We constantly focus on maintaining a youthful glow on our face and follow a lot of skincare routines. But we often miss out on one of the most used body parts. And that is our HAND. So what do you think about some simple handcare tips?
You know your hands have the power to make a very strong first impression be it with a handshake or friendly wave.
Well, hello!! If you are not staying under a rock, you must have heard that you need sunscreen to protect your skin from the UVA and UVB rays of the sun. I do not think anyone wants to see their own skin wrinkly and burnt by the sun. A sunscreen of SPF 30 will block 97% of the sun’s rays. A higher SPF will block slightly more UV rays, but there is no sunscreen that will block 100% of the rays. Look for an SPF 30 at least but it is not proven that an SPF 40 or 50 will give you a little bit more protection than the 30.
I dreamed of being a fashion designer, or a painter. I could not decide between the two and decided to change my path and become a social media marketer. Through promoting other brands, I came across how YouTube as a platform helps people so much and I thought let’s make a channel and start posting about makeup, skincare and fashion in general. I will say that my videos do need a long way to go I am just starting but I am being as authentic as I can be.
Who wouldn’t want perfect skin so they can go at least one day leaving the house without wearing any makeup? Having a flawless complexion will give you the confidence to rock the bare look. We believe that the skin needs to breathe and you have to allow it to shine from inside rather than relying on chemicals too often. You will eventually realize that it is less about buying truckloads of products than maintaining a few things in your day-to-day life.

With March, comes the festival of colors: Holi! Widely celebrated in India, this festival not only brings your entire clan together but also engages everyone to have child-like fun with bright colors, splashes of water, and some very delicious sweets and thandai. It is that time of the year when we are bathed in a mishmash of colors, both dry and water mixed. While some run away from them, some joyfully play and get dirty. But, there is no escaping it. While traditionally it was celebrated with dry gulal and buckets of water, unfortunately, today it comes with splashes of synthetic pigments: lead oxide (black), copper sulfate (green), and mercury sulfide (red). All these are harmful to our skin and can invite skin allergies and adverse skin conditions.
Most of the people might tend to reflect upon summer in a fond light: lazy beach days, a bounty of festivals, and endless sunshine. But with higher temperatures comes a dreaded side effect: acne! Pimples can be one of the most stubborn skin concerns 365 days a year, but it is known to get worse during hot weather, which means: Summer season! Summer is traditionally associated with hot or warm weather, and it is because of this extreme weather condition, people suffer major acne problems during this season.

You must have heard about essential oils and how their introduction to your daily life can prove to be beneficial. Essential oils have been used for thousands of years in ancient civilizations such as traditional Chinese culture, Egyptians, Vedic Indian culture, and the Roman Empire. These oils were used in different religions and ceremonial rituals symbolizing purification and were also used in healing therapies. They are highly concentrated and serve multiple purposes. But first, let’s take a small brief on what are essential oils.
When it comes to anti-aging cosmetic treatments, it seems like “rejuvenation” is the latest buzzword. After all, there are tons of creams, serums, and exfoliants out there designed to rejuvenate and renew your complexion. But what if you don’t want to wait for your skin to start showing the signs of aging to start your anti-aging skincare regimen?
Wearing a face mask, maintaining social distancing and washing/sanitizing hands are important ways to lessen the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19. Since masks are essential and have become an integral part of our lives, it is important to do whatever we can to overcome the concern we have about wearing them. Sometimes, for some people, wearing a mask can cause breakouts, rashes, and other skin problems on the face. And for those who already have such skin conditions, wearing a mask for a prolonged time can worsen the condition.
“You can’t create a youthful complexion later in life, you can only maintain the one you have now.” We have already stressed this point when we discussed the morning skincare routine. There are two skincare regimens: Morning (AM) and Night (PM). However, the night skincare routine is not as popular as the morning routine is. The morning routine has been widely discussed in the press and touted as the miracle pill in maintaining the age of your skin. But people seldom talk about its cousin: night routine! Just because it is not as popular as the AM routine, that doesn’t mean you should ignore your PM skincare regimen.
Well, we have seen that foods (think of honey, yogurt, sugar, etc.) become a large part of our beauty regimen. It shouldn’t come as a surprise if we told you that caviar is another such ingredient. Yes, caviar! And yes, we are talking about fish eggs. Once thought to be a delicacy fit for only the upper-class, caviar is now a luxury that is widely available as affordable skincare (bringing a little bit of fancy to our lives ;)).
