I find some Timeless products to be quite fantastic as well. They are less expensive than Maelove and also on the list. My channel is not just on products but rather more on education on what works and what ingredients to look for and what to avoid when making choices and much more. Thanks for watching though! 💛🌷

I totally agree. I love and go by ingredients and the order that are listed. I checked out a lot of these luxury products and the key ingredients are listed at the end of a very, very long list which means that the amount of the key ingredients are minimum. So you are paying for fancy wording and a bunch of oils. I have a license and I know what to look for. Good skin care doesn’t have to be $500 a jar. Im 68 years old and my skin looks amazing. I do use medical grade skincare backed up by science and a lot of research.

Omg Desi, thank you so much for this video!!! I went down the Skin Perfection website rabbit hole and just wow… I wasn’t too sure about DIY but they have all the supplies and sanitizing instructions. The exciting thing about it is that we get to know the % of peptides. Like Maelove for example, we don’t know the % of peptides do we? AND there are so many exciting peptides to explore such as Pepha®️-Tight, Relistase®️-Peptide, Tens’Up™️ and Uplevity™️Peptides to name a few! We can be our own peptide designers! Thank you so much for sharing this incredible resource ♥️🙏🏼.

Auteur Definitive Line Serum is my holy grail item. I rank it up there with P50 (1970) but that's a different category. I have had marionette lines most of my life and I'm shocked at what a difference it makes. I'm not sure if I'd trade my retin-A for it -- it's that good!!

Desi, I have purchased the auteur exploration set (all sample packs for $28 so I bought two) and included are several packets of the line serum. I remember you telling me it's a game changer. Here's my question: You're supposed to put the serum on a dry face so assuming it's the first thing I would put on after I wash my face. Here's the thing: I always use several hydrating toners/essences followed by my GF serums and other peptide products before applying any moisturizers. I will often layer moisturizers too where I go from gel to a mid weight moisturizer and finally to something more occlusive. Will simply adding the line serum at the very start work in my routine? I do not limit my use of products to one brand but rather I use multiple brands (Emepelle, K beauty, calecim, avene, la Roche posay, Augustinus Bader, La Mer, Reviv, etc) Thank you so much for your wonderful videos!

Also bought the Auteur lifting toner. Although I love the feel of it, I’m not sure what it does for my skin??? Do I apply line serum first? Also, what do you think of Auteur sun drops? I’m currently using your Josiah sunscreen recommendation under makeup but am wondering which one you prefer? And finally, please do an updated morning routine video:)
@desistark7 ай бұрын
Thank you!! 💛 At night only: start with the Auteur toner. It preps the skin so the Line Serum penetrates your skin even better but it also has a lifting, firming effect. Apply Line serum after by pressing into skin. Layer other products over (finish with moisturizer). Skincare that works needs a minimum of 3 months… The Sun Drops are a watery oil. They make your skin hydrated and glowy and you can use them instead of a moisturizer too. I find it difficult to put makeup immediately on top though. But perfect for no makeup days with a touch of powder.

Some brands disclose the % of peptides on their website nowadays but if not: you can tell by how low on the ingredient list they are. If they are on the bottom and especially if the first 3 ingredients are Aqua (water), Glycerin & Dimethicone: usually a clear indication that the product contains a very small dosage.
