Also Omar is sporting a quarantine haircut by me! Very proud of my soft sculpture skills 🙋🏻‍♀️

Omar is a perfect example of a man that doesn't care about skincare like those of us who are obsessed with it do and who isn't interested in what a lot of us "skin care enthusiasts" are and I love his honesty! This is real life! It's so interesting to learn about the things that are important to him that many of us wouldn't ever even think about. We all must be willing to see different perspectives to understand each other and each other's needs better. This is important in all of our relationships. I love how you two showed this so beautifully! 💕

It's so sweet how her boyfriend pays attention to everything she says. My husband would just roll his eyes at me at even the slightest mention of anything skincare, lol.

[annika]

Half-tempted to show this to my husband, half-scared there will be demand for twisty-tops 😂

[JuiciXD]

The side 👀 whenever Omar was explaining his sordid past. 😂

Also when we got to the sunscreen portion and he named his favorite I was like damn he a $$$$ b 😅

[simonsaysism]

I recently realized my boyfriend was using bar soap for his whole body and face, so I found a body wash for myself that would be gentle enough for the face and offered to let him use it too. I also offer him some of my sunscreen anytime we go anywhere - sometimes he accepts, sometimes he doesn't, but at least now he's wearing it more than he used to. Now if only I could get him to start using floss..

[sal_alaa]

05:55 his face when you said you're sneaking actives into his skin 😂

[pinkies]

I love this. Forget about ingredients and results. The key is a cool twisty top. Take note brands. He actually does have a point there!

[gwhitcom]

This was the cutest! Omar had great eye contact with the camera - he is a natural! And I really enjoyed both of your descriptions!

Hilarious! Recently, I was horrified to learn that my 68yr old Dad's nighttime "routine" was to wash his face with Soft Soap liquid hand soap. I immediately sent him a basic cleanser and moisturizer via Amazon that he could repurchase at any drugstore and although he claims he's been using them, it's quite possible they're collecting dust.

The outtakes are gold!

I need to get my husband on a routine. He’s such a guy in the way he thinks so I need to start thinking like he does to recommend some good products.

[RedLya]

Michelle’s face of disappointment is too much!! 😂😂🤣🤣🤣 the shame, Jk! Lol XD I’m glad ur bf has better skin and routine! Hope u guys stay safe and well ☺️💜

[sophiak]

Such a cute video!! My little brother actually asked me for skincare help while I was back at home during the lockdown, so for his birthday I set him up with a basic routine. He’s stuck to it and now his acne has massively cleared up he’s feeling a lot more confident about his skin. It made me so happy, thanks to Labmuffin and Doctorly for giving me the knowledge to be able to help him out 🥰

[pankreas]

- and it felt amazing!
- what do you mean by amazing?
- dry.
🤣🤣
Edit: He's SO EXCITED about the twisty top lol lovely

[ughcam]

So many of my family members have horrifying routines, my aunt just uses shampoo runoff from her hair on her face and she uses a exfoliating glove on her face several times a week, my dad just uses 3 in 1 everywhere, it truly gives me chills.

[MyPlantsAgainstTheWorld]

1:54 “… he actually enjoys digging it out.” *look of PhD based disappointment and slight disgust* :D

[werm]

It's so interesting to me to hear about everyone's funny deal breakers. Like "The product works well, I just don't like [insert thing unrelated to how effective it is]" lol

For me, it's smells. My skin is happy with fragrance, but my nose is _not._ I have to push myself to get through the Neutrogena Hydroboost Water Gel, because I just hate that it smells so strong! Can't wait till it's finished and I can go back to the Gel Cream. Not as light, but it never made me break out and it hasn't got a smell.

And Garnier's miscellar waters are the worst! They work fine, but they're just too much for my nose.

I feel like smell _shouldn't_ be a deal breaker, especially because my skin isn't very sensitive, but I just hate it!

[logiclanguagelearningFrench]

He is smart and gorgeous! So happy someone as cool as you has someone like this.

[jusdoriange]

my partner doesn't use something special for the face but lately the "body cleansers" we have are mostly facial ones that didnt make the cut for me and I do see improvement! baby steps

[LittleMonstr]

This is literally me with my boyfriend 😂 I’ve tried so many times but he just can’t get himself to do it lol. Although I DID get him to use conditioner because previously he was using 2 in 1 head and shoulders and nothing else and he saw that my conditioner made my hair less tangled so now we use the same conditioner 😅
