Iāve been getting botox from the time I was 21 and while itās helped, my new favorite anti aging treatment is radio frequency. It uses radio waves to stimulate collagen under the surface of the skin to tighten and lift. Iāve seen real results and I finally bought a machine on amazon that I use at home, at the med spa it can run you anywhere from $400 to $1200 per treatment. I suggest getting the same machine I have from Amazon.
truthfully i got into this because i watched spa asmr videos and i had to experience it myself. it can be kinda $$$ but i love all the gadgets and creams and things they do to my face so that i come out looking like the teletubbies sun baby. worth it!!
You have to haul your face around for your entire life, and thereās just no getting around it. As someone who is lurching perilously toward what us old people refer to as āthe wrong side of 40,ā I am here from your future to tell you not to be afraid, because you can retain your hotness with a little planning! Ever since my very best stage mother and personal BFF Lena Dunham publicly called me out for my elaborate skin care regimen, Iāve been getting questions, so letās start at the basics and move into the baroque⦠I donāt think expensive products really make a difference, but if you love them and they make you feel good, by all means waste the money you should be saving for treatments (more on that in a minute) on a 50 step routineāitās your life! I prefer to streamline because I am old and tired, so while I have definitely tried all of those ritzy oil cleansers and I DO LIKE THEM, in general I think Cetaphil and a microfiber cloth is fine. I usually only wash my face at night and follow it up with some Retin A mixed with a nice heavy moisturizer or oil, and I seal the whole shit in with Aquaphor before going to sleep on a special pillow that doesnāt deform my face. The morning is when things get complicated, because I am a firm believer in all of those gadgets that dermatologists tell you donāt work: I like a red light mask followed by either microcurrent, a muscle stimulation device, or radio frequency, and I follow that up with a CE ferulic serum, hyaluronic acid, moisturizer, and sunscreen. Take your collagen and a vitamin D-K supplement every day, and stay the fuck out of the sun!
I got a SolaWave last month and I pick it up almost nightly. It's this futuristic wand thing that combines microcurrents (tea) with red light therapy (wig) to make your skin....better? It gets warm and vibrates while you lightly wave it over your skin. I kept seeing it in Instagram ads so to try the real thing is very satisfying. You know, after watching complete strangers get paid to talk about how they don't have wrinkles anymore because of it. Wonderful! I'm luckily not old enough to haveĀ thatĀ many wrinkles, but I think it does even out tone and make my skin tighter? All I know is that I've tried Gua Sha and it was very hard to stick to. I think this has a similar vibe of being something-you-Do-for-your-Skin, but it's more futuristic and does the work for you. For my aesthetic-oriented people, the wand itself is this gorgeous brushed ombre metal and it looks swag on a nightstand.
I keep re-purchasing this perfume (the pink one). Itās really femme and cunt. It smells bight and fruity. The Korean girls at my old boarding school used to wear it all the time and I always loved their vibe; they were rich, pretty, and had the best plastic surgery. Boys love it because it smells girly and innocent. Itās really important to smell good so people will respect you.
If you want to look cool and impressive learn to roll the perfect joint. Men think this really sexy and women like it too. Itās a really important skill. Itās always so annoying when youāre with someone who doesnāt roll a good joint. Donāt be a fucking loser roll a joint the proper way and maybe it will help you get laid.
I used to avoid this fancy french bistro in Soho at all costs but now Iām obsessed. The food is reliable and if you eat alone theyāll bring you a free glass of champagne. Also the owner permanently banned James Corden from dining there and that makes me love it even more. Fuck that fat pig James Corden.
