Calming Skincare Routines to Relax, Unwind, and Destress

As we near the end of a very eventful year, let us take some time out for ourselves to rejuvenate and relax not just our mind but also our body, and skin in particular.

With an increase in pollution levels and unearthly work hours, not to mention the stress of daily life, our skin often takes a toll, more than it is meant to. The skin is also the largest organ, and it serves as a barrier against several pathogens. Keeping our skin protected, hydrated and moisturized is vital.

Apart from staying hydrated, consuming a balanced diet, and getting enough sleep, we must also follow disciplined skincare practices for a youthful, glowing, flawless skin, and where possible, use the best moisturizer for dry skin.

We have listed for you a night-time skincare routine so as you rest, so can your skin.

Remove that makeup

One skincare blunder that most people commit is not getting rid of the makeup on their skin. This often leads to clogged pores and thereby rashes, acne, and more. Take your time to get all of it off carefully. Make sure you use a good quality makeup remover. Baby oil or olive oil also get the job done well.

Clean the dirt and oil off

Once the makeup is out, wash off the dirt and oil that has been accumulating on your face
all day.
Pro-tip: Our Cucumber Mint Upvan Facial Cleanser has the goodness of aloe vera and cooling extracts of cucumber for that extra relaxation.
Once the residue is out, your skin will be ready to reap the benefits of your moisturizer.

Which brings us to-

Using the best night cream

We bring to you our anti-aging cream– the Urban Rani Youth Preserve, the best wrinkle cream created after years of research.

Best face moisturizer for dry skin, it is enriched with the rarest and most potent skin ingredients such as Okra, Gotu kola, Hyaluronic acid, and more. It is gentle on the skin and works wonders overnight as a face cream for dry skin, so you wake up with fresh, rejuvenated, wrinkle-free, and supple skin.

This face cream for women is completely absorbed and leaves behind the mildest of fragrances to facilitate a good night’s sleep.
Evenly use the night cream all over your face and neck, avoiding the eyes. Work in an upward circular motion for cheeks and outward motion for the neck. This tones your skin for a firmer look. For extra relaxation, massage your temples in a circular motion.

Plugin your earphones and play some calming music

A healthy mind is a healthy body, said the wise. The state of mind often reflects on the body and so on the skin.

Therefore, while following a disciplined skin care routine is essential, it is also very important that we release the stress and tensions of the day before we hit the bed.

Brew yourself a nice cup of hot, chamomile tea and take 15 minutes off for yourself alone as you tune into some calm, soft music. Camomile tea helps in easing anxiety and curing digestive issues. A compound called apigenin in it is known for its relaxative properties and
for inducing a good night’s sleep.
So, close your eyes and let yourself drift away even as your skin takes a healing breather for the day.
