My First TikTok Post: Facing the Camera and Sharing My Skincare Routine

Starting something new can be terrifying, but it can also be exhilarating. This was exactly how I felt when I decided to post my first TikTok video this morning. It wasn’t just any video—it was one where I showed my face, talked directly to the camera, and shared something personal: my AM skincare routine. Let me tell you, talking in front of a camera for the first time is no joke. There’s something about the lens staring back at you that makes you hyper-aware of everything—your voice, your expressions, your words. But I pushed through the nerves because I wanted to share something that I’m passionate about: skincare. In the video, I walked viewers through my morning routine step by step. I started with my cleanser, then moved on to my toner, serum, moisturizer, and, of course, sunscreen. Explaining each product and why I use it felt natural because these are steps I’ve followed for years. Sharing this routine felt like letting people into a part of my life that’s both personal and important to me.
