My DAY Skin Care Routine

                  This is not a vanity; its a basic fundamental maintenance for our skin. As we all know we are so used to wearing makeup, we live in a sunny country, we take hot showers, work in air

 conditioning and sit in front of heaters. All these activities harm our skin daily, so we need to recover back what is damaged, and clean off what has been pushed into the skin, to calm down the ageing process.  
                              One should drink lots of water but don't just gulp it drink slowly, eat healthy diet, exercise and be happy. When my skin is at it's best, it's because i am treating it nicely, remembering to exfoliate it after a long day of applying make up many times etc.

               Skin care is very personal - there are so many products launching every month and lots of them are really worth buying. But we just cant buy all of them and narrowing down to one product can be difficult but the only way to find out if a product works on you, is to try it yourself remember take your time and listen to your skin. 


                             MORNING SKIN CARE :- 


STEP 1 -  
            First thing I do in the morning is wash my face with an anti-oxidant cleanser. They are very important as they help remove excess oil and impurities.

• Here I am mentioning some home made cleansers, which you can put to use and as you already know they are without any negative effects.

        1. FOR DRY SKIN :-

                                Aloe Vera juice      1 tbsp 

                                Lemon juice            2 drops 

                                Almond oil              2 drops   

         Mix all these ingredients and use this gel as we use cleanser. Wash your face with lukewarm water.

        2. FOR OILY SKIN :-

                                Aloe Vera juice    1 tbsp 

                                Rose oil                2 drops 

                                Almond oil            4 drops   

          Mix all these ingredients and use this gel as we use cleanser. Wash your face with lukewarm water.

STEP 2 -
           For me, toning is one of the most important step. I apply a toner as soon as I get out of my shower, because I feel it effects more when the pores are open.

STEP 3 -
           If my skin is feeling on the dry side, I will apply a thin layer of Moisturizing Gel. If however, my skin feels comfortable or a bit oily that day, I will skip this step.
                     
STEP 4 -   
           In recent years Eye care has become one of my top priorities and i rotate many eye creams. Some of them, I prefer to use at day and some specially for the night.
                                 I apply my eye cream, while the toner on my is drying. I massage my eye product in between my ring fingers and gently pat onto my under eye area. Then i give it a gentle 10 seconds massage.

STEP 5 -
        Lastly, if you want to apply make-up you can now otherwise you can just leave the house with sunscreen to protect your skin from sun damage.



                            EVENING SKIN CARE :-

STEP 1 -
          Always do remember, when ever you are back from work first remove your eye makeup with eye

makeup remover. It should be non-irritating and easily gets rid of even waterproof makeup.

STEP 2 -
           Then I remove the rest of my face makeup using face makeup remover. Use a gentle makeup remover,which don't leave any sort of residue behind.   

STEP 3 -
           Lastly, wash your face with your favorite cleanser.

• You can use some home made face wash.

      1. FOR DRY SKIN :-

  

                             Gram flour     1 tbsp

                             Rose oil         2-4 drops

                             Almond oil     4-5 drops

                             Rose water  

            Mix all the ingredients and make a thin paste. Scrub it gently on your face for 5 to 10 minutes. Rinse with normal water.

       2   FOR OILY SKIN :-

                             Gram flour     1 tbsp

                             Orange oil      2-4 drops
