It's better to use it before to go to sleep

Hey guys, this is CathyCat and today we've come to a-collection

Which is an event about fashion, music and style

And today we're gonna ask the beautiful girls and guys

What kind of secrets they have

What is their morning routine

What is their evening routine to keep so pretty

So let's take notes and ask Japanese

SKIN CARE ROUTINE of Japanese MODELS

First is face-washing

I put a lot of efforts to wash off the dirt left on my face

So I'm using a make-up remover, a face-washing, peeling

Then wipe-off, face lotion and milky lotion

At the contrary I don't need to go as far as using a moisturizer

The most important is to have all the dirt off your face

The moisture and other liquids won't get inside ???

So the skin care I'm very careful about is to always wash your face

It would take at least 20 minutes

???

Do you do something special in the morning or in the evening?

Every night, I use a mask

In the morning I just smoothly use wipes and a face lotion

Sometimes when you take off too much ???

You might have a lot of dirt ???

So my Skin care routine is strongly washing in the evening and refreshing in the morning

In the morning

I don't do anything special, just regular face washing and using face lotion

But if there is something bothering me, like a bit of dryness

I would just put a bit of moisturizing cream on it

And in the evening

I do pretty much the same routine like washing and cleansing my face

I'm very careful about it

Using oil cleansing

Or face wipes

Sometimes it takes off too much oil and dries the face

And that would create some damages on the skin

It's better to use a cleansing cream

That's what told me the lady at the beauty salon

That's why now I'm always using a cleansing cream

Then, after I cleaned my face

I'm being very careful of applying face lotion right after I finish my bath

Then I use a mask

And an effective peeling cream

If I do that, the next morning when I'm washing my face, it'll be all smooth

It's also better when you apply make-up

How do you find those creams?

I look at all the reviews and ranking

Or asking professionals at beauty salons, right?

It's the same for me, the ladies at the beauty salon are teaching me a lot

But for the effective peeling cream for example

I learned it from my aunt

She actually knows well the beauty skin care products

I have a very sensitive skin

And dry as well so my main concern is to moisturize

And how do you moisturize?

In winter, my skin is so sensitive that it's peeling even with moisturizing lotion

So I'm using a mask that is very gentle on the skin

And then I use moisturizing and it works

It's written "highly-concentrated"

It's written in big letters

This should be it

- Recently, there is Lululun - Yes it's popular!

Lululun is pretty popular lately

It's very concentrated

- Lu lu... Lululun - Lululun

???

And then do you apply some cream right away?

Do you use the special brands for sensitive skin?

The products that I like are unbranded

The unlabeled brand's moisturizing lotions are the best

Those are perfect to me

Doing nothing would surprisingly be the best

Especially on stuff like moisturizing, I'm never doing that

- I just normally apply face lotion before to do my make-up - You really don't do anything

Even at night, I put nothing on my face after I wash off my make-up

Nothing? zero product?

Yes I do nothing

I'm not applying anything

There was a time I thought Nivea was pretty good

I don't really have an interested in Nivea

There is a Korean brand called Holika Holika

They have only one type of milky lotion and face lotion

A while back, I was using only their milky lotion before to do my make-up

Both of your skins are completely opposite

Yes they're completely opposite

???

Yes, I don't really have dryness but well sometimes it happens but it's not that bad

And when it does happen I'm only applying a bit before make-up and that's it

I'm not even particular about makeup removal

I'm just scrubbing hard my face with scan cleansing sheets

That's great, it seems so easy

Do you do something special for your skin care? Or are you somewhat careful about food?

Recently, needles

I've started to do facial needles

I was a bit afraid at first

It reduces well swellings

So I really like it and do it often

That's incredible! How do you exactly do it?

I go to a place specialized in acupuncture and they stick needles on my face

But when I do it, the next day, I don't have anymore swelling and my face looks smaller than the day before

So you're putting needles on your face?

Yes I do acupuncture

But it doesn't stay on your face, right? ???

No no it doesn't stay after???

???

And when I'm sleeping it's kind of popping

I recommend it

How did you find the place?

It's in my neighborhood

I see

Since they were doing it in my neighborhood, I thought "I should try and enter"

And when I tried, it felt good

Is it expensive?

No, not really

It's like 2000 yens for one session

Around that price

I think having it done for 2000-3000 yens is pretty cheap

Does it hurt?

Sometimes it might hurt around the neck

But on the face it really doesn't hurt

You don't know if it will stick or not

In the evening, before to go to bed, I use a face mask

You can use any type like one with a fragrance you like

Or one with ingredient you like

Then I apply moisturizing and face lotion and you're done

And in the morning

The same way, I use a mask and then wait for a little bit

In the meanwhile I can dress up or something

Then when I finished dressing up, I peel the mask off and I put make-up on

So for how long do you leave the mask on?

I would say around 15 minutes

In the evening

I apply beauty oil

I avoid dryness by applying oil

During the day

I mean in the morning

Every time, well, as much as I can

I'm applying a cream with no oil in it

So in the evening, with oil

And after waking up applying a cream with not much oil in, is perfect

And it will protect against suntan

- So in the morning, you should be careful not to use beauty oil? - Yes exactly

It's better to use it before to go to sleep

In the morning, with fresh water

I wash my face with fresh water

Yes, I give my best and do it with super cold water

Yes

And why using cold water?

If I do that, it would be easier to apply make-up

So really fresh water

What is really best is to use purified water instead of tap-water

To wash your face

But even with tap-water I think there are some good results

In the evening, I use a sleeping mask

One you can use while you're sleeping

They have this a lot in Korean cosmetics

It's a mask that you can put even when you sleep

It's like cream

After washing my face

I don't use a towel

I dry my face with tissues for example

And before to go to sleep, really just before

I take a collagen drink

And I drink that every day

A collagen drink?

A drink! Yes, a drink, a drink

I also take some supplements, like vitamins C or B

Since I live alone

There are plenty of times where I cannot have all the nutrients I need

So I feel better when I take supplements

In my case, I'm being very careful with make-up

I work almost every day as a part-timer in an izakaya

And I have to wear make-up

So I want it to be easy to remove, just with hot water

I'm using mascara and eye-liner for example

So I'm really careful of choosing one that can be take off with hot water cleansing

So the ones you can take off easily?

And then finish with only a foam cleansing

Before putting make-up on, I always use face lotions

What kind?

Like beauty...

Uh, a toning lotion

A milky lotion

And then, I'm making sure to apply a BB cream

Like Johnson&Johnson's?

Yes, Johnson&Johnson's BB cream

When I use it and then apply foundation

The foundation will really stick to my face

I really recommend it, and it's cheap

- Thank you very much! - Thank you!

Okay, skin care advice from Japanese models

We've had quite a lot of advice

Summering it up, saying that for example you need to wash you face properly

Be sure to take all the make-up off

Cause obviously, it's not good for your skin

Some people said "take it off properly" like "wipe it off properly"

But other people said be soft to your skin

And don't use too much abrasive substances on your skin

And after it really depends on your skin type I would say

Face packs are a big thing

I must say recently, I've been using a face pack in the morning and in the evening

Just like for a couple of minutes while I'm drying my hair and similar things

And it actually made my skin better

I think, I just I feel that way

But then again you have to find a face pack that suits your face

I'm, for example, using pure smile which is a Korean brand that's very popular in Japan

Furthermore everyone was talking about moisture lotions

And these ones are just like really good for your skin as well

Giving it loads and loads and loads of moisture

That's another point that most of the models here are very careful about

And then finally

Are not only on the outside, is also the inside

They sure take some sort of supplements or something that keeps you healthy

Just check that you have a healthy life style and diet

That's some of the beauty secrets here from the Japanese models

I hope that helped you
