Kat Graham's Natural Hair Beauty Routine | Beauty Secrets | Vogue

[Music] hey guys it is me kat graham i am so excited that you guys are going to be with me on this never before journey i'm going to bring you guys into how i actually do my hair my makeup and skin routine i'm biracial so my mom couldn't really do my hair she just dropped me off at the hair salon and i've been doing getting my hair done by professionals almost every single week since i was like nine years old because my mom just couldn't do it so i've learned a lot being on quarantine i haven't had a team of hair stylists that are trained and can deal with everything so when i first wake up the first thing i want to do is my eyebrows i use anastasia's a lot i'll shape them with the with the gel that she has i've been sweating a lot working out in the water so i've been using l'oreal's unbelievable so it stays on for two days i don't know why but even when i take off my makeup at night i wake up and i still find more so i've been i love these they're they're little you can get them at like walgreens or whatever um they're makeup removing wipes aveeno my skin loves it you see see there's no dirt i don't understand it i'm spritzing my um dior i like oil to milk cleanser on my makeup removing pad so this is my favorite serum capture youth you can see it it's a glow booster i've been really just like applying it to my face that's really my routine and then what i do is i just like chill and then i get into my hair so i'm gonna take out my my four braids i've been very careful to not use heat on my hair just i really wanted it to grow when i first started quarantine i think my hair was maybe to here and now it's to here which is nice but you know this is not ever something that i would have to do i would keep my hair in cornrows and just you know throw on a wig because most of the jobs that i had done as an actress you know they wanted a certain kind of of look four months now and i haven't straightened my hair so you can see it's really healthy it's been really therapeutic for me to just wear my hair really really big so let's get it big can you hear me so much fun i mean an afro pick i never thought i would even own one the african afro texture is not something that hollywood has ever necessarily embraced so i hope that i one day can play a character that i actually look like my hair stylist rachel lee who's amazing who was actually the first person to really put me on this journey of using my own hair i just love just having a fro i don't know quarantine has completely changed me um i don't know that i would even have shown this to you guys before i can do so much with it i don't really i don't straighten it but what i've been loving to do is condition my hair and keep it conditioned so these are my favorite oils um manuka oil you can just get this at like the beauty salon argan oil stimulates hair growth black rice oil is the bomb and now for my favorite concoction that i made myself mustard seed oil and jamaican black castor oil extra dark you only need a little bit over maybe spots that have given you a bit of trouble or are stubborn in terms of growth or whatever but i do love my pro and i'll show you guys what i'm doing to condition it so there's really two products that i have been living by this is like my fifth one of this but originally this was a gift right before quarantine i had a week of press to do we didn't know what was happening it was just flights were getting cancelled um borders were getting closed and why am i crying over conditioner this is so stupid um but rachel gave me this and she said i want you to start to use this on your hair and i was like fine you know i get a bunch of products all the time [Music] and i it was almost like she knew i was going to be on my own and i've never had to be on my own with my hair so anyways i really love this product because this was the product that helped me figure out that my hair will work with me if i don't give up on it so sorry guys [Music] so i love it it's super simple it's like 7.99 you can see literally i take a whole scoop i love this stuff this is i just put it all over my hair and my hair just loves it so much and it seems like a lot watch how quickly my hair drinks it up so for vampire diaries i've worn um a lace front for many years so the glue and the wig clips and the pulling and the braids were hard on my hair i think for like the all eyes on me movie i had done a perm because i had a pixie cut but then after that i said i'm so done i just want to have a master bro so if you see what it's kind of done to my hair is the curls are much more defined and my hair just like really really loves it so another product that i love ryogio it's amazing black owned and you can see this basically my curls will do whatever i want them to do this is like me loosely holding on to my hair and it's just completely clean and then when i take it out at the end of the day it's just like so you know soft so let's get into some makeup i like makeup to last this is what i've been wearing it's super super light but you can um change how heavy you want it i've been using this um dior skin correct for this area here and then i've gotta love and have my riri my fenty beauty so my color is actually caramel see it's proof oh my god i've never done a video like this before and i just take it around my chin take it also to my forehead and now we're gonna do a little skin correct and you know one thing that people just don't talk about is you know we are women we have hormones and our skin changes and sometimes we have dark spots and light spots and it just changes and then before i totally blend i'm going to do my infallible and what i love about this is because it is so light and it does stay on that i am able to use it quite sparingly i really don't get why my mom did not let me play with makeup when i was younger and so what um i did was i had to hire people when i first started to get publicity but the only people i knew professionally that i trusted with my makeup were drag queens because before vampire diaries i was releasing music and the only people that would let me in um to perform were drag queens and you know gay clubs in west hollywood so i learned how to contour um from suton aka raja who is an iconic performer in the drag scene and then throughout doing more and more fashion i stopped wearing as much makeup so you'll notice if you even do like a timeline of my makeup over the years um it's gotten a lot lighter um so you can see it's pretty but i need a bit of blush i really don't want to lose my freckles this is benetint by benefit and you can see they're starting to come through so if you look closely you will see my freckles starting to come back you can see a bit of them there if i need something that is um more closer to my color i use the true match from l'oreal and that kind of really helps define it one thing that i really i really love doing is my mascara to the point where even when i'm on set i ask if i can do it myself because i love doing it so much telescopic mascara it looks like this i'm obsessed with a little bit of highlight here and i love um guerlain's terracotta it's a bronze and you can just do bam i've had this forever i have it in like three colors this is just lotion lumi i wear very minimalistic eye makeup these days this is my dior palette it's backstage it's it's warm neutrals it's all my colors it's my favorite favorite favorite favorite palette i use it every day i'm just using the dark brown um right here and a thin brush and i just create a bit of a contour and then i use the um it's like a terracotta you can use whatever lip gloss you want super easy i mean all my black girls already know about this but this is cream of nature olive oil perfect edges this one is my favorite just do a little here and get your baby hairs right one thing about me while i do my baby hairs is that i am obsessed with um amber the smell and this um is my official smell it's serge lutong santel maggie i can't pronounce these things and that's how you know it's good hopefully you guys have enjoyed my self-care routine and have learned a little bit more about my journey i love you guys good luck you
