Karishma Tanna Shares Why Sunscreen is the MVP of Her Skincare Routine

A casual scroll through actor Karishma Tanna's Insta feed will show you that she likes to rock the bare-faced, barely-there beauty look. The healthier your skin is, the less makeup you would need is the mantra the actor swears by.  

She says, "I have a simple, fuss-free skincare routine and I also keep trying out DIY masks that really help with my skin health. On top of that, luckily I am also blessed with good skin courtesy my mother who has amazing skin!"

Wake up your skin

"I begin my day with splashing some rose water on my face after waking up.It smells amazing and instantly rejuvenates me. Then, I proceed to do my workout."

Sunscreen FTW! 

"After all that I apply my sunscreen and vitamin C serum. I mix and apply both. The serum really helps with dark spots and pigmentation while sunscreen is super important even though many people think that it's applied only when you are out in the sun. You NEED sunscreen in all the seasons."

Gentle face treatments 

"My post shower routine includes adding Cetaphil face cream to the above steps. At night, I wash my face with Cetaphil face wash and scrub occassionally. Then, I go in with my Vitamin C serum followed by the cream and go to sleep. A good night's sleep is super-important for healthy, rested skin."

DIY Beauty

"Sometimes I use gel from my aloe vera plant on my face. I refrigerate it and use the cool gel on my face for 10-15 minutes before rinsing it off. My favourite DIY scrub is mixing coffee powder with sugar and olive oil on my whole body. But the best dadi ka nuska is using turmeric, yoghurt and lemon as a mask for clear skin."
