Michelle Phan, OG beauty pioneer and Youtube personality with over one billion views. After her bitersweet departure from her Youtube channel two years ago, she just kind of fell off the radar and focused on Ipsy, a monthly beauty subscription service and EM Cosmetics, her makeup line.

Michelle just made an appearance on Harper's Bazaar, Go To Bed With Me series and we're ecstatic! It's not only refreshing to see the Beauty Queen herself but she also shared her step by step skincare regimen. This beauty episode just took us back to the good ol' days where it was all about beauty and nothing else.

Phan reveals that it was in her late twenties when her skin started feeling different and her skincare products were starting to feel"too harsh" for her skin so she started focusing more on skincare and less on piling on the makeup.

"I truly believe it's really sunscreen that has helped slow down aging for me" Michelle Phan says. After prioritizing in a good skincare regimen, she reveals she stopped using foundation as a "security blanket" and instead began exfoliating more to help the skin turnover rate which decreases as we age.

Michelle explains why skincare is important to her and says, "hopefully it inspires you guys to invest more on your skincare because I truly believe skincare is a great form of self care and we need more love and we need more self care for ourselves."

Let's delve right into her entire nighttime skincare routine!

"This is a cult favorite. It's really popular in Europe and a lot of my skincare junkie friends swear by this. The problem is that it's a little too strong for my skin - my skin is still considered young. This was made more for mature skin. What I do is I dilute it first, so I take my cotton pad and I add a little bit of water in it to dilute the solution."

She then adds a few drops of the lotion and pats over face.

"This is a good preventive product to help with any signs of large pores, sun spots or age spots - it just helps refines the skin."
