It’s been more than a week, we all are self-quarantine and it starts feeling bored to be at home all the time.
Only one thing is fine, there is no pressure to look good, wear trendy clothes and put on makeup. We can be at our laziest best and just do the mundane work.
But don’t you think, it is also the best time to do things which we couldn’t do before. So, why not utilize this home quarantine to self-care? Skincare is the most essential self-care which you should start right away.
We all know the importance of skincare routine, and it is the perfect time to pamper your skin at home. I know for many of you (referring females), the work has gotten double; still, take out the time because if not now then when will you start.
Therefore, make the most of this quarantine.
Indeed, your skin is protected from dust, pollutants and harmful UV rays as you are not stepping outside, still, your skin can get affected due to dryness and infra-rays from your laptop, TV, tube light, etc.
Before I use to just follow the CTM routine (cleansing, toning, moisturizer) and that too only in the morning, no night routine.
But for 6 months, I have added a few more products to my routine and also started with night skin-care. I must tell you, my skin has become more clear and supple.
Hence, I recommend you all to follow the skincare routine and not let this quarantine period go away just like that.
I can assure you, after 2weeks of daily skin-care, you will feel a positive difference. Skincare routine requires hardly 10-15mins of your valuable time. Start today and pamper your skin for a beautiful “YOU”

Now, let me share with you a few skincare tips which you can do once a week along with your work. I am sharing the products I use or recommend.
1. Face Packs or Masks
Apply the face packs or masks and get back to your quarantine homework. These products are known for their enriching ingredients which help you to give a clear and healthy skin.
Use it once a week to get the desired result. The charcoal face mask we had used and it not only removes the dirt, but also the open and closed comedones. Try it yourself and see the outcome.
2. Facial Kit
As you can’t go to parlour anymore and get yourself relaxed, do it yourself at home or tell your companion to do it for you.
Give an hour to yourself and pamper with the facial kit as it has all the products from cleansing to hydrating which will give you a flawless look.
I have used the VLCC papaya kit as many parlours use it, as it is very effective and makes the skin smooth.
3. Sheet masks
I have recently discovered the benefits of using sheet masks. The face mask sheets provide deeply-hydrating experience; infuse your skin with vital moisture while helping improve overall tone and firmness.
As summer is here, hydrate your skin and if you don’t want to opt for facial kit and face pack, go for a sheet mask.
Korean or Japanese sheet mask is famous, I have used both, but I prefer MINISO, a Japan-based designer brand due to pocket-friendly.
All you need to do is apply the sheet mask and continue with your work, remove it after 10-15mins. It helps to create firmer, healthier, more balanced skin for radiant confidence.
*Pro Tip: Keep the sheet mask in the fridge for the cooling effect.
4. Face scrub
Use face scrub once or twice a week. Scrubbing keeps the skin healthy by cleansing it from deep within. It removes dead skin cells, blackheads, whiteheads, etc.
Face scrub improves the skin’s overall texture and gives a refreshing and glowing skin. Exfoliation is one of the significances of your skincare routine.
I have used both Inatur and Divine organics face scrub, which is effective and good for the skin.
5. Nose pore strips
Nose pore strips are the painless way to remove the comedones, oil, and dirt with an instant effect. The strips pull out the particles smoothly and give you a clean nose.
Wash your face with lukewarm water and apply the strip. Keep it for 10-15mins and then remove to see the result yourself.
Now, at least you can do this if not others told above. It just takes 2 minutes and you can go back to your duties at home. You can either go for Miniso or HipHop as both are efficacious.
As we are at home and living only on the most essential things, you can take care of your skin according to the products you have. I am sure; there must be a few of them, so start the skin-care routine now, even am using the mist instead of toner.
Once the quarantine is over, you can shop the products you want to have because Amazon also doesn’t have in stocks and not delivering.
Till then, pamper your skin and nourish them
