How to make your Skin look like it is wearing an Instagram filter !

Alrighty, so after travelling and some wedding inspiration, how can we forget the Skin !
You would obviously want to be having a great skin for all those selfies and good looking candid pictures.
All of us want a healthy, glowing and clear skin. Well, sorry to break it to you ladies, but the perfect skin does take some work.


So, regardless if you are a bride-to-be or no, these skin care tips will help help you get the skin that you have dreamed of.

1. The Magical Drink called WATER !



Yes Ladies ! Water is indeed magical. Keeping yourself hydrated and drinking plenty of water (4-5 liters) daily will give you a clear and radiant skin.
Drinking a glass of warm water every morning is a great way to detox. So, when your mum yelled at you for not drinking enough water in the day, you should have listened to her !

2. Eat your Greens.




Well I know for most of us either we dislike eating veggies or just can't find the time too. However, the sad part is the more unhealthy food we eat, the more breakouts we face. Including fresh veggies and fruits in your daily diet will give you a fresh looking skin. So starting today let's try and eat healthier !

3. Moisturize.

As much I would emphasize on the importance of moisturizing your skin, it will still not be enough.
I personally love the Body Shop Vitamin C Glow Boosting Moisturiser.
Water will help you feel hydrated from and give you that inner glow, however, it is equally important to replenish your skin from the outside as well. And, please do not think that if you have an oily skin or an combination skin you will not need to apply moisturizer ! Apply a moisturizer after shower and once more during the day whenever you feel the need for it.

4. Make Sunscreen your Best friend !

Lather on that sunblock regardless if the sun is shinning bright or no on any given day. The sun rays do damage your skin even if they not harsh on a particular day, when you think of skipping on the sunscreen. I use the Lotus Herbals Safe Sun UV Screen Matte Gel, it works great for oily skin types like mine. Always try and buy a travel size tube or bottle so that you can throw in your bag and carry it around. Make sure you re-apply sunscreen in every 2 hours when you step outdoors.

5. Exfoliate and Clean those Pores

It really is important that you exfoliate your skin well. Using a scrub at least thrice a week makes sure that all the dust and impurities that clog your pores is removed, giving you a clear skin. I do suffer from horrendous backheads, using Neutrogena Blackhead Eliminating Scrub every alternate day after facewash has literally vanished my backheads.


6. Night cream and face serum (Pamper your skin every night !)

Night time routine is extremely important if you want that beautiful skin. Skincare products work better during the night when you are sleeping. Because your body is at rest and skin is completely bare.

Not many people know that Fabindia skincare products are one of the best and also really affordable. This Fabindia Vitamin E Enriched Night Cream, with vitamin e really gives you a glowing skin the next morning. Regular use makes your skin super soft and glowing. Follow this with a face serum.

A face serum is great for uplifting your skin. The Neutrogena Fine Fairness Brightening Serum has a great light weight formula. It is not something that will help lighten your skin shade, but it does brighten your skin. A bright skin with a beautiful glow is what this serum will ensure you.

7. Aloe Vera Gel ! The Natural Face Lifter

If you are like me, who does not like the tingling feeling of toners, then aloe vera gel is your answer. Aloe Vera gel works amazingly well as a toner and firmer. Forest Essentials Light Hydrating Facial Gel is my personal pick.

8. Face Masks/ Packs, the final step !

We Indians have always known the importance of face packs/masks. We got the world to know the importance of Multani Matti. Forest Essentials Facial Ubtan Multani Matti, is what I use. Just mix it with a little rose water until it a pasty consistency. Once it dries off and starts to pull on your skin, wash it off with water (preferably cold water).

Follow these tips for that dreamy, glowing and healthy skin all year around.
