The festive season is all about celebration, lights, and selfies! But before you step out, making your skin radiant and healthy should be your top priority. Here’s a simple guide to get that natural festive glow.
CLEANSE GENTLY
Start with a mild, hydrating cleanser to remove dirt, oil, and pollution. Avoid harsh soaps, as they can strip your skin’s natural oils and make it look dull. Clean skin is the first step to a healthy glow.
EXFOLIATE TO REVEAL FRESH SKIN
Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, giving your skin a brighter and smoother look. Use a gentle scrub or chemical exfoliant (AHA/BHA) 1–2 times a week. Don’t overdo it, as excessive exfoliation can irritate your skin.
HYDRATE & MOISTURISE
Moisturising keeps your skin plump and radiant. Choose a moisturiser suited to your skin type, and for extra glow, look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid or aloe vera. A well-hydrated skin naturally reflects light and looks fresh.
PROTECT YOUR SKIN FROM THE SUN
Even during festive shopping or indoor celebrations, UV rays can damage your skin. Apply SPF 30+ daily to prevent dullness and early aging. Sun protection is non-negotiable for glowing skin.
