About Skincare Routines & Myth-Busting
Stop wasting money on viral trends that don't suit our climate. Real glowing skin starts with simple habits, like applying moisturizer on damp skin or balancing your gut with local foods like dahi and achar. I focus on what your skin needs today, not what a reel told you to buy.
Ditching the Myths
I see so many patients coming in because they tried an 'influencer-recommended' product that completely ruined their skin barrier. Here is the reality: your skin type at 35 is not what it was at 18. Oily skin still needs hydration, and no, mangoes are not the universal cause of your breakouts. We need to stop looking for magic wands and start looking at the basics.
My Approach to Routines
When you come to me, we don't start with a shopping list of expensive serums. We start with a conversation.
- The Root Cause: If you have hormonal acne, we look at your diet and PCOS triggers. If it's hair fall, we check your nutrition. Creams are secondary.
- Seasonal Reality: Your skin behaves differently in a Delhi winter than it does during the humid monsoon or a dry Holi. I help you adjust your routine based on the season, using what you already have at home.
- Consistency Over Complexity: A five-step routine is useless if you can't follow it. I help you strip back the excess and focus on the essentials: cleansing, protecting, and hydrating correctly.
Whether it's managing winter dryness, prepping for festival colors, or finding the right moisturizer for your specific skin type, my goal is to give you a routine that actually fits your life. No guilt, no fads, just results.
