Skincare Routine for this Festive Season | Combination + Oily Skin Type
By Bhawna D. - October 18, 2017
We are
amidst a month which is full of festivals each week! And in case you’re still
seeking a skincare routine to look bomb(dot)com, then consider your dilemmas
resolved. Today, I shall elaborate upon my personal skincare for looking super
glowing, with a healthy & pimple free skin. Might be that this post shall
turn out small but who cares! It’s all about solving your worries than fighting
the SEO rule of Content Ratio = to Page Coding. *Meh* 😏
Before
beginning, let me first elaborate upon my skin type. This will ensure that you
can understand what product would work well for you if it’s turning out good
for me. My skin is combination to oily; it gets hyper active to produce
oil within summers whereas in winters I get dry patches. Also, just a little
disclaimer – some things might work for me & they might do no miracle for
you. Make sure to do a patch test beforehand. I know, I’ve heard this statement
before a lot many times and you’d be like “Girl,
hand and facial skin is like sisters from different misters”! 😐 I get your
concern, that’s why I advise you to patch test onto your neck region rather
than wrist. So, with that we begin today’s post –
AHA Glow is
one of the best facial cleansers that I return back to when my skin strives to
look good. It’s like that one remedy I know which would stop me from getting
more acne or treating ones which already exist onto my face. Now, I’ve tried Cetaphil and that expensive lot but AHA
Glow is an Indian manufacturing by Torrent Pharma. It contains – Aloe Vera,
Glycolic Acid, Vitamin E & Gel Base. What I love about this is it cleans
off dirt and keeps away the excess sebum.
Benefits:
👉Rejuvenates
the skin by encouraging the shedding of old and dead skin cells.
👉Reduces the
number of superficial wrinkles
👉Improves
skin texture and tone
👉Unblocks and
cleanses the pores
This is a
multipurpose product which you can use as a cleanser, scrub & mask. I love
it exclusively for masking purposes. It makes the skin soft & smooth with
immediate radiance endowed. Also, it doesn’t leave the skin dry and makes it
perfect not only for oily skin but normal to combination skin as well. For
hydration purposes, it has aloe vera and jojoba oil into it. Thankfully,
this one is parabens and sulphate free. Since Mud Ash also comprises Tea Tree,
this makes it perfect for keeping acne at bay which erupts only when their
emergence should have been abolished!
There’s a
reason as to why I prefer masking first and then scrubbing. For a good
exfoliated skin, it’s always necessary to keep the skin supple and moisturized
so that any dirt or clogging can be easily removed. Now, scrubs won’t
completely get you rid of black or white heads but scrubbing for a minute or
two would create your face as a canvas wherein extraction would be really easy.
Fuschia’s Pomegranate Pearls Face Scrub has
an amazing bubblegum fragrance which I love sniffing upon. Also, the base of it
is really hydrating but leaves no grease on the face post washing off. The
exfoliating granules are really minute which makes it suitable for acne prone
or sensitive skin. But please remember, in case you have a pimple at its full
bloom, DO NOT use an exfoliator. Wait for few days till it naturally subsides.
STEP 4: Himalaya Herbals Oil Free Gel
Cream [Day Use] (for Moisturizing)
I’ve never
liked those creams that not merely cater hydration but also become one of the
woes which give you glimmer face with sweat! And having oily skin, you don’t
want more oil slathered onto your face. This is why, a gel based moisturizer or cleanser works best for an oily skin. Sometime back, I picked up this oil free gel from Himalaya Stores and I've loved it's formulation. It works really well as a base for your everyday makeup and in case you dont wanna use a primer on an everyday basis, this can work as an easy replacement to help you in blending that makeup flawlessly!

STEP 5: LOA’s Miracle Oil [Night Use]
True to its
name, this facial oil is indeed miraculous! On days when I've seen my skin getting attacked by more than two pimples, I know my weapon for the night. Application is so easy for this, all you need to do is take out few drops and massage it onto your face for a minute. Trust me, it has helped in taming and calming my acne every single time; almost to 50%. It nourishes your skin at the time you don't have to go out and worry about sweating. It does smell a little weird but the amount of results that are acquired after its usage, stops me never from picking this product. It's completely natural and suitable for all skin type.

Much Love ❤
