Med Esthetician Reacts To Luhhsetty ‘s Fall Skincare Routine & Chats Nutrition
get that bread get that head then belief i know the beauty business and i see what you are doing belief and i don’t believe in it okay angry consumer has entered the room today we are reacting to lacette’s fall night routine and it sounds like she’ll be taking us through her skincare as well as some of the things she eats before bed and her other beauty rituals and if you don’t know or if you’re new here hello my name is cassandra benson i’m an expert and have been in the industry for over 10 years and i’ve personally suffered with acne for over 15.
and i’ve currently got this hulk and breakout who decided to just you know pull up and park in this one area and the skin over my scapula and just cause me massive amounts of pain every single time i try to wear a t-shirt or a sweatshirt so we’re in a partially backless halter dress today it also covers this but we’re not going to talk about that i’m a medical esthetician and although i’ve worked alongside and with both doctors and dermatologists i am not a physician myself that being said i love analyzing scrutinizing and learning from other people’s skincare routines so today that’s what we’re going to do along with green chef where we’re discussing meals along with the skincare brands that she recommends and uses on her face again this is a fall night routine so i’m assuming we’re transitioning from summer kind of into fall and winter um but instead of me speculating let’s just find out by pressing play i watched the ads for her hey guys it’s lissette here and kitty here and in today’s video i’m going to show you guys my fall night routine i actually just finished filming this look and i’m on tick tock now and so i feel like tick tock is just like super super fun and so that’s what i did today she’s a cat mom too oh my god that little bundle of joy is adorable i’m actually i’m going to go follow her on tik tok and um yes i did the tick tock thing as well so if you want 15 second skincare tips or 30 second product face-offs at cassandrabankson atlasset go find us say hi let us know that you are also a figment of the internet i have my little stand and then i also have my ring light also a huge thank you to believe for sponsoring this video first step is getting some food because i’m so hungry love that belief is sponsoring her video but we’re going to dive into the products and see which ones are worth it and as mentioned earlier we’re partnering with green chef on this video so we’re going to see what she eats we’re going to look at it from a nutritional standpoint if you didn’t know i’m a nutritionist i don’t really talk about it but yeah that’s a thing not a dietitian those are different but as a nutritionist as a vegan myself i care about being healthy from the inside out as someone in medicine who sees all the different things that can go wrong with a human body i know that there are many different ways to care for ourselves and protect ourselves and you know skincare is self-care and also eating and nurturing our body through nutrition is another one of them but before i make some dinner i’m actually gonna change into some comfy pajamas because that’s the first thing you gotta do and for dinner i’m making one of my go-to meals which is salmon and some sides oh my god so first off she has a butterfly t-shirt or sweater and you know that the butterfly represents growth and transformation and when i see the salmon i initially flinch a little bit just because you know factory farming when it comes to fish is a thing it’s not always good for them factory farmed salmon does not have as many omega fatty acids as naturally caught and again as a vegan that’s something i choose not to consume however i do like the veggies and the grains that she’s putting on her plate let’s see what she snacks on so this actually looks like a pretty good balance of food if you’re not healing from a surgery or something or if you’re not extraordinarily athletic this is a decent amount of macronutrients to consume i love that we have a protein we have a grain and we do have those vegetables i personally would like to see vegetables take up a little bit more of the plate um if you’re using a plate maybe like two-thirds but these carrots have a ton of beta-carotene all of these are going to have amazing starches helpful fiber really going to be amazing for digestion she didn’t say what type of rice this is as well but it looks like it’s either seasoned with something like turmeric which is extraordinarily helpful it’s an amazing antioxidant and with that salmon it looks like there’s pepper on it and did you know that when consuming turmeric and pepper together you actually increase the absorption and you enhance the benefits so again although i don’t personally eat fish salmon is a much better choice than something like beef or something like lamb red meat has been classified as a class 2a carcinogen so again even though we don’t know where this salmon is coming from it is a much healthier and a much better option the unfortunate thing is that i know that these can be expensive and time-consuming especially just looking at this beautiful plate it can take a lot of time to cook things like this and i personally find it’s almost like we’re so busy these days that microwave meals or eating out or like going to taco bell is the norm and cooking food at home and actually eating it as a family with a friend or with your cat it’s almost become a rarity but i do think that if we turn those cooking moments into enjoyable moments we can turn food into fuel and nutrition into like an experience um eating as something we can enjoy and actually pay attention to instead of you know flipping through our phone on tick tock while we’re you know chowing down dinner there’s specifically a lot of these meal kits that are floating around and i’ve seen them for years and i have never bought into them because i was very concerned about the environmental impact and that’s when green chef showed up and no it’s not a literal green chef that pops out of a box and cooks you dinner and no it’s not a restaurant that you order from doordash it’s an actual box that comes to your house in plastic neutral packaging that is a usda certified organic company and their whole thing is making eating well responsible recyclable and it makes it healthier and less expensive most of the meals are between six and eight dollars and again i’m a big girl i’m six feet tall i got a big tummy i can eat but i actually find that if i take a day out of the week to kind of cook and prepare a meal from green chef i can actually save the leftovers for the next day or for a boxed lunch or for something else later because the portions are actually halfway decent unlike the measly amount of sesame ginger broccolini that the veggie grill tries to sell to me like that doesn’t even count as an appetizer like that is a morsel and you’re charging me eight dollars for it does taste good though of course as a vegan myself i did subscribe to the plant-powered meal kit but they do have others for other dietary choices and that does include things like paleo like keto and like balanced living and a lot of people are shocked like as a vegan when i talk about keto or when i talk about paleo one of my best friends victor nla has been keto for the last three or four years now and although i don’t eat his butter balls that he makes in his fridge i don’t judge him for doing that and again as a background as a nutritionist and as someone who has studied sports medicine in college i understand that people have different choices people have different needs people have different preferences and that bodies do need different things again it’s really just all about balance and you know if you don’t judge me for eating my broccolini sprouts i’m not here to judge you for what you put in your mouth but if you do want to have a conversation around nitrates around medium chain triglycerides or polyunsaturated fatty acids come talk to me i am more than willing to engage in that conversation you just gotta ask the other thing that i appreciate about green chef is that everything is pre-measured and a lot of things are pre-chopped and again they come with these like recipe pages or these step-by-step instructions that are literally like an aesthetic blogger version of building an ikea meal kit that’s what it would be ikea meal kit with like instagram blogger aesthetic put together and it actually makes it quite easy to follow even for someone like me who can’t build ikea furniture they do also choose ingredients seasonally and the science behind this is that obviously in different seasons different fruits vegetables or grains or things will grow and be in season and when we eat along with those seasons making sure that we have a balanced plate each time we’re going to get really good nutrient combinations we’re going to get the peak freshness we’re going to get higher amounts of antioxidants of vitamins of minerals of nutrients that are in that soil that then gets absorbed that food and then you know absorbed into the linings of our intestines and then circulated through the hepatic portal vein up into the rest of our bodies where we can do things like build collagen or store sugars in our liver or muscle tissues or just fuel our brain power to be skin intellectuals and learn new miraculous things about the human body on the internet and again these meal kits for me have been something that i’ve always wanted to try but never been able to do because i wasn’t okay with the eco footprint that they left but green chef offsets 100 of their carbon emissions and plastic they use a lot of cardboard recycling packaging and they make everything as sustainable as possible and their whole thing is keeping it green not only when it comes to the veggies but also when it comes to our carbon footprints i know that it’s impossible to be perfect but i want to try my best and it is i believe the most sustainable meal kit available which is why you know there’s finally an option for me it’s vegan it’s sustainable it’s tasty it’s cheap it’s all of the things that i am and i’m so happy about it and it’s pre-planned so i can do these things in 30 to 45 minutes and have a good time with my friends or my cats or whoever it is that i’m cooking with and i don’t have to take you know five to ten hours out of my week to peruse the grocery store avoiding other people and like covered bombs who choose not to wear masks you know and try to buy all of this stuff in bulk take it home put it in the fridge chop it up try not to burn it when i’m sauteing it on the stove cooking can be stressful sometimes if you do want to try it you can use eat your greens 80 that gets you 80 off and your first month of free shipping instead of going out challenge yourself to making a delicious and nutritious dinner within the confines of your own kitchen and again if you’d like to use that code it is there for you i want to make it clear that i do not earn money or kickbacks off of this code that is not how it works green chef is sponsoring this content but that’s completely separate to this so if you want to use this i get no benefit and it’s literally there for you if it’s something you want to try and if you’d like the discount time for me to head back upstairs and take off this makeup i took the lashes off my lipsticks looking kind of crazy so it’s about time and so to remove my makeup i’m using the aqua bomb makeup removing cleansing balm by belief i’ve talked about this on my channel before literally it’s almost gone because i’ve been double cleansing almost every day and using this to remove my makeup and so i usually get like a pretty good chunk i love the texture of this it’s just very like velvety and creamy and just kind of use it to remove my makeup it does look like a very velvety aqua balm but girl that was not a little bit that was a whole scoop that was like a toddler fistful that is a lot of product and again a lot of people who talk about skincare don’t necessarily know what it feels like to wear a full face of makeup if you are wearing a full face of makeup it is hard to get that stuff off you are going to need an oil you are going to need a cleansing balm you are going to need something thick so i’m glad that she’s using something that works for her and again double cleansing fantastic especially to remove thick makeup or to remove sunscreen double cleansing is always a good idea but again if you wear super light makeup or if you don’t wear makeup you might not need to double cleanse but we’ve actually done a video already talking about how your skincare routine and how you cleanse your skin should change along with what type of makeup you’re wearing if you haven’t seen that help yourself this specific product is 38 and if she were using like a scoop and being able to dissolve all her makeup that’s fine but she had to use a whole fistful that would not be worth 38 like that would last like a week a full face makeup if you’re taking that amount it’s got some good ingredients but the main ones are subtle excellent ethanoate we have caprylic triglycerides some pegs um polyethylene again these are great but they’re not necessarily the best at removing makeup um the actual oils in here that might remove makeup are lemon peel oil we have orange oil we have bergamot we have spearmint these could actually be pretty irritating to the skin if you have sensitive skin i wouldn’t use this there are some other cleansing bombs such as the hamish all clean bomb for 14 or the inky list oil and water double cleanser um even the glow recipe papaya one would be way better than this in my personal opinion and for thirty four dollars that’s expensive their skincare products are just amazing at hydrating the skin i’m actually doing a long-term partnership with believe and so that’s why i was really excited when they reached out because once i tried the products i just knew that the products were just really really good the brand actually originated in korea and their products were created by combining herbal traditions and modern science and what i love is that they’re super transparent about what is exactly in their products so there’s no parabens sulfates synthetic dyes synthetic fragrances basically anything that’s just gonna like really irritate your skin and break you out full stop so first off get that bread get that head then belief because i love that this is an authentic partnership for her that she loves the products and they work well for her as i watch her rub and emulsify this it’s actually breaking up her cosmetics really really well the one thing are these natural claims saying that they’re paraben free sulfate free i know that consumers want that but there’s a lot of marketing around these claims and there’s a lot of science to back up the safety of these things and specifically she said that there’s nothing in here that’s going to cause irritation or allergies dude that cleansing bomb had bergamot that had lime it had orange those are some of the most sensitizing ingredients because they are essential oils but they’re also used as fragrancing ingredients and again they’re okay for many people but to say that they’re completely safe for sensitive skin and won’t cause irritation bergamot oil particularly is one of the most sensitizing and it’s really only used as fragrancing ingredients there’s not much you know that’s actually there for benefit of the skin um so i would agree to disagree but again that is nothing against her that is me talking about that line and that brand and why this specific product is not something that i personally would recommend but again it looks great on her her skin is not reacting negatively to it and obviously her face is glowing so it’s working out well now that i got all the makeup off i’m gonna go in with the aqua bomb jelly cleanser it definitely for sure has like a jelly consistency by the way all of the belief products have this really nice scent i don’t even know how to describe it it’s almost like a very fresh light watery scent so i’m just washing my face with the cleanser oh all right so again this is wonderful skincare is self-care and for her the scent is a huge thing and i think that that’s why this line is probably so great for her because her skin is not sensitive to it and she really enjoys the sensorial experience this jelly bomb cleanser also has some great ingredients it’s only 28 bucks which is not bad um this is super cool it says it’s a jelly to foam cleanser with explosive bursts of hydration which actually seems cool and again if you’re okay with the scents and the fragrance you’ll probably love this this looks like a good cleanser the one thing that she did is that she used a clarisonic did you know that as of now clarisonic has gone out of business and it’s again because a lot of their brushes are stripping a little bit too stripping to be used every single day and even though they revolutionized the skincare industry 10 years ago a lot can happen in 10 years we’ve also done a video on the downfall of clarsonic and why they’re trying to blame kovid but it is not kovid’s fault that they’re not selling products and if you want to know all about that it’s right here open it in a new tab but again this tells me that she has very resilient skin if she’s doing this every single day i would be a little bit worried about over exfoliation but also like look at her pores they are flawless like this is not causing scratches in her skin because i don’t see any irritation i don’t see anything wrong and um her skin literally looks like glass like it looks like she’s still wearing makeup and if i didn’t just see her remove it i wouldn’t know better um so this also goes to show that everyone’s skin is different some people have thicker skin some people have more tolerant skin and obviously what works for one person doesn’t work for another but that’s why we have these conversations so we can break down the skin science and so that you can understand the whole context of all of these things so i’m going to hop in the shower real quick every time i do a hairstyle like this where i’m using a lot of gel i just really don’t like to keep it in for too too long and so i’m using this shampoo just to really break up all that gel getting a really gentle hydrating shampoo and then i’m also going in with this maui moisture hair mask and just applying this all over my hair and using my wide tooth comb just to really like get the product in and after rinsing out my mask i’m just going to finish all my regular shower stuff i actually don’t know either of these products but as a curly girl myself i understand the struggle when it comes to hydrating curly hair obviously her hair type is still very different than mine but when we talk about the actual structure of the hair think about it a curly strand of hair is exposed to the sun the heat the elements on multiple edges whereas straight hair doesn’t have all that kink in it and this can actually cause more breakage in curly hair it can cause more dryness in curly hair and it can overall cause a little bit more weakness which is why a lot of people like myself and like lissette who do have curly hair um we love that hydration also our scalp naturally creates oil right our hair has oil it’s supposed to go all the way down the hair shaft and nourish it when you have straight hair combing and brushing can really help to do that but when you have curly hair that oil can’t get down it kind of stops like right here and that’s why at least for me i have a super oily scalp but all of my ends are super brittle and dry and that’s why us curly girls need to do a bit of clarifying a lot of shampooing up here but we need to do a lot of hydration down here i’m using the aqua bomb hydrating toner from belief so i’m just going to apply this on a cotton pad and just sweep this all over my face it helps to bring that moisture back into the skin it also helps to hydrate and soothe it’s not gonna be one of those irritating toners that like burn and like dry out your skin i love that she’s applying her toner fresh out of the shower ideally once you get out of the shower you really want to apply something like a toner or your moisturizer while your skin is still damp you don’t want to splash water on your skin and get it wet just to hydrate it but you know showering especially in the steam or in that heat it can cause a bit of trans epidermal water loss or us losing water and hydration transiently or trans across the epidermis or the top of our skin and if you do apply products right when you get out of the shower you can kind of help to stop that from happening and give that skin a little bit of the moisture back in where it needs to be this aqua bomb is also at a decent price it’s 28 and she said that it’s not drying or stripping the first ingredient is water the second is glycerin that is a humectant very non-drying very non-stripping however the third ingredient is denatured alcohol very drying and very stripping now this is why it’s important to turn and learn your ingredients but also you can’t tell everything from an ingredients list there’s the formulation process there’s the formula itself there’s the other products you use it with she says that it’s non-drying does she have resilient skin and is this super drying to most people or is there really such a small amount of alcohol in here that it’s just being used to evaporate off or as a penetration enhancer um and it really is a hydrating formula i don’t know based on just the ingredients list i would be worried but again based on her personal experience and based on what other people in the comments are saying it actually seems to be more hydrating and this is one of those moments where turning and learning the ingredients list isn’t enough and you gotta go in and you gotta touch this one um for 28 dollars i wouldn’t buy this personally but at least they’re not trying to royally rip us off and you know what is that james welsh that is james welsh in the thumbnail oh my god i didn’t know that james welsh uses this product i must have missed that post notification um and james welsh is like me he also has oily skin but he loves some good hydration and he knows what he’s talking about um so if he likes it it’s probably hydrating what a pleasant surprise to see his face here hello my name is james welsh and i want to share my love for hydrating the skin and my love for the belief that’s not the video we’re watching stop being distracted cassandra i’m using their aqua bomb and so now i’m using the moisturizing bomb and so the difference between the two is i feel like the aqua bomb is kind of like a lighter consistency still really hydrating but i feel like the moisturizing balm just like is a little bit thicker so this is the aqua balm which is kind of like a gel to cream moisturizer and it’s pretty light but it gives like a really good amount of hydration to the skin like you can literally see my hand is glowing right now when she’s showing the visuals and applying this to the skin and talking about how it’s like a cream to like a water gel it almost reminds me of the new fenty skin launch that i had so much trouble with um i reviewed rayanna’s new moisturizer and i have some thoughts about it but this actually reminds me of that we’ve got glycerin we’ve got methyl trimethocone we do have denatured alcohol but i have a feeling this is a penetration enhancer and that’s what turns it literally from like a cream into like this water texturey feel because it kind of evaporates off and allows things to blend in this seems like a really good moisturizer as long as you are not sensitive to fragrance or two plant extracts and actually if they’re cruelty free i would spend my money on this this actually looks like a decent moisturizer looks very spreadable as well spreadable is that better than moist some people don’t like the word moist it’s spreadable then there you go but what i also love is that they actually have an aloe vera version of the aqua bomb which just helps to like calm the skin and soothe it because aloe vera has like a lot of hydrating properties wow so first off i didn’t know that they had an aloe vera version and yes we’ve also done a video on aloe vera and aloe vera causing cancer because yes aloe vera is listed on california’s prop 65 list i believe and it is a known carcinogen or cancer causing however it’s still safe to use in skincare why is that what’s going on again this is why you have to read the full medical paper you have to look at the full context or you have to trust someone like a doctor a dermatologist a skincare expert to do it for you because it is still safe to use in skincare and it is amazing in skincare alawine skincare removes the aloe latex and if you want to learn about all of the things that are actually in aloe vera there’s a video so click it open it in a new tab save it to your watch later playlist and find out about why aloe can cause cancer but in what situations and why it’s still safe to use in skincare and what that all means for you you’re welcome the moisturizing balm is actually clinically proven to retain moisture for up to 26 hours which is literally crazy and so especially with like the changing seasons i feel like it’s the perfect time to kind of like up your moisturizer and really like get that moisture that you need so this is great and it looks like it’s working phenomenally for her 26 hours is a lot but i believe that it is possible i don’t know if it’s cruelty free but if you wanted a good cruelty-free alternative murad has one that is phenomenal it’s also kind of like this watery texture but the murad one i think lasts for either three days or five days i think the claim was like five days but for me it lasted like three um that is a really good option that i would recommend over this but also it depends on your price point it depends on the cruelty-free stance of the brand it depends on your skin type what you’re looking for all that good stuff and obviously this is making her skin look amazing it looks like she put like a laminate on it you know what i mean like her face looks laminated like how are your pores so good share i like to apply a lot to my neck because i’ve been noticing i have like these lines on my neck that are just and to completely finish off the skincare we can’t forget the under eye and so i’m using the moisturizing eye balm this has literally become my favorite under eye cream because you only need like barely any and then it just moisturizes the under eye and i like to put it on my eyelid as well i get that she likes it if she likes it keep using it she knows her stuff and she deserves to feel good because skincare is self-care however eye creams are overpriced moisturizers this aloe vera moisturizer would do just as well if not better around this eye area because it’s lightweight it blends in well she knows that her face likes it also um if you’re applying an eye cream i wouldn’t apply it over your moisturizer i just saw her moisturize her entire face a moisturizer is kind of like an occlusive barrier it locks all of your skincare and your hydration into your face that’s going to have a hard time penetrating it’s not going to do much maybe here on the eyelids where she didn’t apply the moisturizer but ideally the way that you actually put an eye cream into your routine is after your toner and before your serum um but again you know my stamps on eye creams they are overpriced moisturizers yes there is a video on that too you need to watch this before spending another penny on an eye cream so you can save your money and spend it wisely um yeah this i’m glad it works for her but i would not do this and i do not recommend your eyes and your neck are like really really sensitive so you really want to make sure that you’re moisturizing that when we look at this eye bomb it is 48 for a fraction of the amount this is why eye creams piss me off i know marketing i know the beauty business and i see what you are doing belief and i don’t believe in it okay angry consumer has entered the room when we look at the ingredients this is literally a moisturizer i love that we have ceramides in it but you can also get ceramides in your moisturizer willow bark extract this is literally a moisturizer that they have over packaged you know what before i start yelling and damage my vocal cords i’m just gonna stop right here belief also has a sleeping mask which i really like to use whenever i just need like that really intense moisture overnight it’s a mask that you apply on you go to sleep and it basically just locks in that moisture and that hydration oh it does look like jello at first i cringed when i saw this because sleeping masks are another marketer ploy basically a sleeping mask is an extended moisturizer it’s not a traditional face mask that you put on and you rinse off it’s basically a moisturizer that goes over your moisturizer i love the avocado sleeping mask from glow recipe that’s a great one there are a few others that i would recommend however a sleeping mask don’t be confused it’s not a mask it’s an extended long wear moisturizer and you wear it overnight and you’ll wake up with it in the morning this one does look like a good one for 34 it is decent it’s got some glycerin some copolymers again it has this fragrance blend that is probably proprietary to their brand and it has jojoba seed oil which is one of my favorite oils um it is overpriced for what it is but it does have turmeric in there and it does seem like a decent product but don’t be confused you could use this over a moisturizer or in place of a moisturizer so do what makes you happy remember that skincare is self-care and you know like lissette treat your epidermis right i love the way that my skin is feeling right now it just feels so moisturized and just like hydrated and just glowing how is her skin so perfect like i don’t think it’s these products it’s probably her genetics or something else that she’s doing maybe she’s getting treatments i don’t know but i’m just like can i just like non-creepily rub my cheek up against yours like can we transfer some of that laminate some of that luminance you’ve got going on like is that how skin works please like i’m desperate at this point and now i’m just playing with it it’s so tiny oh my god guys my heart’s going to explode i literally have a heart monitor it’s going to explode asking for me to better my heart i love animals could we just have an entire video like a 30 minute stream of lissette and paris just playing with feathers and running around and being cute and fluffy and adorable subscriber request thank you so lisette then takes us through her tooth brushing through her natural curly hair routine she actually shares a little bit about her relationship and some of the stuff that she does on her computer before bed but i’ve left it out of this video so that you can go show her channel some love and check it out there’s a lot of good nuggets and more kitten footage in her video so i’ve left it

that really works for her for her skin and for her lifestyle she obviously loves it and her face literally looks like laminated glass like if you could even be more shiny and poreless like no wonder her foundation and makeup tutorials always look so good because she has such a smooth canvas and again for people like me with acne scars for the sisters our assists our craters our nooks and crannies don’t make us any less worthwhile or any less beautiful it’s just a different texture that we can love and respect equally i’m also happy that we got to partner with green chef on this video again you know that i’m huge about putting my money where my morals are um i also don’t talk a lot about diet nutrition on this channel i used to a couple years ago but i don’t anymore you know but like you have to have good skincare to have a good makeup application you have to treat your body right in order to have and create and produce new good skin cells so if you ever want to talk more about that
