You can buy the foundation. You can buy the primer. You can buy the setting spray.

But if the skin underneath isn't properly prepped… the makeup is going to tell on you. 👀😂

Good makeup starts BEFORE the first brush ever touches your face.

Exfoliation, hydration and, when appropriate, dermaplaning can make a big difference in how smoothly makeup applies and how beautiful it wears.

And no—we're not chasing “perfect” or texture-free skin. Skin is supposed to look like skin. We're simply giving the makeup a better foundation to work with.

That's why I'm so big on skin prep with my clients. I don't just want your makeup to look good when you leave my chair—I want that skin underneath it looking GOOD too.

Swipe through → I'm breaking down a few of my favorite ways to prep your skin for a better makeup application.

And when you're ready to see what good skin prep + professional makeup can do together…

Come sit in my chair. 😉

My nighttime skincare routine is basically: “Okay skin… what are we dealing with tonight?” 😂

Because I don’t do the exact same routine every night.

Sometimes my skin needs hydration. Sometimes it needs exfoliation. Sometimes it needs a little extra attention—and on those nights, I pull out the steamer, my Skin Buddy, serums, DuoLab and make a whole situation out of it. 😩😂

Tonight was one of those nights.

One thing I’ve learned over the years is that skincare doesn’t have to mean using EVERYTHING you own every single night. It’s about paying attention to your skin and giving it what it needs at that moment.

And yes… if there is DuoLab left in those pods, we are using EVERY. LAST. DROP. Face, neck, hands—somebody is getting moisturized. 😂

Healthy-looking skin is always the goal, especially when you want your makeup to sit beautifully.

🎥 Watch my nighttime mini facial from start to finish.

And tell me: Are you a quick cleanse-and-go girl at night, or are you pulling out ALL the skincare tools? 👀

When an AKA energy enters the chat…👀

They said AKA girls are always polished, confident, and know how to make an entrance… and honestly, I’m not here to dispute the allegations. 😂💙💛💗💚

She came with the energy, the confidence, the presence—and of course, the makeup had to match.

Bold? ✔️
Polished? ✔️
High energy? ✔️
Giving “I know I look good” without having to announce it? Yes Ma'am!.

And then she hit me with the, “They ain’t ready” Chile she took me OWT!

But AKA's… y’all can book me too. 💙💛💗💚

This is the Nobl LED Travel Case. It has multiple sections for organizing your products, and the built-in light has 3 different settings.

This case is great for anyone who doesn’t mind carrying a lot of items and wants plenty of room to work with.

But if you’re a minimalist… this might not be the case for you. 😂

I’m all for a good makeup case, but the right one really depends on how you work and how much you actually need to carry.

All in all, this is not a great case for me to travel with. Does anybody know of a smaller, more functional travel case?

✨ What is facial steaming?

Facial steaming uses warm steam to gently soften the skin and loosen oil, dirt, and debris that can become trapped in your pores. It's a great way to prepare your skin before cleansing, exfoliating, or applying your favorite skincare products.

How long should you steam? About 5–10 minutes, 1–2 times per week is ideal for most skin types. If you have very sensitive skin or rosacea, steaming may not be recommended.

Why should you do it?
✔️ Softens sebum and buildup for a deeper cleanse.
✔️ Helps skincare products absorb more effectively.
✔️ Boosts circulation for a healthy-looking glow.
✔️ Creates a relaxing, spa-like self-care experience.

Remember, glowing makeup starts with healthy skin—and healthy skin starts with a consistent skincare routine. ✨

Have you ever added facial steaming to your skincare routine? If not, it's on sale NOW!!
