COMFORT COMES HOME
Femina|April 24, 2020
It’s always great to unwind at a spa or relax with a salon session, isn’t it? But when the world is struggling to deal with COVID-19 and the lockdown, how about bringing salon home with quick DIYs?
COMFORT COMES HOME

Let’s accept it; it gets a little challenging to follow a proper routine while working from home. Most of us get to our laptops and computers immediately after waking up. Eating while working, answering calls simultaneously, cooking the next meal, and meeting deadlines—we are becoming pro at multitasking. However, our skincare takes a back seat, doesn’t it?

If you are looking for something more than just the usual ‘Netflix and chill’ for your time at home, consider focusing on your skincare routine and enhancing it for optimal benefits. Now is the time to reap the best of those skincare products and home remedies.

Without further ado, let’s dive into the facts. The change in air around, sleep patterns, food, and eating habits, among many other factors, impact the health of the skin. It may get oily or dry, experience more breakouts, get dull, or lose luminosity. It’s, therefore, essential to stick to a routine to keep the health of the skin under check.

ICE YOUR FACE

As temperatures rise, consider swiping an ice cube onto your face after cleansing it, to cool it down. It also ensures your pores are tightened, and prevents breakouts caused by the heat.

ADD AN EXTRA STEP TO THAT CTM ROUTINE

Skin essences are gaining popularity and so while you have time on your hands consider including them in your CTM routine. This lightweight product preps your skin to absorb your serum or moisturiser more effectively. It also offers additional benefits like smoothing fine lines, maintaining moisture levels and so on. Skin essence is to be used after cleansing and toning your skin, but before moisturising.

CUT EXTRA SUGAR
