I just love skin care! Just being able to relax and put on a healthy beautifying face mask is LIFE. I Love using #activatedcharcoal masks to pull dirt and toxins from my pores. It just leaves my face feeling like I ran it through a 12 step car wash 🤗 🌪💦🚙 #forreal My skin always looks brighter the next day, making my pores look so tiny 👌🏽 I used Charcoal Rescue Masque by @dermalogica #charcoal #detox #skincare #esthetics #masks #facemask #facialmask #skincareroutine #acne #oilyskin #largepores #yas

For oily skin

If all you can see is dull and oily skin staring back at you from the mirror then scan for additives like neem, lemon, lime, clove, cucumber, tea and strawberry while picking products for your skin.

Neem is ideal if your skin is acne-prone as it soothes irritation and inflammation, while also helping get rid of the bacteria causing pimples. Cucumber is also an extensively used ingredient owing to its skin lightening properties and being a great natural toner. Another magic ingredient that you must look out for is lemon juice.

Bought this cute little spray bottle. Now rose water is in it. #rosewater#spraybottle#rosewateehair#rosewaterskin#haircare#skincare#diy#beauty

For dry skin

Winters are dry skin’s worst enemy. However, a little care can go a long way in keeping the skin soft and supple. An array of organic skincare options are available in the market with ingredients like sea buckthorn, daisy flower extract, iris root extract, coconut, olive oil, oatmeal, honey and Shea butter that guarantees to weather proof your skin.

The best organic moisturiser you must get your hands on this winter is coconut. Its water content not only nourishes the deeper tissues but also acts as a natural healer, restoring the skin. Shea butter on the other hand has been used for the longest time to hydrate and regenerate skin.

Marshmallow root extract and iris florentina extract are some other great picks for extremely dry and damaged skin.
