Ciara's Guide to Glowing Skin and Power Brows

[light music]

Hey everybody, it's your girl Ciara and I am back.

Yes, and I'm excited.

I'm gonna show my everyday skincare routine,

plus my makeup no makeup look.

Rings come off.

I am sharing with you guys for the first time

my skincare line, OAM Skin, which stands for On A Mission.

I'm gonna start with the hydrating cleanser,

and watch how it's a little bit of a mountain

that happens here.

I tend to be more on the dry side,

and what is really special about our line in particular

is that we have the Tri-C Pro-Peptide.

You get three unique doses of vitamin C.

Helps with the brightening of your skin,

the glow up of your skin.

It helps with also the pigmentation,

the evenness of your skin.

Now I'm gonna use my brightening pads.

Also a little bit of exfoliation that happens.

You remove the dead cells.

I was the girl that used body soap on my face.

I used body lotion on my face.

And then my best friend and makeup artist, Yolanda,

she told me, Ciara, you need to work on

how you're taking care of your skin.

That is not it.

What you're doing is not it.

And she was right.

Understanding how game-changing it was

when I went from just using any kind of face wash

and lotion on my skin to actually using skincare,

I could see the difference

and I could see the consistency in my skin,

which was really important.

Another thing that I'm obsessed with in the process

of getting beautified is the eyebrows.

I feel like you don't have a face

without eyebrows being right.

So what I use is the Got2B Glue Gel,

and I love this because it secures the eyebrows.

You know how they say secure the bag? Secure the brow.

I take a little bit on my brush here, very lightly,

and then I just go

and I get those little bitty details there.

I'm gonna start off with my eye cream.

This is liquid gold for the face.

There is a very potent amount of vitamin C in the serum

and it releases micro-doses of the vitamin C

throughout the day.

So I do mine like this.

Next up that I'm gonna do is my face roller.

What I learned that's important is that when you rub it,

you don't wanna go back and forth.

You wanna rub up here,

and what it does is it helps lift the muscle.

My world's always going really fast.

I am a mom on the go.

But I will say that doing this part of the process

day and night is a really good feeling,

and I'm really big on, if we don't love on ourselves,

we cannot love, we can't love properly.

Face mask by 111SKIN.

Feel like I'm doing a music video.

Oh, eh.

Okay, now it's time we take this thing off.

Russ actually, I will say, has been doing better

with his skincare routine.

He has, I think, enjoyed watching me do my thing

by building up my skincare line

and he's also let me try it on him one time,

which is really sweet.

He's the best support.

OAM Radiance Moisturizer.

So I use the Murad SPF 45 on the skin.

That layer of protection is so important,

and speaking of layer of protection,

I sometimes like to wear hair units,

which you guys know

'cause I'm all about protecting my hair as well,

and so I have a nice little line

that's happening right here from Lacey.

We're gonna call her Lacey.

I'll get into how I'm gonna even that out.

I have to use my girl Lala,

her Inala Hair Power Potion for the edges.

She talked to me about her really great story

of using the rice water for her edges.

The idea is to help to make the edges stronger,

to help improve the growth.

I use this Yummy Skin Danessa Myricks face toner.

In the early days when I first started,

especially and even when I was young, being in high school,

I used to feel like you need makeup

to really feel like your most beautiful self

and I didn't like that feeling because I'm like,

first of all, I have to figure out how to do my makeup.

But also too, I felt like I was relying on something

that wasn't real, and I was like, let me challenge myself

to really just love who I am naturally,

to feel like I'm just as fly, I'm just as beautiful

without the dramatic makeup looks.

And I do get to do a lot in what I do.

I have my Nyx palette right here.

My favorite thing.

I'm gonna take this red peachy color at the bottom

and spread it all over the face as a base

and it helps, again, to even out skin.

It helps also do color correcting as well.

When I listen to music, I like calming music.

I love Sade.

I love worship music as well.

Maverick City, they're one of my favorite groups.

Then especially when it's about to rev up,

I kind of like quiet,

'cause it just helps me to set my mind right.

I'm gonna take my base color for my skin

and I'm going to use it on top here.

I'm gonna take this lighter top color on the right,

and I sometimes mix the two, so I mix this with this

to make the perfect pop under the eye.

I'm gonna take some of the darker color here, mix it up.

Even some of the red as well, and that brown.

I'm gonna try to go in here and even out the skin tone.

All right, so now it's time to seal the deal

with the Danessa Myricks powder.

My inspiration, I can say for fashion, I was that girl,

my grandmother.

She loved, she dressed to the nines every day.

Everything was dramatic,

whether it was if she wore hair pieces.

She had her own seamstress, everything was customized,

and for me, she really inspired me

and I think what I really loved about her

is that you learned how self expression

is the best expression,

being who you are, embracing who you are.

Now my next step in the process is my bronzer,

I'ma do Makeup by Mario Bronzer.

One of my favorite looks, it's hard to pick one,

but I will say that, in totality, my last video for Jump.

14 looks in the video were just crazy.

I have to give so much love to my glam team.

All right, next up, what I'm gonna get into is my blush.

One of my favorite looks in the video,

I loved that I had my platinum hair

when I was on top of the car

making that thing jump literally.

Now what I'm doing is I'm highlighting my cheeks,

so I have the iconic London blush and highlight palette.

Now it's time to line the lips.

So you can give the lips a little drama.

You know how they say, save the drama for your mama?

Don't save this drama right here.

With the highlight, the iconic highlight.

This is one of my favorite colors that I use every day.

Little classic eyelash curl.

My daughter Sienna loves makeup.

It's so cute.

And her and Russ have this funny game they play

where she's like,

Daddy's gonna be mad 'cause I'm wearing makeup.

And then, literally we were at training camp the other day

and Russ was coming off the field

and she brought her little makeup kit with her.

At the end, she had her makeup on and she was like,

Daddy, I have on my makeup.

And he was like, No!

It's this thing that they do all the time, it's so cute.

Back to the highlight and I'm going to take it.

Dancing is a big part of who I am and how I express,

and it's a part of self care too sometimes.

Dancing is like working out.

If you don't feel like working out,

you can also dance and move and still get a good sweat on.

Sometimes I think working out can be overwhelming,

so you gotta find your unique way to do it,

and dance, for me, is sometimes a way to do that

and I love dancing.

Setting spray, 'cause it's really fun.

Shake it up a little bit. I'ma set this thing, all right.

It wouldn't be right if I wasn't fresh with that thing.

Got the R&C fragrance.

Me and my husband, we created this.

R for him, C for me.

Spray it on here.

I do a little thing.

And then I do a little, but we ain't doing that right now,

you know what I'm saying? This was a lot of fun.

Now it's time for me to go and do better things, baby.

Peace.

Bye!
