I think showing my family, showing my culture, showing my gayness makes people so proud.
Yeah.
What's so powerful.
Like, representation is probably one of the few things that gets me emotional.
Don't tell the men.
It'll ruin my street cred, bitch.
Hey, everyone, and welcome back to another episode of the Comment Section show starring me, your favorite.
Who cares about me?
We're on to the wonderful guest.
Everyone's favorite part of every episode.
It's all right.
You can admit it to me.
It's fine.
Today's very special guest is the one and only, the ledge, the icon.
Patrick Star
What's up?
A legend.
Oh my God, thank you so sweet.
A social media OG.
I'm so happy to have you.
Thanks for calling me old.
The old raggedy bitch, Patrick Star.
I'm so old on TikTok.
I'm a million years.
You're like new.
I know I'm new to the social media,
but like this age girl is not.
It's so funny because I posted a birthday thing
of myself saying it was my birthday.
And I was like, oh, I'm 27.
Everyone was like, 27.
You're 27?
27?
27?
Two steps from the grave, bitch, retire.
Then I'm just a cryptkeeper at this point.
Drinking the fountain of youth, apparently.
I know, look at us, dress for our own girls, apparently.
I'm so happy to have you.
You're a legend.
Oh, thank you.
I mean, I just got up, tucked my dick back and put on some lashes for you hoes up in here.
That's why I was late.
And I'm grateful.
No, I'm so honored.
Anytime I get to meet you.
I bumped into you at the red carpet.
How LA, right?
I know.
So,
LA with a family.
She had a fucking entourage.
Let me tell you.
That's what I actually,
you know what's funny.
That's actually what I love about you
because I know you take your family
a lot of places too.
I know you take your team.
Yes.
And I love that.
I always do that too.
It's just like a comfort.
It's almost like a comfort blanket for me.
Yes.
I like need them with me.
I'm like, can I get a plus seven?
Yes.
Okay, plus two.
Final offer.
Me.
Yeah.
On other brand trips.
Other influencers would be like, how did you get like a plus five?
And I'm like, I don't know, suck some dick, girl.
I don't know.
Get your shit together.
Put in the work is what I did.
I did that at VidCon.
I had like my whole team and my family.
I love it.
I had lots of creators.
How did you have a plus seven?
I was like, I grew up.
I worked like a dog.
That's what I did, bitch.
You know, I put it in the hours.
That's what I did.
But you have been on social media for so long and you're like such a huge name in the beauty world.
So like, but now you're like Ms. CEO, girl.
Yes.
CEO founder, one-size beauty.
The best.
This is not a joke.
Your products are A-1 bitch.
I use them all the time.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah, my hair makeup artist.
Not sponsored.
Not sponsored.
On today's episode, we have Patrick Sterberg.
Don't cut this out, please.
I need the promotion.
It's okay.
back,
back.
Today we have
one size
for you.
Stop.
How natural was
that integration
you guys?
Bitch,
I'm literally so shocked.
I did not know
you were going to see that.
I'm fucking so.
I was like,
let me be fucking Ellen
on her show
or over whatever.
Everyone look under your seats.
There's something under there.
This is for me.
Yes.
This bitch is heavy.
Yes.
Oh my God.
I'm so.
From my heavy girl
to heavy bag.
Gooped and gagged, bitch.
Yeah.
So much.
Yes.
Yes.
Kick off 2020.
with that and this month or around this time um 2023 marks my 10 year anniversary on
YouTube no way since starting my little gay channel being a little gay boy and all of that yeah
a beauty influencer guru CEO thank you bad bitch thank you how do you think social media as a whole
especially in the beauty world i feel like it's shifted dramatically with the introduction of like
tic talk and everything so like have you seen things change a lot when it comes to the beauty
influencer world or has it kind of stagnated, stayed the same?
You know, a few influencers have asked me, like, even last night at an event, like, what do you
think?
Is it the same?
Is it different?
Yeah.
I said it, the premise is actually the same.
Really?
Communication and connection, right?
We all want to communicate and we all want to connect.
The means of communicating and connecting have changed.
Yeah.
You know, if you think about our parents or grandparents' age, it was like, who.
course back in letters and by candlelight and the quill writing love letters to each other
and we're just going through Grindr or texting, you know.
I don't know, but you guys are home.
But yeah, I think if you want to connect with people and communicate, the means of
communicating and connecting have vastly changed.
But if I think about how we're using the mediums and the bridges,
like TikTok, like social media,
it's just a matter of just
understanding. Yeah, it just
like shifts a little, but the essence
stays the same, right? Yeah.
I think too with you, like,
because you've grown so far past
social media, like now you're like a whole
brand bitch, a whole CEO, a whole
celeb, like, do you think that
when you look, are you like, do you still
love makeup the same? Has it changed?
Has your, like, love for makeup change,
maybe in the sense that you love more on the product side,
like, because you obviously have your own brand
and you create your own brand.
Do you still love doing looks?
Or is it kind of the same?
I love makeup.
I love the beauty industry
because it has literally changed my life.
Yeah.
And when I meet people, to this day,
you know, I'm in aesthetician school right now.
Yes.
And my classmate, she has a niece,
and she's 13.
And she told her niece that she's in school
with a TikTok or YouTuber.
And I was like,
she's not going to know who the fuck I am.
And she was like, oh my gosh.
So she came in to get a facial and a brown lamination.
And she was like shaking.
She's like, I know who you are.
And I'm like, you're 13.
What, what the hell are you watching a 33 year old fat, bald Asian man on social media for?
And she's like, no, your makeup is so good.
I watch you at school.
And it's crazy that makeup has allowed me to connect.
And even furthermore, Patrick Starr, the idea of Patrick Starr, this
character that I created 10 years ago has saved me, you know, because I was supposed to be a nurse.
I was supposed to do something completely different. But as I've come to learn over the years,
my presence online has been able to connect with people that don't have the opportunity. That's
why I think showing my family, showing my culture, showing my gayness, makes people so proud.
Yeah. What's so powerful. Like, representation is probably one of the few things that gets me emotional.
Don't tell the men. It'll ruin my street credit. But, like,
It's so, it just speaks so much, so many volumes.
Like, especially when you're being so authentically yourself and, like, not being afraid.
Because social media is rancid, vile, awful.
It's as beautiful as it is, it can be really, really terrible too, because terrible people exist in every, you know, community.
The online one is no exception to that.
So the fact that you're so prominent still, even that you're hitting 10 years now, you're still so incredibly prominent because the representation is so powerful.
I think that's amazing.
Thank you.
And also you change paths, girl.
Like, you were supposed to go one way, you went the other way.
Yes.
Now you're on social media.
Same with me.
I did not think in a million years.
Did you ever think this was going to happen?
Hell fucking no, girl.
But, you know, everything around me, like, I want everyone to know at home.
Like, everything and everyone around me was against me being Patrick Starr.
Really?
And if I think about the idea of construct and, you know, generational expectation from, like, parents.
especially being Filipino or any type of culture you're coming from.
There's a certain expectation religiously too.
And so when I think about Patrick Starr, no one raised Patrick Starr.
I was like, I can be, that bitch can be whoever the fuck that person wants to be.
Yeah.
And so it was kind of like a saving persona for me and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Yeah.
And it gives you a chance to express yourself in a completely different way.
And that's so powerful, I think, especially since gender is a couple.
construct. It's not real babe.
Yeah. So we can do be
whatever it is we want to be and we don't
have to adhere to any one box.
Just because the white man says
too bad. Yes. Yes.
But speaking of changing paths, like
you said you're in aesthetician school.
How's that going? Are you having fun? Are you
having a blast? Listen, when you ask me
earlier about like, do I still love makeup?
I think when I think about the idea of makeup and
being transformative, I was like, I just
want to like connect to people.
Yeah. And I think doing makeup for 10 years,
Like how many fucking smoky eyes can I do online and catch a chat, bitch?
Like how many full coverage foundation tutorials and baking tutorials and last tutorials can I do?
And so I was like, you know, I think I really want to go skin deep and really find out the meaning of like beauty.
And when I think about health, mental health, emotional health, physical health, you know, I've lost 50 pounds so far.
Period.
And I thought about my physical health affecting like my emotional health.
health and my mental health too.
And I was like, how do I align all of these ideas of wellness into what I already do?
Yeah.
So it becomes me.
And esthetician is an extension of beauty.
We go skin deep.
So I was like, if I want to, and, you know, pissing me off like T, T, T, T, T, these fucking celebrities.
Skin care.
Celebrity T.
The celebrity skincare brands.
Oh, really?
Chow.
What?
I'm not going to drop name.
But we all know who they are.
And so I was like, you know what, if they're reaching out to me to promote their shit, like, I might as well be the credible bitch.
Period.
Because they're not going to school.
Yeah.
I mean, I'm sure they have the money and the scientists and all that.
I was like, if I really want to fuck with my audience and have a credible point of education at 33, I was like, I'm going to go back to school, bitch.
I think that's so powerful.
I'm school tonight, by the way, so I better not be late.
I think that's so powerful
I think that's what's beautiful
is that you're talking about how
you have essentially conquered the beauty industry
in terms of makeup.
Like you've been there, done that,
conquered it, proven time and time again
you're an expert in the field.
But now you're like, you're tackling
a different like expression of beauty
which is natural beauty, which is skin care.
Right? Because I think a lot of times
some people, man,
like terrible men or like pic-mees
will think that you
can't have one without the other.
Like, you're either a chapstick and mascara girlie or you're a full beat down bitch.
Like, you can't be both.
But you're proving that it is possible to express yourself in both different, in both ways.
Listen, to all those pygmy assholes out there, with or without makeup, I still got a dick.
And my bank account is still the motherfucking same.
Period.
And that's poetry, bitch.
Literally, makeup is a one size fits.
It's for everybody.
Yeah, literally.
Yeah.
And it goes far beyond.
gender or sexuality or anything like that.
Sometimes I'll see videos of dudes and they're like,
take off that makeup and let's see if you're just as blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Or take your swimming.
Yeah, take your swimming with the one size onto down.
Setting Spray, bitch.
That shit does not fucking move.
Lackard.
Literally.
When I tell you, I'll go dive head first into the ocean and come out looking exactly like this.
The hair might be a little different but the beat will stay the same.
Can I just say really quick?
You are, like to camera, this bitch is so,
fucking stunning in person.
On the right carpet, I was like, my brother Peter, I was like, Peter, I look like a toe.
She's so, you were tall.
And your mom was rocking her red lip, badass bitch.
I was like, let me stand behind this bodyguard right now.
It's going to fucking knock me.
It was the enchanted Disney premiere.
Yeah, it was so fun.
You're just like glowing, your energy.
It's just like, I think ever since your success and.
on social media, you can tell that you have
a good spirit, you deserve to be at the Disney premiere
and you deserve every amount of success
and you're fucking stunning. Thank you.
And I'm like, fuck her.
Four for four, bitch.
I love it.
Same with you. I couldn't
I will say this. When I saw you at the premiere,
I was like, your makeup
looked so good, bitch.
And the fact that I know you did it yourself is crazy
because not me. That you have me
on tenfold. I have to hire someone.
Well, I owe you a facial. Yes. Yes. We talked
makeup and yes I have the whole family I think it's so great that you're getting into skin care now and you're like really trying to understand like where it starts and then obviously makeup just enhances what you already have and you know it's so funny that that ever since I started announcing like skincare here and there I need credit for school like so I have to ask like friends and family to come in to do electrical facials waxing yeah back facials like all the thing but um so some some boys on ticotty talk are willing to come in and
And I'm just like, that just goes to show that people that are influencing, like, straight men that are on TikTok trending or like, hey, like, can you help you with my skin or my acting?
And I'm like, oh, I could do X, Y, and Z.
And I'm just like, there ain't no, like, delineation or way to look at beauty.
It's for everybody.
Self care is the best care.
Especially skin care.
Yes.
Oh, my gosh.
The way I've, like, highly encouraged cis head white men or men in general to just care about your.
skin just a little.
I put my man on skin care too and he has never looked back.
Yeah, I put him on a hair care routine.
Oh, period.
Girl, we got a turby twist and everything.
I love it.
Sometimes I wear my turby twist and he's like, that's mine.
Oh, you're using my turby twist.
And I'm like, okay, Drew bought them.
So it's fine.
Like, they came in a two pack.
I'm like, they look exactly the same.
He's like, I know for a fact that's mine because it's not stained.
I'm all okay.
You don't have to drag me.
Listen, you came here for a fight?
That's what you came here for?
I love that he's in it
Yeah he loves it
So cool
Oh yeah girl
I think there's nothing
More attractive than someone who
Takes care of themselves like that
Like cares enough about themselves
So like be like hey I want to wash my face
I want to wash my ass
And you know I've been saying this year
To anyone like asking me for advice
On business and influencing
Like the greatest gift you can give yourself
Is the gift of self-awareness
Yeah
Like even if you just wash your
Wipe your ass bitch
crusty dusty
comb your hair even if you don't have a hairline
like come out
yeah it's okay come on just do it
run it through there feel the combs on the hair skin
me every day
Patrick's bald so
listen it's okay
they endorse me you endorse me
yes we out here but self-awareness
I think is like the most beautiful thing
and when guys take care of themselves
girls and everyone
has has the
right to feel beautiful
and do that it's like so powerful
No one can fuck with you at that point.
Period.
And there's no one way to look or feel like to look beautiful or be perceived as beautiful,
which is what the terrible men who hate me, they're always like, you're ugly.
And I'm like, and you're broke.
So.
Period.
Oh, bummer.
You're broke in both departments, looks and the bank account bitch.
And all of a sudden, I'm a bad person.
All of a sudden I took it too far.
Yeah, I tell people they're ugly all the time.
And I'm like, because they say like, oh, like you're ugly.
You're blah, blah, blah, blah.
And then I say, well, that's rich coming.
for me because you're also ugly.
So, like, I don't care.
And then that's just, like, the meanest thing
they could ever hear from someone.
Listen, they're just weak.
That's what I'm saying.
You've been around long enough, I'm sure.
I can't even imagine the amount of hate you've gotten over the last 10 years.
Oh, all the time when I'm going to show my age,
the first time that Instagram launched videos.
It was 15 seconds long.
That was literally what...
They found you?
Yeah, they found me.
Terrible people.
And I think the first,
one because I was doing YouTube and I was like so anti like Instagram video I was like what the
fuck is us it was 15 seconds it was a square only do you remember that I think so yeah oh my god so then
I remember I think because it was like a new way of posting on the platform it was like preferred
on the explore page and they were just rolled out video yeah and I think it got like a million
views in like an hour or two and then overnight I gained 25,000 followers and there was like 35,000
thousand comments and I was like wait a damn me
let me try this again
every time I posted I would gain 25 to 35
000 um 25 to 35000
followers each time that's crazy
tens of thousands of comments yeah at the same time
I was like why is everyone posting the gun emoji
and the moon face and I was like
and the vomit and I was just like
this is so crazy
but I think had or not experienced prejudice
working at the mall like in a full
face of makeup like people staring and just
snickering and talking shit.
Like it was, I think it prepared me for,
and also being bullied at school,
it just prepared me for being online.
So you're built different.
Yeah.
It didn't mean, it means even less.
Clearly.
It means even less coming from a faceless profile online, honestly.
Yeah.
And then if you do find what they look like,
you're like, that's why you feel that way.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I think 2023.
I would hate me too if I looked like you.
Period.
I mean, like, 23, like, flex your happiness.
Yeah.
Flex your happiness.
No one can fucking stunt or shit on you.
Period.
And, you know, okay, so back to skincare.
Because obviously that's what our topic is going to be today because Patrick is a newfound expert.
Do we have a sponsor today?
I was like, I hear it.
Can we?
No sponsor today, actually.
But this is how, like, that's your new path, your new journey.
And I loved what you said about beauty being skin deep.
And it doesn't always have to look one way or fit into one particular box.
It can, like, be expressed in so many different ways, whether it's with,
like actual makeup products or just beautiful skin care in general.
So we're going to talk about skincare,
but more specifically how it's been very like gendered.
Right.
So like taking care of your skin is typically they're like,
oh, that's feminine to take care of your skin.
Like I've talked about this on the show in the past too
where some men like think it's like they think it's gay to wear sunblock
in general, but especially on your face.
I'm like, you think you're tough enough to fight.
the sun?
I don't know about that.
Like, you want to age like a grape?
I guess that's on you, but...
I think it's changing.
I think self-care is changing because the way that these famous, like, pretty
TikTok boys are coming up, I think when I started to look at, like, the way boys are
coming up into men on TikTok, like all the popular TikTok boys doing the dances, like,
I see it happening through working out, like, lift.
and I'm seeing like weightlifting TikTok and like gym talk and all of that.
And, you know, like all of them are like posting like gym stuff.
Yeah.
And I'm like, that's a form of beauty.
And that's a form of self care.
And I think it's just a matter of time until it transfers over to the face because
I hope so.
You can't have pecks with pimples, bitch.
The fuck?
The fuck you look like walking.
And then you want to be on the red carpet with us?
Looking like a cyst?
Bitch a fucking sift.
Bamb, come on.
I once told the kid who wrote,
he wrote some of the racist, most fat-phobic shit
ever to me once.
And then I told them, you know what?
I'd hate me too if I had,
my rosatio was that bad, bib.
I'd hate me too.
You know what, let's get you some retinal.
Get you some vitamin C, maybe.
Clear that right up.
Yeah.
He didn't get the joke at all,
but I ate him up.
He's not smart enough to get it,
but I ate him.
I said, if you knew, though.
Yeah, listen, listen,
I mean, you are doing the Lord's work here on Mother Earth,
getting these guys together.
It just baffles me, like, how you say, like, how are they reproducing on this earth?
I saw this one kid wrote something awful, like really, really awful,
relatively recently, actually, like a few days ago.
And he had a picture of himself, you know, terrible straight men.
They take some of the worst photos of themselves, like CSI last seen alive.
Like, have you seen this man, like a wanted poster?
They always look like their selfies.
And he had this picture.
And all I wrote back to him, I literally wrote,
how come I can see the plaque on your teeth and your back is to the sun?
That's a problem, bitch.
That's a problem.
I want to ask you.
Brush those teeth and then come back.
Literally.
Like, I want to ask you with your, do you have like a temper meter like that says, like,
I'm a pop off on this bitch.
Like, if you hit me, if you give me a five, like, you're going to fucking get it.
Or is it just natural?
Like, oh, I have the fucking time today.
Yeah, that's pretty much it.
Because for me, like, I...
It depends.
You have to, like, pick and choose.
Could it, could someone edit it in their wrong way?
I see it our fair share of drama and twist and turns and fan edits and drama channels.
Yeah.
Like, where they kind of take things out of context.
Yeah.
That happens to me all the time anyways.
So, especially with me and, like, the nature of what it is I do, like, they clip shit out of context all the time.
Like, I was with my friend Nita on the show, and we talked to it.
We talked about how men are like, women belong in the kitchen, blah, blah, blah.
like that 1950s rhetoric.
And then she said like, well,
and men are supposed to go to war and die
and here you are.
And they clip that at a context
and they're like, she doesn't care about vets.
What?
What?
What a bizarre thing to say?
That's why I was like, they do that anyway,
so I might as well be mean out the gate.
So it's just never, you know,
I will tell a joke, but I will never tell a lie.
So if I call you ugly,
move out of the way.
Okay, so we're talking about skincare.
Right, right. How it's been gendered and how the needle is moving, I would say, in terms of, like, some men being so much more comfortable expressing, like, that they like to take care of themselves, which I think is a wonderful thing.
They're just always terrible dudes being like, that's gay, blah, blah, whatever they say, like, about, yeah, being clean.
I don't know. They have something against it, apparently.
Yeah, I think, I think just mind your own fucking business.
That's what I think, too. It's free.
Yeah.
You know what I mean? It's free and not as common as it.
should be.
Yeah.
You make your money the way you make your money and we make our money the way we make our money
and look good at the same time.
Okay, so we're going to talk about basically the stigmas on skincare, why it shouldn't be
that way, but it is to some extent, especially on social media.
But so typically what we do in the comment section is we bring videos that I was tagged in,
bring them here that are applicable to our topic.
Kiki, laugh, make all the jokes about it.
So for this first video that we have, I just do little summaries of them.
A man is making a video showing his daily three-step morning skincare routine, which is cleanser, toner and serums, and sunscreen.
And I think that's- Hold on.
You act like I got my fucking license yet.
I'm still in school.
Who produced this segment?
I'm not licensed.
If I get this incorrectly.
Your teacher's watching.
They come out from behind.
You brought me makeup.
I brought your teacher.
You brought me in a fucking test.
This is your state board example.
today. Well, it sounds like that's a really great start to a skincare routine, honestly. Say it again
because I was, I was getting flashbacks from last night's class. It's like three steps.
Okay, three steps. Cleenser, toner slash serums and sunscreen at the end. Yeah, that's, that's fierce.
I think that's great. Yeah. Maybe throwing a moisturizer. Yeah, maybe an eye cream. A lot of men, a lot of men are
asking me like, oh, I need a good eye cream. Like eye cream. Really? Um, yeah. Yeah, because,
Especially when you're drinking.
Like if you think about these men going out and drinking,
the first thing to show signs of aging is the thinnest skin around your eyes.
It's the lips and also the eyes.
But the eyes are what we look at.
Yeah.
So always wearing eye cream is like a must.
That's good not me taking notes looking.
Okay, so some of the comments on this video, this is where the tea gets in there.
Okay.
But the first one says, a real man uses Vaseline.
Gay behavior starts here.
Vaseline for what?
Getting fisted, bitch.
Not that I would know.
Don't edit that, Drew.
I do.
I can confirm.
Fine.
A real man uses Vaseline on the face.
On the face.
If you have,
I feel like if you have oily skin,
that's a really bad idea.
Yeah, it's comedogenic as fuck.
Yeah, I was gonna clog your fucking porch.
Yeah.
Yeah, you go ahead and break out.
I mean, I guess if you, that's what you want.
I think, like, slugging is like, was like a trend.
Yeah, it was.
Yeah, it's like a trend to like trap your moisture on your face, but...
And also, I feel like it depends on your skin type too, though.
Yes, it also depends on your age.
Oh, okay.
Yes.
I realize when a lot of the trend of like retinoles, if you think about like where the idea
of retinoles are coming from, can I talk about skin for a little bit?
Yes, please do.
So what I learned in school is that you have to look at your skin type, you have to look at your age,
because when you're in your 20, 25, well, first of all, babies, when they're born, and they're just growing really, really fast.
So their skin turnover is every 7 to 14 days.
Oh, shit.
They're shedding skin really, really fast.
When you're in your 20 to 25, your skin is shedding probably every 28 days.
Oh, okay.
Now, the older you get, the slower your turnover and your skin is happening.
If you think about these companies that have older scientists and older women and men creating retinol for the public to see,
retinol is to increase cellular turnover in your skin.
So if you think about it, a lot of these kids that are in their 20, 21, 22, like, I need retinol because I need my skin to turn over.
It's like, and then like I'm breaking out.
It's like, bitch, your skin is already on a good cycle every 28 days.
And you're adding retinal to speed it up for what?
It's overkill.
Yeah.
So they're over turning over their skin.
It's getting irritated.
They're peeling too much.
So it just depends on the skin type.
It depends on the age.
So I would say maybe you start retinal maybe in your like mid-20s to like late 20s and slowly incorporate it because you're just going to keep like over-exfolating.
And that's also not something you use every single day.
No, especially if you're exfoliating too.
Yeah.
So, like, do I want to use retinol or retinae, which is a prescription to turn over the skin?
Or do you just need a good exfoliation on your skin?
So everyone's been like, oh, it makes sense.
Like, my friend was like, I'm using retinal or retina.
And I, like, a year ago, I was that bitch at my age.
And I have eczema, too.
So I had eczema, and I was like a retinal whore.
And I was like, what am I pale?
And my esthetician was like, babe, you're fine.
You need to stop.
Yeah.
But let's hydrate.
It's almost like doing too much.
That was me when I moved home from Hawaii because I lived in Hawaii for like five years when I was going to school there.
And the moisture in the air is so heavy because it's so humid there.
And I did not know that my skin was dry.
I thought my skin was oily.
Or like it's more a combo, but it leans towards dry.
I had no idea.
So then when I moved home, I'm still using really matifying like makeup products.
No oils or serums or anything like that.
that. No moisturizers, really. I was like
a $2 makeup white bitch. I'm not
proud of it, okay? But that's just
where I was at the time. And I
would like barely wash. I would just use a
cleanser and that's pretty much it. Girl, then I
wondered why my skin was losing its mind
when I moved back home. So much drier
hair. So my skin immediately like
shriveled up. It was so awful.
I also learned about two different
two different words like sensitive
skin and sensitized skin.
Sensitive skin is something that
you personally have a sensitivity
too. Sensitize is because of the environment. The sensitivity coming from the environment. So your skin
was sensitized because of your switch environmentally. Yeah. When I move or move, when I visit like really
humid places, like I was in Florida in September, my skin thrives, but I'm a sweaty
bitch. It's just like the ultimate humbling experience always. The skin looks great. I can't
stop sweating. It's awful. I'm like, I don't love humidity, but if the skin thrives, I might just have to go there.
Because then the beat looks great too when the skin feels good
Okay, so let's look at these other comments
This says this is a woman in the making
Start using tampons as well
I don't know
It's like literally three steps
It's a three step skincare
That's like their minimum
You know how long my skincare routine is
So long
Yeah I have a very extensive
skincare now that I'm in as a tissue school
I have the steamer
I have the towel
Oh nice
Yeah I'm that bitch I have a permanent
like attached to my mirror in case I just want to review anything.
You never know.
Yeah, you have to.
I mean, if you're in school, obviously, that would make me acutely aware of everything.
You're going to be so much too.
This is the classic case of, like, toxic masculinity where they're like, it's so, it's so
feminine to, like, wash your face, breast your teeth.
Yeah, it's, I mean, just brush your fucking teeth and skidado on, bitch.
Like, go jerk off to your grandma and go to bed.
Like, you're fine.
I think, too, like, some.
I don't know why you would ever find it feminine to like be clean.
You know what I mean?
To like take care of your skin to like want nice.
Like wise.
I don't understand.
The insecurities I think come from, you know, like their environment.
Yeah.
And what they're sensitized to too.
And it's just a matter of them being introduced to like social media to see this whole other immersive world.
That's why I think a lot of people want to be a transplant in LA because it's so diverse.
There's so much to do.
because in their conservative town,
they didn't have those, you know.
No kind of exposure to anyone or anything like that.
Yeah.
Yeah, I feel that.
I just think it's so like,
it's so bonkers to be like, that's so gay.
Yeah.
To like, where so.
Well, I am.
Didn't know.
So double whammy at that point.
Suck my dick.
Okay, this last comment says,
nah, I'm just washing my face.
That's all too, I'm, that's all I'm too lazy to have.
this all skin cares for girls
you know
be like yeah it's for girls
then suffer I guess
I can't save them all
you know or just leave your Amazon link
anytime we see them haters just put your little Amazon
a commission all this can be found in my Amazon store
yes yeah period
that's so that's all for girls
okay have a dirty face see if I care you want
you want black pores bitch that's on you
The amount, even on the gay bitches, oh my God, the amount of black kids that I see on the daily.
Are you just so much more aware of it now that you're in school?
I am.
Yeah.
It's like almost like pointing out like something that you just can't unsee at that point.
Yeah, I think in my generation, we could just see tracks now that I'm adjimicated.
I can see pores.
And I call them everything bagels on the nose.
It's kind of gross.
And when I'm doing it, I'm like, yeah, you have a little everything bagel right here.
I'm going to take out the little.
poppy seeds um sesame seeds ooh and i want to michael to make you a plain bagel okay plain and smooth
yeah kind of gross oh my gosh the way that like yeah men sometimes will walk around with like
they'll walk around with like they they smell they didn't brush their teeth and they're like
at least i didn't wash my face today for a way okay if you want to take that by all means
babe, that's all you.
Yeah, these asshole just walking
the earth just need to
take a step back and look
at their life and get their shit together. Yeah, re-evaluate
yourself. Yes. Looking at Chonies.
Mm-hmm. You got skin marks in there.
Yep. Maybe we
we strategize. Maybe we tackle life in a
different way. I don't know. That's just
my opinion. What do I know? Just just some
water. I'm just a stupid woman.
Just water.
Something.
Yeah, a washcloth.
Yeah, a washcloth. A luf.
Would you like, are you a lufa girl or you a washcloth girl?
I'm a hands girl.
Really?
I use gloves.
They're like luf, like the scrubbing ones.
Oh, for my face, I'm hands.
And then for my body, I have like the little silicone scrubber.
Oh.
Yes.
You can check it out on my Amazon.
Those like, I have wash gloves.
They're like literally like, and they're really exfoliating too.
I've used those my whole life.
They're so good.
And that brings us to today's most of.
I like I'm better than a lufa.
Do you have Amazon storefront?
No, I don't.
Maybe I should start.
Actually, just kidding.
Yeah, I'm going to snag those glows for your Amazon storefront.
I highly recommend that, honestly.
Better than a lufa.
The lufa's like, they fall apart.
They do.
In like a week.
They're so pointless.
Oh my God.
Have you ever seen a man's, like, lufa?
And it's like beat to shit.
Yeah.
The little pubs and disgusting bits and crusty stuck.
Oh my gosh.
One time my friend was dating this guy and sometimes we would go over to his house and I was just always there because they're like come with me.
I don't want to go with myself.
So I'm just like a business person on the trip.
Okay.
This is a business trip.
I'm just here for a good time, not a long time.
I'd go and I just remembered like whenever I would use the restroom at his house, that lufa was in the same place and was dry.
Oh, hey.
As hell.
Every time.
No matter how many times.
And one day I brought it up to her, I said, listen, you know, I love you.
that man doesn't wash himself
and I feel like it's important
you know that
and she was like what do you mean
I'm all I've seen that lufa has not moved
I've been here like four times
it hasn't moved bitch
it looks like the Sahara Desert
it's dry
red flag
it's like almost like you know
little kid shit like when they go through those phases
where they don't want to shower or something
so you tell them to go shower
get in the shower
and they just run the water
my brothers today
how are we all gay
we're all gay
for all of you
All of us.
The numbers are crazy on that.
I know.
Woo, hooo.
How lucky.
All named after her saints, right?
Patrick Peter Paul.
Same's going marching in.
We're all gay, but how am I the most glamorous?
And I had to comb their hair, brush your teeth, and I'm like, do you have, please come to my school today.
Please.
I made my other brother Peter get microblading.
I'm like, you're looking little bald right here, bro.
Look a little bald.
I have to have some friends.
And best.
In best.
Yes.
It's for the best.
Anyways, yeah.
That's just, you know.
you see something, you say something.
And that's what I did.
Okay. If you guys are listening right now and you know you have a crusty, dusty, whack-ass looking
a firm right now that doesn't take care of themselves or they know someone.
Yeah.
Please use your influence and encourage them.
Because we're trying, like, we can't do it alone.
I know.
I'm saying why am I the only one?
Help, help people get self-care.
Self-care is the best care.
Like you said self-awareness.
Self-awareness.
It's important.
Like help them be self-aware.
Help them.
Yes.
You know what's so funny when I,
lived with my boyfriend's,
my boyfriend and I lived together
in his parents' house for a little bit,
like during COVID and stuff.
And when his brother was living at the house,
when I first moved in,
I, like, moved, first of all,
boy bathroom.
Yuck.
Yuck.
My boyfriend, thankfully, is very clean,
but, like, up to boy bathroom.
Younger brother.
Yeah.
The way I would open a drawer.
I'd smell it now.
I'd open a drawer, bitch,
and there's like an empty soda can in there.
Oh.
Excuse me?
You're drinking.
soda in the bathroom, that's disgusting.
And so I, like, cleaned the whole thing when I moved in.
I was like, I simply can't do this.
Like, I can't live here if this is disgusting.
So I cleaned it all and organized everything.
And then I remember every time I would go in there, my skincare stuff was, like, depleted,
like severely depleted.
And I'd be like, I know my boyfriend doesn't use that.
What's going on?
Yeah, so then I was like, let's talk, babe.
And I was like, I think your brother's using my skincare.
And I love him to death.
He's the best.
But he was like, I don't know.
No, I don't think so.
I'm like, I'm telling you right now, unless you're using it, he's using it.
And he would go, he eventually admitted to me.
He would go in there, like Nordstrom bitch sample everything.
He's just like, oh, wow.
And I think that's great.
But at one point he said he was using my moisturizer as a lotion and I said,
if I find out you're putting that anywhere that it's not supposed to be and dipping
your finger back in there, I'm going to kill you.
I'm going to run this house to the ground, bitch.
I'm dead.
I was so like, um,
That's not where that goes.
You know, I love, I love when I have, this sounds all so wrong, when I have guys come over, when I have friends come over that are guys, you know, we're just like after an event.
Yeah.
And I just want to like take off my makeup.
I'm like, oh, you want to do skincare?
And it's so cool how even other makeup influencers or friends that come over, I'll be like, hey, you want to do your skincare?
They're like, oh, like, what do you use?
And I explain it.
And it's kind of crazy for people that are.
gay or that like already have a skincare regimen of like two steps or three steps are still
intrigued by how they can incorporate more because the gag is with skincare it's so
freaking intimidating to use because everything is colorless yeah you know like with foundation
you swatch it you see it yeah with concealer same thing I shadow lipstick but with skincare it's
like okay this goes on like why does it go on first yeah so it's really cool to see um but I think
it's cool how it is it's so cute I and now he has his own little skincare routine but I just
thought that was cue he was sampling.
If you want the facial.
Yeah, I was like, girl, you could have just ask?
Come up down the hallway, knock on the door.
If I find out you're using that waste dress or anywhere else, I'm going to kill you, though.
So it was actually really sweet.
I love that.
I was like, someone is dipping in.
Come on, Influencer.
Okay.
Okay, let's go into this next video.
Okay, so this is a dermatologist reacting to a young guy's skincare routine.
So he cleanses.
uses a hydrating serum, vitamin C, and moisturizer.
The dermatologist only know is he's missing sunscreen.
And obviously, men in the comments were being a big hater.
But I actually recommend, like, I never used to wear sunscreen, like, a skincare sunscreen or whatever.
I never used to use those.
I used to just use, like, regular sunscreen.
But since I incorporated, I can't not use it now.
Even when the sun's not out, bitch, you still should put it on.
Yes, yes.
And on your neck and on your hands.
And I tell people that all the time.
It's crazy.
I had a math teacher in school, and it's the first time I ever heard the word melanoma.
Skin cancer.
Yeah.
And he had it on his nose.
It became a tiny dot, and they had to take, it looks like a little baby, like, ice cream scooper.
Yeah.
And really excaviated out of his face.
Oh, my gosh.
Crazy.
I think towards the end of the year, he goes, guys, I have it again.
And so he had to leave school and go.
in and scrape it out again.
And I think if men
fucking knew
that if you're not taking care of the
largest organ in your body
like on the daily and protecting
it from the sun, it can be
terminal in terms of like
cancer and
you know, fucking with your melanin.
Yeah, literally. I think that's like
that's such tea too because
that's why I say like you think you're strong
enough to fight the sun.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Like the rays from the sun, bitch.
Like, I, I don't know.
I'm not that confident in my own abilities to fight.
Yeah, and it's something that you can't really see or, like, feel too.
Yeah.
Until it's, like, so far progressed.
Yeah.
And it's so, like, it's crazy how quickly it can happen or it can happen over the course of, like, 20, 30 years.
Yeah.
And it can spread, you know, if you don't get it soon enough.
I know.
I'm such a big, like, you need.
sunscreen like whenever it's on outside everyone needs to put on sunscreen you know what you need to get um I just got I haven't used it yet but it's a mirror that has like a UV sensor on it so when you put on sunscreen it shows um it's it's a black and white camera so it shows you in the mirror once you put a sunscreen on it turns black because it shows like the the UV sensor um on that so eventually when you put it all over your face you can see your entire face like covered covered covered
Oh my god. It's really, really cool. I'll send you a video. Oh, yeah, please do. And it's just so you know you're getting everywhere. Yeah. Yeah. Just so you know where you're seeing spots. There was a huge commercial on it too. And you can even test the strength of your type of sunscreen that you're using. Yeah. Yeah. It's kind of like a cool little compact mirror with a little camera and it's selfie. So you can just see. Like how strong how well it does. Oh shit. I love that. Yeah. Look at you teaching me. And that can all.
also be found in our Amazon.
Yes.
And that can be in my Amazon's
drive at it's better quality.
Exactly.
Okay, the comments on this video were obviously
very not good.
So this first one says,
doesn't sunscreen lower testosterone?
No, your comment did, though.
The fuck?
It's not a real question.
Yeah.
Do you know the more girth around
your midsection as a man,
triggers more estrogen
that's why I think I'm so fish
That's what I'm so fishy
Because I have a fat gut
No but it's true
Youth fam
That's why he looks so young
That's why the skin is popping
It's so funny because
No but when I do work out
I'm like why is my facial hair growing back so much faster
Teague is like pumping
pumping tea
To testosterone
But yeah probably
your gut that's giving you all that womanly goodness.
That's what I'm saying.
No, sunscreen doesn't lower your testosterone
and you fucking Neanderthal.
No, just your fat gut.
Okay, next comment
says, that's cool, but I can wash my face
with the same bar of soap I use in the shower
and get the same results.
That hurt to read, honestly.
So the same bar of soap you put in between your taint
and your armpit.
That you graze on that gooch.
You want that on your face?
Yeah.
The way that bars of soap also hold germs.
Yeah.
Girl.
They don't know that.
They probably don't believe in germs either.
They are the germ.
Yeah, it takes one to no one, huh?
The way I, yeah, you could for sure, I mean, you could for sure use the same bar of soap on your face.
That's not going to guarantee the same results.
Not in my house.
I don't need to be an esthetician to tell you that that's gross.
That's disgusting.
Don't do that.
Don't do that.
Yeah.
Yeah, not me.
Also love yourself, get a body wash.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, and a face wash.
And a face wash.
Separate.
Separate.
Yeah.
Two separate things.
I'll help you guys out.
I'll help you guys out.
Okay.
Oh my God, that reminds me, actually.
One time I went away with my boyfriend.
I forget where we were.
But he was like, I forgot lotion, which I hate because I hate being dry and cracked.
It's like body lotion.
I forgot lotion.
The worst thing in the world.
I was like, I need to go to the store and buy lotion.
But I had already showered.
So I was like.
Damn. So I literally just got dressed and I was like, I'm going to go to the store and just buy some and I'll put it on.
And my boyfriend showered after me. And he was like, oh, he goes, didn't she say you had to buy lotion? And I go, yeah, he goes, you don't need to buy lotion. There's lotion in there. And I was like, no, there's not. And he was like, no, there is. I literally just used it when I got out. And I go, girl, what are you using? He was using my moisturizer as lotion, bitch. It's like this tiny little pot. It's expensive.
He's just scooping it out and he's going all over his body.
I was like, girl, I love you.
There's a difference.
There's a huge difference.
And you owe me another jar bitch.
I better see you in Sephora.
I swear to God.
Here he is.
So that's okay.
That's cute and silly.
I would much rather you do that than be like,
I could just use my dial soap and wipe my face with it.
Literally.
Okay.
This last comment on here says,
that's gay just grow a beard
I can do both
okay say it honestly
I can very easily grow a beard
if you guys haven't seen me with a beard
you can Google
you can Google Patrick's Star beard
Are you still super fish or what
I think I'm pretty masked
Yeah
Yeah
Just grow a beard
Okay
Yeah
You can also still get acne underneath a beard.
Foliculacelitis, bitch.
Or like razor bumps too.
Uh-huh.
Ingrown.
Mm-hmm.
That can lead to acne.
You know, when I used to get facials, my facials would tell me I had five hairs in one follicle.
Yeah, grow a beard.
You'll have a cyst, bitch.
Yeah.
It's guaranteed.
Yeah.
Guaranteed.
And the hairs can grow sideways.
Oh my God.
So you would have to fish it with tweezers or...
And that's like an ingrown?
Yeah, it's an ingrown hair.
Yeah.
Disgusting.
I never knew that.
Yeah.
And that's why I sit in front of all these lights.
Because I look like a man at 5 o'clock.
It's not cute.
A beard too, like, it's like grounds like...
I also think too.
Everyone's skin is so different.
Oh my gosh.
I was going to say...
No, please do you?
Do you know the app, the face app?
The one that we swap?
No.
Is it the AI generator one?
No, no, no.
I'm going to show you.
Next time you roast the bitch.
Oh, yes.
Screenshot them.
Okay.
Face app them hose and take off their beard.
And their hair.
Or, or add hair.
Or add hair.
You can add hair.
I'm going to show you right after.
Oh, please too.
Yeah, this is what you would look like if you were a good fucking person.
And since you're not, this is what you look like.
God punished you.
And that's on you.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
This was your potential.
And today's sponsor is based act.
Like, take it up with him.
Yes.
Like, you're fighting your own genetics.
That's a personal battle.
Yeah.
Just give visuals.
Yeah.
I think,
period.
I think, too, I've had, like, I've had some dudes comment on, like, they say, like,
the most terrible things.
And then they have really, really awful skin.
And sometimes I'm like, you're lucky I don't make skin jokes a lot.
I don't make them a lot purely because other people may be impacted by them.
And the rest of your body does it for you.
Yeah.
There's lots of more that we can make fun of.
But sometimes I'm like, you have no room to talk.
No room to talk.
And it's not even your skin type.
It's literally like because you don't take care of yourself.
It's very obvious.
You know you can tell.
Yeah.
You can literally tell when someone.
You could smell it off the screen.
Yeah.
And then sometimes on the flip side of that, I'll get tagged in videos of women who have like very severe skin conditions.
So they like wear like.
wear a lot of makeup or they show their like skincare routine while they're going through their
their phases where their skin may flare up at certain times.
The way that some men are so god awful towards them and they're just being vulnerable and
being like, hey, I'm still beautiful regardless of my skin type.
And I'm like, and then you get mad when I tell you that you have plaque on your teeth at 27 years old,
bitch.
Come on.
You know what I mean?
Clean the house before you invite people over is what I always say.
Literally.
You can always tell us.
Someone by, I think in person, by their kitchen, their bathroom.
All the time.
I think that's a minority thing.
Is it?
Bathroom, bitch.
Is it a Filipino thing?
I think it is.
I think it's an islander thing.
Yeah, Islander D.S.
Yeah.
I literally, I look at bathrooms all the time.
I look at baseball.
Bitch.
Yep.
And around, like, when you look at a toilet, the back part.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Grom my mom tell me that.
Yeah, scrubbing everything.
Mm-hmm.
The way I clean is how other people should clean.
is what I always think.
As a Virgo, I'm always right.
I'm on Scorpio.
Fuck them.
I love Scorpio.
I get along with Scorpio so well.
Yeah.
Yes.
I, oh my gosh, that's so funny.
You say that I judge them
where their kitchen and their bathrooms,
same.
They're floors, yeah.
Well, especially if I go over,
like when I was in my prime hoe phase in college,
when I would go to their house,
if I went to their bathroom and I was...
The dick's not going to be good.
No.
Never, ever, ever, ever, ever worth it.
No, ma'am.
No, ma'am.
Or do they even have a...
a bed frame.
Yeah, that too.
Tell me you had someone
with no bed frame.
I didn't actually.
Really?
A box spring does not count,
bitch.
A box spring does not...
You know what?
I plead the fifth then
if that's the case.
You know what's funny?
One time, I told the story
on my podcast with my sister.
One time I went over to this dude's house
but I was with another girl
who wanted to hook up with his friend
so it was business trip, right?
I didn't like this guy.
But he was like, we could watch a movie.
We could watch a movie.
This is before Netflix and Chill was like a thing.
It was before the memes and the jokes.
So he's like, we could definitely watch a movie.
It would be fun.
There's going to be four of us.
I'm like, cool, word sounds good.
So we go, tell me about this bitch
didn't even have a TV.
Girl.
The fuck are we going to watch on your Android?
I literally go, you don't even have a TV.
It looked like he got robbed.
And he goes, oh, well, I mean, if you really want to watch a movie,
you're the one who's set.
But where?
On his computer?
Yeah, on his computer, but he had those, you know the MacBooks.
On his Macintosh?
You know the MacBooks?
that are like the little minis.
Stop.
He set that up.
He goes, oh.
Do you have a Netflix thing?
I go, girl.
Talk to me crazy.
You're talking to me crazy, bitch.
The way I told my friend,
we went to the bathroom,
and I said, wrap it up.
Get what you need to get and let's go.
Because I can't do this.
I'm so sorry.
I can't do this.
Four of you watching the little portable DVD player.
Like a true iPad kid.
Oh, my gosh.
The four of us gathered around.
It was smaller than an iPad.
Those little mini.
MacBooks are small as hell, bitch.
And that's when Netflix was on the vending machines back then.
When they were sending DVDs to your house, bitch.
I'm dead.
The Red Box era.
Yes.
Yes.
I was so like.
Yeah, we got to go.
And then they wonder why I have a grudge against all of them.
Oh.
Now you.
Now.
My true villain origin was literally that.
Okay.
So we're at the end of our episode and I've had so much fun with you.
Thank you.
But what?
do you want people to know when it comes to just beauty in general, whether it's skincare, makeup,
what is it, what is something that you really want them to take away when they, like,
when they watch your content especially?
Like, champion who you want to be.
And I think for anyone listening when it comes to beauty, the hard part is not being who you
want to be.
Yeah.
The hard part is staying who you want to be.
Because a lot of people on social media, comments and all these assholes that we just
talked about, even friends that have.
you know, um, success or that they're on the grind as you.
Sometimes opinions can derail us from who we want to keep, keep our identity too.
Yeah.
So, but I think when, when you're watching me transform makeup or do makeovers and others or do
facials, like, yeah.
Just know that I'm doing it because I want to do it, not because it's a trend,
not because I have to post it to a sound or a hashtag.
Period.
But just like, do whatever the fuck you.
you want to do.
Period.
