Re: questions on how to apply and the order. Here are 2 links for 1 min videos of me applying, posted on Instagram. Also, if you want to see my skin without makeup, lights only from my vanity and filmed with my phone up close: Morning: instagram.com/reel/C7kF5uRPpwG/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Evening: instagram.com/reel/C85FFhCSPec/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
Hi Desi: new sub here, do you have links for the products that you speak about in this video? Maybe a promo code as well? I just found you and I'm so happy I did! Much love 😘😘💕💕
I'm not convinced this is not the work of a good surgeon. I can tell you how to get glowing fresh skin from products in your kitchen cupboard. NO gimmicks or lie's. No wrinkles, sagging or surgery. 1, Olive Oil repairs damaged stem cells, calm's an overactive nervous system, reduces excessive heat in the body - I used it for menopause, (sweats), PLUS moisturises the skin. I can say honestly, my skin was dry, wrinkly and had no glow. 3 months of olive oil, I am a new woman, aged 50, I look 30 changed my life and my body. Extra Virgin Olive Oil only 1/2tsp in my coffee every morning. 2. Kiwi Fruit repairs damaged DNA and well as high in Vit C. Voila! Please give it a shot. xx
Absolutely, most of my skin care come from natural products. I use a coffee grounds with flax seeds olive oil vitamin c crushed some sugar just for scrub and sometimes I put into a crushed aspirin. For me for me, it’s make my skin tighter and brighter smoother. Yes I believe you can do you own facial and skin regimen . Oh don’t forget retin A not natural but works!❤
Why do so many women get so defensive in the comments when videos like this are posted? Guys… even if she did have Botox even if she did have filler, etc., etc. which I’m not not saying that she did… but even so.. you have to take care of your skin in the proper way This is really good information and she is 100% correct about what the skin needs .
I completely agree with you . Taking care of your skin is an absolute commitment and investment. And if you are willing to spend the time, effort and money on good products and use good sun protection, you can get amazing results. She knows what she’s talking about. She has always been open about using Botox but she has absolutely beautiful skin so it’s more than just Botox.
It's misrepresentation, that's why. I have nothing against any type of procedure but skin care alone, I don't care how good it is, cannot produce the results shown on this beautiful woman.
I am desperately trying to find alternatives that are more affordable with same specs. I’m currently testing a lot as I do want to help as much as I can. I know that these are pricey but please, also pay attention to the specs and formulas I gave in the video as they are a good guide for what to look for. 💛🌷
@@grespinosa if your prescriptions are for health issues, consider watching videos from people doing the carnivore way of eating and their healing experiences. Dr. Shawn Baker Podcast is one youtube channel with those interviews.
@@w1975b I do, but just expect that if you're trying to treat a digestion problem, it won't be thecure... absorbing the nutrients is the main struggle but it's very low inflammation other than histamine if you have eggs or dairy. But histamine's a separate issue =)
I'm sorry but the best skincare routine will not lift sagging fascia! It's the underlying structure that is sagging; the skin just sits on top of it! You can ask any plastic surgeon or dermatologist or watch their videos here. They all say this!
@@LeTrashPanda That may be but she was talking mostly about antiaging skincare here which was also the only thing I was addressing. Facial massage, facial yoga, gua sha, etc may improve sagging, but not like an actual deep plane facelift and I'm talking as a woman in my early 50's, not as a 20 or 30 year old. My only point was that there is no skincare product you can apply to your skin that will lift the underlying fascia. And yes I have used Rx tretinoin for years, and I even apply Rx estradiol cream to my face every night. I never drink or smoke and I follow a special diet. None of these will lift fascia either, but my skin itself does look radiant.
@@krisq3616 I am 54 and have been doing Face Yoga and massage with castor oil since i was 50 when I started getting jowls. Today people think I'm 45. It so works.
@@LeTrashPanda I have a device that tightens muscles like NuFace and I see a huge difference for 2 days, I just never keep up on it but I definitely can't afford $516 dollar 1oz serums + over $300 for another that might last 1 month! It would be cheaper to get surgery or plasma treatments of some kind
Thank you for making these videos. I’ve started to follow your regimen. My skin has transformed dramatically. Ladies this content is legit. This is the best regimen you can find for anti-aging .
Cod liver oil is full of vitamin A (retinol) in its most bioavailable form and vitanin D! Smells a bit like fishing boat, but if your partner can bear it its so worth it! Eat it, put it on your skin, you see amazing results after a few hours already! Cod liver oil capsules are very affordable. The bioactive vitamin D helps to preserve your bone structure.
I have been using tretinoin for decades and that by itself did not do it for me. It wasn’t until I added the growth factors and peptides that I saw amazing results.
Re Botox: it’s not mentioned here as Botox bears no relevance to Sagging or this video. To all new subs: Welcome! But if you haven’t seen any other of my videos, it’s never been a secret that I’ve done Botox above my eye-line every 6-8 months for 15 years, including in the photos you see in the past as they are from 8-9 years. Botox will not help with Sagging but if you want to reduce forehead lines, I do recommend if administered by a skilled medical professional. To the few of you who think I’ve had plastic surgery: that’s a huge compliment so Thank you! But no, I’ve never done plastic surgery.
@@Apexpurrfection Agreed! It also helps with upper eyelid sagging as it diminishes the downward pull of the occularis muscle. Just don't overdo Botox because it can atrophy muscles over time if over used.
Okay... I'm a believer! You look great and your improvement is amazing. You have obviously done your research, so thank you! I will try a Jessner peel and also look into peptides and growth factors. I'm on the fence about microcurrent devices because I don't want to shrink or harm the fat cells or disrupt the fascia.
Increase protein Pilates and/or light weights And joint sparing cardio like rowing or swimming I used to weigh 497lbs, now... 270 and back on my diet. I've NEVER had sagging skin. In fact, I look 40lbs lighter... With no back fat or stomach. My curves are tight and no cellulite
My favorite micro current device is Foreo. It’s probably the most powerful, outside of a dermatology clinic. I try not to use a very high level because I don’t want to cause any atrophy from overuse. It’s been a huge game changer and I still look like I’m in my 20’s even though I’m in my mid 40’s. I’ll continue to this for the rest of my life! 😊
Derma rolling is also a must imo. Doesn't have to be an expensive Dr Pen either. I have one of those but I use the good quality manual rollers. 1.0mm for the whole face and a 0.25 for under the eyes. Once a week in conjunction with Retin A, Copper Peptides, Growth factors. Moisturiser is pointless for PM. All moisturiser does is hydrate the surface. I'll use it in the AM before a hydrating sunscreen. I use Squalane as the last step at night. If I don't use a moisturiser for a day, my skin stays hydrated because Squalane reaches the deeper layers. Doesn't matter if it's high end or from The Ordinary, as long as it's Squalane. Sorry this turned into a novel.. 🤣
I have always taken good care of my skin but was never seeing great results until I started following your regimen. Once I added growth factors, good peptides and P50, I can’t believe the results I’ve seen. Can’t thank you enough for making these videos!!
I agree with you. I used tretinoin for quite some time and I did, of course, see results but they were not drastic. When I incorporated Auteur per your suggestion, I could not believe my skin's transformation. People at work could not hold back and often commented how my skin looked youthful. I love your style, hair, and makeup. You are a pleasure not only to listen to but to look at as well. Thank you!
Everyone's missing the fact these are pharmaceutical grade cosmetics - they will go deeper, produce faster results than the more mainstream products. And also, they last longer because you won't use as much product due to higher concentration. I appreciate that Desi has basically vetted these products so I don't waste money on a high end item only to find it doesn't work. I plan to slowly incorporate these as I save money. I know it's frustrating to know there's amazing products out there outside your budget. But for me, I have a desire to get these and will start saving for them. Thanks so much, Desi!
Such a smart note! Thank you for pointing this out. Yes, high concentration of the right Ingredients is what makes for a good effective product. 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I agree with that, but who's gonna be able to afford $500 & $300 for 2 1oz products every month or 2 ? It's cheaper to just some work done by a professional and it'll last a whole lot longer
Lots of chemical compounds absorbed into ur skin and blood supply=== dis ease! You may look pretty for bit but don’t be surprised if some new diagnoses come round the corner
You are correct on the 3 tenors. I am trying your regime. I have used the 3 tenors from Dr. Perricone MD for years. I take lots of supplements drink steam distilled water and eat healthy. I am 72 years young and have been doing microcurrent and LED light therapy for years. I have slight sagging and have added home radio frequency about 4 months ago. This has helped give me an extra lift. With the 3 tenors, I don't need to wear makeup, but add an spf cream as my last moisturizer. Only use a finishing amazon clay powder, blush and an eye liner is all I need. Oh castor oil for brows and lashes work great.
I would like to see your current skin in the same lighting as the before picture. While your skin looks great, it seems like you have a filter like haze on your camera. I have/am trying some things your recommended. So far great results.
I post often stories on Instagram using my phone. Feel free to see there. For these videos I use a Canon DSLR camera, which unlike Sony cameras used by most YT creators, mine DOES NOT have a filter.
Oh well i love my cardio and it’s the ONLY thing that works for my physical and mental health. Nothing better than a nice 1 hr walk or run to make me feel less anxious and calmer when i get home and i like getting out to the gym . In fact for me my cortisol levels go up when intense weightlifting. I’m never lift a single weight again. Thank god for muscle memory I’m naturally muscular from when i used to do my workouts and gymnastics when younger took long time to heal my body. Yoga works just fine I’m 45!!!
She's not wrong. Everything she's telling you is true. She could very well be remodeling her skin with all these things combined. You would see results with just a couple
I am a new subscriber and so happy I found your channel. I am in my early sixties (60s) and have great skin. However, I desire healthier and even better skin. I currently do have the Zip and need to use it more. I will look at your videos and take notes to include changing my skincare. Great video. Keep them coming.
I noticed some people here think you have had surgery i dont think that at all, it is obvious you are very passionate about anti aging, and i myself use expensive products too which have given me incredible results so if you look hard enough you can find alternatives to plastic surgery ect.! Thank you for your video and research.
Thank you so much for your note! I would have fixed my nose if I had surgery 😂 and I’m definitely not that old. I started this channel to help people and the smart ones see my videos and learn some things. There is always a small group of people who have the need to bash others without enough information as I find out those didn’t even see the video. Studies show that people like that feel extremely powerless and miserable in their own lives. I empathize with that and if bashing others helps them, then in all cases, my goal to help people has been accomplished. 💛💛💛
I am so glad that I ran across this video. I purchased your recommended products to help my skin. I am 60 years old. I have been doing what your recommend and ALREADY AMAZING results! It has only been five days!! Thanks Desi!!
@@desistark I am so looking forward to it!! My lines on my upper lips have improved so much that I think I don’t need fillers anymore!! Which is amazing!!
Fantastic video. Straight to the point. I purchased many of these products because of your recommendations and cannot wait to get results. I’ve been down about my sagging skin lately. It’s very encouraging to see your results. Thank you for sharing your before photos. I’ve stopped watching other influencers because I feel like they are trying to promote products that sponsor them. You don’t do that which is why I trust you. Don’t listen to any negative comments. I love your makeup. You are beautiful and classy. Your look is exactly what I’m going for. Please keep the videos coming and have a wonderful week!!!💕
well what can i say Desi, I have taken your advice and the clock has been turned back for the better. My skin is even better than when I was i my 20's. I am truly grateful for your advice and theses products work fast. Thank you so very very much Desi - rich blessings
I kind of agreed with you in some point but here is my list 1. Growth factor 2. Peptide 3. Tretinion or retinol u name it ,let talk about your extremely change by your photos this is really shocking and a bit …… only skincare ???? Am speechless 😮
I love this Desi! Great information. Can you also make a video that sows your actual routine, so we know the order these products and eqipment are applied. Thanks!
Thank you for your recommendations ! They are all fantastic , the one that has made the most difference is Calecim ! Incredible product , I’ve tried other growth factors and this is hands down the best ! I would have never known about it if it wasn’t for you :) and you’re right they all work like Tenors together 🎼 Thank you 🌸
The device is what changes it all. And it CAN hurt you. The nu face device is a microcurrent device. It stimulates muscle toning through a direct current which is why there's 2 points of contact. A series of microcurrent treatments by a professional can give you results comparable to a face lift, minus the scarring. It can be dangerous if you have heart conditions or arent trained tonuse it properly. You can fry your thyroid, and if you have a pacemaker, you can fry your heart. However, this treatment is incredibly effective. Bragging about not having lasers, etc, makes it seem like lasers and medical treatments are a negative thing. Everything you're doing to exfoliate is just doing it at a slower rate than professional treatments. The expensive lines you're using are not necessarily a cost effective alternative to professional treatments for people to see results faster.
It is enough to use tallow balm with beeswax, olive oil and safflower oil in a balm. A good bar of really superfatted natural olive oil and illipe and Shea butter soap and one made with goat milk or yogurt will exfoliate dead skin twice a week. One can reverse aging with simple fats. Think of leather conditioners, tallow and beeswax. You do not need to use chemicals. A good old fashioned bar of milk soap exfoliates in the best ways. ❤
I used OneSkin for around 9 months and while it helped my skin slightly, it didn’t blow me away or provide the results they claim. My biggest gripe with the product is their OS-1 peptide is incapsulated in a cream and they recommend to use their cream as the first step of your skincare regimen to encourage absorption, prior to layering serums over top! I’ve stopped using it because of this. If they brought out a highly absorbable serum I’d start using it again and add it to my peptide repertoire. But yeah that’s my main problem with One Skin.
After a car accident, I needed some serious help with asymmetry of my face. Peta from Facerobics transformed my face and helped me with my TMJ pain. Her free exercises are more than enough to get results, she's tough but it's worth it. My face looks much more normal, nobody would know what I went through other than a scar that I'm working on that is also greatly reduced from LED light and scar tape at night. God bless my GF for introducing me to facial exercise. I also used the Facial Flex tool for my jaw, I was in really bad shape with my jaw alignment and needed more help there. That tool works great but it takes time so be patient.
I have been using Obagi products along with Tretinoin for about two years now and I love it. It has really made a difference in my skin. Now I have discovered the Anteage MD system which uses bone marrow stem cells. (not from fetuses or anything like that) It also contains peptids and other ingredients for cell turnover. ( natural form of retinol) I hear you can also use your tretinoin as well if you want to increase that cell turnover. I am going to try it and see if it is better than the obagi. It uses less products and is not quite as expensive as the obagi. Why buy ten different products when you can get it all in just a few? I hear their eye cream is amazing as well!
I'll have to keep researching for low budget products and get as close as I can to your regime, Desi. Using Ziip and Red Light mask, will keep trying. 71 in 3 weeks 😢
The smartest comment!! In addition to giving products I’ve used, I also give the Blueprint of what you need. Thank you for watching the video in its entirety and deducting that! I’ll try to be helpful further with that as I’m testing a lot of affordable skincare now. I’ll pick the most effective and film a video in the future. 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
Just please keep in mind that if you have cancer history in your family or you're at high risk for cancer you should ABSOLUTELY NOT USE any type of growth factors ❤
The myolift mini is an amazing micro-current device. I use LED mask but the two modalities that work synergistically with these are a micro needling device like a Dr.Pen and a radio frequency device like the Newa. They are also game changers. The Newa has five independent studies that prove its effectiveness when it’s combined with micro-current is very effective.
Definitely true! I do not do any micro-needling as I do not do anything that requires any downtime. But there are clinical studies shown increase in collagen production with regular treatments. I also have the Newa RF device. Haven’t tried it yet but will report after a 45 day test.
I tried Auteur retinol, line serum and line cream. I see great result. My skin is lifting and even. I will add the Calecim serum that you suggested. My under is still puffy. Could you suggest any product for this issue? TIA Desi.
I put ice 🧊 cubes under my eyes rub back n forth and then my face ! It closes pours! Try Calecium eye … I also use skin roller.. salt contributes to under eye puffiness! 🙏🏼👍🫶💕🩵
Love it and so great to hear you love your results!!! 💛🌷 Are you referring to your under eye area being puffy? If yes, this is my most recent discovery: go.shopmy.us/p-3332232 It de-puffs immediately. Long term: Sisley Eye is great and Biologique Recherche Liposmose. go.shopmy.us/p-835192 go.shopmy.us/p-5623769
I got the Suzanne Somers face master 25 years ago. It's way way stronger than anything they sell now. It kinda scared me when I first tried it, but OK now. I love it.
Thanks Desi. I love exfoliating with sugar and Rose Hip oil. I start rubbing in circular motion at first it feels rough but the oil starts to melt the sugar and I rub for a good 5 min. I rinse with warm water . My skin is left absolutely baby soft all dead skin and white heads gone. I then shave my face. I do this every Sunday. . I scrub my hands also . I have the ZIPP and love it.
Maelove is a really nice line with affordable oricing. The ziip is amazing. I have also seen the best results from my led panel and microcurrent. I didnt know you can exfoliate daily (not physical). Thank you
Hi Desi, Great video. Which retinoid do you suggest for mature skin that is already sagging around the jowls? And is there a specific order you use these products? Thanks so much
Hi!! Thank you for watching! I suggest Tretinoin. It works faster and you have control over the concentration. It’s also more economical. If you’ve never used any Retinoids before, you can start at a lower dosage to get used to it. 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
Priceless video. Thank you so much for this. Same here, always taken care of my skin but even with that as I’m now 50 I feel like it’s not enough with what I’m using. Even considering some cosmetic help but really don’t want to go that route really. This video and info was priceless so thank you so much. ❤
Thank you so much!! 💛💛💛 The issue with cosmetic help is that once you start, you have to continue repeating every 2-3 years to maintain. I’m sure at 50, you haven’t crossed the “point of no return” yet. I’d delay anything cosmetic as much as I can. Even in spa procedures like lasers - these you have to do once a year. I’m not against any of these but I found this way with skincare. No downtime, no pain. 😄 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I had complements on my skin in my early 40s from some dr assistants. I was juicing regularly then. I was also doing oil & vinegar as my salad dressing for salads with red meat or chicken on them and squeezed lemon for salads with seafood.
This is a good point. Although diet on its own will not fix specific issues, it does encourage cellular vitality and fights against glycation and inflammation of the skin, which are major contributors to aging. 💛
Totally agree. I would add a 6th product. Sunscreen! The most important anti ageing product we can use, along with all these other ones, is sunscreen 🙂
Hear hear. I’m a guy and alot of guys are realising that too. I’ve been using it in and off since 2001 but since 2017 been using it regularly. I’m 51 now, was told by my work mate who is 25 thought I was 40! I’ll take that! 😁
Amazing point!! Sunscreen is a must. I posted my routines separately (attached below) and it’s of course mentioned there but it should always be mentioned💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
@@softshallow7435 LOL exactly! We all (gen x and before) grew up being told it wasn't a big deal but we know now how much it is. It took forever to know even that we need it to be broad spectrum. It makes such a big difference.
@@DanteVelasquez I’m Indian guy who had severe eczema all my life and since my twenties I had steroid creams abuse of my skin with thinnning around my forehead, then mainly 30’s I started thinking my skin would look older than them people my age when I got older or even see if I can reverse my aging, I’m using certain other skin care regimes as well like cleansing, exfoliating and retinol creams, sunscreen doen’t help it enough without the help of the other treatments and these other treatments will [not] work if you do not use sunscreen. I can not say sunscreen enough. Last 5 years I’ve been eczema cured (in away) since using an injection for eczema.
@@softshallow7435 Wholeheartedly agree. My original point was what you are saying, that it doesn't matter how dedicated one is to a skincare regimen, not protecting your skin from sun damage will age you faster anyway.
Great video. Please make one on what order to apply these products? Also Can you do one one the same for the body and exfoliation?? Please ..thank you.
I have listed the videos I had previously posted on Morning and Evening Skincare routine in the Description Box below but in short here is how I apply: Morning: Exfoliate, Calecim Evening: Peptides, Retinoid You can use the device any time of the day. I post reels on Instagram of how I actually apply if you want to see more. My IG handle is @desistark.
Thanks, from a new subscriber. I'm thrilled YT suggested your channel. I get overwhelmed by details sometimes and end up with analysis paralysis. And this additional breakdown helped my adult ADHD mind calm down. Best wishes!
Not all of us can use microcurrent devices, me for one. I have a pacemaker and anyone with a pacemaker can't use microcurrent or radio frequency devices. Plus Dr. Rajani said these cause facial fat pad loss.
I have two questions : 1- Do you recommend using the Calecim serum instead of the multi action cream and recovery night ? 2- How do you incorporate the auteur line into the Calecim line? .. Thank you 😊 .. I love your channel by the way.
Thank you!! I prefer the Calecim serum because it’s a liquid consistency and I can use it in any routine. I usually use it in the morning and Auteur only at night.
Sorry to be hogging your time on this video but I am super excited about Auteur. What is the difference in the Auteur Density cream and the Restorative cream? I am looking for something that I could use in daytime.
Reach out with questions any time! 💛 The Restoration cream is heavy and super hydrating. It’s not quite suitable for the morning. The Density cream is more potent for anti-aging and it has lighter more elegant texture.
@@desistark I might suggest for anyone in an older age stage (I'm 67) experiencing a dryness they're not used to -- the Restoration Cream is also quite amazing. I tried samples of both products and do like the Density Cream, but the extra hydration in the Restoration formula was kind of a prescription choice. Plus the fragrance is unique (is that a yeast scent? Not sure but I'm hooked)! ....my 2 cents for next-phase skin age-wise.
Great video, Desi! You consistently share effective, honest, and to-the-point information. Also, thanks for showing us the 2016 vs 2024 photos. It helps prove that these skincare compounds and techniques make a difference.
what do you think of the timeless skin care line? Is it worth trying? Most of us don’t have the budget for expensive skin care and this brand is affordable
I completely understand. My experience has been with mostly luxury products for last 27 years but I’m currently testing a lot of affordable as well as I’d like to find what works just as good, if possible, and help as many people as I can. I’ll be posting content on this in the future. I like some Timeless products. Please, watch the videos posted below for more detail. 💛
You will appreciate watching penn smith skincare. She has excellent content like you presented in this video. Glad to find your chamnel. I jave been ising Viktoria Deann peptides. It is a kit and I was told from the company to not combine other products. I am loving this line.
@@fg9223 she has had work done but when discussing certain products or devices she is filled with research & helpful tips/information. I love her channel
Thank you for your video. Your skin looks well cared for. Are there any less expensive but still effective stem cell treatments that you know of? That would be helpful to me.
Thank you for watching! I’m currently testing a lot of affordable skincare. I am confident I’ll find some close comparable products soon but unfortunately, stem cells are still expensive in skincare based on R&D financial influx. 💛🌷
Valid and great advice! I’ve been an SVP in Finance for 20 years. I used to work 18 hr days, travel on business all the time and ate whenever I had the time. I found balance a few years ago (especially with COVID) and definitely helped with my appearance tremendously. So thank you for bringing it up! 💛
Thank you for this question! I have attached below in the Description Box videos on Morning and Evening Skincare routine I’ve recently posted. But on Instagram, I post reels on how I’m actually applying the products. In short: Morning: Exfoliate and Calecim; Evening: Peptides and Retinol. 💛🌷🌷🌷
I've been debating on trying the auteur skin care line. Thankfully they offer an affordable sample kit. Obviously it won't show us long term, but at least we can find out how our skin may react to their products and if we like the consistency of the serums and creams❤
Huge compliment. Thank you!! But if I had a facelift, don’t you think I would have reduced the giant forehead I have not mention the nose? Are you seeing the size of my forehead?? It’s taking over my face. Definitely would have fixed that first.
I'm a skincare dummie and this was super helpful - I will definitely go for a skin cleansing device! I looked up the ones you recommended and I saw that foreo is having a sale, so - the decision has been made
Hi! This is not an entire routine but rather the 5 most important ones for firming the skin: peptides, growth factors, Retinoids, micro current therapy and exfoliation. If you are not specifically sensitive or allergic to any ingredients and you can tolerate (especially Retinoids), all these are universally helpful for all skin types. Really good question. Thank you for asking! 🌷
After doing a lot of research for the least four years … I definitely agree with you … you don’t need many different products .. just the ones with the right concentration… the US I filled with diluted products and use the name in it for marketing. You selected Every good ingredients .I would only add a krill oil supplement 😊
You are beutiful, and thanks for sharing. I use natural products make by my own, that help met to get gradually old, I am 62 and people believe I am on my 40s. I do not know how long we will need to use this products to keep the results. But that is a lot of money. To all who can use the money for this is perfect. Enjoy the results. I really scare of what happen if you stop using this products once you start it. I hope no one have the Dorian Gray efect.❤
Love the Dorian Gray analogy. Made me laugh😄 It’s just skincare though; nothing happens drastically fast and we have to use any skincare throughout our lives anyway…just like we have to eat every day. Thank you for the note! I appreciate you watching! 💛🌷
Thank you for sharing, the results speak for themselves. I’m sure products and consistency are key factors for sure. Surgery alone would not have these results.
💛 I definitely recommend an antioxidant in the morning. I replaced my Vit C with Chebula by True Botanicals a few months ago as I like it more but as long as it’s properly formulated, a Vit C is good to include in your routine.
You contribute so much knowledge about skincare, thank you very much. And fashion and make-up too, you have a great channel. I hope you will do a hair routine too, your hair is always so beautiful.
its the fat and smash layer of the face that are sagging that cannot be addressed with skin care , not to mention bone density loss... which can't be addressed with any procedure in current technology
I am nearly 50, never had Botox or filler and try everything under the sun before getting dermatitis and my liver got very toxic from retinol products, I change to all clean natural products like Castor oil, roseship oil etc and my skin did rejuvenate, I also do facia massages that work amazing to tone the skin, I believe synthetic products work but will never life the skin and will damage your liver and health, and is only on the superficial layers of the skin, that's my experience and I hope it helps someone,
Thanks for the note! I’m a bit unclear though as to how you damaged your liver from retinol. Were you drinking retinol? Because, if applied topically, it would be impossible for your liver to deteriorate.
@@desistark if you just google can retinol cause liver or health problems you will find lots of information regarding this, I do have routine blood test and liver test and is how I manage to see what was causing the problem thanks to an elevate liver reading,
Oh, no, your note was definitely not rude. That’s not why I asked or responded. I had some issues with an elevated liver enzyme last year myself so I can relate. But I reached for a lot of medical advice from doctors and it turned out to be from an over the counter supplement. Once I stopped it, all tests normalized. I wouldn’t rely on Google as a source of information as anyone can post there. It’s commendable you do your medical tests annual, I do the same. But I have to tell you with an utmost certainty, that liver cannot be damaged by a topically applied retinol. I’m only mentioning this as I do want to help and you still may need to find out what’s causing it. 💛🌷
@@desistark it was tretinol and it was the reason I got sick, headaches, migraines, tired all the time etc, my Liver taste changed once I stopped and detox it (it took around a full year) to get my health back, I know it sounds ridiculous but the body absorbe it, anyway is good to check and read the medical reports you find on google read about it
I’ve never done any surgery or anything that requires healing or downtime. No fillers either. My face is pointy and fillers would not be suitable and very visible. Not against any of it nor judging people who do any procedures. That’s a personal choice.
I have not heard that before but now that you put it on my radar, I’ll have to do some research to see if there is any scientific evidence to support it. I can’t think of why that would be and I personally have done both for 6 years with the opposite effect actually (from other products obviously) 💛🌷
I've contacted Ziip and they told me, if you use tretinoin or retinols you can use the Ziip safely at night before you apply the tretinoin because almost 24 hours have past since the last application or use the Ziip in the morning. Just never after you just applied tretinoin because you will push it deep into the skin. My Derm also told me it's ok to use it that way
@@TheBoots72I think he meant during the same period. I may have misunderstood the statement…I usually do ZIIP in the morning before any skincare or chemical exfoliation as you apply the gel conductor to use the device and you have to wash it off after anyway. Same applies to evenings. 💛
I like the concept and you look radiant.. just wondering if retinoids along with daily exfoliation is too irritating even after a purge. Would the peptides make skin more tolerant?
Great question! I always exfoliate in the morning and use Retinoids at night. That way you avoid irritation. Also, peptides only at night as if you mix them with acids, causes hydrolysis and diminishes the effectiveness of peptides. If you watch some of my other videos, I’m very specific on the order of ingredients and when to apply them. 💛🌷
Hi Desi, I've been using and alternating between the Calecim and Neigenesis stem cell serums. Unlike calecim that source their stem cells from deer umbilical cord, Negenesis use adult human stem cells which have the same cell to cell communication with human skin cells as they speak the same language as opposed to animal cell to human cell. Coukd you please research, experiment and share your experience with Neogenesis. Thanks ❤❤❤
Thank you for your note! I have a hard time applying human stem cells. I get icky about it. I have the Neogenesis serum and will have to force myself to test, in the name of research. 😄 💛🌷
Tretinoid is the best it has changed my skin sooo much and I am 40 now no wrinkles before I started 7 months ago my skin didn't look good at all but now is looking amazing.
Desi, I think you made this video just for me! How would I incorporate the One Skin, Calecim serum and the Auteur line serum in my routine? Do you use them all at the same time? I have been using the Calecim and am a huge fan.
Hi! If you exfoliate in the morning (which I recommend), use Calecim in the morning and OneSkin and Auteur at night. Alternatively, you can use Calecim both morning and evening; OneSkin and Auteur at night. 💛
I wish I could see you without a lot of makeup. I just looked at the Auteur and about passed out at the price. I'll have to go with the Maelove, lol. But, thank you for all this information, I really appreciate it, and you are gorgeous.

I'm not convinced this is not the work of a good surgeon. I can tell you how to get glowing fresh skin from products in your kitchen cupboard. NO gimmicks or lie's. No wrinkles, sagging or surgery. 1, Olive Oil repairs damaged stem cells, calm's an overactive nervous system, reduces excessive heat in the body - I used it for menopause, (sweats), PLUS moisturises the skin. I can say honestly, my skin was dry, wrinkly and had no glow. 3 months of olive oil, I am a new woman, aged 50, I look 30 changed my life and my body. Extra Virgin Olive Oil only 1/2tsp in my coffee every morning. 2. Kiwi Fruit repairs damaged DNA and well as high in Vit C. Voila! Please give it a shot. xx
@lukastemberger she drinks it with coffee, not applies on the skin if you read.
Absolutely, most of my skin care come from natural products. I use a coffee grounds with flax seeds olive oil vitamin c crushed some sugar just for scrub and sometimes I put into a crushed aspirin. For me for me, it’s make my skin tighter and brighter smoother. Yes I believe you can do you own facial and skin regimen . Oh don’t forget retin A not natural but works!❤
Castor oil works well
You sound like jlo 😂
Exfoliation should be physical. Alpha A Midnight Reboot serum is fantastic. @@rosieshere339

Tretinoin

Emu and Kiwi oils

Why do so many women get so defensive in the comments when videos like this are posted? Guys… even if she did have Botox even if she did have filler, etc., etc. which I’m not not saying that she did… but even so.. you have to take care of your skin in the proper way
This is really good information and she is 100% correct about what the skin needs .
I completely agree with you . Taking care of your skin is an absolute commitment and investment. And if you are willing to spend the time, effort and money on good products and use good sun protection, you can get amazing results. She knows what she’s talking about. She has always been open about using Botox but she has absolutely beautiful skin so it’s more than just Botox.
Absolument, she does say in other videos that she uses Botox
Thank you @sugarbella4929 ! Botox wears off and fillers wear off, anyway, if it's not done regularly. And botox doesn't affect the lower jaw area.
It's misrepresentation, that's why. I have nothing against any type of procedure but skin care alone, I don't care how good it is, cannot produce the results shown on this beautiful woman.
@@AussieChick48 it’s not misrepresentation if you understand everything that you’re looking at.
I priced these products & due to the huge costs not in my budget I'll grow old gracefully & love the skin I'm in.
It’s discouraging to hear the products are pricey - I can barely manage my prescriptions! 👀
I am desperately trying to find alternatives that are more affordable with same specs. I’m currently testing a lot as I do want to help as much as I can. I know that these are pricey but please, also pay attention to the specs and formulas I gave in the video as they are a good guide for what to look for. 💛🌷
How much?
@@grespinosa if your prescriptions are for health issues, consider watching videos from people doing the carnivore way of eating and their healing experiences. Dr. Shawn Baker Podcast is one youtube channel with those interviews.
@@w1975b I do, but just expect that if you're trying to treat a digestion problem, it won't be thecure... absorbing the nutrients is the main struggle but it's very low inflammation other than histamine if you have eggs or dairy. But histamine's a separate issue =)
I'm sorry but the best skincare routine will not lift sagging fascia! It's the underlying structure that is sagging; the skin just sits on top of it! You can ask any plastic surgeon or dermatologist or watch their videos here. They all say this!
Facerobics, it works. See how she transformed her face.
@@LeTrashPanda That may be but she was talking mostly about antiaging skincare here which was also the only thing I was addressing. Facial massage, facial yoga, gua sha, etc may improve sagging, but not like an actual deep plane facelift and I'm talking as a woman in my early 50's, not as a 20 or 30 year old. My only point was that there is no skincare product you can apply to your skin that will lift the underlying fascia. And yes I have used Rx tretinoin for years, and I even apply Rx estradiol cream to my face every night. I never drink or smoke and I follow a special diet. None of these will lift fascia either, but my skin itself does look radiant.
@@krisq3616 I am 54 and have been doing Face Yoga and massage with castor oil since i was 50 when I started getting jowls. Today people think I'm 45. It so works.
@@LeTrashPanda I have a device that tightens muscles like NuFace and I see a huge difference for 2 days, I just never keep up on it but I definitely can't afford $516 dollar 1oz serums + over $300 for another that might last 1 month! It would be cheaper to get surgery or plasma treatments of some kind
Massage and face yoga, guasha, retinol, vitamin c, good diet, sunscreen.

Cod liver oil is full of vitamin A (retinol) in its most bioavailable form and vitanin D! Smells a bit like fishing boat, but if your partner can bear it its so worth it! Eat it, put it on your skin, you see amazing results after a few hours already! Cod liver oil capsules are very affordable. The bioactive vitamin D helps to preserve your bone structure.
What is bioactive vitamin d
Thank you for posting this, it never occurred to me that cod liver oil could be used topically!
Don't forget Vitamin K2 (100mcg per capsule, at least) or you're kinda wasting your money.. I love Nature Valley from Walmart
Native Americans tend to be allergic to cod liver oil. My mother and I cannot take it. We have dire consequences.

*5.* Exfoliate 12:26
Amazing!! Thank you for this breakdown! You are fantastic!! 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I have been using tretinoin for decades and that by itself did not do it for me. It wasn’t until I added the growth factors and peptides that I saw amazing results.
May I ask what you use?
yes, please let us know the brand names of the growth factors and peptides...especially if they come in at a cheaper price point!
Which growth factor ??? I use Osmosis . And what peptide ????
Which products or brands did you use for peptides and growth factors: would you mind sharing please ?
Calecim for growth factor and Maelove peptide serum.
Re Botox: it’s not mentioned here as Botox bears no relevance to Sagging or this video. To all new subs: Welcome! But if you haven’t seen any other of my videos, it’s never been a secret that I’ve done Botox above my eye-line every 6-8 months for 15 years, including in the photos you see in the past as they are from 8-9 years. Botox will not help with Sagging but if you want to reduce forehead lines, I do recommend if administered by a skilled medical professional.
To the few of you who think I’ve had plastic surgery: that’s a huge compliment so Thank you! But no, I’ve never done plastic surgery.
Botox on the neck and jaw will definitely help minimize jowls. Jowls are partially from the neck pulling the jowls down.
@@Apexpurrfection Agreed! It also helps with upper eyelid sagging as it diminishes the downward pull of the occularis muscle. Just don't overdo Botox because it can atrophy muscles over time if over used.
Okay... I'm a believer! You look great and your improvement is amazing. You have obviously done your research, so thank you! I will try a Jessner peel and also look into peptides and growth factors. I'm on the fence about microcurrent devices because I don't want to shrink or harm the fat cells or disrupt the fascia.
Have you tried Ellacore? That apparently provides significant lift to the neck and lower half of the face
Could you please make a video of body skin sagging and its best solutions? Your tips are incredible! Thank you!
That would be great
Definitely! I’ll put it on my list. Thank you for the idea. 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
@@desistark Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it! 🩷
Increase protein
Pilates and/or light weights
And joint sparing cardio like rowing or swimming
I used to weigh 497lbs, now... 270 and back on my diet. I've NEVER had sagging skin. In fact, I look 40lbs lighter... With no back fat or stomach. My curves are tight and no cellulite
My favorite micro current device is Foreo. It’s probably the most powerful, outside of a dermatology clinic. I try not to use a very high level because I don’t want to cause any atrophy from overuse. It’s been a huge game changer and I still look like I’m in my 20’s even though I’m in my mid 40’s. I’ll continue to this for the rest of my life! 😊
Thank you for the tip!! I’ll have to buy that as well now. 😄
💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I hate that you have to use it with a app though
@@Stayhydrated736 you don't need the app for the Foreo Bear. You can run it on your own.
You are definitely looking amazing! The prices of those products though🙀
I’ve actually heard rlly good things about microneedling!!
I had multiple treatments of micro needling...it left me with broken capillaries
Derma rolling is also a must imo. Doesn't have to be an expensive Dr Pen either. I have one of those but I use the good quality manual rollers. 1.0mm for the whole face and a 0.25 for under the eyes. Once a week in conjunction with Retin A, Copper Peptides, Growth factors. Moisturiser is pointless for PM. All moisturiser does is hydrate the surface. I'll use it in the AM before a hydrating sunscreen. I use Squalane as the last step at night. If I don't use a moisturiser for a day, my skin stays hydrated because Squalane reaches the deeper layers. Doesn't matter if it's high end or from The Ordinary, as long as it's Squalane.
Sorry this turned into a novel.. 🤣
After rolling I'll use either Hyaluronic Acid, Peptides, even low strength Vitamin C. Depends how my skin feels.
I have always taken good care of my skin but was never seeing great results until I started following your regimen. Once I added growth factors, good peptides and P50, I can’t believe the results I’ve seen. Can’t thank you enough for making these videos!!

Which growth factors and peptides do you use?
I use Calecim growth factor products and I’ve been using Maelove peptide serum which works really well for me and is affordable.

Can you please tell me if you help others in person with their skin? If you have an office I would love to make an appointment!!!
I agree with you. I used tretinoin for quite some time and I did, of course, see results but they were not drastic. When I incorporated Auteur per your suggestion, I could not believe my skin's transformation. People at work could not hold back and often commented how my skin looked youthful. I love your style, hair, and makeup. You are a pleasure not only to listen to but to look at as well. Thank you!

😂😂😂@@user-bw3so6ih4l

Which cream of Auteur do you use?
Everyone's missing the fact these are pharmaceutical grade cosmetics - they will go deeper, produce faster results than the more mainstream products. And also, they last longer because you won't use as much product due to higher concentration. I appreciate that Desi has basically vetted these products so I don't waste money on a high end item only to find it doesn't work. I plan to slowly incorporate these as I save money. I know it's frustrating to know there's amazing products out there outside your budget. But for me, I have a desire to get these and will start saving for them. Thanks so much, Desi!
Such a smart note! Thank you for pointing this out. Yes, high concentration of the right Ingredients is what makes for a good effective product.
💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I totally agree
I agree with that, but who's gonna be able to afford $500 & $300 for 2 1oz products every month or 2 ? It's cheaper to just some work done by a professional and it'll last a whole lot longer
Lots of chemical compounds absorbed into ur skin and blood supply=== dis ease! You may look pretty for bit but don’t be surprised if some new diagnoses come round the corner
You are correct on the 3 tenors. I am trying your regime. I have used the 3 tenors from Dr. Perricone MD for years. I take lots of supplements drink steam distilled water and eat healthy. I am 72 years young and have been doing microcurrent and LED light therapy for years. I have slight sagging and have added home radio frequency about 4 months ago. This has helped give me an extra lift. With the 3 tenors, I don't need to wear makeup, but add an spf cream as my last moisturizer. Only use a finishing amazon clay powder, blush and an eye liner is all I need. Oh castor oil for brows and lashes work great.
FYI, LED light is poison to your body.
Love it!! Thank you for sharing! 💛🌷
Which peptides?
@@dorothyparsons1515 If you are asking me, Dr. Perricone Neuropeptides. I also now add her peptides from Maelove Peptide Squad
I would like to see your current skin in the same lighting as the before picture. While your skin looks great, it seems like you have a filter like haze on your camera. I have/am trying some things your recommended. So far great results.
I post often stories on Instagram using my phone. Feel free to see there. For these videos I use a Canon DSLR camera, which unlike Sony cameras used by most YT creators, mine DOES NOT have a filter.

Sounds like a plan! I don't look like i have that many wrinkles but the sagging is more obvious.
Same with me. It’s subtle, but I notice.
My holy grail is Paula’s Choice. I hope the company never disappears or changes its ingredients because my skin is better at 44 than it has ever been
One of the very few affordable brands I trust. Yes, I like many of Paula’s Choice products as well. 🌷
Oh well i love my cardio and it’s the ONLY thing that works for my physical and mental health. Nothing better than a nice 1 hr walk or run to make me feel less anxious and calmer when i get home and i like getting out to the gym . In fact for me my cortisol levels go up when intense weightlifting. I’m never lift a single weight again. Thank god for muscle memory I’m naturally muscular from when i used to do my workouts and gymnastics when younger took long time to heal my body. Yoga works just fine I’m 45!!!

I empathize with that and if bashing others helps them, then in all cases, my goal to help people has been accomplished.

The device is what changes it all.
And it CAN hurt you. The nu face device is a microcurrent device. It stimulates muscle toning through a direct current which is why there's 2 points of contact. A series of microcurrent treatments by a professional can give you results comparable to a face lift, minus the scarring. It can be dangerous if you have heart conditions or arent trained tonuse it properly. You can fry your thyroid, and if you have a pacemaker, you can fry your heart.
However, this treatment is incredibly effective. Bragging about not having lasers, etc, makes it seem like lasers and medical treatments are a negative thing. Everything you're doing to exfoliate is just doing it at a slower rate than professional treatments. The expensive lines you're using are not necessarily a cost effective alternative to professional treatments for people to see results faster.
It is enough to use tallow balm with beeswax, olive oil and safflower oil in a balm. A good bar of really superfatted natural olive oil and illipe and Shea butter soap and one made with goat milk or yogurt will exfoliate dead skin twice a week. One can reverse aging with simple fats. Think of leather conditioners, tallow and beeswax. You do not need to use chemicals. A good old fashioned bar of milk soap exfoliates in the best ways. ❤
how does the soap slough off to exfoliate though?
I used OneSkin for around 9 months and while it helped my skin slightly, it didn’t blow me away or provide the results they claim. My biggest gripe with the product is their OS-1 peptide is incapsulated in a cream and they recommend to use their cream as the first step of your skincare regimen to encourage absorption, prior to layering serums over top! I’ve stopped using it because of this. If they brought out a highly absorbable serum I’d start using it again and add it to my peptide repertoire. But yeah that’s my main problem with One Skin.
Agind starts in the muscles of the face, too. Any beauty products can't reach the muscles. The facial muscles sage.
After a car accident, I needed some serious help with asymmetry of my face. Peta from Facerobics transformed my face and helped me with my TMJ pain. Her free exercises are more than enough to get results, she's tough but it's worth it. My face looks much more normal, nobody would know what I went through other than a scar that I'm working on that is also greatly reduced from LED light and scar tape at night. God bless my GF for introducing me to facial exercise. I also used the Facial Flex tool for my jaw, I was in really bad shape with my jaw alignment and needed more help there. That tool works great but it takes time so be patient.
And fascia!
@@LeTrashPandawhat is facial flex tools?
@@anyariv Dr. Anil Rajani here on youtube has videos about facial fat pads
Muscles do not sag, skin does though. Just lost weight suddenly over 40. You'll instantly have loose skin permanently.
I have been using Obagi products along with Tretinoin for about two years now and I love it. It has really made a difference in my skin. Now I have discovered the Anteage MD system which uses bone marrow stem cells. (not from fetuses or anything like that) It also contains peptids and other ingredients for cell turnover. ( natural form of retinol) I hear you can also use your tretinoin as well if you want to increase that cell turnover. I am going to try it and see if it is better than the obagi. It uses less products and is not quite as expensive as the obagi. Why buy ten different products when you can get it all in just a few? I hear their eye cream is amazing as well!
Thanks for introducing these quality skincare products. You have saved me a lot of time, money, and frustration.
I'll have to keep researching for low budget products and get as close as I can to your regime, Desi. Using Ziip and Red Light mask, will keep trying. 71 in 3 weeks 😢
The smartest comment!! In addition to giving products I’ve used, I also give the Blueprint of what you need. Thank you for watching the video in its entirety and deducting that! I’ll try to be helpful further with that as I’m testing a lot of affordable skincare now. I’ll pick the most effective and film a video in the future.

The myolift mini is an amazing micro-current device. I use LED mask but the two modalities that work synergistically with these are a micro needling device like a Dr.Pen and a radio frequency device like the Newa. They are also game changers. The Newa has five independent studies that prove its effectiveness when it’s combined with micro-current is very effective.
Definitely true! I do not do any micro-needling as I do not do anything that requires any downtime. But there are clinical studies shown increase in collagen production with regular treatments. I also have the Newa RF device. Haven’t tried it yet but will report after a 45 day test.
I tried Auteur retinol, line serum and line cream. I see great result. My skin is lifting and even. I will add the Calecim serum that you suggested. My under is still puffy. Could you suggest any product for this issue? TIA Desi.

Thanks Desi. I love exfoliating with sugar and Rose Hip oil. I start rubbing in circular motion at first it feels rough but the oil starts to melt the sugar and I rub for a good 5 min. I rinse with warm water . My skin is left absolutely baby soft all dead skin and white heads gone. I then shave my face. I do this every Sunday. . I scrub my hands also . I have the ZIPP and love it.
I exfoliate with baking soda
Totally makes sense because sugar is scrubby. Thank you! Good tip!!

Hi Desi, Great video. Which retinoid do you suggest for mature skin that is already sagging around the jowls? And is there a specific order you use these products? Thanks so much
Hi!! Thank you for watching!
I suggest Tretinoin. It works faster and you have control over the concentration. It’s also more economical. If you’ve never used any Retinoids before, you can start at a lower dosage to get used to it. 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I pinned the order above but in summary: morning: exfoliate, growth factor; evening: peptides & Tretinoin

Priceless video. Thank you so much for this. Same here, always taken care of my skin but even with that as I’m now 50 I feel like it’s not enough with what I’m using. Even considering some cosmetic help but really don’t want to go that route really. This video and info was priceless so thank you so much. ❤
Thank you so much!! 💛💛💛
The issue with cosmetic help is that once you start, you have to continue repeating every 2-3 years to maintain. I’m sure at 50, you haven’t crossed the “point of no return” yet. I’d delay anything cosmetic as much as I can. Even in spa procedures like lasers - these you have to do once a year. I’m not against any of these but I found this way with skincare. No downtime, no pain. 😄
💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I had complements on my skin in my early 40s from some dr assistants. I was juicing regularly then. I was also doing oil & vinegar as my salad dressing for salads with red meat or chicken on them and squeezed lemon for salads with seafood.
This is a good point. Although diet on its own will not fix specific issues, it does encourage cellular vitality and fights against glycation and inflammation of the skin, which are major contributors to aging. 💛
Totally agree. I would add a 6th product. Sunscreen! The most important anti ageing product we can use, along with all these other ones, is sunscreen 🙂
Hear hear. I’m a guy and alot of guys are realising that too. I’ve been using it in and off since 2001 but since 2017 been using it regularly. I’m 51 now, was told by my work mate who is 25 thought I was 40! I’ll take that! 😁
Amazing point!! Sunscreen is a must. I posted my routines separately (attached below) and it’s of course mentioned there but it should always be mentioned💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
@@softshallow7435 LOL exactly! We all (gen x and before) grew up being told it wasn't a big deal but we know now how much it is. It took forever to know even that we need it to be broad spectrum. It makes such a big difference.
@@DanteVelasquez I’m Indian guy who had severe eczema all my life and since my twenties I had steroid creams abuse of my skin with thinnning around my forehead, then mainly 30’s I started thinking my skin would look older than them people my age when I got older or even see if I can reverse my aging, I’m using certain other skin care regimes as well like cleansing, exfoliating and retinol creams, sunscreen doen’t help it enough without the help of the other treatments and these other treatments will [not] work if you do not use sunscreen. I can not say sunscreen enough. Last 5 years I’ve been eczema cured (in away) since using an injection for eczema.
@@softshallow7435 Wholeheartedly agree. My original point was what you are saying, that it doesn't matter how dedicated one is to a skincare regimen, not protecting your skin from sun damage will age you faster anyway.
Great video.
Please make one on what order to apply these products?
Also
Can you do one one the same for the body and exfoliation??
Please ..thank you.
Thank you!! Yes, I’m posting “Blueprint of Skincare Application” this Sunday.
🌷💛
I have listed the videos I had previously posted on Morning and Evening Skincare routine in the Description Box below but in short here is how I apply:
Morning: Exfoliate, Calecim
Evening: Peptides, Retinoid
You can use the device any time of the day.
I post reels on Instagram of how I actually apply if you want to see more. My IG handle is @desistark.
Thanks. Will follow you on IG as well.
Thank you so much! :)
Thanks, from a new subscriber. I'm thrilled YT suggested your channel.
I get overwhelmed by details sometimes and end up with analysis paralysis. And this additional breakdown helped my adult ADHD mind calm down. Best wishes!
Not all of us can use microcurrent devices, me for one. I have a pacemaker and anyone with a pacemaker can't use microcurrent or radio frequency devices. Plus Dr. Rajani said these cause facial fat pad loss.
Good point! Thanks for bringing it up. 💛
Thank you so much for sharing this. I think you are absolutely stunning!
I have two questions : 1- Do you recommend using the Calecim serum instead of the multi action cream and recovery night ? 2- How do you incorporate the auteur line into the Calecim line? .. Thank you 😊 .. I love your channel by the way.
Thank you!! I prefer the Calecim serum because it’s a liquid consistency and I can use it in any routine. I usually use it in the morning and Auteur only at night.
You look incredible!
I have been using your recommendations and products.
Love the results.
Thank you
, for the discount codes and your advice!❤
Thank you for your kind note!! I’m so happy to hear. 💛🌷
I’ve never subscribed so fast 😅 Thank you!
Sorry to be hogging your time on this video but I am super excited about Auteur. What is the difference in the Auteur Density cream and the Restorative cream? I am looking for something that I could use in daytime.
Reach out with questions any time! 💛
The Restoration cream is heavy and super hydrating. It’s not quite suitable for the morning. The Density cream is more potent for anti-aging and it has lighter more elegant texture.
@@desistark I might suggest for anyone in an older age stage (I'm 67) experiencing a dryness they're not used to -- the Restoration Cream is also quite amazing. I tried samples of both products and do like the Density Cream, but the extra hydration in the Restoration formula was kind of a prescription choice. Plus the fragrance is unique (is that a yeast scent? Not sure but I'm hooked)! ....my 2 cents for next-phase skin age-wise.
Great video, Desi! You consistently share effective, honest, and to-the-point information. Also, thanks for showing us the 2016 vs 2024 photos. It helps prove that these skincare compounds and techniques make a difference.
💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
They should at that price
what do you think of the timeless skin care line? Is it worth trying? Most of us don’t have the budget for expensive skin care and this brand is affordable
I completely understand. My experience has been with mostly luxury products for last 27 years but I’m currently testing a lot of affordable as well as I’d like to find what works just as good, if possible, and help as many people as I can. I’ll be posting content on this in the future.
I like some Timeless products. Please, watch the videos posted below for more detail. 💛
You will appreciate watching penn smith skincare. She has excellent content like you presented in this video. Glad to find your chamnel. I jave been ising Viktoria Deann peptides. It is a kit and I was told from the company to not combine other products. I am loving this line.
Penny Smith, who has facelift, blefaropalsty. They are paid to sell us stuff
@@fg9223 she has had work done but when discussing certain products or devices she is filled with research & helpful tips/information. I love her channel
Thank you so much! I just looked her up. She’s been around for a while but you’re absolutely right, very similar…
💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I just wanted to let you know that some of your links didn't work. Thank you again for all your great skincare advice!! You have helped me a lot!!
Very informative. I am so excited to start this new journey and see the results. Thank you for your research. I will update with my results.
Can’t wait to hear!!! 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
1) Peptides 5% or more
2) Grow Factor (Serums - Organically sourced - Calecim)
3) Retinoids
4) Micro-current Device
LED Device
5) Exfoliate
Thank you for your video. Your skin looks well cared for. Are there any less expensive but still effective stem cell treatments that you know of? That would be helpful to me.
Thank you for watching! I’m currently testing a lot of affordable skincare. I am confident I’ll find some close comparable products soon but unfortunately, stem cells are still expensive in skincare based on R&D financial influx.
💛🌷
Save u money , eat good food , relax little exercise , be happy and don’t stress to much , ,
Best advice :)
Valid and great advice! I’ve been an SVP in Finance for 20 years. I used to work 18 hr days, travel on business all the time and ate whenever I had the time. I found balance a few years ago (especially with COVID) and definitely helped with my appearance tremendously. So thank you for bringing it up! 💛
You sure no filler at all all?
No filter. See pinned comment with other videos taken with my phone though.
No I don't have the money to put into a skincare routine that cost hundreds of dollars a lot of people don't
Thank you for this video. Do you have a video on what order to apply the products and whether day or night?
Thank you for this question! I have attached below in the Description Box videos on Morning and Evening Skincare routine I’ve recently posted. But on Instagram, I post reels on how I’m actually applying the products.
In short: Morning: Exfoliate and Calecim; Evening: Peptides and Retinol.
💛🌷🌷🌷
You might as well get a face lift with how expensive this cost
I agree. Except for the small possible side effects of surgery like botched, down time, death and stuff.
@desistark 😂😂😂❤
You look fabolous and I love to see that we can actually look better and get more beautiful with the years❤
💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
I've been debating on trying the auteur skin care line. Thankfully they offer an affordable sample kit. Obviously it won't show us long term, but at least we can find out how our skin may react to their products and if we like the consistency of the serums and creams❤
oh come oon, you CLEARLY had a facelift... be honest may be you can be more credible, looks great btw.
Huge compliment. Thank you!! But if I had a facelift, don’t you think I would have reduced the giant forehead I have not mention the nose? Are you seeing the size of my forehead?? It’s taking over my face. Definitely would have fixed that first.
Microcurrent devices work like magic. I'm using a Foreo Bear and it's amazing.
I'm a skincare dummie and this was super helpful - I will definitely go for a skin cleansing device! I looked up the ones you recommended and I saw that foreo is having a sale, so - the decision has been made
I am glad to help! 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
Is this entire regimen safe for dark skin? Thank you for your videos.
Hi! This is not an entire routine but rather the 5 most important ones for firming the skin: peptides, growth factors, Retinoids, micro current therapy and exfoliation. If you are not specifically sensitive or allergic to any ingredients and you can tolerate (especially Retinoids), all these are universally helpful for all skin types. Really good question. Thank you for asking! 🌷
After doing a lot of research for the least four years … I definitely agree with you … you don’t need many different products .. just the ones with the right concentration… the US I filled with diluted products and use the name in it for marketing. You selected Every good ingredients .I would only add a krill oil supplement 😊
If you HAD to choose ONE product? What would it be?
Auteur LINE serum? Density cream? Thanks!
If I have to choose one, for my needs: the Line serum. 🌷
@@desistarkthank you ❤😊
You are beutiful, and thanks for sharing.
I use natural products make by my own, that help met to get gradually old, I am 62 and people believe I am on my 40s.
I do not know how long we will need to use this products to keep the results. But that is a lot of money.
To all who can use the money for this is perfect. Enjoy the results.
I really scare of what happen if you stop using this products once you start it.
I hope no one have the Dorian Gray efect.❤
Love the Dorian Gray analogy. Made me laugh😄 It’s just skincare though; nothing happens drastically fast and we have to use any skincare throughout our lives anyway…just like we have to eat every day.
Thank you for the note! I appreciate you watching! 💛🌷
Thank you for sharing, the results speak for themselves. I’m sure products and consistency are key factors for sure. Surgery alone would not have these results.
Thank you for this very simple break down! What you are your thoughts on Vitamin C in the morning?
💛 I definitely recommend an antioxidant in the morning. I replaced my Vit C with Chebula by True Botanicals a few months ago as I like it more but as long as it’s properly formulated, a Vit C is good to include in your routine.
You look amazing, Thank you for sharing your routine.🌻🌻
💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
You contribute so much knowledge about skincare, thank you very much. And fashion and make-up too, you have a great channel. I hope you will do a hair routine too, your hair is always so beautiful.
Thank you so much!!! Yes, plenty of content on that coming as well. 💛💛💛🌷🌷🌷
its the fat and smash layer of the face that are sagging that cannot be addressed with skin care , not to mention bone density loss... which can't be addressed with any procedure in current technology
Correct! There is a “point of no return” and you cannot reverse after.
I am nearly 50, never had Botox or filler and try everything under the sun before getting dermatitis and my liver got very toxic from retinol products, I change to all clean natural products like Castor oil, roseship oil etc and my skin did rejuvenate, I also do facia massages that work amazing to tone the skin, I believe synthetic products work but will never life the skin and will damage your liver and health, and is only on the superficial layers of the skin, that's my experience and I hope it helps someone,
Thanks for the note! I’m a bit unclear though as to how you damaged your liver from retinol. Were you drinking retinol? Because, if applied topically, it would be impossible for your liver to deteriorate.
@@desistark if you just google can retinol cause liver or health problems you will find lots of information regarding this, I do have routine blood test and liver test and is how I manage to see what was causing the problem thanks to an elevate liver reading,
@@desistark also you look beautiful and this is working for you and you been kind on sharing this information, apologies as I didn't mean to be rude,
Oh, no, your note was definitely not rude. That’s not why I asked or responded. I had some issues with an elevated liver enzyme last year myself so I can relate. But I reached for a lot of medical advice from doctors and it turned out to be from an over the counter supplement. Once I stopped it, all tests normalized. I wouldn’t rely on Google as a source of information as anyone can post there. It’s commendable you do your medical tests annual, I do the same.
But I have to tell you with an utmost certainty, that liver cannot be damaged by a topically applied retinol. I’m only mentioning this as I do want to help and you still may need to find out what’s causing it. 💛🌷
@@desistark it was tretinol and it was the reason I got sick, headaches, migraines, tired all the time etc, my Liver taste changed once I stopped and detox it (it took around a full year) to get my health back, I know it sounds ridiculous but the body absorbe it, anyway is good to check and read the medical reports you find on google read about it
You really look amazing, can you tell us also about the surgerys or fillers you did and where ?
I’ve never done any surgery or anything that requires healing or downtime. No fillers either. My face is pointy and fillers would not be suitable and very visible. Not against any of it nor judging people who do any procedures. That’s a personal choice.
Thank you for the information. Your channel is amazing 👏🏻
Thank you!! 💛🌷
Very interesting and informative. Thank you. Your skin looks amazing
🌷💛
If I could buy two auteur or Calecim professional treatments to start, which two should I add in to my regimen to notice the benefits most?
Line Serum and Calecim Professional. That way at least you have a good peptide and a good growth factor. Not a complete routine but a good start. 💛
If using retinol they say microcurrent is not advised because it can cause pigmentation.
I have not heard that before but now that you put it on my radar, I’ll have to do some research to see if there is any scientific evidence to support it. I can’t think of why that would be and I personally have done both for 6 years with the opposite effect actually (from other products obviously)
💛🌷
I've contacted Ziip and they told me, if you use tretinoin or retinols you can use the Ziip safely at night before you apply the tretinoin because almost 24 hours have past since the last application or use the Ziip in the morning. Just never after you just applied tretinoin because you will push it deep into the skin. My Derm also told me it's ok to use it that way
@@TheBoots72I think he meant during the same period. I may have misunderstood the statement…I usually do ZIIP in the morning before any skincare or chemical exfoliation as you apply the gel conductor to use the device and you have to wash it off after anyway. Same applies to evenings. 💛
I like the concept and you look radiant.. just wondering if retinoids along with daily exfoliation is too irritating even after a purge. Would the peptides make skin more tolerant?
Great question! I always exfoliate in the morning and use Retinoids at night. That way you avoid irritation. Also, peptides only at night as if you mix them with acids, causes hydrolysis and diminishes the effectiveness of peptides. If you watch some of my other videos, I’m very specific on the order of ingredients and when to apply them. 💛🌷
Hi Desi, I've been using and alternating between the Calecim and Neigenesis stem cell serums. Unlike calecim that source their stem cells from deer umbilical cord, Negenesis use adult human stem cells which have the same cell to cell communication with human skin cells as they speak the same language as opposed to animal cell to human cell. Coukd you please research, experiment and share your experience with Neogenesis. Thanks ❤❤❤
Thank you for your note! I have a hard time applying human stem cells. I get icky about it. I have the Neogenesis serum and will have to force myself to test, in the name of research. 😄
💛🌷
Red light therapy is great !
Tretinoid is the best it has changed my skin sooo much and I am 40 now no wrinkles before I started 7 months ago my skin didn't look good at all but now is looking amazing.
Which one do you use? Thanks 😊
Desi, I think you made this video just for me! How would I incorporate the One Skin, Calecim serum and the Auteur line serum in my routine? Do you use them all at the same time? I have been using the Calecim and am a huge fan.
Hi! If you exfoliate in the morning (which I recommend), use Calecim in the morning and OneSkin and Auteur at night. Alternatively, you can use Calecim both morning and evening; OneSkin and Auteur at night. 💛
@@desistark Thank you! And by exfoliate in the morning, are you referring to the P50, using it everyday?
Yes, I use P50 every morning but any acid you use to exfoliate.
I wish I could see you without a lot of makeup. I just looked at the Auteur and about passed out at the price. I'll have to go with the Maelove, lol. But, thank you for all this information, I really appreciate it, and you are gorgeous.
Thank you!! Yes, check out the pinned comment with videos with me applying skincare. No makeup. Also, I post a lot without makeup on Instagram. 🌷💛
