Shadowing Practice: My Summer Favorites - Learn English Speaking with Video

Hi guys!

It's summer time and if you guys are looking for a new way to refresh yourself whether it's through your body, mind, or soul, or space,

watch this video and I'm going to show you my favorite things that I'm loving right now.

So let's start off with my favorite beauty products.

Alright, so I'm gonna show you guys my favorite skincare products that I've been loving, I'm dying over.

The first one I want to show you is Kremmer Lab.

It's an interesting cleanser because unlike most cleansers that are either foamy or creamy or sometimes even soapy, this one has a bubbly texture.

A few pumps is all you need.

The bubbles, they help bring the dirt up into your face and you can just wash it right off.

And you see how it starts bubbling up?

It's going to feel so smooth and so clean without over drying it out.

So after cleansing my face, the next product that I've been just dying over and I'm using every other night is the Kremmer Laugh Perfecting Hydrating Mask.

So I'm going to show you what it looks like.

So you're gonna pull it out like so.

And this is essentially what the mask looks like.

Treat yourself to a nice mask every once in a while.

You guys deserve it.

Now if you're not much of a face mask person, but you're more into de -puffing your eyes, this is the eye mask that I swear by.

It's called Skin Ice Lens.

And they say that this will de -puff your eyes within 10 minutes.

I've tried it, but I mean it's pretty accurate.

And their forehead mask I think is very interesting because I've never seen anything like this.

So you have one for either wrinkles or for under the eyes or you can use them for both.

So this is what the under eye mask looks like.

- Thank you.

So leaving this on for about 10 -15 minutes and you'll notice right away that your eyes

will look more de -puffed and more awake.

Alright, so besides skincare, let's move on to makeup.

What I really want to talk about this summer is how important skin primer is.

I think skin primer is an essential beauty product to have during the summertime

because it's a great way to mattify your face, control the oil, and also your makeup will last longer, especially during very, very humid nights.

I know this sounds a little biased because it's from my own brand, but I believe in it so much, that's why I recommend it.

The Smoothing Face Primer.

Just a few squirts.

It's all you need.

And when you apply makeup over it, it's going to feel smoother, it's going to last longer, and you'll notice right away that your face will look more matte.

And if you're not living in an area where there's a lot of sun or maybe you're trying to avoid it, but you love that sun -kissed look, then I recommend my Makeup Mood Enhancer.

This is Golden Candlelight.

And I'm just going to add this right on my cheekbones.

And you'll notice right away, the brightening effect.

And so now my skin has this really beautiful glowing effect, especially the cheekbones.

So if you're looking for a way to lift up the cheekbones, add a highlighting color right around this area.

And this will instantly lift up your cheeks.

If you're looking for that instant, bronzy, sun -kissed glow, then try either a bronzing body lotion or this one by St. Trapez called One Night Only.

So this is what it looks like.

and just apply this on your body.

Once you take a shower or you know taking a bath it washes right off.

It's really it's a really subtle difference But I think it's nice because sometimes like for me.

I don't really want to look tan.

I just want that sun -kissed glow

So this is a great way for me to get

that look without having to commit to a sunless tanner that's gonna last up to five days

So this is what it looks like this is with the instant body glow

and you want something that's going to last a little longer, then try a tinted self -tanning lotion or mousse.

Check out this one by L 'Oreal Paris.

So it has this moussey texture.

And you just evenly apply this all over your skin, on your body, and it's going to give you this really nice natural -looking bronze tan.

Alright, so let's talk about hair.

This is a really fun product that I think it's adorable and I've been loving.

It's Redken's Pillow Proof Blow Dry Spray.

So what you do is you spray it right on the roots.

You want to go in and get the product in there, brush everything out, and that's it.

Your hair is going to look more fresh and it's going to last longer.

It's not going to smell or have that greasy texture.

So the last beauty product that I want to show you guys is honestly I like to save the best for last.

And the reason why is because it's really sentimental to me.

This is the Kiehl's Original Musque.

The cool thing about it is that it's unisex.

So a guy and a girl can wear it.

We share this and I think it's interesting because when he wears it, it smells a little different than when I wear it.

And so I think this musk, what it does is that it enhances your pheromones.

For me, it smells earthy and for Dom, it smells really masculine and woody.

Here are some cute little accessories I wanted to share with you guys because they're so cute.

And I'm going to start using them, but I wanted to show them in the packaging before using them.

So these are by Bando.

And so these are their hair clips.

So you can just add this right in your hair.

And here are their twisty ties.

This one is honestly my favorite design.

I think it looks like a nice bracelet but it also works as a hair tie too.

Apparently they don't, they don't snag at your hair because they're made out of elastic bands.

And so they're very gentle to use on your hair.

So if you're looking for a way to play up your hair, check out Bandos, hair ties and hair clips.

They're super cute.

And speaking of wristbands or any just bands in general, I don't know if you guys have ever heard of Nike's Fuel Bend.

This is what it looks like.

What you do is you wear this on your wrist and it monitors every action you take.

If you're running, if you're jumping.

So it's really great for those who are looking for a more active lifestyle

and you want to catalog what you're doing and every movement that you're making.

When you're exercising or especially when you're doing yoga, I recommend finding a color that really speaks to you.

So what color speaks to you?

Are you guys more into blue? pink, purple, yellow?

Just let me know in the comment section below.

Speaking of nature and being earthy, I think, you know, being very conscious of the environment

and using recyclable or renewable items like canvas bags when you're doing shopping, they really do inspire me to be more eco -friendly and be more conscious of the environment.

And you can't get any more eco -friendly than using a glass bottle.

They will last much longer than a plastic bottle.

It's made to a Fibonacci spiral, so the design itself is very symbolic And so besides that, it comes with this beautiful cork sleeve.

100

And my favorite part about this bottle is, you can see at the end, it's really faint, but it's beautiful.

101

Honestly, out of everything, this is my favorite product that I really recommend.

102

If you're looking for a way to refresh everything around you, start with what you're drinking, what you're taking in your body.

103

And so find a glass bottle that really suits you.

104

And so this one is by Nature's Design.

105

I love it.

106

I recommend it.

107

It's something that is really special to me too.

108

I wanted to show you guys a few really cute speakers that I got for myself.

109

This is so freaking cute.

110

It's by Bando again.

111

This is their gem speaker.

112

I feel like, I don't know, I feel like a character from My Little Pony or like Sailor Moon or something.

113

It's adorable.

114

And speaking of fabulous speakers, I think this one is just as fabulous.

115

So when I'm in the studio and I'm doing a bunch of conference calls, this is my speaker.

116

So I plug everything into here.

117

I don't know about you guys, but I'm all about coasters.

118

Just a fun way to kind of just protect your table from those cold darn drinks. So gem coasters.

119

Ah, so pretty.

120

Whenever I have an artist block or I can't think or I just need to reset my brain, this saves my life.

121

It really does.

122

If you are a huge fan of Mario Kart, you and I, we're gonna be best friends.

123

We're besties.

124

Because this is my life.

125

I wish my life was like Mario Kart.

126

I don't care what anyone says, this is the best game ever.

127

So if you're like me and you don't really watch a lot of TV, you're more online, but you still love TV, I mean you love the big screen, It's awesome.

128

It's so easy to use.

129

Just plug your Chrome right into your HDMI.

130

You can watch all your favorite shows, YouTube videos.

131

There's Netflix, Hulu Plus, Google Chrome, and much, much more.

132

So the last thing I want to talk about is Kindle Fire HD.

133

Stay tuned because I'm going to be giving this away

134

and I'll let you guys know when and how to enter to win this.

135

All right, I know that was a lot of stuff I showed you.

136

Believe me, I had to cut that down in half because I have way more products, but I think I'm going to save it for another video.

137

and you learned and you were inspired by what you saw, if there's anything I really want to emphasize on, it's going eco -friendly.

138

Like getting glass bottles, you know, like using canvas bags.

139

It doesn't really take that much effort.

140

It really starts from you.

141

Exciting news!

142

M Cosmetics is now on Amazon, which is awesome because I love Amazon.

143

Actually, a lot of the products you saw in this video were from Amazon.

144

I'm all about the two -day shipping, two -day free shipping.

145

I shared my Prime with like four of my friends and family members, so they get to enjoy it.

146

two -day shipping and Quite honestly, you know, it's a place where I can shop and I can feel comfortable and I can trust.

147

And that's why I decided to partner up with Amazon because I really believe in them.

148

I believe in their shipping.

149

I believe in their customer service.

150

And so if you have an Amazon account, you can now find Em Cosmetics on there.

151

It's legit.

152

It's official.

153

It's from me.

154

Send me your favorite products by hashtagging Mishless so I can find them

155

and maybe I can feature them in my next video.

156

Other than that, thank you guys for watching.

157

I'll see you in my next video.

158

Love you.

159

Bye guys.

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
