Night face washing routine....sweet dream youthful skin!

goes a little somethin' like this....
me. hair in ponytail. rendezvous with the warm water and my fav skin cleanser and moisturizer....

I was asked like 2 hundred years ago, ok, maybe just like 2 years ago...what my nightly face washing routine is..you know, cleanser, toner, moisturizer.....glop of "fountain of youth" skin care wonders....

So here it be....
and yes, sometimes I'm too tired to wash my make-up off and I go to bed with it all on...but I try not to do this because it feels dry and crackly among other things...

Pleas come and enjoy this little "nightly skin regime" of mine for what I hope is "clean", "clear" and "anything that will help my skin stay youthful and/or young looking".....


Here's all the links to all my "night time face routine essentials":
BURT'S BEE's CITRUS FACIAL SCRUB- yes, I've used this for years as my daily face cleanser. It is the one thing that had made my skin look great, smooth and even though it says "scrub", I use it daily.
*If you have acne prone skin, you can CLICK HERE, to the video I did about special products just for acne prone skin.


Mario Badescu - Protein Night Cream - 1 oz.

Badescu Seaweed Cleansing Soap (I used this when I ran out of the Burt's Bee's and I like this too)

SEAWEED CLEANSING LOTION (toner)

Alba Un-Petroleum Jelly


TREAT Soft Candy Vanilla Buttercream Jumbo Lip Balm

You can also watch my video on how to make your own eye make-up remover HERE.

and yes I used my new editing software, so you are not going crazy, it did add the lip balm part in twice! ha ha ha at least it didn't show my teethbrushing part twice! ha ha ha

Here's to sweet dreams after you wash your face at night, and even sweeter looking skin!

Skin Emergencies

Look out! I got my Learning Glasses on! That means I'm about to teach you something...well, and if you already knew it, I'm about to remind you of something!
one of these babies is no good....
We've all had a zit, pimple, blackhead or whitehead or some kind of blemish.
Here's 3 tips to help keep the zits away and get rid of acne.
#1. Don't touch your face.
Our hands are like a school bus for germs...ready to drop of some  germs off at each stop we touch.

#2. Drink Up Buttercup-
Nothing flushes impurities and toxins away like water.
I break it down in the video, but you need on average about half your weight in ounces of water a day to properly flush out toxins, hydrate you and keep your cells full, flushed, and making your skin and body look and feel great!

#3. Get your Sweat on...then get your sweat off!
Do anything- dance, skip, jump rope, roller skate, pretend your a bird- anything...just get your heart rate up so it increases your circulation, blood flow (which will increase the oxygen to your skin cells which will make your skin look better), and because you don't want any funk to form on your skin, make sure you wash the sweat off! Especially guys and girls, sometimes when you sweat your hair prodcuts will mix with the sweat and run down your face...a bad combo. So make sure if you've worked up a sweat, that you work up a lather of cleanser to get it off!

I am so thankful I don't have to deal with the skin problems I had to deal with years ago, when I had a bout of acne. And my heart really goes out to those who are dealing with ANY kind of acne.

People message me all the time about what to use for acne, breakouts, a random face unwanted visitor on the face that red and swollen and usually on the center of the forehead or nose- zits always have teh most awesome locations!

WHAT TO USE FOR A ZIT-
So here the rundown- (for a cheap emergency home remedy)
You can dab some toothpaste on the zit. This is better than nothing, but it doesn't have some of the ingredients that will really speed things up and blast that bad boy ASAP.

BRANDS I LIKE TO ZAP ZITS-
Now before someone gets their toner pads in a knot, no one paid me to tell you I like the brand I'm about to mention...
I like the:
Hit the Spot from Dermalogica's Clean Start line of skin care for acne and breakouts
and
Bedtime for Breakouts

One of my friends got Clean Start to give all of my Kandee Family (you guys) 45% off these products as well as the cleanser, Wash Off- CLICK HERE for the LINK to save 45% off!

I want to thank Dermalogica for offering this awesome deal to pass onto all my Kandee Family! They didn't have to do that and it was so nice and generous of them! I had no idea they would do that!
(and again, for any people that might think I make money off the sales from this link, sorry to disappoint you, but no I don't, this is just a great offer for you guys, especially since financially right now, everyone can use a big savings.)  Again, thank you Clean Start - Dermalogica for this almost half off, offer, this is so nice of you!

*I have no idea about the details on this offer, like how long it will last, where it's available...so feel free to click on the link to check it out.

No one likes having acne. I didn't even want to leave my house when my skin was bad, was oozing, and it hurt. My heart breaks for those that feel their confidence has sunk because of acne. I really hope this helps restore your confidence, helps blast every blemish, so you can return to a normal life. And eventually back to your normal non-acne skin care routine!

PS I'll be doing a video for everyone that has asked about anti-aging, or wrinkle prevention, dry skin too!

Now come hang out with me and let's talk about gettin' great skin!
I don't love zits but I love you!...kandee

My Skin Care Routine....tada!


hi all my peeps!
so again....i accidentally erased the video I did on "what you need in your basic make-up kit"..ahhhhhhhhh...so frustrating!
but.....I didn't erase my "skincare routine" video! YAY!!!!
so here we go....off to the land of "near perfect" (or as perfect as you can get your pores!) skin-land....

I am so tired from my shoots this week....and then trying to make videos at night.......BUT...after my Skagen jewelry campaign shoot today...I stopped by the MAC store...where my girls called me up and said, "Come and pick up you HEllo Kitty...make-up"...
I'm gonna do a look with the new Hello KItty Collection..I love it...there is a lipstick you should all go get....I'll tell ya about it soon!


smiles and sparkles.....kandee!

oh PS...I forgot to mention in the video...if you get a zit or some kind of breakout....buy something with Salicylic Acid...it kills the bacteria which caused the blemish in the first place....and creates a protective barrie from further infecting it....my FAVORITE is SPOT REMOVER from Origins...you can get it here: http://www.origins.com/templates/products/sp_nonshaded.tmpl?ngextredir=1&CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY5808&PRODUCT_ID=PROD43
everyone whold have this in their bathroom cabinet!!!




YAY~ i just realized I didn't erase the "make-up essentials videos"...I'll post it tomorrow!
