1. Protect your skin from the harsh rays of sun: Remember this, sun is the biggest enemy for your skin, do not venture out in the skin without a sunscreen. Harmful UVA and UVB rays can not only give you sunburns, it can accelerate premature ageing, cause hyperpigmentation, and cause dark spots. To prevent sun from wreaking havoc on your skin, wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and PA+++ protection to protect your skin and reapply every two hours if you are staying out for too long in the sun.  Also avoid excessive sun exposure, wear hats, full sleeve clothes, and cover your face with scarf while venturing outside.

2. Find a good and gentle cleanser for your skin type: Most women use wrong products on the skin. Stop doing that mistake, start reading labels and pick products that are meant for your skin type. For example, a creamy cleanser would not suit you if you have oily skin. Use a gentle cleanser every morning and night to keep your skin clean. Avoid washing your face frequently as it may rip off moisture from your skin.

3. Follow a proper skin care routine: Start with cleansing, then toning, serum, and then a moisturizer followed by sunscreen. You can do your makeup on top. If you layer skincare products wrongly, you would not be able to reap benefits of any of the products. This is the most accurate way to enhance your facial skin.

4. Invest in good skincare products: Never take a chance with your skin when it comes to skincare products. Use good-quality products from reputed brands, and without harmful chemicals in them. If  you pamper your skin, it will definitely give you reasons to smile.

5. Follow CTM routine two times a day: Follow cleansing-toning-moisturizing routine twice a day – in the morning and at bedtime after removing makeup. Invest in a good night cream as well so that it replenishes and repairs your skin at night while you are asleep so that you wake up supple and beautiful skin.

6. Remove every bit of makeup at night and sleep with a clean face: Can makeup ruin your skin? Yes, it can if you leave it overnight. If you sleep with your makeup on, it will clog pores and damage skin. It’s a cardinal sin to sleep with makeup on. Use a good makeup remover at night to take down every trace of makeup.

7. Use face masks: Just like you pamper yourself with shopping, movies, outings, your skin too needs TLC every week! You could use sheet masks or homemade face masks to rejuvenate your skin.

8. Drink lots of water: This is every super-model’s secret! They all love water! We need enough water to flush out toxins from the body. Just like any other organ, skin too depends largely on water to flush out harmful toxins. Drinking water will help the skin to get rid of those harmful toxins also helps the skin stay moisturised from within, plus you’ll have better body, nails and hair! Also eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables for better looking skin.

9. Keep your hand away from your face: Avoid touching your face with your fingers. Touching your face will cause it to get oily and also transfer bacteria to your face. Avoid touching, squeezing pimples.

10. Use minimum makeup: We have nothing against makeup and personally love makeup but using too much makeup can irritate skin and cause acne hormonal imbalance and even premature ageing. For example, instead of using heavy foundation daily, use a BB cream.

11. Try Oil Cleansing: Cleansing skin thoroughly, pore by pore, without stripping the skin’s natural oils and moisture is the idea behind oil cleansing. We have a detailed post on how you can do “Oil Cleansing at Home” here.

12. Exfoliate Skin Gently with Glycolic Acid: Glycolic acid, one of the most popular AHA (alpha hydroxy acids), is a multitasker skincare ingredient because it exfoliates without causing abrasions, smooths out rough skin, and also brightens up skin tone. However, there’s a misconception that glycolic acid is only for acne-prone skin and that’s not true because it helps to maintain a smooth texture, regardless of your skin type. From refining the texture of skin to reducing melasma and hyperpigmentation, glycolic acid can do it all and the good thing about glycolic acid is that, there are hardly any side effects (initially tingling and mild irritation are reported), but unlike hydroquinone, it does not ruin your skin with prolonged use. Here’s a list of the Best Glycolic Acid Based Serums that you can check out.

13. Do not forget the Eye Cream: If you want to avoid fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and want to keep that area smooth and luminous, an eye cream is a must. An eye cream should be applied both during day and night time for brighter and younger-looking eye. Here’s a list of some of the Best Eye Creams for smooth eye area.

14. Include Hyaluronic Acid Skincare Routine: Hyaluronic acid plays an important role in keeping our skin looking fresh and young. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is the best ingredient to retain water in our skin, resulting increased smoothness and softness of the skin. Hyaluronic acid acts as an excellent moisturizer and gives a grown-up’s skin a fresher, younger and supple look. As we grow old, our body drastically reduces the production of hyaluronic acid leading to wrinkles, crow’s feet and other ageing issues. Pollution, harsh skincare, ageing, and wrong products can decrease the level of hyaluronic acid in the skin, so it’s important to replenish it, so look for hyaluronic acid-based ointments and creams. Our suggestions would be Hyalugel and these 9 Hyaluronic Acid Serums.
