It’s interesting that she clearly uses botox or some injectable facial augmentation to “keep young” as she sells anti-aging products to the masses. Does she not use her own, very expensive, products or winkles and the like cannot be “fixed” by over-the-counter products. Interesting.

You can choose natural or chemical based suncreens.
Sunscreen’s containing zinc oxide are mineral based & natural, so they reflect sunlight unlike chemical based sunscreens.
If you choose high factor sun screens, they contain more chemicals, but dont necessarily give you more protection, they just allow you to stay longer in the sun
she is right!exfoliation is sooo important if u want to keep ure skin young and glowing,micro dermabrasion is a also good,deeper treatment for older skins wanting to rejuvinate.
@softlyserenademe and @NSIvanica:
BB stands for Blemish Balm. They are very popular in Asia, especially Japan and Korea. It is a combined blemish fighting formula and usually a tinted moisturizer as well.
I bought one when I was in China (in Koreatown) but am not that impressed. It is very drying (usually, Asian skin is thicker and tends to be more oily) and the color is very, very pale.
It’s very popular in asia I can tell you that . It’s foundation but with healing properties and some have SPF. BB stands for blemish balm. So it helps your skin while covering Theres lots of info if you go on google about it. I don’t want to give a wall of text LOL
Celebrity skin care is now becoming more personal and customized. There are 6 primary Genes that affect the health of your skin and issues like photo-aging, wrinkles, irritation, and more. Once assessed your skin should get the proper nourishment that is different from your oily skinned Aunt or dry skinned brother. Get skin care made specifically for you.
yea i heard about bb cream a lot…i didn’t really look at what it was for though but a lot of the idols / celebrities are talking about it….do they sell it in America?
hyalluronic acid – is chicken cartildge, usually found if boiling chicken and the gel floats on top – i.e. hyalluronic acid turns to gel or jello so its not good to wear under makeup.
dark skin popele need to protect their skin from the sun as well. no one is safe from the sun especially since the Ozon layer is getting thinner and thinner.

morons, sunscreen is not natural, and the sun is good for you, instead of chemicals wear a hat, sunglasses and sun protective clothing

Does exfoliating really help to reduce your pore size?

HA! you want to know their skin care secrets Air brushes and PhotoShop lol
I haven’t tried the scrub mentioned in the video but I too think using a gentle exfoliant regularly is key. I love the organic one by Votre Vu.
Now Kate, do you mind bringing the prices down to consumer level?!

Some of those tips are good, but others are questionable. Especially the fruits which they use.
