Lydia Elise Millen’s Nighttime Skincare Routine | Go To Bed With Me | Harper’s Bazaar
good evening everyone and welcome into my bathroom today i’m going to be taking off a full face of makeup with you [Music] i’m going to start by tying my hair up with a silk scrunchie i pretty much mainly use silk scrunchies or like invisibles or something like that just because they’re a little bit kinder to my hair and i get less kinks because i’ve got quite coarse hair so i start off by wetting my eyes because i don’t like applying product right straight onto a dry face for me it just feels like i’m pulling my eyelashes out so i’m definitely gonna start off by wetting my face [Laughter] and just like that i look like a raccoon to take off my eye makeup and to really loosen it up i’m going to use the revitalash micellar lash water and it’s a conditioning eye makeup remover and i use these on these little reusable cotton pads and i just pop that on and this just nicely loosens things up um i was having some problems with my eyelashes and i think i was using a mascara that was a little bit too harsh and um so i’ve been taking extra care of my eyelashes recently so i just kind of get that all loosened up like all of the eyeliner and eyeshadow just loosened and for the most part taken off i then go in with a very grubby elizabeth arden ceramide replenishing oil and i just put a couple of pumps like that onto my hand and i massage it in to break down the rest of my makeup okay that’s eyes pretty much um cleansed and now just to give my face a second cleanse i’m going to use the amorovita cleansing foam um i tend not to use this on my eyes because it can be a little bit too stingy so i just get this into a lava and massage into my face like so i don’t know what it is with my skin but it seems to react a lot better with foaming cleanses and if i use anything like an oil or a gel or a balm cleanser i have to use a uh foam afterwards just to kind of clear out my pores oh oh my gosh it feels so nice i’ve literally wanted to get my makeup off all day before it starts sort of drying out i usually take a face mist at this point because i like to lock in moisture as soon as i kind of um cleansed it um usually i’d probably go for like the um audacity rose and neroli mist that’s probably one of my favorites and it’s also really nice over makeup as well but i’ve only got the l’occitane essential face mist um in my drawer at the moment but it’s perfect it’s beautiful so let’s get it on my face also smells really nice have a little bit of a tidy up as well i leave this bathroom in such a mess after i do my skincare routine my husband walks in and he’s like so whilst that sets in i’m going to use the suku intense rich eye cream and i take a little bit on the back of my nail put it between my index finger and kind of pat it in very gently i love this eye cream because it’s it’s rich and it’s kind of one of those it does exactly what it says on the tin eye creams because i prefer more indulgent eye creams i like it to feel quite rich and nourishing because my eyes can get really dry so this one works really well so i’m going to use the esper balancing face treatment oil i love love face oils and they work really well with my skin so just pop a few little droplets on my hand i kind of warm it between my hands as well whilst that soaks in i’m gonna brush my teeth because brushing my teeth is part of this routine it’s a very important part so i do it at this point because i used to always do it at the very end and then i realized that i would put lip balm on and then i um would brush my teeth and it would just kind of take off all the lip balms so it makes sense to do it now i use the spotlight what’s it called toothbrush sonic toothbrush and then i use their whitening toothpaste as well i always find this really weird brushing my teeth on camera it’s like teeth are done so now i can go and put the moisturizer of choice on my face i’m using the espa optimal skin pro moisturizer and this is just super rich and it’s going to hydrate my skin and lock in all of the moisture um it’s also the most beautiful spa brand one of my favorite kind of spas to go to i love the grove and i also love their spas over overseas as well i’m a big spa goer and i definitely have like a lot of treatments when it comes to my skin as well like i like to have regular chemical peels and also at the moment i’m having collagen wave and well not at the moment because nobody’s going anywhere but um in the run-up to this i was having a course of a skin pen and my skin had never been better so i’m trying to prolong the effects of that so i will usually use a retinol um but because my skin is quite dry at the moment i’m just i’m going for the more hydrating stuff um and then we have the final bit of my skin and i go in with um a really incredible like iconic like lip balm this is the by terry bomber rose and my husband and i go through these at a rate of knots they are amazing and we have them all over the house my mum uses it everyone i know uses it so um putting on a little layer of this before bed means that you wake up the next morning and your lips are nice and hydrated and ready for a good nude lipstick just the way i like it um if i have any dryness around my nose or any dry areas which i can sometimes get i will use the lano all over everywhere malty cream this is another holy grail and at the moment i’ve got quite a lot of dryness around my nose i also get really dry ears as well it’s so weird um but i’ll just rub this in and it kind of erases any dryness and flaking skin so and then finally i have a little bit of repetitive strain it’s all of the scrolling i’m doing whilst in lockdown and i’ve been using the wildflower cbd cool stick um just on the areas where i’ve been getting any sort of rep repetitive strain issues and so just rub a little bit of that on and then that’s it and that’s my entire little evening beauty routine sometimes it can be a little bit more um focused around like acids and things like that but as i said my skin just needs all of the hydration so i wanted to to use a lot of products that were just going to soak in and really nourish my skin so yeah i hope you have enjoyed seeing my evening routine and um thanks for watching
