How To Feel More Confident When You’re Not Wearing Makeup

uh wanted to share with you how to feel more confident when you're not wearing makeup so first for me is i typically wear glasses when i'm not when i'm just like schlubbing it and so number one for me is putting in my contacts you can like see my face it just instantly makes me feel like less of a schlub um no shade tell my glasses where is out there next up is just because you're not wearing makeup doesn't mean that you have to like stay in your pajamas or wear schlubby clothes i don't know why i keep using the word lovey uh put something cute on i don't know why but i was like an all or nothing kind of person where like if i was looking cute then i was looking like real cute if i was wearing makeup then i was like in i don't know like sweats and just living in it you know this top is from intermurata emily ratakowski's line i love it it's so cute and it's super comfortable and also for hot weather breathable next up is hydration skin care routine uh i feel like we all can agree that when our skin is looking its best we feel our best especially like rocking no makeup if you have an insecurity as in acne or rosacea or large pores um regardless of those things when your skin is well hydrated your skin look you're like emulating health okay when you have like a beautiful natural glow so first up is moisturizer my favorite is clean it's hydra by aven uh so i'm gonna apply that because my skin is like begging for it right now if you do have certain skin insecurities for instance acne rosacea all that stuff i highly recommend going to a dermatologist um that's how i was able to clear up my skin and man that really changes the game you know but if you don't have access to a dermatologist because it is really expensive or it can be if you don't have insurance curology is a really good option this isn't sponsored i did work with them like a while back um i was on i used the curology treatment for like a year and i saw a vast improvement so if you don't have access to a dermatologist give that a shot and if even that is too expensive for you i'm going to link down some dermatologists that are really great resources for like how to build your own like skincare routine around your skin type sticking with hydration lips bro lips when my lip my lips are so dry right now when they're dry it's just like the worst so honestly any lip balm for daytime i love using the where'd it go daytime i love using the aquaphor lip protectant or protect yeah lip protectant repair and protects it has spf 30 which is amazing which brings me to my next skincare topic which is sunscreen but before i get to that let me just the one that i really love is auric the oracle plush ritual plush ritual i'm gonna open up a fresh one because it has it's essentially just like a lip balm but it has like a such a beautiful color and it just makes me feel a little bit better okay already so much better so sunscreen you will be amazed if you are not regularly wearing sunscreen when you start to wear it regularly the difference it makes in your skin in the overall tone of your skin in the overall texture of your skin i understand it can be really hard to find a sunscreen that like works for your skin type that doesn't break you out that doesn't smell bad make you greasy all those things i'm going to link my actually actually four favorite sunscreens for different skin types and also different needs um but i will say that my go-to was the elta md uv clear and when i started using that i saw an instant difference in texture tone and everything and it's also going to protect you from you know things like skin cancer and also premature aging so that is an amazing step next up for me if we're continuing down this hydration path is my hair when my hair looks dry it's kind of the same as like when my skin looks dry it just makes me feel like i don't know crusty so one of my favorite things to do is use lay right you can get it on amazon i think that's usually where i usually just steal my boyfriends it's really nice though it's such a nice formula and it also um smells like vanilla and i'll add like a drop of squalene oil squishy alien squarely and oil into it so i use the one from bioscience um and i obviously have a pixie so i like to just like kind of run it i'll mix those together and then use my fingertips to kind of like lay my hair in sections and just adding the oil like you don't need a lot of it but just adding a little bit of it just makes your hair look like a little more healthy it's like using a leave-in conditioner or something okay next up jewelry accessories uh you don't have to not wear them if you're like not wearing makeup like i said it's not all or nothing there is an in between there uh and i realized how much like wearing jewelry makes me feel just like more like glam when i'm not wearing any makeup makeup at all even if i'm wearing sweats like just weird accessorizing i don't know if i have like any go-to's i'm actually trying to decide these are earrings from misoma which i absolutely love the quality of their stuff is so nice um now this is sponsored just so you guys know yeah i love one earring so much um also necklaces this is is this from the selma i think it is you know i have another one that i got from etsy which is so beautiful just accessories there's something about that like reflection that makes a difference makes you look a little bit more put together okay and then the last thing i don't always do this but just every once in a while like listen i'm short i have a pixie i'm a little androgynous looking sometimes i feel like i can look like a little boy so rather than you know actually wearing makeup or anything like that i'll just use my refer lash curler love this lash curler and i'll just give my lashes a quick curl just give them like a little bit of a lift i don't know how long it lasts but sometimes it just makes me feel like a little more feminine if that's what i'm feeling that day no mascara or anything no clear anything just a little something to give them a lift and this is like if i really really really feel like it uh all right guys and that's it that's what i do when i want to feel like a little more confident when i'm not wearing any makeup which is something that i really enjoy doing a lot especially since i cleared up my skin um one of my favorite things i was talking to my boyfriend about like the differences between l.a and new york we seem to do that a lot i love that you see a lot of people wearing like just dope outfits with like sick accessories with no makeup and like casual hair you know uh it's just like i think it's a vibe and i think it's one that we should embrace so yeah like i wear a lot of makeup because actually i don't really wear that makeup that often to be completely honest with you even though this is a makeup channel so all these things just kind of like help me feel a little bit more confident and comfortable when i'm not wearing ma
