For those who feel prompted to go out and buy a lot of new beauty items, I wanted to mention one more important “ingredient” - consistency. Many of us have beauty items to address the issues discussed but fail to use them! I typically respond to videos like these by online shopping for a new beauty regimen, yet fail to “shop” what I already have. This video is helpful and motivating, and I don’t think Jennifer would want everyone to go out and buy all these products mentioned. (Especially if it is beyond their means…see her videos on becoming debt free for example). This is not to critique the video, just to present another aspect. I feel it’s important to take care of ourselves and the best advice I ever received was to be consistent. Use that food stone/scrub/shaver every time bath for example and then you don’t have to “catch up.”
Yes! I share what I use because people always ask but I am not telling people to buy what I use. The main concepts are what I want people to take from the video.
These days, being really intentional about smiling is the best instant 🌞glow-up🌞! Even if noone sees it under a mask, I feel happier and more positive. When I smile, I'm more motivated to take care of myself and my appearance. 🤗♥️🇨🇦
Dry oil is new in my routine and I think a French tradition? At least my friend started using it during her time in France. I started using metamorphose new york dry oil and it has been so helpful for making me feel/look polished and refreshed throughout the day. I use it to help control my oily skin actually and have found it so helpful to use in my hair when heat styling. It become so soft and because my hair has more memory, I don't even have to use product, so there is no need to wash for a few days. I love this video and really have been moved this year to really hold on to the idea that we have so much we can already do and have to glow up. Even in our lives... I have so many things already to do an enjoy, that are enriching. I have a box of classical records to unpack from our last move, books to read, recipes to make! Taking care of my skin and hair and nutrition as well. I love what someone said on here... grow your glow. We already have so much beauty we have been given! Why not enjoy it? Why let it slip away from us. I really feel like our lives are like gardens and I see the days slipping by. It's almost like my life has become the neglected garden... yet the joy/hope is knowing that with attention, it can be revived and enjoyed :)
I really liked this comment. Days are slipping by and we need to pay attention and make them count! I also liked the “grow your glow” comment above and love the idea of incorporating one change at a time.
As a musician I had to stop wearing perfume years ago. Too many other musicians are allergic to perfumes and it’s hard to sing or play a wind instrument if you can’t breathe easily!
I love double cleansing. I don’t wear makeup everyday but I still double cleanse. Paula’s Choice is the only skin care line I’ll use! My skin looks great since using her products. Take care Jennifer!
I started the double cleanse last year, and it has made a world of difference in my skin. I have very sensitive skin and rosacea and am currently using Cosrx and Nature Republic cleansers. Love them!
Hello, I have rosacea too and my skin is currently not doing so well as I have recently given birth. Which products have worked for you? Thank you very much.
@@adrianan7543 - The Korean skincare products are wonderful for sensitive skin and rosacea. I get them from Amazon. I double cleanse with Nature Republic Forest Garden Chamomile Cleansing Oil and Cosrx Low-pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser. Good luck! Hope this helps.
I oil cleanse only, with a homemade concoction (usually whatever I have on hand which includes some combination of oils like olive oil, grapeseed, avocado). I like to keep things simple so the fewer products I use the happier I am. I can also use this oil combination for moisturizing, and on my hair and nails/cuticles. I just smoosh the leftover oil on wherever I need it.
LOVE your videos! If like me, you have really dry lips there's only one thing that works, and that's Lanolin! Yep, the same Lanolin we nursing Mom's use for cracked nipples. I didn't believe it when I first read it, but it's true! You wake up with some of the lanolin still on and your lips feel amazing!!! Don't knock it 'til you try it! You'll love it!
I completely agree with you on overpowering perfume and fragrance. I find too much perfume on an individual is the opposite of classy and is actually rather imposing. You wouldn’t yell at someone in a conversation just to be heard and overpowering perfume is like being yelled at via the nose!
Love u so much!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Now I am reading your book for the 100th time😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️The best writeress in the whole world🇦🇱🇦🇱Greetings from Albania❤️❤️❤️
The double cleanse is everything! I use tried and true cold crème. It removes everything and for someone with dry skin it really helps with retaining moisture.
This physical aspect of transformation does focus entirely on grooming with a lot of products. I would second the addition of dental hygiene. I have been particular about that my whole life and have a cleaning every 3-4 months. I know there have been a ton of videos on intermittent fasting as well, but why not about strength training and mobility? I am also 41 and have found that adding those to my cardiovascular routine have made such a difference in my confidence and fitness. Especially for women as we age, to help maintain bone density and combat muscle loss.
Actually a dermatologist I trust has repeatedly said not to use Vitamin C on your skin and instead consuming it by eating fresh fruit. Vitamin C needs a lot of chemicals to stabilize it into a shelf stable skincare product.
Thanks for all the hints. I never thought about the cleansing twice. Sounds like a good idea. Also, I have always moisturized my body, I love feeling soft and moisturized all over!!!
I do all of these! I like the Ordinary powdered Vitamin C - never oxidizes, which can be a problem for liquid ones. I add it to a serum and apply every morning. I also like DHC Deep Cleansing Oil for the first step of double cleansing. I don't worry too much about added benefits for the second water-based cleanser, since it's just going to be washed off. For mints, I have nano hydroxyapatite ones from Bite - hydroxyapatite is the building block of teeth, so it has added benefits. And, I make my own tallow balm with essential oil and use that everywhere - body, cuticles, heels. Tallow has vitamins A, D and K and antioxidants among other benefits and is a great mousturizer.
@Sara Améstegui Deik I make tallow from beef fat (you can find recipes/methods online, but basically I cook it on low in a slow cooker/instant pot for about 4 hours and then strain. You could also buy it - search online there are many sources, make sure it’s grass fed. I then add in a bit of cocoa butter while it’s warm and olive oil and a few drops of whatever essential oil I want to use. I don’t measure, but play around with the oil and cocoa butter ratios. Some batches are more like a lip balm consistency and some are more body buttery. If I had to give ratios - maybe 75% tallow, and the equal amounts of cocoa butter and olive oil (could also use coconut oil). As for essential oils, my last batch had lavender and citrus oils, though you could use anything you like (as long as it’s not irritating for skin).
These are all excellent tips! And YesI do double cleanse. First I remove my makeup and waterproof mascara with pure grapeseed oil that we buy at our organic market, and my second part to cleansing my face is OM Organics'White Willow Purifying Cleansing Gel'. Once a month I use non-aluminum baking soda with the cleanser on a very soft facial brush to exfoliate. Good dental hygiene is crucial for overall health, and I have always understood that smiling is so good to strengthening our facial muscles and yes, helps us feel good too! But when speaking and smiling it's so important to show our upper teeth, because apparently, when we show more of our lower teeth, we look much older and appear less happy than we really are. I never spray perfume on my neck or chest, as most perfume can be very drying and dehydrating to our delicate skin, so I spay it on my back, upper shoulder blades, or just my clothing (not silk, as it can stain). Finally , yes drink filtered water and I have to add, our posture is very important to look healthy, and breath fully, which oxygenates our blood and always gives us more energy! Thank you so very much Jennifer for your beautiful and elegant videos, You have such an inner beauty that matches your outer beauty♥️ Raven
I just want to say I ordered that foot file and the amount of dead skin that it removed was seriously horrifying. I've been so insecure about my dry, cracked, painful heels for years now and nothing has ever worked. That particular foot file is the answer if anyone has feet problems as bad as I do. Thank you so much for recommending it.
Self care through Ayurveda methods, like daily skin brushing, oil massage, showers, tongue scraping and oil pulling for teeth/mouth, nose oils and washes with neti pots, and ear oils and washes all work well in these areas
I’m a massive double cleansing fan as it is the only way to truly dissolve makeup. I prefer a balm to a liquid oil as somehow I always find my oil bottle eventually gets very messy. The Paula’s Choice BHA is an exceptionally good product as it has got rid of texture and given me the smoothest skin. I also use her moisturiser with an spf of 50 and it’s the only spf that doesn’t irritate the skin on my eyes. I’ve also been told it’s advised to use vitamin c in the daytime as it acts as a shield from pollution and environmental stressors as well as in instead of nighttime. Sadly my skin detests vitamin c almost as much as my body loves vit c rich foods which is most inconvenient. If you have a glut of wipes you still need to use up, I take them on days out and use them to freshen up hands or feet in summer when at the beach, they can collect up bits of sand between the beach and pavement if needed or to wipe down arms/legs before re-applying sunscreen on if out on a hike.
Double cleansing is a game changer! Adopted it about 3 years ago and it changed the concept of skin care for me. I use oil cleanser first than enzyme foam. Great content as always!
Removing my makeup with Bioderma micellar water and a cotton pad before cleansing has made such a difference to my skin. It's clearer and brighter. I noticed a drastic reduction in acne when I started to remove my makeup with micellar water prior to using my face wash. I also love Paula's Choice. Out of everything I've tried for acne, it's the best (the Clear range). Their Resist serum for oily/combination is great and I love their BHA liquid too.
Thank you so much for your videos! After the last two years, I sure could use a glow up. Thanks for the positivity and joy with which you approach life. Inspiring!!
I have been using Paula’s choice for many, many years. I am pretty satisfied with my routine but will definitely look into the 2-step cleansing system. Sounds impressive. Jennifer, your skin IS glowing.
I like to wear perfume, but worry that it could overpower others who don’t enjoy the scent. So I put on perfume under my pajamas at night. That way I get to enjoy the scent, feel special going to bed, but the scent is either covered by the next day’s clothes or has waned some.
Yes for double cleanse!!!! I have been doing it for several years, and it was great decision. For me, using retinoids is also crucial. I would like to incorporate vitamin C into my routine, but I have read that it is highly unstable component in the skin care, and at the moment, only Skinceuticals has managed to properly make the formula to achieve its stability and therefore effect. But it is above my budget....
Ever seen the movie with Sandra Bullock when she has to enter a beauty pageant and they give her a makeover? She is very grungy and they wax her brows, and the expert says "There should be two" and it is just hilarious!
Love this video! The idea of a glow up is so inspirational. I turn 40 this September! Taking about fragrances, I used to work on cruise ships, and there were these guys who were a violin/piano duo. They wore so much cologne you could smell it down the corridor. If they had been in the elevator before you, it was still there, even if the guys were no where in sight!! I love perfume thought, I tried Secret Genius and I love it. They discontinued Burberry Weekend long ago, which makes me so sad. Fragrances are nostalgic. I’m hanging on to my last bottle! 💕
Hi Jennifer, Thank you for spreading the information on the dangers of aluminum in deodorant; we can also avoid it in our kitchen for better health. Using all natural products more and more as I age is aiding my glow up: real oils on my cuticles, natural creams made with Shea & Cocoa butter plus rich unadulterated oils. Simply, if you won’t eat it-don’t put it on your body. Barefoot in the garden is great for grounding if there are not any harmful toxins used on it. I need to change my profile picture as I’m 54 today and that photo might be 10 years old. All the best, Julie 🌷 PS I’m loving your private community videos-thanks so much!
I'm 50, been cleansing and moisturizing since I was 13. I now cleanse with a milk cleanser then miscellany water, then moisturise with vitamin C. I don't wash my face often but do use an aha exfoliate weekly. I also drink a cup of warm water with lemon, my grandmother swore by it for detoxing and hydrating skin. Unsure if that's true but a colleague thought I was 40, not 50, on my birthday! (I think she was being very kind!)
That little part in the beginning where it shows you sitting in front of a window and make-up mirror - WOW what a beautiful space that is. It looks like you are at a Spa. Is that your bathroom? I'm so jealous (LOL)
Jennifer, the blouse you are wearing looks fantastic on you. I recently purchased the Pinrose sampler pack. Secret Genius is my favorite scent as well. This video provided practical and helpful information. Thank you!
My favourite first cleanse product is the Clinique Take The Day Off Balm. Have bought it for 8+ years as part of my double cleanse method. My best hygiene glow-up tips: Crest Whitestrips once per year, facial razors for peach fuzz, and armpit waxing.
I do the double-cleanse (recommended by a Parisian esthetician decades ago!) and use two different cleansers--one is the Soap and Glory "Peaches and Clean" cleansing milk and the other is a micellular cleanser for the makeup remover. The cleansing milk has fruit acids which help exfoliate. Loved this vid (but somehow the background music seemed a bit frenetic, so much so that I sometimes struggled to hear you towards the end). Thanks, Jennifer, as always, for the inspiration!
I’ve Ben double cleansing for years…and you’re right…makes a huge difference. Even if one doesn’t use heavy makeup, the first/oil based cleanse is essential in breaking down SPF, which creates a film on the skin (which is how they’re designed to work). Thanks for another wonderful video!
I use Simple soap, thoroughly rinsed, followed by Dermol cream which I gently smooth over my face and neck, this is rinsed off with luke warm water, followed with a Nivea Q10 moisturiser day/ night. I think this gentle routine has saved my skin from rosacea and helps with my psoriasis
Hi Jennifer you have some great tips! I'm a little concerned about the Vaseline a petroleum product, look it up and tell me what you think. I avoid it in all my beauty care products it's not very good for you, maybe try olive oil or pure shea butter. Thanks, with love.
@@MyCrownstar yes, people have been using it for years that doesn't necessarily mean it is good for you. Vaseline is derived from crude oil and can contain toxic chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), just do a little research and decide for yourself, I prefer to put something more natural on my body such as Shea butter.
I have become sensitive to the typical antiperspirant/ deodorant. They cause itching and rashes. Native has been my go to deodorant for the last few years and it works. The scent selection is great! So much variety! Great company and product!
I was thrilled to learn that I am doing most of these glow up tips! I like using Caudalie cleansing oil, and then following up with a CeraVe cleanser - it tends to do a very good job removing makeup, but I almost always need a little cotton pad to remove excess mascara! Great tips!
I double cleanse. Ponds cold cream to remove makeup and then a Neutrogena cleanser recommended by my dermatologist. Sometimes I follow with witch hazel, sometimes with a glycolic acid peel pad. Between rosacea and sebacceous hyperplasia, it gets a little interesting.
I do the double cleanse! I actually never used makeup wipes because it felt like a waste of money to me, haha. I’d rather use a little more of my cleanser than use the wipes. I switched to AnnMarie Gianni skincare last January and it changed the world of skincare for me. It’s so light and natural. I tried hopping around with other skincare but my skin is sensitive and the others kept giving me issues. I wound up spending more on other skincare than just spending a little extra on AnnMarie skincare. It seriously is the most nourishing to my skin and the first time I’ve never had issues with a mud mask, or felt such a glow. It’s like that phrase you say, “You can check into Hotel California but you can’t check out”. 😂 I actually ordered Pinrose for the first time this morning. It matched me with “Bold Soul” but I also wanted to try Wild Child and Secret Genius too. I love Native deodorant! No matter how I hop around with other clean deodorant brands, I always come back to Native. Have you tried the Native shampoo/conditioner line? I use Function of Beauty but am curious about the hair care line at Native.
Hi! We offer free returns/exchanges within 30 days of delivery, so you have time to see if Native is the right hair care for you! Returns/exchanges are only eligible for US orders
Great video ❤️ I’m going to rewatch and take notes! I thought I knew a lot about skincare but I learned some new things! Love Londontown thanks to you! I use their cuticle oil every night!
Kerasal is also a super great product for your feet. I don’t have cracked heels, but using it makes my feet hydrated and softens the skin so I no longer need to use an additional foot scrub at all.
Kerasal was a life saver for me! My heels are super cracked because of a thyroid condition. I tried everything and that’s the only thing that works for me.
Tip for when you’ve overdone the perfume: blot the perfumed areas with an alcohol wipe, or some rubbing alcohol on cotton. Water alone doesn’t make any difference.
I don't wear makeup, so I just use a product to care for my normal/oily T-Zone skin. I love CeraVa liquid to foam cleanser. Very gentle, and my skin feels nice and soft after using.
Probably last person alive to find this out but will share anyway, one big reason our lips dry out if we are constantly licking them is the enzyme in our saliva that helps to dissolve food, breaks down the skin on our lips! I dbl cleanse too . . . Clinique Cleaning Balm and a hydrating cream cleanser after!!!
Great info Jennifer ! I agree with all, but I would add using a lash serum to thicken and lengthen lashes, and ensuring brows are groomed. Lash serum seems pricey but it works out to about $10 per month, a lot of bang for the buck.
I introduce the double cleanse in 2020 with the Clinique take the day off and Neutrogena hydroboost gel cleanser. Also I use the hyaluronic lip balm from Kosas in the color Rush (berry) ❤️
Yes I have been using these regiments. To properly exfoliate and clean my skin by using the oil as you demonstrate it is a very nice way to moisturize and to create a barrier between your skin and a harsh detergent-like properties and cleansers across the board they have to have some detergent type element to to cleanse and even though some may not be harsh they still can offer some level of dryness so by doing the oil first and then doing that and then doing the exfoliant it is skin saving and nourishing so bravo to you for reintroducing this idea.
I use DHC cleansing oil - no matter what product I try - I always go back to it. It’s just so GOOD - and my face never feels tight or dry. I went through chemo in 2021 and it really did a number on my skin. I’m enjoying taking care of my skin and “shopping my stash”!! 🙂
A'del's deodorant is really nice as well! Their body butter is so lovely. Beautiful light scent and so pampering. I just sent my jar with my husband to take to work because his hands were so dry.
These are all amazing lux grooming tips. I appreciate them because some I have never heard before but have found very clever. (especially the vaseline on the heels of your feet.) Cant wait to give them a try. Just wanted to add that I heard from dermatologist's not to apply perfume on your neck because of the the drying alcohol effect but not sure the validity/credibility on that yet. But Perfume is a must I love any kind of aroma therapy on or around your environment.
I have been double cleansing for almost two years now. I use a cleansing oil and mild exfoliant by Tatcha. I am very pleased with the results. Thank you for another informative video. Looking our best in regard to cleansing routines , make-up and dressing well, helps us to feel good about ourselves.
I love the double-cleanse. I've been doing it for years on and off, but more so this year as I started to work in the beauty industry and wear more makeup. It's the only thing that has kept my skin clear and removed my makeup in depth without stripping my skin.
I use the Grace & Stella F-bomb cleansing balm with Neutrogena’s Hydro-Boost. I have tried using Vitamin C but it is just way too drying with my dry skin especially because I am using Tretinoin. Great video. I ordered the lip exfoliator.
Great recommendations 😊 I’ve been using Paula’s Choice toner for a couple of years now and can’t be with out it. I’ve also started to use Tretinoin for anti aging benefits, it’s been a game changer for my skin.
Yes! Double cleanse! Two lip products I use is the lippe stick by drunk elephant and the agave stick by bite Beauty both are healing and have such great ingredients to keep lips smooth and moisturized. I love the products by OSEA their undaria body oil and anti-aging lotion are fantastic as are their skincare products. Very clean ingredients but effective too.
I have been double cleansing for 4-5 years now after hearing a dermatologist suggest it. I have noticed my skin is much better since doing the double cleanse. First, is a rice water cleansing oil I get from Amazon to remove the makeup and second is Paula’s Choice anti aging cleanser. I also use Paula’s Choice BHA- it’s excellent and gets rid of rough spots! I’m not sure if you’ve ever used Josie Maran argan oil, but it’s great! I love their Face oil at nighttime and the body butter. 💕
I know! The Stella was my favorite!! Right now Beayty Pie has a mandarin leaf scent that is beautiful. Not a replacement at all yet one I like to wear daily.
Love your vids! So inspiring to be my best! I don't double cleanse or exfoliate! I do take pearl powder ---it's been a wonder and healed the cuticle area too...also cold water therapy has made my skin and hair its best!
Thank you for this informative and entertaining video! I stopped using cotton pads years ago, when I learned that they are quite unnecessary. You can simply add a toner etc just by dabbing the product to your face and neck carefully with your own, clean hands. No product goes to waste 👍🏻 I also use a Supracor bath mitt that exfoliates skin nicely every day. And finish the glow up with cold-pressed sweet almond oil when my skin is still damp. Perfection! 🧴🛁

Are you doing any workouts along with fasting and skin care routine?
I always rotate between Chanel Gabrielle and Ralph Lauren Woman. I like to spritz my clothing instead of my skin.
Unfortunately there is no shipping in EU for the native deodorant :(
So happy for this info. I had used Tom's of Maine natural deodorant for a long time but they've sold out to big Corporations. I'm going Native
@@kimgordon3695 Excited for you to give our products a try! Tell us what you think!
What I would recommend as a glow up is dental care. Flossing daily, regular dental visits and whitening if teeth are yellow or stained.
Yes! Excellent point!
Yes! Floss!!! (You don’t know what you’re missing!)😁
I just ordered a brush and floss from coco floss. I’m excited to try their stuff!
🙌🏻 Yes! Most People forget, teeth are in the middle of their Face🤗

My number one grooming habit is wearing perfume, even if I stay at home I always put it on just for a little something nice 🤣😍
Me too perfume every day even at home!

Me too😊 glowing up is fun but very expensive!😂
Completely agree, start with one and become consistent. Much better than trying everything and not consistently doing anything

The double cleanse is everything! I use tried and true cold crème. It removes everything and for someone with dry skin it really helps with retaining moisture.
Emphasis should be made on washing and moisturizing elbows. Nothing is more unsightly than dirty, crusty, elbows and feet.
This physical aspect of transformation does focus entirely on grooming with a lot of products. I would second the addition of dental hygiene. I have been particular about that my whole life and have a cleaning every 3-4 months.

Actually a dermatologist I trust has repeatedly said not to use Vitamin C on your skin and instead consuming it by eating fresh fruit. Vitamin C needs a lot of chemicals to stabilize it into a shelf stable skincare product.
I was just about to say this-- I believe Dr. Dray says most vitamin C oxidizes so it's not worth using! Great tips on all other accounts, though!
That's interesting! I researched many articles that suggested it was beneficial for the skin.

@Sara Améstegui Deik I make tallow from beef fat (you can find recipes/methods online, but basically I cook it on low in a slow cooker/instant pot for about 4 hours and then strain. You could also buy it - search online there are many sources, make sure it’s grass fed. I then add in a bit of cocoa butter while it’s warm and olive oil and a few drops of whatever essential oil I want to use. I don’t measure, but play around with the oil and cocoa butter ratios. Some batches are more like a lip balm consistency and some are more body buttery. If I had to give ratios - maybe 75% tallow, and the equal amounts of cocoa butter and olive oil (could also use coconut oil). As for essential oils, my last batch had lavender and citrus oils, though you could use anything you like (as long as it’s not irritating for skin).
These are all excellent tips! And YesI do double cleanse. First I remove my makeup and waterproof mascara with pure grapeseed oil that we buy at our organic market, and my second part to cleansing my face is OM Organics'White Willow Purifying Cleansing Gel'. Once a month I use non-aluminum baking soda with the cleanser on a very soft facial brush to exfoliate. Good dental hygiene is crucial for overall health, and I have always understood that smiling is so good to strengthening our facial muscles and yes, helps us feel good too! But when speaking and smiling it's so important to show our upper teeth, because apparently, when we show more of our lower teeth, we look much older and appear less happy than we really are. I never spray perfume on my neck or chest, as most perfume can be very drying and dehydrating to our delicate skin, so I spay it on my back, upper shoulder blades, or just my clothing (not silk, as it can stain). Finally , yes drink filtered water and I have to add, our posture is very important to look healthy, and breath fully, which oxygenates our blood and always gives us more energy! Thank you so very much Jennifer for your beautiful and elegant videos, You have such an inner beauty that matches your outer beauty♥️

I just want to say I ordered that foot file and the amount of dead skin that it removed was seriously horrifying. I've been so insecure about my dry, cracked, painful heels for years now and nothing has ever worked. That particular foot file is the answer if anyone has feet problems as bad as I do. Thank you so much for recommending it.
I implemented the double cleanse in 2021. Previously I was the queen of makeup wipes. This new habit has really improved my skin.
Same here! The makeup wipes were drying on my skin.
And helped the environment. No more throw-away wipes!
Self care through Ayurveda methods, like daily skin brushing, oil massage, showers, tongue scraping and oil pulling for teeth/mouth, nose oils and washes with neti pots, and ear oils and washes all work well in these areas
I’m a massive double cleansing fan as it is the only way to truly dissolve makeup. I prefer a balm to a liquid oil as somehow I always find my oil bottle eventually gets very messy. The Paula’s Choice BHA is an exceptionally good product as it has got rid of texture and given me the smoothest skin. I also use her moisturiser with an spf of 50 and it’s the only spf that doesn’t irritate the skin on my eyes.
I’ve also been told it’s advised to use vitamin c in the daytime as it acts as a shield from pollution and environmental stressors as well as in instead of nighttime. Sadly my skin detests vitamin c almost as much as my body loves vit c rich foods which is most inconvenient.
If you have a glut of wipes you still need to use up, I take them on days out and use them to freshen up hands or feet in summer when at the beach, they can collect up bits of sand between the beach and pavement if needed or to wipe down arms/legs before re-applying sunscreen on if out on a hike.
Double cleansing is a game changer! Adopted it about 3 years ago and it changed the concept of skin care for me. I use oil cleanser first than enzyme foam. Great content as always!
Removing my makeup with Bioderma micellar water and a cotton pad before cleansing has made such a difference to my skin. It's clearer and brighter. I noticed a drastic reduction in acne when I started to remove my makeup with micellar water prior to using my face wash. I also love Paula's Choice. Out of everything I've tried for acne, it's the best (the Clear range). Their Resist serum for oily/combination is great and I love their BHA liquid too.
I use micellar water first to take my makeup off also then a foaming face wash for sensitive skin and my skin looks better than ever
I thumbs up before her videos even start playing. She never misses!🎯
Always double cleanse with oil based and then water based. I have never put acid on my skin. Your skin is beautiful!
Thank you so much for your videos! After the last two years, I sure could use a glow up. Thanks for the positivity and joy with which you approach life. Inspiring!!
Thank you, Brianna!
I have been using Paula’s choice for many, many years. I am pretty satisfied with my routine but will definitely look into the 2-step cleansing system. Sounds impressive.
Jennifer, your skin IS glowing.
Thank you, Nadege!
I like to wear perfume, but worry that it could overpower others who don’t enjoy the scent. So I put on perfume under my pajamas at night. That way I get to enjoy the scent, feel special going to bed, but the scent is either covered by the next day’s clothes or has waned some.
That is so thoughtful (and clever!) of you.
Yes for double cleanse!!!! I have been doing it for several years, and it was great decision. For me, using retinoids is also crucial. I would like to incorporate vitamin C into my routine, but I have read that it is highly unstable component in the skin care, and at the moment, only Skinceuticals has managed to properly make the formula to achieve its stability and therefore effect. But it is above my budget....
Question. I don't wear makeup, ever. Do I still need a 2 step cleansing routine?
Ever seen the movie with Sandra Bullock when she has to enter a beauty pageant and they give her a makeover? She is very grungy and they wax her brows, and the expert says "There should be two" and it is just hilarious!
LOVE the Glow Up series videos Jennifer!! Nice touch with the mints
Love this video! The idea of a glow up is so inspirational. I turn 40 this September!
Taking about fragrances, I used to work on cruise ships, and there were these guys who were a violin/piano duo. They wore so much cologne you could smell it down the corridor. If they had been in the elevator before you, it was still there, even if the guys were no where in sight!!
I love perfume thought, I tried Secret Genius and I love it. They discontinued Burberry Weekend long ago, which makes me so sad. Fragrances are nostalgic. I’m hanging on to my last bottle! 💕
Hi Jennifer, Thank you for spreading the information on the dangers of aluminum in deodorant; we can also avoid it in our kitchen for better health. Using all natural products more and more as I age is aiding my glow up: real oils on my cuticles, natural creams made with Shea & Cocoa butter plus rich unadulterated oils. Simply, if you won’t eat it-don’t put it on your body. Barefoot in the garden is great for grounding if there are not any harmful toxins used on it. I need to change my profile picture as I’m 54 today and that photo might be 10 years old. All the best, Julie 🌷
PS I’m loving your private community videos-thanks so much!
I'm 50, been cleansing and moisturizing since I was 13. I now cleanse with a milk cleanser then miscellany water, then moisturise with vitamin C. I don't wash my face often but do use an aha exfoliate weekly. I also drink a cup of warm water with lemon, my grandmother swore by it for detoxing and hydrating skin. Unsure if that's true but a colleague thought I was 40, not 50, on my birthday! (I think she was being very kind!)
That little part in the beginning where it shows you sitting in front of a window and make-up mirror - WOW what a beautiful space that is. It looks like you are at a Spa. Is that your bathroom? I'm so jealous (LOL)
Jennifer, the blouse you are wearing looks fantastic on you. I recently purchased the Pinrose sampler pack. Secret Genius is my favorite scent as well. This video provided practical and helpful information. Thank you!
Great video 💗. I double cleanse because it is the only thing that removes my makeup and sunscreen properly 😅. It's a life-saver.
My favourite first cleanse product is the Clinique Take The Day Off Balm. Have bought it for 8+ years as part of my double cleanse method.
My best hygiene glow-up tips: Crest Whitestrips once per year, facial razors for peach fuzz, and armpit waxing.
I do the double-cleanse (recommended by a Parisian esthetician decades ago!) and use two different cleansers--one is the Soap and Glory "Peaches and Clean" cleansing milk and the other is a micellular cleanser for the makeup remover. The cleansing milk has fruit acids which help exfoliate. Loved this vid (but somehow the background music seemed a bit frenetic, so much so that I sometimes struggled to hear you towards the end). Thanks, Jennifer, as always, for the inspiration!
Thank you! I've never heard of double cleaning. I love this idea!
I’ve Ben double cleansing for years…and you’re right…makes a huge difference. Even if one doesn’t use heavy makeup, the first/oil based cleanse is essential in breaking down SPF, which creates a film on the skin (which is how they’re designed to work). Thanks for another wonderful video!
I use Simple soap, thoroughly rinsed, followed by Dermol cream which I gently smooth over my face and neck, this is rinsed off with luke warm water, followed with a Nivea Q10 moisturiser day/ night. I think this gentle routine has saved my skin from rosacea and helps with my psoriasis
Hi Jennifer you have some great tips! I'm a little concerned about the Vaseline a petroleum product, look it up and tell me what you think. I avoid it in all my beauty care products it's not very good for you, maybe try olive oil or pure shea butter. Thanks, with love.
Vaseline/petroleum jelly is perfectly fine to use on your body and even face if you want. Vaseline has been used for centuries with no problem.
@@MyCrownstar yes, people have been using it for years that doesn't necessarily mean it is good for you. Vaseline is derived from crude oil and can contain toxic chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), just do a little research and decide for yourself, I prefer to put something more natural on my body such as Shea butter.
I have read alot about it and studies show it is completely safe. Almost any cosmetic chemical, even "natural" ones, can have contaminants.
I have become sensitive to the typical antiperspirant/ deodorant. They cause itching and rashes.
Native has been my go to deodorant for the last few years and it works. The scent selection is great! So much variety! Great company and product!
😊😊😊
I have found that a touch of rose oil behind the ear is my favorite scent
I was thrilled to learn that I am doing most of these glow up tips! I like using Caudalie cleansing oil, and then following up with a CeraVe cleanser - it tends to do a very good job removing makeup, but I almost always need a little cotton pad to remove excess mascara! Great tips!
I'm obsessed with body moisturizing. I hate dry skin.
I double cleanse. Ponds cold cream to remove makeup and then a Neutrogena cleanser recommended by my dermatologist. Sometimes I follow with witch hazel, sometimes with a glycolic acid peel pad. Between rosacea and sebacceous hyperplasia, it gets a little interesting.
Oh no! I’m so sad to hear that STELLA was discontinued! I loved that perfume!
Thanks Jennifer as always for the fun video 😀
I do the double cleanse! I actually never used makeup wipes because it felt like a waste of money to me, haha. I’d rather use a little more of my cleanser than use the wipes.
I switched to AnnMarie Gianni skincare last January and it changed the world of skincare for me. It’s so light and natural. I tried hopping around with other skincare but my skin is sensitive and the others kept giving me issues. I wound up spending more on other skincare than just spending a little extra on AnnMarie skincare. It seriously is the most nourishing to my skin and the first time I’ve never had issues with a mud mask, or felt such a glow.
It’s like that phrase you say, “You can check into Hotel California but you can’t check out”. 😂
I actually ordered Pinrose for the first time this morning. It matched me with “Bold Soul” but I also wanted to try Wild Child and Secret Genius too.
I love Native deodorant! No matter how I hop around with other clean deodorant brands, I always come back to Native.
Have you tried the Native shampoo/conditioner line? I use Function of Beauty but am curious about the hair care line at Native.
Hi! We offer free returns/exchanges within 30 days of delivery, so you have time to see if Native is the right hair care for you!
Returns/exchanges are only eligible for US orders
Stella! My all time favorite fragrance! It is still available but have to hunt for it! Thanks, Jennifer!❤️🌹
Great video ❤️ I’m going to rewatch and take notes! I thought I knew a lot about skincare but I learned some new things! Love Londontown thanks to you! I use their cuticle oil every night!
Kerasal is also a super great product for your feet. I don’t have cracked heels, but using it makes my feet hydrated and softens the skin so I no longer need to use an additional foot scrub at all.
Kerasal was a life saver for me! My heels are super cracked because of a thyroid condition. I tried everything and that’s the only thing that works for me.
@@marianal2657 It really does wonders! It makes the skin smooth and soft 💗
I love and stand by the Paula’s Choice exfoliating gel.
Tip for when you’ve overdone the perfume: blot the perfumed areas with an alcohol wipe, or some rubbing alcohol on cotton. Water alone doesn’t make any difference.
The glow up series are my favorite
I don't wear makeup, so I just use a product to care for my normal/oily T-Zone skin. I love CeraVa liquid to foam cleanser. Very gentle, and my skin feels nice and soft after using.
Glad I saw this, Jennifer! I've been kind of slack lately with cleaning my face, and I want to try double cleansing!
Probably last person alive to find this out but will share anyway, one big reason our lips dry out if we are constantly licking them is the enzyme in our saliva that helps to dissolve food, breaks down the skin on our lips! I dbl cleanse too . . . Clinique Cleaning Balm and a hydrating cream cleanser after!!!
Great info Jennifer ! I agree with all, but I would add using a lash serum to thicken and lengthen lashes, and ensuring brows are groomed. Lash serum seems pricey but it works out to about $10 per month, a lot of bang for the buck.
I introduce the double cleanse in 2020 with the Clinique take the day off and Neutrogena hydroboost gel cleanser. Also I use the hyaluronic lip balm from Kosas in the color Rush (berry) ❤️
Yes I have been using these regiments. To properly exfoliate and clean my skin by using the oil as you demonstrate it is a very nice way to moisturize and to create a barrier between your skin and a harsh detergent-like properties and cleansers across the board they have to have some detergent type element to to cleanse and even though some may not be harsh they still can offer some level of dryness so by doing the oil first and then doing that and then doing the exfoliant it is skin saving and nourishing so bravo to you for reintroducing this idea.
I double cleanse. Haven Ben doing it for years and can’t imagine cleaning my face in any other way.
I use DHC cleansing oil - no matter what product I try - I always go back to it. It’s just so GOOD - and my face never feels tight or dry.
I went through chemo in 2021 and it really did a number on my skin. I’m enjoying taking care of my skin and “shopping my stash”!! 🙂
How are you doing now?
@@TheDailyConnoisseur I’m doing great!! Thank you for asking. I have my last treatment next week!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@@andreaf.6572 I'm so glad to hear it!
A'del's deodorant is really nice as well! Their body butter is so lovely. Beautiful light scent and so pampering. I just sent my jar with my husband to take to work because his hands were so dry.
Thank you, Jennifer! I enjoyed your glow up tips and experience so much!
These are all amazing lux grooming tips. I appreciate them because some I have never heard before but have found very clever. (especially the vaseline on the heels of your feet.) Cant wait to give them a try. Just wanted to add that I heard from dermatologist's not to apply perfume on your neck because of the the drying alcohol effect but not sure the validity/credibility on that yet. But Perfume is a must I love any kind of aroma therapy on or around your environment.
I have been double cleansing for almost two years now. I use a cleansing oil and mild exfoliant by Tatcha. I am very pleased with the results.
Thank you for another informative video. Looking our best in regard to cleansing routines , make-up and dressing well, helps us to feel good about ourselves.
Darcy from Texas🌹I so appreciate you Jennifer. God bless you n your family.
I've been double cleansing for close to a decade and it has completely changed my skin!
I've been using jojoba oil for years as my first cleanse to remove sunscreen and eye makeup.
I love the double-cleanse. I've been doing it for years on and off, but more so this year as I started to work in the beauty industry and wear more makeup. It's the only thing that has kept my skin clear and removed my makeup in depth without stripping my skin.
When removing stage makeup, wipes just don't cut it. When I get home, I reclean with other products.
I use the Grace & Stella F-bomb cleansing balm with Neutrogena’s Hydro-Boost. I have tried using Vitamin C but it is just way too drying with my dry skin especially because I am using Tretinoin. Great video. I ordered the lip exfoliator.
Great recommendations 😊
I’ve been using Paula’s Choice toner for a couple of years now and can’t be with out it.
I’ve also started to use Tretinoin for anti aging benefits, it’s been a game changer for my skin.
I’ve been using tretinoin for a year now and I agree it’s a game changer!
Yes! Double cleanse! Two lip products I use is the lippe stick by drunk elephant and the agave stick by bite Beauty both are healing and have such great ingredients to keep lips smooth and moisturized.
I love the products by OSEA their undaria body oil and anti-aging lotion are fantastic as are their skincare products. Very clean ingredients but effective too.
#11.. it won't matter without consistency!
Nice tips! Thanks for the encouragement 😊
I am a minimalist. Thanks Jennifer for these tips.
I like your simple tips
I have double cleaned forever and rinse with ice cold water. I’m 61 and hardly any lines and no Botox.
I use coconut oil to remove my make up and then cerave cleanser to remove the oil.
I have been double cleansing for 4-5 years now after hearing a dermatologist suggest it. I have noticed my skin is much better since doing the double cleanse. First, is a rice water cleansing oil I get from Amazon to remove the makeup and second is Paula’s Choice anti aging cleanser. I also use Paula’s Choice BHA- it’s excellent and gets rid of rough spots! I’m not sure if you’ve ever used Josie Maran argan oil, but it’s great! I love their Face oil at nighttime and the body butter. 💕
Feeling pretty good about my current habits after seeing this! ✨💕
I know! The Stella was my favorite!! Right now Beayty Pie has a mandarin leaf scent that is beautiful. Not a replacement at all yet one I like to wear daily.
Stella was so good...
I’ve double cleansed for about 6 years since reading Caroline Hirons blog
Watching Caroline Hirons videos is where I learned the importance of double cleansing. I've been doing it for years.
Love double cleansing! Tatcha's Camilla Oil Cleaner cleanser followed by Murad's Probiotic cream cleanser are my go to!
Hi! I’ve been double cleansing for years. I use Dermalogica Pre-cleanse. I’m going to try Paula’s Choice.
Thanks, Jennifer!
Clarins, Dermalogica & Murad are my favorite having worked as a beauty advisor for years 💕 xoo
You use a lot of the same products I do! I love Paula’s Choice.
This was full of helpful information. Especially the double cleansing. Thank you!
Love your vids! So inspiring to be my best! I don't double cleanse or exfoliate! I do take pearl powder ---it's been a wonder and healed the cuticle area too...also cold water therapy has made my skin and hair its best!
Thank you for this informative and entertaining video! I stopped using cotton pads years ago, when I learned that they are quite unnecessary. You can simply add a toner etc just by dabbing the product to your face and neck carefully with your own, clean hands. No product goes to waste 👍🏻 I also use a Supracor bath mitt that exfoliates skin nicely every day. And finish the glow up with cold-pressed sweet almond oil when my skin is still damp. Perfection! 🧴🛁
