Hey everyone!
Many have requested me to write about my skin care routine in the past days, but I didn't get a chance to do this post. But today I kept my laziness away and listed my current Day-time Skin care routine products. Hope you find this post useful!
My Current Day tine Skin Care Routine
I don't have any major issues of pigmentation or acne that needs extra care, this is the reason I only stick to a good skin care regime with the basic ~ Cleaning + Toning + Moisturising method. Always remember to eat healthy food, avoid stress, exercise daily and drink minimum 3-4 litres of water everyday. Indulge in less oil and more fruits and green vegetables for that glowing skin thats from deep within.I have dry skin which tends to become combination in summers with an oily T-zone. This routine help my skin stay hydrated and glowing.
DAY-TIME ROUTINE
My Current Day time Skin care routine
- Cleansing : Forest Essentials Facial Cleanser/Himalaya Oil Control Lemon Foaming Face Wash
I generally stick to soap-free cleansers as they work better for my skin. Initially I was using the Forest Essentials Mashobra, Wild Honey, Lemon and Rosewater cleanser which was quite mild and gentle on my skin. A dollop was enough to make my skin squeaky clean with instant moisturisation and my skin doesn't urge for extra hydration immediately. I was alternating it with the Himalaya Oil Control Lemon Foaming Face Wash which too hydrates my skin gently. Its quite affordable and smells citrus-y.
- Exfoliation : The Nature's Co Coffee Face Scrub/Himalaya Neem scrub
I scrub my face 1-2 times a week, alternating with this 2 gentle scrubs instead of the facewash to cleanse my skin. My skin feels much more soft and supple after using this. The scrub particles in each of these are quite gentle on skin and takes off dirt easily without harming your skin.
- Face Pack : Himalaya Neem Face Pack/Forest Essentials Narangi and Nagkesar Ubtan
I apply face pack 3-4 times a week after cleansing/scrubbing. This step gives glow and radiance to he face. I use this mostly with rose water instead of plain water.
- Toning : Nivea Aqua Effect Refreshing Toner
After cleansing and exfoliation, skin tends to urge for more hydration and Nivea Aqua Effect Refreshing Toner does its job well. It instantly softens and hydrates my skin.
- Lip Scrub : Forest Essentials Lip Scrub
I couldn't resist myself from picking this amazing product on my visit to Forest Essentials store. A bit of product (lip scrub) on your finger when rubbed on your lips, the dead cells and chapped skin vanishes in seconds. I have been using this for past 15 days and totally in love with this product.
- Eye Cream : Lakme Youth Infinity Skin Firming Eye Cream
When I finished up my Aroma Magic Under Eye Gel, I bought Lakme Youth Infinity Eye Cream to get rid of my under eye pigmentation. I wanted a eye cream that's ~ light texture and hydrating as the skin under the eyes are very sensitive. I have been using it for the past 1 month and it has reduced my dark circles to a greater extent, but still I will give my final outcome once I finishes the product.
- Polishing Serum : Lakme Perfect Radiance Intense Whitening Serum
I was already using the Lakme Perfect Radiance 4 week Intense treatment capsules (Read review here) before I went out to try the New! Lakme Perfect Radiance Polishing Serum. Lakme Perfect Radiance Intense Whitening Polishing Serum has brightened my skin with added radiance and softness. Its very light-weight and quick absorbing without making my skin greasy.
- Moisturizer : Shiseido The Skin care Day Essential Moisturizer
For my day time routine, I am using Shiseido The Skincare Day Essential Moisturizer which has SPF 20. The texture is very light and absorbs in my skin quickly like dream without any greasiness.
- Sunscreen : Lotus Herbals 3-in-1 matte look daily Sunscreen SPF 40
I only trust Lotus Herbals 3-in-1 matte look daily sunblock SPF 40 when stepping out of the house over the moisturiser for that added sun protection. I was previously using the Lotus Herbals Collagen Shield Sun Protection SPF 90 (Read Review here). DO NOT EVER SKIP SUNSCREEN.
- Lip Balm : Nivea Fruity Shine Pomegranate
I only trust Nivea Fruity Shine or Maybelline Baby Lips for moisturising my lips. Nivea Fruity Shine in Pomegranate gives beautiful plum tint to the lips that stays for about 3-4 hours with light meals and you need to apply this in short intervals. (Read Review here).
