Yes! Tanning from the sun or tanning on the bed? Either way there is some damage done to the skin so I’ll focus on exfoliation, laser as well as sun protection.

@@mein40 tanning from the sun. I will look forward to this video:)

Let us know how it works!

It is the Medicube Age R Booster device. :) I liked it but now I have moved onto the Perfectio because the LED lights are stronger.

Wow, thank you! This is such a compliment and I appreciate your kindness!

Yes! It’s something that I still stick with - even though it’s more of a superstition isn’t it? :)

So great to hear it is working for you!! Thanks for letting us know!

Steam from the shower is beneficial, but if you are conscious about water conservation, I suggest do all your washing (including shaving and hair wash) in a really steamy shower and as the last step, you can exfoliate once your skin is fully soaked in water.

@@mein40 ok thank you 🙏🏼

Hello! Great question. I wash mine using soap and I hang dry. In the sun is best to avoid bacteria growth.

They aren’t labeled as antibacterial but if washed afterwards using natural soap and hanging in the sun will kill any harmful bacteria.

It really does give the skin glow @whitneys7483

Yes! The rinds are tasty but also loaded with the antioxidants!

I wash it in warm water after each use to makes sure there are no skin cells left. Then I dry (in the sun when possible). It lasts a long time too. Putting it in the washing machine may cause damage to the towel but it can also snag other items in the washing machine so I tend not to do that.

I use either Beautycounter hand soap or bar soap made with shea butter or olive oil.

@@mein40 thank you 😊

I’ll take the compliment! (I had to look up “ASMR” 😆)

Just incase you dream of being at the beach

This is actually the morning routine. At night I double cleanse to remove the SPF then apply a thick layer of cream like a mask.

Thank you too! I appreciate your comment!

I do this every day in the morning and for nighttime I layer more of the cream to hydrate while sleeping!

How interesting! Tunsian women must have smooth skin too!

Hi Diana! I recommend wash and then patting dry the face before the pads so that the ingredients are not diluted from the water.

@TryMyMartini what a lovely compliment. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it.

Me too!! So happy for both of us!

@Trenton_D. I applauded you for making the switch. Hope it is going well!!

@@mein40 yeah I'm doing great and feeling better than ever!!!!

Thanks for information about macha tea 😊

My understanding is that there is an abundant supply of Jeju Energy water. If you want to learn more about the ingredients and the science www.exploreriman.com is a great resource.

The airy formula is much better and there is no white cast. I recommend it!

@lexifresh1552 aw. Thank you! I keep trying to help. I appreciate you reading them! Means a lot that you subscribed. I just filmed an updated Italy towel video. Excited to share! Stay tuned

@brandibanks6065 so great to hear! We are the same age and I agree that healthy skin is in!!

Depending on whether your skin feels dry - if your skin is not tight, you can save the moisturizer for nighttime and apply sunscreen which is also moisturizing and saves a step in the busy mornings!

Hi @SugaSwag, I love moisturizing right after the shower to lock in the hydration from the shower. I like naturally scented, or no scented products like pure aloe vera (hotter weather), shea butter (dry colder weather) or clean products since the skin on our body covers alot of surface area!

common activities for people in their 40s!

Glass facials are everywhere. But in our 40s, I try to look for facials that use higher quality products than what I would use at home, clean ingredients and tools like masking or LED. I base mein40 facials on the Korean way to include all, plus tea ritual to promote glass glow from within.

I am not sure about shingles, but active charcoal is known to have detox benefits, so best to ask your doctor who is helping you heal. I heard shingles can be painful so I wish you speedy recovery!

@appuz37 Try soaking your body longer and in warmer water. Your fingers should get wrinkly like prunes after you soak a bit more, then the dead skin should roll off easily! Thanks for watching my video!

@@mein40 thank you for clarifying my doubt. I'll definitely try it out and give you feedback. Thank you so much. Loved your video.

@@appuz37 I appreciate you watching and your thoughts!!

How wonderful to hear. A matcha every morning helps get me up earlier and without the caffeine crash. I appreciate you watching and would love recommendations for matcha powders.

Thanks for the msg, and so true! As far as matcha "recommendations," the brand I having been loving for everyday teas/lattes, is "Everyday Matcha" (by Sencha Naturals.) It is a blend of 1st harvest "ceremonial" with 2nd harvest "culinary." (To me, "ceremonial" grade means just that, & it's best reserved for special occasions lol.) Other hacks I found in my short matcha journey so far; 1. A YETI insulated mug to keep it hot longer, (in seafoam green to match my matcha lol.) 2. A CORDED milk frother, (as I learned the hard way that batteries go FAST in battery powered ones.) 3. And lastly, to keep matcha powder fresh, I JUST picked up the (1.9 qt rectangle size) Oxo airtight container, which stores PERFECTLY the 12 ounce bulk bag of Sencha Naturals "Everyday!" (I store it in bag to block light.) My daily latte recipe is 3/4 cup hot water, 1/4 cup whole milk, & 1/2 tsp of matcha powder! @@mein40

Yes, there are different generations for different formulations.

How generous! Thank you!

Thank you too

Misting is a great practice if it’s a mist with clean ingredients. I love all mists over makeup and this one is great. Since then I’ve discovered other ones so if you are interested in more hydration let me know and I’ll send you my favourites.

Hi @celindaporterfield4999. Have you received and tried the products? I have been away and resumed editing. I will release it this week! Thank you for your interest and patience!

Yes, I have my product!! Look forward to your upcoming video!

@@celindaporterfield4999 the edits have been taking a while! How is your routine coming along?

This took a while longer! studio.kzfaq.infoC2JVffCN0Uw/edit

Hi @deeznutz. I’ve heard and read comments that the mitt can be too small for some people’S hands. My tip has been to scrub in one direction so that the mitt doesn’t slide off. But if you mean you aren’t seeing the dead skin cells coming off, it may mean you need a deeper soak of your skin. If you are showering then try warmer water until your fingers prune. Also, sometimes it takes a few tries to get skin to roll off. Especially if you’ve never exfoliated with the mitt before. Please let me know more details of what’s not working if you need more help.

@@mein40 thank you 🩵

🙌 I’m here if you want recommendations!!

@@mein40 okay thanks

@stadtjer689 wow. What a generous compliment. Thank you so much!!
