HOW TO PROTECT YOUR SKIN FROM POLLUTION THIS DIWALI
Written by Chandni GhoshOct 16, 2017
You might love mostly everything about Diwali but you’ve got to agree that the air pollution is such a downer, for the environment and for your skin. Air pollution and the toxins in the environment can easily cause your complexion to turn dull and in worse cases, even lead to acne. If you want the answer to how to protect your skin from pollution during Diwali, follow this skin care routine...
It might be a good idea to make changes in your skin care routine a little before and during Diwali. While a mild face wash might do the trick for you on other days, to fight the air pollution and toxins during Diwali, your skin needs to be armed with something that is powerful. For that, our skin care tip would be to add the Pond’s Pure White Anti Pollution Face Wash. This skin care product contains activated carbon, which easily absorbs impurities along with reducing blemishes while revealing a radiant and flawless complexion. Make this a part of your Diwali skin care routine if you truly wish to fight pollution.
Rely on haldi
Known for its medicinal powers and antibacterial properties, turmeric will work best to protect your skin against pollution this Diwali. To make the most of haldi, our skin care tip would be to go for the Ayush Anti Marks Turmeric Face Cream that contains Kumkumadi Tailam, which is a blend of 16 herbs and oils that will give you healthy and glowing skin. Moreover, its extracts also soothe your skin along with fighting the scars and improving your complexion because pollution affects your complexion too.
Layer your skin care routine
Layering your skin care is crucial when it comes to keeping away from pollution on Diwali. This is when you disallow the toxins to not settle directly on your bare skin. So make sure you use a thick moisturiser, sunscreen and even a primer before you step out during Diwali.
Exfoliate your skin
Pollution often means dead skin buildup along with dirt on your skin. This is when you need to depend on an effective scrub that buffs away all the grime from your skin. Our favourite skin care tip is to go for the St.Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub. Not only will this get rid of all the impurities but you should know that it contains apricot, which heals, soothes, protects and energises your skin while the walnut shells moisturise your skin, thanks to the Vitamin E and Vitamin B in it.
Pay attention to your skin care routine at night
No matter how much you try to save your skin, the air pollution is bound to affect your skin. An effective skin care tip would be to allow your skin to repair itself through the night while you’re asleep. So make sure you remove all your makeup, cleanse, tone and apply your night cream so your skin fights all the toxins through the night.
