Everyone follows a routine when it comes to their skin. The only difference is the number of steps you take in that routine. Focusing on the basics, it’s necessary to clean your face, moisturise it and then protect it from sun and pollution damage.
Facewash
If you’re looking for a premium brand face wash for yourself or for gifting, then you can certainly try Purifying Palmorasa face wash and Rejuvenating Frankincense Face wash by Neal’s Yard Remedies. The Palmorasa face wash is priced at Rs 1,657, while the Frankincensa face wash is available for Rs 2,390.
Moisturiser
For keeping your skin moisturised and soothing, try Bioderma’s Sensibio Defensive Rich which is advanced technology that will strengthen both, sensitive and sensitised skin.
