skincare :  With the start of India’s festive season, there is an abundance of customs, cuisine, family get-togethers, and other activities.

Many people have a tendency to intensify their skincare regimens during the holidays, which ultimately does more harm than good. However, with the proper skincare regimen during the holidays, these can be prevented. Continue reading to learn simple skincare tips that will help maintain healthy skin during the holiday season from Dr. Ridhima Arora, MBBS, MD (Dermatology & VD), Radix Healthcare, and Jenovia (Daun Jung), Korean cosmetologist and COO & Co-Founder of KorinMi.

Principles of Korean skincare for Indian skin

Jenovia claims that she has been modifying Korean skincare techniques to accommodate Indian skin types. K-beauty is sometimes misinterpreted as a ten-step procedure. Actually, it comes down to layering carefully and preserving the skin barrier,” she says. However, too many products can become overwhelming when those principles are directly applied in India, where the climate, pollution, and melanin-rich skin present unique challenges. Smart simplicity is what we require: the proper fundamentals carried out regularly.

In agreement, Dr. Arora continues, “Many individuals believe that adding’more’—more steps, more products, more actives—is the answer. At the same time, though, that exacerbates the situation and weakens the skin barrier. Your skin doesn’t require ten actions, in actuality. It must be consistent.

Skincare routine for the festive season

It boils down to simple, doable actions that you can take even on your busiest days, according to both experts.

Daily schedule for the morning

Five steps are suggested by Jenovia :

• A mild cleanser that doesn’t foam and doesn’t contain surfactants to remove perspiration and oil.
• The Slow Aging Ampoule Toner is a hydrating mist spray.
• Amino acids and botanicals abound in this moisturizing essence.
• a moisturizer contains ceramides or panthenol that targets the barrier.
• In India, a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 50 and PA+++ is mandatory.

Dr. Ridhima reduces it even more to the following four necessities:

• Serum for cleaners and antioxidants
• The moisturizer and sunscreen

Night Skincare routine

According to Jenovia:

• The same mild cleanser, along with a makeup remover if necessary
• A slow-aging mist spray or ampoule toner.
• A hydrating essence.
• A barrier repair lotion that contains fatty acids, ceramides, and soothing components including centella.
