Daily routine for a blemish-free skin
“Before sleeping, cleansing your skin of the dirt and oil collected throughout the day and then moisturizing is very crucial for skin health. I recommend some steps to have a consistent night skincare routine. First, it doesn’t need to be right before you sleep. Find a time comfortable for you, when you get home in the evening or when you are done with dinner. Second, keep it simple. Use less but impactful products and no waiting in between applications. And lastly, moisturizing is crucial. During the day, a moisturizer can feel greasy, but at night you can give your skin all the nourishment it needs,” says Sezal Jain, Founder, Loud Skin.
Is Vitamin C serum actually good for the skin?
A skincare legend, Vitamin C serum is revered for its wealth of advantages. Maintaining skin suppleness and preventing wrinkles and fine lines require collagen. Utilizing Vitamin C serum on a regular basis helps promote collagen formation, keeping your skin firm and youthful. It also bestows necessary hydration, leaving skin plump and supple, with some formulas enhanced with moisturizing products like hyaluronic acid. Beyond aesthetic benefits, this serum promotes scar fading and wound healing, and its anti-inflammatory effects calm inflamed skin and reduce redness, says Paridhi Goel, beauty expert at Love Earth.
How to apply Vitamin C serum?
“The best time to apply Vitamin C is morning. After cleansing, apply Vitamin C serum before applying sunscreen. Start with a lower concentration of Vitamin C serum and then gradually build up the concentration as it suits the skin. Avoid using a Vitamin C serum on dry sensitive skin. Avoid using Vitamin C with retinol or AHAs/ BHAs. If retinol is to be used, use it at night and Vitamin C in the morning,” says Dr. Ishmeet Kaur, MBBS, MD Dermatology, Director and Co-Founder of Dermosphere Clinic.
Role of a balanced diet
A balanced diet is significant in maintaining wrinkle-free skin by providing essential nutrients for soft, supple, and young-looking skin. A diet high in antioxidants, such as Vitamins A, C, and E, helps combat oxidative stress and free radicals, which are major contributors to skin aging and wrinkles. Besides, protein intake supports the production of collagen and elastin which keep the skin firm and wrinkle-free. The role of hydration cannot be undermined as it prevents the appearance of fine lines on the skin.
“Maintaining a healthy diet is important for clear and healthy skin. While there are no specific foods that guarantee perfect skin, certain nutrients can support skin health and help improve its texture. Foods rich in Omega 3 Fatty Acids and Vitamin C help prevent aging and they should be part of one’s regular diet along with a healthy beauty routine”, says Dr. Ishmeet Kaur.
