FACE MISTS THAT ARE TOTALLY WORTH YOUR MONEY

-

It took me a minute to come around to face mists, which—let's be honest—may appear to be nothing much more than atomized H20 to many of you. In short, a total waste of time and money. But hear me out: the ones you’ll see here are brimming with skin-loving ingredients, calming Rosewater, and even water from the French Alps. Just ONE spritz on my just cleansed and bare face was enough to change my life (and skin) forever. How you ask? Well...it instantly makes me feel revived, comes to my rescue at work when all I want to do is a nap after lunch and cools, soothes and hydrates my complexion when I need a midday pick-me-up. Ahead, a bunch of facial mists that you are bound to love: 1. AVENE THERMAL SPRING WATER Think of it as water, but with supernatural powers. It’s packed with skin-softening silicates and has a balanced dose of Calcium and Magnesium that work together to improve skin's texture and strengthen its barrier. Plus, its pH level of 7.5, ma...

MONSOON ESSENTIALS: WATERPROOF MAKEUP

-
Image
Runny foundation leaking on your collar, mascara streaks on cheeks, and weeping lipstick do not a pretty picture make. If the rains leave you looking like a mess, don’t sweat it. While you can’t do much about getting a little drenched in the rains, you can make sure your makeup withstands the elements and stands its ground. Here’s how you can melt-proof your makeup! LIGHT AND EASY DOES IT At the risk of sounding clichéd, less is more. The more you slather on the faster the meltdown. This starts with skincare; you don’t need heavy moisturizers in monsoons. Instead use a lighter, water-based moisturizer or serum like L’Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essence SPF 50 that does double duty as a moisturizer and SPF. If you have unusually dry skin, stick to a mattifying moisturizing serum like Innisfree The Green Tea Seed Serum with organic Jeju green tea and green tea seeds that hydrates your skin from deep within. SAY NO TO FOUNDATION Heavy foundations weight down the skin, block pores and ma...

PICK-ME-UP EYE MASKS THAT WORK IN UNDER TEN MINUTES

-
Image
Four and a half hours of sleep on Tuesday, five hours on Wednesday...does this sound all too familiar? If you’re not one of those people who hit the pillow at 9 p.m. and barely manage to get “eight hours of beauty sleep” a couple of times a week, then you must know the feeling of waking up to unsightly, circles, lines and puffiness beneath your sleep-deprived eyes. That’s because the skin around the eye area is extremely fragile and it takes very little for it to start looking puffy, and congested. And while, a concealer can brighten, strategically hide any darkness and even lift your fatigued-looking peepers, they can only do so much. That’s why you need to call in the big guns a.k.a eye masks . Yup, these little guys pack a punch of good-for-you ingredients such as Ceramides, Glycerine, Cucumber and Vitamins that work instantly to shrink your under-eye bags, hydrate and revive, all in under 10 minutes.   Specifically formulated to tackle it all—pesky puffin...

The Coronavirus pandemic has made us hyper-aware of our personal hygiene, to say the least. As of April, most Indian states made it mandatory for everyone to wear a mask while stepping outdoors. However, while as important wearing a mask is, it certainly comes with its own repertoire of serious skin issues.  According to Dermatologist Chris Huerter, MD at CHI Health , while wearing a face mask for the first time, or for extended periods of time, a few problems can come into play: Maskne, Perioral Dermatitis, and Friction irritations. Reiterating the fact are many health care providers and frontline workers who’ve been wearing specialized masks for hours at a stretch—resulting in painful skin rashes, chafing, and abrasions.  ‘Hero’ wounds if you will.

HAND SANITIZERS THAT WORK AS THE BEST HAND CLEANSING ELIXIRS

-

You’ve got to admit the Novel Coronavirus has got everyone’s attention like no other – pushing things, people and even countries to a standstill. As COVID-19 spread, panic spread at a much higher rate and before you knew it, sanitizers flew off the shelves faster than the lockdown hit you. Truth is the only best way to keep the distance from this virus is the old-fashioned drill of washing your hands with soap and water. That said, it isn’t the most convenient or eco-friendly way of keeping your hands clean. Ideally, you still need a solution that doesn’t require water and is still effective enough. This is where the sanitizer rises to the occasion. Although it is NOT a substitute for washing hands, frequent sanitization with an effective hand sanitizer can keep you safe during this pandemic. Now isn’t that just what you’ve been secretly hoping for, eh !? For starters, to help you identify the kind of sanitizer that aligns with your needs here’s a quick lowdow...
