 Hi guys, it's Monica. I am going to answer a couple of questions that I get asked repeatedly and at the end of this video I'm going to do a giveaway. I'm going to give away some more of that Blink eyelash serum. So if you're interested please stay tuned and if you're not and you're going to leave because I'm going to talk about eyelashes and retin-A or whatever, give me a thumbs up anyways. I truly appreciate every single one of you. So first of all, I have gotten a number of questions regarding my retin-A use. How am I using retin-A? What am I doing to my skin, to my neck? Now I always say that I'm a creature of habit but that said, I listen to my skin. So if I am having a whole lot of reactions, I'm going to lighten it up. I'm going to switch it around a little bit. But usually at night when I come home the first thing I do if I'm going to be home for the evening is I remove all my makeup if I'm not filming. I'm filming, so my makeup is still on. It's the end of the day though. So I usually remove all my makeup and I stop that process early sometimes because a lot of times Jay might be working, he might not be home until 9.30 or something of that nature. So what do I care if I'm walking around with naked skin? So I take all my makeup off, my mascara, the whole nine yards and then I usually tone my skin. And even though I use retin-A, I sometimes, and you're not supposed to do this, so you guys need to just do what works for you. But I actually sometimes use a glycolic toner even on nights that I'm using retin-A, which is a big no-no. But I think my skin is used to it. I think I probably get a tolerance for it. And I really, my glycolic toner currently and has been for quite a while of choice is the Ordinary Glycolic. This is a 7% toning solution and this I have got from the Ordinary. They're very affordable. This tends to sell out quickly. So I was going to look over my little stash. I believe I have a backup. And the other one that I have really, really liked, and this I think Lori from Pride's, the photo was had first talked about this and this is a Korean toner. I'm going to link this product below, Claire's. So anyways, I'll link it below so that you can get the correct name. So I usually put that on my skin. I let it dry. After that, every single night, no matter what, unless I'm going to be dermaroling, I use my Niacinamide. I will put Niacinamide from the Ordinary, especially on my nose. I have huge, huge pores on my nose, on my forehead. So I really, really put the Niacinamide on. I let that soak in. To me, that's a really good thing to soak in. And then at one point, I don't know, half hour, hour, it doesn't matter. It all depends on what I'm doing. I'll go in and I will use my Retin-A. I will say that the majority of the time I'm using my 1% Retin-A. I have it in a gel. I like the gel. When I reorder, I may or may not get the gel. I may go to the cream. I don't know yet. But I am liking the gel. I do buy it over in India. It is very, very affordable for me in my immediate area in New England. The tube that I buy, I should have these out. But the tube that I would buy here would be roughly about $345. If I use GoodRx, I can get this maybe for $80, $89, $90. But the pharmacist said to me, when I go to refill it, I'm going to pay whatever price is going at that point in time. So anyways, I do have the three strengths. I've talked about that before. Probably because I don't pay a whole lot of money for it. I'm pretty generous. I put it all over my face. I avoid the corners of my eyes. Obviously, I don't go really close to my eyes. And I do go right above here. When I'm done that, I will then go in. And this has only been since about February of this year that I've been using this. And I'll go in and I will use it. I will use the Olay Pro Retinol Eyes. I have both the UK version and the US version, as many of you have seen. And I typically will take this and I will just put a little drop and I concentrate it on my deep lines and into the crevices here and then about up here. So I just kind of tap it in a little bit. I don't use a lot of this. And then once that's done, I take my weakest Retin-A, which is the 0.025 percent. And I take my Rose Hip Seed Oil. I love Rose Hip Seed Oil. As much as I love it, I don't use it on my face. I don't know why. And I know many people do and they love it and that's fine. I just don't. But I will take a drop, a globber, more than a pea size, probably two pea sizes, of my Retin-A and the palm of my hand. And then I take a dropper, you know, a couple of drops of this of the Rose Hip Seed Oil and I mix it in. And then I just go all over my neck, down into this area. And I just really cover. And I actually usually do along my hands as well. And then I let all of that sink in and I may do nothing else for the night before I go to bed. I'm going to be putting, and I've used this consistently now. I want to say since November of 2016, I use a Bee Van'em Cream. Again, this is just what I do. I've noticed the nights that I don't use this, that I wake up, my skin is not as nice as the nights when I do use this. So it says it's a Bee Van'em Face Mask. And this is the one I buy at TJ Maxx. I just put it all over my face. And I let that just dry overnight. And I go to bed. And then when I wake up in the morning, my skin is actually pretty moist, moist. So that's my nighttime routine. It has been somewhat the same for a long time. I really, really like it. Now, the next question I get asked is, since I've been using the OLAIs, what am I doing with the Nivea? Nivea, Nivea, Nivea, whatever? What am I doing with this? So once a week, I derma roll my face. I've been doing that for quite a while. Twice a week, if possible, I derma roll my hair. I don't always do it twice a week. On the night that I derma roll my face, I take the Nivea and I put a very little bit, just a little tiny drop, whoops, came out too far. I just put a little tiny drop and I go onto the fat, the round little fat pockets of my eyes. Above. I just put a dab on there. I don't put a whole lot on there. It doesn't impact, it doesn't go near the OLA because I never put the OLA there. And I don't really use this anywhere else. I've tried to use it on my gels and I always forget it. I've never noticed a difference. I think with the fat pockets, I think they're as good as they're going to get. So dropping down to using this once a week is fine by me. I never had a reaction from any of this. I never got any dryness. And the same thing with the OLA. You know, I haven't, other than an initial, when I first started using it, I could see a little bit of flakies. I haven't had any of that since that point in time. So that's pretty well my nighttime routine. The OLA works well every single night and one night a week when I do the Nivea, it doesn't impact it. Again, then I will also use my eyelash serum and I've been using the Blink and the thing with the Blink is you've got to make sure just like CareProst and the other product, you're not cleaning your lashes off with an oily cleanser. It's going to be oil free. So that said, I'm doing a giveaway for the Blink. This is going to be open internationally and if you are interested in going for the Blink, except for Sweet Thang.
