TikTok stars Gianna Joyce and Preslee Faith are known for sharing their glam tips with their millions of followers on social media, but before they were experts, the two admittedly experienced some beauty blunders.
“I once tried to dye my hair brunette and it turned orange,” Joyce told ET at the Glowhouse launch event, designed to bridge creators with fans, and skincare, in partnership with medicube in Beverly Hills, California on April 12.
“I also struggled with hormonal acne, and it really affected my confidence, especially since I’m on camera so much,” she continued.
As for Faith? “I used to have very textured skin, and it was one of my biggest insecurities. … I’ve also used the wrong product before, which made my makeup peel, and it was the worst pain ever.”
To combat any issues now, the pair relies on tried-and-true staples that work best for them — and Kylie Jenner.
“I cleanse, tone, and apply the medicube PDRN Pink Peptide Serum … I also drink more water and remember that real skin isn’t perfect and that’s OK,” Joyce shared.
“I love the medicube Age-R Booster Pro and the PDRN Pink Collagen Jelly Gel Mask. I’ve also focused on becoming comfortable with my skin, and myself as a whole,” Faith added.
If they are feeling experimental, the social media stars look to their favorite It-girls to see the trends they’re trying out.
“I love Hailey Bieber’s glowy, minimalist glam, Zendaya’s versatility, and Rihanna because it’s Rihanna and she’s an icon,” Joyce said.
“Sabrina Carpenter and Alix Earle are huge inspirations for me right now. Their makeup always looks soft and fresh, but with a little edge,” Faith spilled.
And after a day of beauty, the content creators make sure to prioritize their nighttime routines too.
“The medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Overnight Wrapping Mask has made such a difference in keeping my skin clear and smooth as I sleep. … I also use a silk pillowcase and wear a silk scrunchie to keep my hair protected,” Joyce explained.
Faith’s must-haves: “I shower, wash my face, put on my skincare products and my bonnet, and fall right asleep.”
