hey guys and welcome back to my channel thanks for tuning in today we’re going to talk about must-have skincare ingredients and these are ingredients that will truly transform your skin and if you’re looking to build a anti-aging skincare routine then these are ingredients you really really want to include in your routine now i kind of started making ingredient spotlight videos where i’m talking about one specific ingredient and sharing with you my favorite products with that ingredient so i thought before i continue with that little series of my favorites of each ingredient i’m going to share with you the must-have ingredients so if you’re new to skincare new to building a skincare routine then i hope this video will help you out because i get asked that question a lot on what are the must-have ingredients you know there’s so many ingredients out there there’s always like new ingredients that are popping up and all types of marketing and all that stuff but when it comes down to it these are the tried and true ingredients that will truly transform your skin turn back the hands of time and just give you a healthier younger and a more refreshed complexion so i’m going to share those with you and now let’s get started so before i get started i’ll give you guys a quick little way to just remember these ingredients and skin medica allergan actually came up with this and it is grass so you have your growth factors you have your retinoids you have your antioxidants you have your sunscreens and you have your specialty products those are how you build a skincare routine an effective skincare routine for anti-aging and just you know beautiful healthy skin so let’s start out with g g is for growth factors and like i’ve shared with you guys so many times we need a growth factor product in our skincare routine now i did a favorites on vitamin c and i will continue to do that series i’ll do my favorites on growth factors and i’ll do my favorites on kind of all of these that we’re talking about today so growth factors are a naturally occurring protein in our skin and as we get older we start depleting on growth factors we don’t naturally make as many growth factors as when we were young and growth factors are so important for that collagen and elastin in our skin and again that’s why we kind of lose those things as we get older it’s all due to growth factors so we really really want to be using a growth factor product on our skin every single day growth factors get into our skin cells and they actually signal between each other to stimulate that collagen to stimulate elastin in your skin to rebuild damaged skin cells they’re so beneficial and i can tell you if you apply a growth factor product if you are consistent using a growth factor product you will see big changes with your skin so something like this this is the neocutis bioserum firm this is a growth factor product i’ve shared this with you in multiple videos i showed how i use this in my am skincare routine this is loaded with multiple different growth factors this also has peptides in it as well but it’s those growth factors growth factors are a must and like i said i will do a whole video on my favorite growth factor products okay so that is our must-have growth factors let’s move on to r the next must-have ingredient is your retinoids and retinoids are a vitamin a so you need vitamin a in your skincare routine now your vitamin a can be from a retinol from a retinal diet product from a retin-a there’s multiple different types of vitamin a products out there but it is that necessary ingredient that you really need to be using in your skincare routine vitamin a is going to help with the wrinkles it’s going to help with photo damage to your skin it’s going to help with skin texture it will also help to treat acne and pores it is just a must have ingredients you guys know that i personally love retinaldehyde the osmosis renu is just something that i have used for years there’s three different levels of the retinaldehyde serum as well um as it is actually with most vitamin a’s as you guys are probably aware as with your retinaes there’s different levels of you know strength same with the osmosis retinaldehyde serums there is the calm which is the lowest the correct which is the middle and then the renu which is the highest so when you’re using a vitamin a product and you’re new to using a vitamin a it’s always best to start with a lower strength and work your way up if you are not familiar with using a vitamin a at first now something like the osmosis retinaldehyde serum though are more gentle on your skin they do not affect your skin barrier as a retin-a does that’s why i love this so much there’s no redness of or peeling no inflammation the thing that i love about osmosis again is because they don’t believe in creating that inflammation to your skin everything about osmosis is non-inflammation because inflammation to your skin is going to equal skin aging inflammation ages your skin so we want to do everything to decrease inflammation in our skin that is why i love this retinaldehyde serum for my vitamin a because it’s not creating that inflammation it’s gentle it is very effective at you know building that collagen and elasticity in my skin again and just give me an overall more even toned complexion also this plumps your skin too so i love my retinaldehydes but again vitamin a no matter what type of vitamin a you choose is a must all right so moving on to the next must-have ingredient we are now on a and a stands for antioxidants and as you guys know if you are familiar with my channel at all i talk about vitamin cs and antioxidants all the time because it is truly a must they do so much for our skin and just anti-aging in general i can’t even imagine not having a vitamin c product in my daily routine so not only has vitamin c been proven to stimulate that collagen and elastin that we need in our skin but it also fights free radicals and free radicals are just attacking our skin every single day whether it’s pollution or from the sun there’s always those free radicals that are attacking our skin and aging our skin free radicals definitely cause premature aging so to fight off those free radicals and protect our skin daily we need those vitamin c antioxidant products because not only do they protect our skin but they are going to stimulate collagen and elastin in our skin as well they’ve been proven to do so so they are anti-aging all around you guys know one of my favorite vitamin c’s is the truth treatment the transdermal c serum now i just did a full favorite vitamin c product video so if you do not see that video i will link that video down below for you guys as well because like i said i will go throughout my ingredients here and i will do the best of each of these ingredients but i did do my vitamin c products already so look for that video if you’re looking for an amazing amazing vitamin c because i talk about all my favorites that i’ve tried and used for ever now and i love them so again vitamin c antioxidants another must alright so we did the g we did the r we did the a now we’re on to s s is for sunscreen and you guys all know sunscreen is a staple it’s a must in your skincare routine you need to wear a sunscreen every single day whether it’s raining whether it’s snowing whether it’s completely cloudy outside those rays are getting to your skin no matter what so you need to get in the habit of putting an spf on every single day no matter what before you walk out of your house whether you’re sitting inside your house i mean what am i talking there’s days i don’t leave my house and i still put my spf on everywhere so spf is a must you need to protect your skin from you know all the uva rays uvb rays a lot of the sunscreens today have blue light protection and we’re all on our phones and computer screens and guess what those are aging us those are aging our skin so blue light protection is amazing as well and we need our spfs now you guys know this is my favorite spf combination right here now you don’t have to be like me and mix your spfs but that’s just what i do because i really don’t wear foundation i have no foundation on my skin today at all the only thing i have on are my spfs and i mix together the revision the intellishade true physical and this is that three in one it’s a tinted moisturizer it is going to correct and even out your skin tone um it does give you that moisture and hydration to your skin as well and it is your mineral spf of 45 as well and then i love mixing it with the color science this is the sun forgettable total protection face shield in the shade bronze and i mix these two together because one they’re both mineral sunscreens you can mix and match mineral sunscreens like i said i use them as foundation so i kind of create my own little foundation mix with these two um this also has blue light protection in the color science so i love that added bonus as well this comes out in like a bronze tint so that’s why i love to mix these two together it just creates like the most perfect tone for my skin the most perfect coverage and i don’t have to wear a foundation not wearing a foundation is so awesome shaves time off of me getting out the door plus not having to wear a foundation is so healthy for your skin just covering up your skin every day with makeup is just not the best for your skin it’s not going to give you the most healthiest skin so if you can just get away with using your spf as a foundation as well i’m telling you i’ve seen improvements in my skin by doing that and like i said this is all i have on my skin today is these two in combination with each other right here so i love that you can mix and match you know different mineral spf’s to create the customized look for you there is a bronze one that is what this one is there’s the color science face shield in glow which just gives you the most beautiful glow there is just a normal one that just kind of soaks right into your skin there’s no glow or bronze or anything to it i love to mix these two together and it gives me the no foundation look plus the spf that you need and i’m telling you guys no matter if you mix and match your spf like i do no matter if you put your spf under makeup no matter what you want to do spf every day okay we’re on to our second s in the word grass now and that stands for specialty products now this is going to be different for everybody because everybody might need to use something a little bit different whether you have acne whether you have hyperpigmentation or age spots or pigmented skin whether you want to exfoliate your skin more there’s always something that you are looking to target with your skin that maybe somebody else isn’t so this kind of just brings in the whole you know individualized skincare portion of your routine but especially product is great for addressing like your special skincare concerns so something like glycolic acid and i just did a whole instagram post on glycolic acid because i love incorporating glycolic acid into my routine glycolic acid is so amazing for your skin it’s so amazing for anti-aging and i was talking about the sunitas glyco skin toners this is a glycolic acid toner and then the obagi expert on forte is an amazing exfoliating lotion this is glycolic acid and lactic acid and this is so amazing at night with your vitamin a it’s like unbelievable for your skin so glycolic acid is kind of like just an example of like a specialty type of product something for exfoliating you can also use hydrators and maybe you need to add a hydrator to your regimen something like the truth treatments hyaluronic acid or the skin medica ha5 these are amazing hydrators that are going to really deeply hydrate your skin and hydrators are not the same as a moisturizer hydrators are so important because they actually get deep deep into the skin and hydrate from the inside out moisturizers really sit on the skin and just kind of moisturize the top layer of your skin so hydrators are super important if you have really dry skin if you have dehydrated skin something with you know the hydration hyaluronic acid is going to be a must for you another type of specialty product if you have like hyperpigmentation like i said or dark spots or age spots something like these right here are going to do wonders for your skincare and just adding this into your routine as well the osmosis rescue and i actually did an instagram post just on this as well this is like the most all-in-one miracle product that ever was like this is like an insane insane product this has a patented ingredient in it called trioxaline and it literally does everything but if you have pigmented hyperpigmentation skin this deeply changes your skin what this is is an epidural repair serum so this really gets deep into your skin and repairs damaged skin this also is amazing for pores and it really really helps with large pores it truly is going to give you a more healthy just younger skin this knocks out inflammation in your skin and again like i said which is one of the main reasons i love the osmosis lime is it knocks out inflammation in your skin it does not give you inflammation so there’s a lot of really harsh really just aggressive skincare lines out there that are creating inflammation in your skin and inflammation is going to give you more aging skin inflammation equals skin aging so i love this because it knocks out inflammation in your skin if you have rosacea if you have redness to your skin this is going to take that away because again it’s knocking down that inflammation it is just like you’re all in one amazing product whether you have hyperpigmentation blemishes acne large pores rosacea i’m telling you this is an amazing product so this is just another great kind of product to add in to your routine if you have any of those issues also if you have hyperpigmentation or sun damage this is another really great product this is the pca skin the vitamin b3 brightening serum this is loaded with a potent amount of niacinamide niacinamide is so great for your skin if you have those pigmented skin issues it’s also great for redness as well it’s also great for pores as well so if you like niacinamide this is a really great product to add into your routine as well so i hope that makes sense again just remember your routine has to be structured around grass so that is your growth factors that’s your retinoids your antioxidants your spfs and your specialty products so that’s it i hope you guys enjoyed i hope that makes sense and i hope that helps you out like i said i get so many questions on how to build a skincare routine and what ingredients are must-haves and these are all must-have ingredients so i will list all these products that i mentioned down below for you guys as well but i will also be doing my best of each of these ingredients as well so look for those videos coming up thank you guys so much for hanging out and watching i love you all so much and i will see you in my next video bye
