Medical Esthetician Reacts to Selena Gomez’s Pre-Flight Skincare Routine

[@ashleiamber9653]

I was 16 when your viral cystic acne makeup video was released. I struggled with cystic acne and I felt so relieved to see other people in a similar situation. I too would slather everything I could on my face just praying it would go away because it was so painful and embarrassing. You helped shape my interest and love for skincare when I was in a vulnerable place and provided me with an overwhelming amount of knowledge on how to overcome my acne! So thanks for all you do for the skincare community.

[@frankied.roosevelt6232]

Selena's makeup line is the only one ive found that involves complexion products that dont agitate my mast cells or dermatographia!

[@CassandraBankson]

Hi thee, that is great to hear!! Keep it up, every body is different and finding something that works for your skin is half the battle. Have a great day!!

[@CloverBell13]

If you're on the hunt for a good mist for flights, d'Alba makes one that is sometimes referred to as the the 'Flight Attendant Mist' because it's popular among Korean flight attendants. It's called the White Truffle First Spray Serum. I like it cause it not only hydrates the skin, but it has a moisturizing layer that sits on top to lock in that hydration. It's not fragrance free but I don't mind and I think it smells great.

[@juicywater7868]

Another great mist is from Byoma which has no fragrance, contains lipids and other great ingredients

[@Anxiousdes]

Girl… are you making your own skin care line?!?!?! I hope so! I freakin love you. I love how you tell us why and how ingredients do the things they do scientifically. I’m the girl always asking, “yeah but why/how does this work.”

[@kirsty2861]

I'm guessing she uses the spray to wake herself up as the main purpose rather than hydrate etc

[@yazziyazzi]

Yeah that’s what I was thinking as well

[@lenamohrzadeh]

That’s exactly what I was thinking, just a refreshing wake me up mood boost

[@KarleeBretthauer]

Or she doesn’t like getting water everywhere when washing her face in the sink.

[@JamieNotLamie]

@@KarleeBretthauer That's why I lean over the tub instead of the sink! When you lean down the water won't travel down your arms as easily, and you can splash your face as much as you want over the tub! Try it, it will change your whole routine! No clean up ever. I was seriously so tired of making a mess washing my face that I found a new way and I'm trying to get the word out for my fellow cysters. 😅

[@msk-qp6fn]

Yeah that seems like it

Barometer measures pressure Hygrometer measures humidty

[@mylifewithmarmalade4624]

Just a heads up, barometers are for air pressure, hygrometers measure humidity. Haven’t flown in a hot minute, but as someone with dry skin who lives in a very dry climate (15-20% indoors during winter is not uncommon), here’s my game plan for combatting the dry: 1) drink lots of water and/or diluted electrolytes the day before, the day of the flight and the day after. I’m talking like a full gallon a day. More if you plan to consume a lot of caffeine, salt, sugar, or alcohol. 2) double cleansing and gently exfoliating will help moisturizers sink in better 3) Skip the HA serums. There’s not going to be any water for it to draw into your skin, so it’s more likely to start drawing it out. 4) Apply a good non irritating moisturizer, the heavier the better, even if you are oily, slather it on. You can always blot later if needed, but trying to catch up once you’re dry is a struggle. Let that absorb well, then apply sunscreen over it. 5) Skip the makeup if possible, I find it makes me more dry when things are already dry. Stick to maybe a bit of concealer and mascara, maybe a tinted sunscreen/cc cream, and a tinted lip balm instead of lipstick or gloss. Preferably with SPF. 6) If you are willing to go sans makeup and okay being a bit shiny I’d actually slug your whole face once you’ve allowed time for the sunscreen to absorb, give it 20-30 minutes and then blot lightly to remove the worst of the grease before you leave for the airport. I would do a trial run of that to see how the sunscreen you want to use works under the occlusive you want to use to make sure you don’t get any pilling. 7) As soon as you get to your hotel/home double cleanse again, put on a hydrating sheet mask, and then slather on the moisturizer. 8) Unless you are heading somewhere very humid, consider taking a portable humidifier to run on your night stand. Your skin will want all the extra moisture it can get to rebound.

[@oisheami6755]

Please do a in flight skincare routine...big fan love how you give us the right information.. Thank you🤗🤗😘😘

[@italianlifestyle7911]

How awesome we have all these products tested and kindly suggested so that we don't waste time looking for them.💖

[@jessicamonteferrante6545]

Im travelling this summer and I started noticed that I get very dry during and after my flight. Could you build a basic skincare routine that we could use as we travel with products under the 100ml limit. Thanks!

[@JaiProdz]

You can't go wrong with a simple cleanser, moisturizer and a sunscreen. And maybe a toner mist if you arrive dry.

[@lilac_rain3855]

Girl I have a sheet mask on and a full skincare routine that follows every time I take an international flight, I don’t care if people give me weird looks, I need to be HYDRATED

[@arianacastro3972]

I'm excited for your collaboration with isntree can't wait for the sunscreen 😘

[@corinnegunter3889]

I think the Mario spray was just a vibe smell thing not for any benefit. Sometimes I spray mine just to relax like aromatherapy.

[@leondodds1415]

I'm a flight attendant and had my skin under so much control (thanks to you) before I started the job. My skin looks foul in those lavatory mirrors 😂 the dryness also breaks me out. I'm from the UK too where carry-on liquids have to be under 100ml and has to all fit in a 20x20cm bag. I often have to substitute serums and moisturisers for more sunscreen if I'm going somewhere hot so I'm having to keep a very minimal routine. I'd love to see a video for us!!! Sometimes I'll just slug in vegan vaseline but its not the most glamorous look hahaha

[@longnailsgurl578]

I am a flight attendant too. I would be so happy if we get skin care routine video🥹

[@Siberius-]

Can you decant (new word for me) your products into tiny containers? (where applicable). In the shower I have little travel bottles for my shampoo, cleanser, bodywash, benzoyl peroxide. Just a bunch of uniform little bottles that I refill once in a while that all fit on a small suction shelf out of my way. Out of the shower I have The Ordinary Salicylic Acid solution, and I keep those bottles and put my much bigger bottle of The Ordinary Glycolic Acid into that dropper bottle, so much nicer.

[@sarahnickmilbratz]

I’m taking my three kiddos on a plane for their first flight soon! Good reminder to put sunscreen on them before the flight! (I always have it on anyway!)

[@vacationeyes6430]

I would wear sun protective clothing for flight and slather La Roche Posay cicaplast on face, followed by Sunscreen in the morning.

[@amberlynn369]

Assuming she’s putting the Dermalogica spray on a pad and not directly spraying it on her face to not waste product. I do this so this is my personal assumption** I noticed when I use skincare sprays so much product is wasted in the air and doesn’t reach my face if I just spray it.

[@justlilykatherine]

My new flex is that I use the same toner as Selena Gomez 🥹

[@ShakiraSmylie]

Selena is so kind and beautiful and her makeup products too ❤

[@logophilelyss4390]

Also, when you have lupus, sunscreen is EVEN MORE IMPORTANT. Hoping she puts it on every single day.

[@monikongkanabharadwaj9915]

This is so true. Once I was travelling on a day time flight and I had just gotten laser treatment done 1 day before as I was attending a ceremony 3 days later. And within 1 day after I reached my destination I saw my entire face change colour. I got so badly tanned. Even though I had put sunscreen before I left for the airport. But I am guessing I should have reapplied. Anyways never doing any procedures before my travels again

[@lauraburton4986]

Yes please flight attendant routine!! I’m yet to find a spf I love and also which spfs to reapply over heavy flight attendant makeup ❤

[@melissagalech3649]

That would be fun if you created a morning skin care routine for a flight attendant! Numbuzin 3 toner is really good to add for hydrating. It has 50 fermented ingredients or something like that.

[@ccalexander1924]

Honestly I love the rose water from Mario . It smells so wonderful. I would just spray it first thing in the morning bc I loved the smell but I did clean my face first then spray the rose water then when that dried I added my serum Then moisturizer. I have used Selena’s under eye patches and they actually worked really good. They are always sold out though.

[@TheSkinnyZ]

Little correction: A barometer measures the pressure, a hygrometer measures the humidity.

[@jandymic770]

Yeaaah SPF for scalp!❤ I need this video

[@talaaa2897]

Hey Cassandra! This has nothing to do with this video and if you dont mind me asking, what is the difference between an essence toner and a pure essence, cuz in your last video you recommended the Purito toner as an essence, and im interested in the pyankung yul essence toner, can i use it with the purpose of blurring my pores? Thank you, ik you made a video abt the difference between those two but what is the cutting line that determines an essence from an essence toner, are these just marketing techniques? I want to know all about it

[@elizabethevelyn7125]

I also don't spray my toner spray directly on my face, and this is both to keep it out of my eyes/eyelashes (I always wind up with eye sting when I spray it directly, even with my eyes closed) and to get a more even application of the product (sprays are prone to skip areas). I just spray it onto my hands and pat pat 😅 I know it kinda defeats the purpose of a spray but I like the product itself

[@20thcenturyrelic]

The product probably has a lot of alcohol and/or fragrance in it. When the spray is used up, save yourself some money and refill it with tap water. It will moisturize your face just as well.

[@janelinehayes8127]

😍 Love your videos! Will you do a review on the Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Moisture Airyfit Sunscreen please! 🙏🏾

[@ladasaratova]

[@DemureDelight8055]

“Price sensitive” is such a nice way to say poor lol

[@mlow4951]

Could you do a travel skincare suggestions for different climates? E.g. im from a tropical place and i find it hard to manage my skin in dry places, so any suggestions would be so helpful! ❤

[@lisandraylafamilia]

I love your videos, I learn a lot. Can you make one for pregnant women? There are others products I love to see from your perspective: Age-Defying Lift & Firm Cream from Miami MD skincare and karammdskin

[@mugdhadokhale9972]

The first thing I thought was that she just used the rose water for the fragrance to start her day off, just to smell the freshness. Didnt think too much of it to get confused. :D And it's cheap enough for that!

[@clarisaantiagingdermatology]

Mario Badesco is the worst skin care line because of the artificial colorings and oxides in his products. For example, the green algae face mask is filled with green coloring, other colorings, and oxides.

[@qwmx]

She looked really tired. I think the badescu spray is meant to help her wake up.

[@hitomitomtom]

Fan from Japan 🇯🇵

[@sandalaris]

Thats good to know about flying. I don't fly often, road trip gal here, but I'm also a dry skinned girlie, and its good to know to toss some extra hydration into my bag for my skin. :)

[@mahpponyott6984]

btw she is on first class hence the sleeping again and correct me if am wrong most of the seats there are windowless ? its littrly a private little cabine so maybe that's why she thinks she doesnt need an spf ?

[@mirinaxo1663]

Aesthetician to the stars Nerida Joy really loves the Rejuvi brand and has used it for like 40 years and swears by it. I looked into it and there are a couple of products that seem really good but many she swears by have a lot of essential oils and sort of questionable ingredients that I am not sure my sensitive skin could handle. I’d really appreciate if you would look into that line, talk about the ingredients, and maybe even try out a product or two? Thanks ❤ PS. I totally remember when you bought the barometer onto the plane… That was interesting !

[@cookycutie]

I just love selena whatever she does she does it elegantly shes such a quenn. , btw guys you will notice that all her videos her hands are shaking she struggles applying make up / skin care , yet she insist on doing it herself , big part why she made rare beauty make up and beauty tools is that its also made for people with same health condition as hers every rare beauty profuct is made to be easily opened / closed if u have shaky hands and even her make up handle us also made to not fall when her hands are shaking , oh for the spf her make up has spf i think its tinted one (concealer or foundation i dont remember) , anyway i follow selena bc i like her music and personality i love how close she is with her sister and SHE HAS a consistent friend cycle through her life which is a good indicator that she has solid people arround her , next thing i noticed OUT OF ALL CELEBRITIES THAT CAME UP WITH MAKE UP BRANDS / skin care brands SHES THE ONLY ONE that uses truely her own brand on red carpet on tv on set , you can see her film "only murder in the building and having some rare beauty outthere in the background shes not fainting shes didnt make a brand and extort money she actually has trust in her brand and use it on herself with her medical condition kudos to selena and i wish her all the happiness in the world especially after all the hate shes receiving for her body / face and all the changes due to a medical condition she still fighting and positive a true diva .

[@tehmaimed]

Mario Badescu is also hated because of the undisclosed steroids used in their cream. That's absolutely OFFENSIVE and tbh the whole brand should have been sued to bankruptcy after that scandal

[@msk-qp6fn]

Not offensive, it's downright DANGEROUS

[@tehmaimed]

@@msk-qp6fn absolutely agree!

Hey Cassandra, if i was at home all day long and the sun is coming through the windows- ik its necessary to apply sunscreen but is reapplying really necessary?

What do you recommend for dark sunken under eyes… I don’t have puffiness

[@minervarose7664]

Same issue 😔 i think it is a lot harder to address than puffiness though (i could be wrong)

[@krystenhayden2516]

Ive heard quite a few people have had some issues with the dynamic retinol. Its so weird though because i consider myself a little on the sensitive side and i have had no issues but I am only using it twice a week with some serious calming in between so thats probably why. I imagine shes using the toner on the round to waste less product? Ive started just spritzing some into my hand otherwise i feel like i need like 5 spritzes😂

[@susanvee1]

I definitely need a skin care routine outside of tretinoin…which I’ve used for 30 years. Is any ingredient going to up the ante at this point?

[@corinnedavis6812]

I’m sorry we can’t just drop the word murder and walk away. I NEED A STORYTIME

[@sevenes7]

[@msk-qp6fn]

Aye aye agree

[@evinkobatan953]

One of my friends told me that we have to use a cleanser the day we are using SPF and if we are not there will be residue on the skin. So I was wondering if that true or not. Bcs I used to think sunscreens moisturize the skin and should sit with it.

[@madhulikamishra3721]

Love your videos ❤ Wanted to ask, I have normal skin and would like to add products (ingredients) to my skincare routine which hydrates my skin, give it a glow and glass skin like texture. Would love to have your advice. ❤

[@marcellina4270]

3.5% retinol !? Wow ! I can barely tolerate 1% ! Honestly , putting such a high percentage, in the a.m , especially b4 a flight - not a good idea !

[@krystenhayden2516]

It's actually a 3.5% Retinol + squalane blend. They don't disclose the Retinol strength on its own for whatever reason. If it is 3.5 it's definitely diluted by the other ingredients. I haven't had issues with it but I've heard some people have including one of my coworkers.

Can you make me a skincare routine and critique my current one??

[@logophilelyss4390]

I have lupus, I have the butterfly rash, and it has nothing to do with that I don't think. I'm able to AHA, BHA, benxoyl peroxide, retinoid, ginseng, aloe, and more all in one night, as long as I keep the AHA BHA and retinoids to every other night. I think it's just different skin, very sensitive in general maybe.

[@FransceneJK98]

Cassandra, why don’t you create an app where we can scan skincare products and it’ll tell us if it’s Cass-Approved or not and if not, why by highlighting the ingredients in it that you don’t like. It would be soo helpful for us instead of remembering what you said bout x product in each video. And if it’s not approved by you cuz you may not have reviewed it yet, users can scan the products front and back and submit it for your review.
