Prepare Your Skin For This Diwali

The festival of lights is right around the corner and now is the best time to start pampering your skin for a radiant festive glow, just in time for the celebrations. Most of us typically think of heading to the salon just before holidays but it’s recommended to adopt a skincare routine that’s specifically tailored to suit your skin.

The season change that comes with Diwali demands a skincare routine that is best suited for the cold weather. Especially including steps like exfoliation to remove the dead, flaky skin and other particulate matter, and moisturising is very important.

So here’s how you can prepare your skin for Diwali.

1. Cleansing

As the winter season rolls in, it is important to switch to a mild cleanser that is gentle on your skin yet keeps the dirt, microbes, and gunk at bay. Instead of your usual face wash, try the VLCC Vitamin C Foaming Face Wash, which is packed with the goodness of Vitamin C, which boosts collagen production, protects your skin against free radicals, hydrates it and it also reduces fine lines and wrinkles.

If you have a more oily skin type, then the VLCC Eternal Youth Skin Firming Foaming Face Wash is sure to purify and detoxify your skin. With powerful ingredients like Vitamin E, Aloe Vera, Rose oil, and Lavender oil, this face wash not only purifies your skin but also calms and soothes your skin.

2. Exfoliating (Facials)

It is essential to exfoliate your skin once or twice a week (depending on your skin sensitivity), no matter the season. It is highly effective at removing dead skin cells from your face and, simultaneously, gives you radiant and glowing skin. Depending on how much makeup you use daily, you might have to increase the number of times you exfoliate in a week.

The suppleness of your skin can be increased with a gold facial, giving you younger-looking skin. You can keep your skin appearing young by getting regular gold facials, which helps slow down collagen loss. Due to the anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities of gold, gold facials help heal inflammatory skin conditions. It has powerful anti-oxidant effects which protect the skin’s youthful properties and impart radiance.

Your skin can be harmed by a variety of internal and external factors, and a diamond facial is the perfect solution to counter these factors. This facial not only removes the spots but also aids in restoring the colour and brightness of your skin while also working to reduce inflammation and itchiness.

And if you need a facial that gets you prepped and ready to head out in a jiffy, the VLCC Party Glow Single Facial Kit is the perfect facial to get glowing and radiant skin just in time for your outings.

3. Moisturising

Applying skincare products for winter that are particularly moisturising is crucial as the cold weather saps your skin's natural moisture. To deeply refresh and nurture your skin, use body butter at night. It's just as crucial to maintain a winter skincare regimen at night as it is during the day. Therefore, take all necessary precautions to maintain healthy skin, even at night.

A good body butter like the VLCC Shea & Vitamin E Body Butter is perfect to protect your skin and repair the natural barrier. It is a super rich formulation that delivers the goodness of Shea, Vitamin E and antioxidants. This rich nourishing body butter is like a superfood for your skin.

Another great product to use during the winters is the VLCC Almond Honey Deep Nourishing & Skin Brightening Body Lotion. Nourish and soothe your skin with honey and almond body lotion with a blend of three natural ingredients. It has skin brightening properties, locks in moisture, and gives youthful, radiant skin.

4. Eating Right

Although using external products is effective, eating a balanced diet is always the best option. Make sure you’re eating a balanced diet that has the proper amounts of proteins, carbs, vitamins, and minerals. Fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts of all kinds, fish, and other sea foods should all be consumed regularly if you want to have healthy skin. Avoid packaged goods, sweets, and processed carbs. The finest nourishment for your skin comes from eating fresh, home-cooked meals.

5. Sleep Well & Exercise For Glowing Skin

Lack of sleep is one of the major contributors to dull, dry skin. Lack of sleep also results in eye bags and dark circles. Get 8 hours of sleep every night to maintain healthy, radiant skin. Nothing you spend money on, no matter how costly, will help you if you can't sleep soundly.

The VLCC Eternal Youth Skin Firming Under Eye Gel is an excellent choice for an under eye gel that reduces puffiness and the fatigue under your eyes. It also has ingredients such as peptides that boost collagen production. Collagen is known to promote cell regeneration which in turn reduces the appearance of dark circles..

To show off your Diwali glow this holiday season, create a decent fitness routine and adhere to it along with a healthy diet. If you want to strengthen your body and reduce stress, consider going to the gym, doing power yoga, or engaging in any other physical exercise. Your skin and scalp will receive more blood flow and oxygen thanks to physical exercise, leaving you with a pure luminous shine.

In conclusion, follow these simple tips to ensure a glowing, radiant festive glow that outshines the lights. Explore VLCC range of products for healthy and beautiful skin.
