- Hey everyone it's your girl Jenn

and here I am in the beautiful lovely Phuket.

I am here through through Evolve.

And I had a couple of extra hours to get ready

so I brought the camera down

and filmed a Get Ready With Me.

I'm gonna show you how I did this really fresh

glowy natural look that is perfect for humid weather.

I know it is winter in most places,

but in case you are traveling

or you live in South East Asia

or any environment where it's hot and humid

I thought that this look would be perfect

and without further ado let's get started.

Hello everybody here is my bare face.

Since it is quite sunny out here

I'm gonna start with sunscreen first.

This is by Murad, it is their Anti-Aging Moisturizer.

It's got SPF 30.

And normally this is Ben's sunscreen,

but we thought we would consolidate, just bring one.

No need to bring so many sunscreens.

I can't forget my neck, I always forget my neck.

Alright so now that the sunscreen is on

I'm gonna move on to foundation.

I'm using this one by Nars

and I've been seeing this all over YouTube.

Everyone is raving about it, including myself.

This has been incredible.

I put maybe like a pump or two on the back of my hand

and I'm just going to dot it.

I've been using this foundation all week

and it's been great because it is high coverage

but it doesn't cake up.

This foundation blends so well.

I'm in the color Punjab and it is a great color match,

but we've been doing so many different types

of activities here all day

and this foundation hasn't been an issue at all.

Okay so that looks blended to perfection.

I'm just gonna skip concealer

because I feel like the foundation's

doing a pretty great job already.

Also whenever I'm traveling to like a humid country

or climate I just want to reduce the amount of product

I put on my face because whenever I do like a full beat

in humidity it just doesn't translate very well for me

so I'm just gonna move straight into powder.

This is my favorite one from Laura Mercier.

I have a cute travel sized one, it is adorable.

So a few of you guys noticed

that I am no longer Close Encounters

on my YouTube channel anymore.

It just says Jenn Im now.

I just thought it was time for a change.

I changed it last week and I just thought

it would be smart for me to just streamline everything

because whenever you guys come up to me

like 99% of you guys says I'm Jenn Im

as opposed to Close Encounters.

I feel like only the OG subscribers

call me Close Encounters anymore

and I feel like if you're OG

then you would understand why I changed it.

Like also with the amount of saturation in the space

I just wanted to make my channel

as easy to find as possible

and since the rest of my social media accounts,

they're all I'm Jenn Im, I thought thatA

it would just make sense to call my channel Jenn Im,

but luckily my URL is still Close Encounters

so that will always be a part of me.

So now I'm gonna use this mattifying powder by Catrice

and this is kind of like a insurance for me

because I know I'm gonna get oily

so I'm just gonna hit this on my key zone

which is where I get the oiliest.

And I've already tested this for flash photography.

It has no flash back, thank god.

So now let's move on to the brows.

I'm using Benefit's Goof Proof Brow Pencil.

And I'm just gonna start drawing in my brows.

Since it's the new year it is the time

for new year's resolutions and I am no exception.

If you know me I am such a freak

for self improvement and self growth

and so for my goals for 2018

I would say I just want to focus

on improving my mental health.

So I want to continue working out

maybe three to four times a week.

I want to continue going to therapy.

I want to meditate at least four times a week.

Before I was really gung ho

about meditating every single day

but then I started to notice

if I was struggling to find time to meditate

I would kind of stress myself out

which kind of defeats the purpose.

So I'm gonna have, I'm just gonna try

and meditate as often as I can.

Maybe a goal would be four times a week,

but if I miss a day I'm not gonna

you know beat myself over it

because it is not supposed to make you feel that way.

I also want to try my best to eat as healthy as I can.

So I'm trying, or I'm gonna try my best

to have more of a plant based diet,

but I'm never going to fully announce it

because I think it's gonna be like a slow transition.

I'm gonna start cutting out red meat

and then eventually white meat and then all meat.

Just know that I will be trying my best.

Luckily in Thailand it's been quite easy

to eat plant based meals here,

or at least with no meat

because the way they cook their food is so incredible.

The spices and the way they saute their veggies.

It just really makes you forget meat

and also a lot of the girls here are vegetarians

so it's quite inspiring.

So I'm gonna try and take the habits that I'm getting here

from food and bring that back to LA.

So the brows are done and I'm gonna move

straight into the eyes.

I'm using Colourpop's Birthday Girl

and this is like an ultra shimmery champagne shade

and I'm gonna just pop that all over my lids.

I love the way this looks on the eyes

because it kind of makes your eyes

look a little wet if you know what I mean?

I think that really works with this weather.

Oh yeah.

I wish you guys could just see how glittery this is.

And of course if you've never used Colourpop eyeshadow

I highly recommend you use your finger

because you just get the most color payoff that way.

For the blending shade I'm gonna go in

with this eyeshadow palette by Too Faced.

I'm gonna use Fur Baby

which is just like your standard brown

and I'm gonna use that for the outer corners of my eye.

For my channel goals I want to try and figure out a way

to just kind of amp up my page.

I want to make more fun content

like my party for one look book.

If you guys haven't seen that video

please go check it out.

I'll put it in the cards.

Me and the LR creative team worked so hard on it

and I feel like fashion videos

just don't do as well as they used to

or maybe there needs to be like a new

like format for them because I feel like with YouTube

it's a little scary to try out new stuff

because if it's too different

people don't like it,

but if it's not different enough

than you don't feel excited about that if that makes sense.

But I don't know, I'm gonna try and continue

to figure out how to make fashion videos

more interesting and more clickable.

But yeah I would love to know what kind of videos

you would like to see.

If you guys can be as specific as possible

that would be amazing.

Do you guys want to see more beauty videos,

do you want to see more vlogs?

Yeah just let me know in the comments down below.

Now I'm gonna use I Rough You as my inner corner

and brow bowl highlight.

So now that the eyes are done

I'm just gonna give my lashes

a little squeeze with my lash curler.

And then I'll be ready to be primed

by the lovely Lancome Cils Booster.

I am so loyal to this guy.

I'm kind of running really low.

I'm gonna have to make Sephora order soon.

I packed so many false lashes on this trip

but I haven't worn them at all

because I just haven't been in the mood really.

I feel like because it's so hot

I just don't want anything else on my face

that is extra so I've just been working

with my natural lashes and they're fine.

So while I wait for my lashes to dry

I'm gonna go in with this blush by Nars.

It is called Intensely and it looks intimidating

in the package but I swear when it's on

I think it looks quite natural.

I feel like orange really compliments my skin tone

and I feel like it's gonna really work

with this look that we've got here.

So I just applied this blush onto the apples of my cheeks

and I feel like it gives like a really soft

innocent flush of color.

You can skip highlighter, but I am definitely not.

I'm using this Tarte Pro Glow palette.

I'm gonna go in with strobe

and I'm going to dust this onto the tops of my cheeks

and then my nose and then of course the cupid's bow.

And as the day goes on this is just gonna look dewier

and dewier and it's gonna look very fresh faced.

So the lashes are dry so I'm gonna go in

with this mascara by Lancome.

This is their Definicils.

A lot of you guys are asking about

how the wedding planning is going

and girls it is going, it is fun,

but it's also very stressful as well.

I think after our wedding I'll do

kind of like a video on where we got everything

so it can give you guys a good reference point

on where to get started.

We already got the venue of course.

We got the cake, the flowers, the videographer,

the photographer, the linens, the tables.

And yeah it's been a lot.

I feel like wedding planning is all about

tiny little decisions.

It's kind of like when you go to the optometrist

and they have that machine

and they go A or B, B or C

and they all kind of look similar

but you know you have to make the correct decision.

So it's kind of like that.

And as for my wedding dress

I'm getting it custom designed by Mika.

We had a meeting earlier in December

and that was just kind of like, you know,

a get to know you meeting.

I showed him my Pinterest board

and so we're gonna collaborate together

and create the perfect wedding dress.

I am so excited for that.

We're gonna meet again after I come back from Thailand

and so then he'll have some sketches.

And obviously I will be showing you guys the whole process.

I think I'm gonna do like a wedding series

of how we created our dress.

So stay tuned for that.

So I'm gonna finish off the look with a lip.

I'm using this one by Hourglass, it is called Leader.

And it's just like a really fun vibrant magenta shade.

I'm obsessed with this color.

I love the way it looks with a minimal eye.

So now we're gonna seal--
