In the video, Gigi says, "I feel like I'm either wearing nothing like this or full glamour." I prefer no makeup or full beat." For Gigi, beauty is something she became obsessed with as a child, watching her mother prepare herself. She remembers "the smell of Chanel perfume. It was always so seductive. I always said, 'I want to get ready! I want to be beautiful and smell cute! I always wanted to be beautiful and smell cute.

After removing her mask, Gigi applies Fresh Lotus Anti-Aging Night Moisturizer (opens in new tab)." I love this," she comments. The advice she gives her younger self is perfectly in line with what viewers expect from the outspoken star: Gigi says, "If it were me, I'd tell myself to admit to wearing makeup. In high school, when asked if she wore makeup, Gigi denied it." Admitting it is very intense. I wear more makeup, I'm more proud of myself. There is no shame in wearing makeup."

Gigi says she doesn't need makeup to feel her most gorgeous self. She says, "I feel most beautiful when I'm most comfortable, day in and day out."
