Now, today, for my "Vanderpump Rules" fans, I got a good one for you. And I know you guys are going to like this one. Trust me, because I am dying. OK? Today, I have Raquel Leviss joining me. She's about to show me her nighttime beauty routine. Are you guys ready? Hi, How are you? I'm so excited to have you here.
RAQUEL LEVISS: Hi. I'm good. I'm excited to be here.
NURYS CASTILLO: And so how are you doing during quarantine? And how are you and James doing during this time? He must be driving you crazy.
RAQUEL LEVISS: Yeah, I'm going a little bit crazy. I'm actually visiting my friend in northern California right now. I miss home. I got a little homesick last night, going from, like, spending 24 hours with James every single day of the week to nothing. It's just like, well, yeah.
NURYS CASTILLO: Yeah. I'm excited because you're going to talk about these beauty products for your nighttime routine. And I haven't tried any, and I'm going to try them with you today.
RAQUEL LEVISS: The first one, I'm super excited about it, because I'm obsessed with Kelley Baker brows. I've always loved watching her brow tutorials on Instagram. And she has this Peptide Brow and Lash Serum.
NURYS CASTILLO: Ooh, this is cool.
RAQUEL LEVISS: The reason why I love it so much, especially during quarantine, is because it really boosts your lashes to grow long and strong. And you can use it on your eyebrows, too. There's a little applicator--
NURYS CASTILLO: Yeah--
RAQUEL LEVISS: --like this.
NURYS CASTILLO: --so I'm going to put it. Like, just put it on?
RAQUEL LEVISS: Mm-hm, just like that. I love to use it before bed. And it's a perfect time to keep your eyebrows growing and healthy, especially if you've over-tweezed them, or if you want to create like a fuller brow.
NURYS CASTILLO: I've been looking at my eyebrows, like, daily now, because they look crazy. There's no growth here. I don't know what's going on. So I am so excited to continue to try this.
RAQUEL LEVISS: I like to apply right on the lash line. You want to go right between where your lashes meet that lid.
NURYS CASTILLO: Guys, just be careful to not stick it in your eyes.
RAQUEL LEVISS: Right. You don't want it to go in your eyes.
NURYS CASTILLO: This is so easy and super quick for a night's routine.
RAQUEL LEVISS: My favorite body lotion is the Hempz Pure Herbal Extracts. It's so good. It smells super light and fresh. So you just pump it into your hand.
NURYS CASTILLO: I've got some here.
RAQUEL LEVISS: Yeah, and then just apply it.
NURYS CASTILLO: When I first got it, I was like, I don't know if I'm going to like this. But the minute I saw the outside, this is definitely something for the nighttime.
RAQUEL LEVISS: You can layer it on thick if you want. If you have really dry skin, layer it on, sleep in it. And when you wake up, your skin is going to be feeling so nice and moisturized.
OK, so my last favorite for my bedtime routine is this Image skincare Sheer Pink Lip Enhancement Complex. And the first time I ever tried this was when I got my lips done. My doctor put this on my lips, and I'm, oh, this feels so good. It smells delicious. And ever since then, I haven't been able to use Chapstick or anything. This is, like, the total hydration, especially for a super dry lips.
NURYS CASTILLO: I want to eat it, because it smells so good. I think this is great for summer and winter, right? So I'm excited for the reunion. I know that's coming up. So that should be some fun, right?
RAQUEL LEVISS: Oh, man, yeah. The reunion is always fun-- this one, especially fun. The commute to filming the reunion was from my bedroom to the living room. So that was really nice.
NURYS CASTILLO: So at the end of the episode, we always like to do the ultimate must-have. So which one do you think people have to have, if they can't get all three?
RAQUEL LEVISS: I would say the ultimate must-have is the Kelley Baker Brow Peptide Serum. You can use it on your lashes and your brows. It's perfect for nighttime, especially during quarantine. It's the perfect time to keep your brows growing healthy.
NURYS CASTILLO: I agree. I'm actually going to go and say that my ultimate must-have is this, as well, even though I haven't tried it. But I think, for quarantine purposes, I think this will be great. Raquel, thank you so much for being here today and showing me your nighttime quarantine products. I'm going to definitely be using these. But let everybody know where they can find you and see you.
RAQUEL LEVISS: You can find me @RAQUELLEVISS on Instagram.
NURYS CASTILLO: Thank you so much. This was so much fun, and hopefully, we'll get to see each other next month. I'm going to go to SUR, one of these--
RAQUEL LEVISS: Yeah.
NURYS CASTILLO: --days.
