Juggling between work, meeting deadlines and completing your household chores can sometimes be quite a handful to deal with. This obviously leads to a lot of mental and physical stress, which apart from your body, also has a lot of damaging effects on your skin. This is exactly what gave rise to one of the biggest skincare trends of 2021 – de-stressing skincare.

Stress can have a major impact on your skin, and cause problems like acne, inflammation and dullness. But before you stress out (and add more fuel to the fire) please hear us out. With the right kind of skincare products, you can easily calm, soothe and nourish your skin, thereby mitigating the effects of stress effectively.
