Daily Skin Care Routine

Hello Everyone,

In my last blog i talked about why it  is important to do facial cleansing daily.Continuing the skin care series today i am going to share 5 simple steps  to keep your skin healthy and glowing.

 Finding a perfect skin care routine that work for you seems like a never ending quest. Most skin care philosophies and theories consist of 5 basic steps that form the foundation of smart and good skin care routine.Let's start the 5 basic steps that can take you towards to make your skin healthy and clear.

Five Basic steps for Daily Skin Care Routine:

• 
  
• Cleansing
• Toning
• Exfoliation
• Moisturize
• Apply SPF

Cleansing:

 A common benefits of facial cleansing is it removes all the dirt,oil and unwanted impurities from the skin. Throughout the day , the skin of the face continually come across pollutants, dirt, bacteria and viruses. So, its very important to clean our face with good cleanser to make our skin feel healthy and give the skin a fresh look.It's the first step in skin care routine.

How to do:

Cleanse your skin twice a day i.e morning and night to keep pores clear and face fresh.Make sure your hands are clean in order to prevent excess dirt from entering your pores.
 

Cleanser may vary based on your skin type. I have oily skin so i use Himalaya Oil Clear Lemon Face Wash. It removes excess oil from the skin. 

Toning:

When you establish your initial daily skin care routine ,toning may have seem unnecessary.According to the most experts toning is essential addition  to  your skin care routine with beneficial effects for your skin.

Toner refers to a lotion or wash designed to cleanse the skin and shrink the appearance of pores, usually used on the face. use a gentle, soothing toner to remove oil and traces of dirt and grime. "Toners are most helpful and necessary for people with oily or acne-prone skin, or for people who want extra cleansing after wearing makeup or other heavy skin products such as sunscreen.

How to Use:

Apply to cotton and gently wipe over cleansed face and neck, morning and evening.

Currently i am using  Biotique -Bio Cucumber  Pore Tightening Toner With Himalayan Waters


Exfoliation:

 Our skin constantly releases millions of skin cells everyday but sometimes those  cells can  build up on the surface of our skin and needs to be removed.

Exfoliation removes that  dead skin  cells that has accumulated in our pores.If you are fighting with blackheads, breakouts and whiteheads , you are definitely not going to miss this step.

How to use:

It's best to exfoliate your skin after toning and before applying moisturize.Exfoliate your skin twice a week.


Moisturize:

Moisturizing helps in providing protective layer to the skin that locks in moisturizer and keep skin hydrated. Hydration gives your skin a smooth and luminous appearance. Moisturize plays a very vital role in your skin care routine and you can't miss this step.Moisturize provides a smooth surface for primer and foundation to blend easily.It's very important to apply moisturizer before starting your makeup.Even for Oily skin type people moisturize is very important.

How to use:

Depending upon on your skin type choose a moisturize. Apply moisturize on your face and neck gently. 

I use Neutrogena Oil- Free Moisture.

Read all about Neutrogena Oil- Free Moisture. 


Note: Opt for moisturizer with SPF of 15 for the daytime.

Apply SPF:

Sun is the most damaging factor for your skin. Applying moisturizer with SPF or  applying sunscreen  after moisturizer helps to protect your skin from harmful sun's UV rays and helps in maintaining  healthy and youthful skin.

How to Use:

Apply Sunscreen before 15 minutes from leaving your house.

Neutrogena UltraSheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 50+

Note: Apply sunscreen daily . If you are not going out and don't want to apply sunscreen then look for moisturize with SPF.

Additional Tips:

• Always remove your makeup.
• Stay hydrated.
• Get 8 hours sleep.
• Apply face mask.

Vicco Turmeric Cream with Foam Base Face Wash : Review

Hello Everyone,

Today i am sharing the review of  Vicco Turmeric Cream with Foam Base Face Wash and why face wash is important for our face.

Regular cleansing is important to maintain healthy looking skin.It is very important to wash your face twice a day .

Yes, i mean  washing your  face morning and night. I know be become lazy to wash our face at night time. Many of us think how i am going to find 3 minutes twice a day. C'mon you are not that busy and it is very much important than you think. And washing your face don't mean splashing your face with water.Rising your face is not washing. A cleanser is needed is remove all the dirt, oil and impurities from the skin.Let's talk why facial cleaning is important.

A common benefits of facial cleansing is it removes all the dirt,oil and unwanted impurities from the skin. Throughout the day , the skin of the face continually come across pollutants, dirt, bacteria and viruses. So, its very important to clean our face with good cleanser to make our skin feel healthy and give the skin a fresh look.

Regular facial cleansing along with the use of a good moisturizer and toner is also an important factor in helping the skin maintain a proper level of hydration. Dehydrated skin looks and feels rough, wrinkled and aged. Cleansing helps manage PH levels of skin.

Without cleansing , skin would be covered with thick layer of dirt, which make difficult for other product to penetrate the skin properly.

Since childhood, i have seen my family  using vicco turmeric cream .Vicco turmeric cream was very important part of dressing table that time. Like nowadays there was not a variety of cream available in market that time.I still remember the ad song .

Recently i came across Vicco face wash and i can't stop myself from using it.

Plants Make People Happy

Hello Everyone,

When we think about decorating our homes, we can easily think of many ways to do it.It could be adding  photos frames or some decors to the side table or to the walls.We just pick some stuff we love from the market and add them in the house.

But there is one thing that we miss when it comes to decorating- adding plants. Yes, many people have disregarded the importance of plants in home.

Most of us know that being close to greenery makes us feel better and happy.

I like gardening — it's a place where I find myself when I need to lose myself. 

When ever i feel low i just go and buy plants, it makes me happy and helps a lot to change my mood.
First think i do in morning is to see my plants . It provides positive energy to start your day.

There are significant benefits of indoor Plants. Let's talk about the benefits.

• Easier Breathing:We all have learned in Science that be breathe oxygen and release carbon dioxide.When the plants undergo photosynthesis, they absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Hence, plants and people are the best partners.

• Reduce Stress: A home with  plants tend to be happier with less stress and fatigue. Well, we can tell from the benefits stated above that with an environment with plants, people would really be happy and cheerful because they would feel better in terms of health and the aura is different with plants around.

• Improve Air Quality: Plants release moisture vapor as part of the process of photosynthesis as well as its respiratory process. Because of this, it increases humidity of the air.

• Better Health Condition: Studies show that plants can calm your heart rate and lower blood pressure. It can also reduce muscle tension that is related to stress. It could also decrease headaches, fatigue, sore throats, colds, coughs, and flu-like symptoms.

• Increases Humidity
• Boost your Mood.

 Plants are  important not just for the outdoor area but even for the interior. It is something that we all need to make us feel even more refreshed. 

So, are you going to bring some plants inside now??

Kurti Lookbook

Hello Everyone,

Kurti Lookbook

Kurtis form an essential part of an Indian women’s wardrobe.
From being ethnic and formal to being casual and comfortable.
Kurtis can be paired with almost anything to everything from trendy scarves and  palazzo or elaborate jewellery with simple kurtis to intricately designed kurtis for wedding and festivals they fulfill almost any purpose. Also, for colleges and offices they are part of dress codes.

If you think kurtis are boring, only for religious functions? Nope, nope,nope.
Kurtis are comfortable, versatile and come in enough styles and patterns to make even the most demanding fashion warriors happy.

Kurtis can be styled in a number of ways. So don't be tense if u have no new clothes you can use your old kurti and style it up with scarves and jewellery to give it a new look.

Today i will be sharing 2 ways to style long kurti .

1. Wear Long Kurti as Dress:

 Fusion is the latest buzz, with a perfect blend of Indo-Western fashion.I have paired up my long kurti with a pair of earrings and simple set of bangles.I have let my hair half clutch and paired it up with pink lipstick from NYX. Don't miss the footwear that actually goes with the dress. Tadaa and you are all set to rock the party with your indo-western look.

Jhumka @Euphorbia Box

 This look is comfortable yet stylish and is perfect to wear for a long day at office party, causal dinner party.

2.Wear long Kurti as Suit:

Modern twist added to the traditional salwar suits . Bored of wearing same old salwar suit. Try this look. No need to buy unstitched material and wait for weeks to get your dress ready an easy way is  just grab your  kurti and pair it with your favorite Dupatta and leggings.

You can pair it with flats also i love to pair it with my pumps.

To make it more traditional i paired it with bindi. kurtis to me are the most comfortable Indian outfit.

 I got the kurti dress at just Rs 1354 from myntra and the best part is that I don’t even have to bother about bottom wear.

Play around a little and see what fits you the best.Try one of these look.
 
What i Wore:

Kurti :  Myntra
Pumps : Mast & Harbour , Myntra  
Dupatta : Max fashion
