come on. Come on. What else are we getting? What else am I
01:15hearing? Uneven texture? Yes. Uneven texture. Definitely a major concern. Wait, did someone say
01:23clogged pores? Oh, you are speaking my language. So let me show you a simple and easy skincare routine
01:31that can address all of these top concerns. Y'all ready? Let's go. So here's the thing about an
01:38effective skincare routine. It doesn't need to be complicated. It just needs to be targeted. So
01:45in having a targeted skincare routine, it doesn't mean that the routine is going to be complicated.
01:52It means that you're just building it out to address your specific needs. A crucial step in
02:01getting bouncy, dewy, beaming out of this world, glowy skin is exfoliating. And that means just getting
02:10the dead skin cells off of the surface so that your glowy, bouncy, dewy skin can shine through and
02:17all of your other products work a little deeper. You know what? Let's cleanse and see the glow stick
02:24in action. I'm all cleansed and dried off. My lip balm is gone. So I'm going to start with
02:32the glow stick. And I usually start at my chin, give myself a nice, big, happy smile,
02:38and just work upwards to cover the entire face. I love how mess-free this is. The stick form is just
02:52genius. You can travel with it. Look, I don't have it all up in my hairline. It's not messy.
03:03You can even go down to your neck and deck. I can get it in between my eyebrows,
03:10around my mouth. I mean, I just want to keep going and going because it's so easy. It's the most
03:22mess-free mask ever. The mask takes about 10 minutes. So in reinforcing the idea that skincare
03:34is self-care, why don't we use this time while the mask is setting to do a little journaling,
03:39maybe reflect on your day, set your intentions for the next day, really get in the habit of saying
03:44this 10 minutes is for me, that caring for my skin is caring for myself.
03:52Okay. So we have all of, as you can see, all the mask is off. Do you also notice how my hair
04:05is not disturbed? Not that that's the best part of this, but it's pretty good. I think it's just
04:12because the mask is so easy and mess-free and comes in stick form. So you're able to mask your skin and
04:18not mess up your edges. I have to love that. My next step is going to be the Olay Tone Perfection
04:25Serum. I love the transformative properties of vitamin C. And if you're new to serum and haven't
04:34used one before, I'll just give you a little bit of background on a serum, what it is. Serum is
04:39treatment for your skin. The molecular structure is tinier than a moisturizer. So it's able to penetrate
04:46more deeply and really address those challenging skincare issues that you may have. So again,
04:53this serum has vitamin C, which is phenomenal for treating dark spots, for addressing dark spots,
04:59hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone. Our final step to seal the deal is going to be Olay Regenerous
05:06Retinol 24. Yes, this is our third and final step in routine. Why? Because as I said earlier,
05:13an effective skincare routine does not need to be complicated. It just needs to be targeted.
05:19Let's see. Retinol 24 in action. So just get about that amount. I typically do
05:26a little four dots. I get my forehead, my cheeks, and my chin, and then I begin to massage into the
05:33skin. You can see it just blends seamlessly. There's no cast. It just absorbs really beautifully.
05:38Now I've been using retinol. I'll put this jar down so I can use both hands. I've been using retinol
05:44for about 20 years. And what we do know about retinol is that it is proven to soften the appearance
05:53of fine lines and wrinkling in the skin. Now, if you're pregnant or nursing, you definitely want to
06:00consult your physician because typically retinol is not recommended for pregnant or nursing women,
06:06but definitely consult your physician. What I really like about this retinol is that it is
06:14formulated in such a way that it's well-tolerated on the skin. Some retinols are very irritating on
06:21the skin and this is not at all. It also just applies so seamlessly and so flawlessly. I can't
06:28help but keep gliding my fingertips along my skin. It really does just melt into skin.
06:38You see that glide? It feels really luxurious on the skin. We've reached that portion of programming
06:45where I like to get a read on the room and make sure I've addressed all of the skincare concerns.
06:50So wait, over here, yes, we had dullness, lack of glow, wanting to boost the radiance. Yes. So for
06:57you, that is going to be the Olay Glow Boost Mask Stick. We also had uneven texture, dark spots,
07:05uneven tone. For you, that is going to be the Tone Perfection Serum. Lastly, we talked smoothing,
07:13lines, wrinkles, helping to soften the texture. That's going to be Olay Regenerous.
07:19Retinol 24. And as you can see from the demo, your skincare routine does not need to be complicated
07:26to work. It simply needs to be targeted. So by picking the right products that specifically
07:32laser target your skincare goals and concerns, you can achieve the skin that you need. And remember,
07:39skincare is a part of your self-care. Make the time. So when you're masking, you're doing your 10
07:45minutes. Journal. Do something for yourself. Spend time with yourself. Every day and every night,
07:50I want you to take a little bit of time for yourself. Focus on your skincare because it is
07:55self-care and it can be simple.
