Welcome back again all my beauties! New weekend, a new blog from my beauty diary and today's topic is how to take care of your face skin. We will be covering a very basic and simple skincare routine. I will be talking about the eyes, nose, lips, and skin. 

EYES

The most sensitive and delicate part of our face. So, here are some ways of taking take of your precious eyes- 

1. Cleaning your eyes - Before going to bed, always make sure to remove your eye makeup. Then after it wash your eyes with cold water by splashing it on eyes. Don't be so much hard, do it gently. Such cleaning will help your eyes to remove microparticles, dust, etc. stuck in due to pollution. 

 MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT USING TOO COLD WATER AND ALWAYS USE FILTER WATER TO DO SO.    

2. Apply eye cream - Apply eye cream twice a day and it is the compulsory step to do. I am not saying do it if you have dark circles and puffy eyes. Genuinely, speaking I have never come across any such product which can vanish my dark circles and puffiness like magic. I personally use eye cream and recommend it to others for moisturizing the area around eyes. The skin around your eyes is 10X thinner and sensitive than your normal facial skin. It's really important to keep the eye area moisturized and hydrating. 

3. Do some eye exercises - After completing steps 1 and 2, now it is time to relax your eye muscles and get into a deep sleep. The whole day, we are in office, college working continuously in laptops,phones which strain our eyes so badly. Like our body needs some muscle relaxing exercise similarly our eyes need it too. (DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT DOCTOR OR PROFESSIONAL. I AM GIVING YOU OUT MY RECOMMENDATION AFTER DOING IT OVER MYSELF. THESE EXERCISES HAVE BEEN DONE BY ME OVER LAST MANY YEARS.)     

Let's see some of the eyes muscle relaxing exercises-   

   

 a. Horizontal movement: Move your eyeballs towards the right side then towards the left side. Repeat, this process 5 times each side.

b. Vertical movement: After the horizontal movement wait for 30 seconds then go for the same process of moving eyeballs but now do it up and down. Repeat the process for 5 times each direction. 

c. Squeezing eyes:  Close your eyes quickly, squeeze them, and feel your facial muscles moving for three to five seconds. Then open your eyes slowly and repeat the process 6-7 times by keeping a break of 2-3 seconds between each squeeze. NEVER SQUEEZE YOUR EYES TIGHTLY, BE GENTLE AND SOFT WHILE DOING THIS EXERCISE.  All the above exercises will help you to release eye stress and relax eye muscles.

4. Use castor oil over your eyelashes - Castor oil is the best ingredient if you want long, bushy eyelashes. Apply it every night before sleep and after a week or so you will get the result. You can use your fingertips for application over eyelashes or can also use a mascara brush for the same. You can get a mascara brush with a small bottle online or also if you have empty mascara then wash the brush and bottle and reuse it for this purpose.

NOSE

The biggest issue on the nose is blackheads and whiteheads. I have used lots of products till now for getting rid of blackheads but got no permanent solution. But there some steps by which we can decrease them-

1. Cleanse your face twice a day - especially a nose region. As we know blackheads come on the skin because of the clogged pores so it is important to make it clean and prevent clogging the pores.

2. Use scrub - it can remove the blackheads and also open the clogged pores. 

3. blackheads removal charcoal sheets - This is actually an amazing product. Using it once a week can remove the blackheads perfectly and gives you a plane, smooth nose. But again it is not the permanent solution. 

LIPS

Who don't like pink, hydrated, soft and supple lips? Of course, everyone loves it, So here are some tips-  

1. Say "YES" to LIP BALM - Never leave your lips bare always put the layer of lip balm over it. It will help you to keep your lips soft and moisturized. 

2. Lip scrub - Its a new trend going in the market but believe me this trend is actually effective. Scrubbing your lips removes dead skin cells, prevents pigmentation, and increases the blood circulation. There are two ways of lip scrub either you buy a good affordable lip scrub product or make a DIY!!! 

 DIY LIP SCRUB -

take half spoon white sugar or brown sugar. Add 2-3 drops of lemon and 1/4th spoon honey. Also add 4-5 drops of coconut oil and mix it well. Then apply on lips and start massaging with your fingertips or by an old toothbrush in a circular manner. Do this process for 1-2 minutes. Use a tissue paper to remove the scrub from your lips. tadaaaa!!! and the Magic happened!!!

Try it and comment down the result in the comment section you got after using this scrub.      

 

3. Drink an appropriate amount of water - You apply thousands of products but if you are not taking a good amount of water then there will be no effect. It is very important to keep your lips hydrated if you do not want chapped lips. So, drink around 8-9 glass of water daily. 

FACE SKIN

Now comes to the most important area, Face skin. There are many problems that occur in almost every girl's skin i.e. acne, blemishes, pigmentation, dry and flaky skin, dullness and the list is more to go long. But, taking proper care can help you to get the dream skin. Basically, the skin routine is divided into PM and AM ( I will be describing this topic in the upcoming blog). Here I am just taking the normal HEAD points, "NOT" explaining the proper routine.

1. Eat healthy food - Its really important to take necessary nutrients i.e. proteins, vitamins, fibers, etc. So always take nutrients rich food. Try to avoid fast food as much as you can, especially people with acne-prone skin.

2. More and more water - Water can keep your skin hydrated and also helps to remove toxins from your body. You can win 80% of the skincare game with just 8-9 glasses of water every day. 

3. Workout - Laziness in quarantine can easily make you leave workout. But, don't skip workout as it will keep your body fit, and also the sweating removes the toxic substances from the upper layer of skin giving you good glowy skin. 

So, yeah its a wrap up my gals! Thanks for reading and I hope this could help you out.
