Beauty Secrets You Should Know In Your Twenties

Being in your twenties can be critical as well as a fun period of your life.  Between bills, early morning wake ups, and tighter schedules it can be easy to lose sight of the younger, brighter and peppy ‘YOU’. In your twenties, your skin enters its post acne and pre wrinkles phase, and your skin might look great right now, but this period can determine what will you look like in your post 20s period. Here’s a complete list of some beauty secrets every girl should know in her 20s:

Sunscreens:

To keep common skin ageing problems like wrinkles and damaged skin at bay, sunscreen is a must. Sunscreen not only protects skin from sun’s harmful rays, it also creates a shield on your skin to protect it against dust and pollution. You can spend so much money on beauty products, but it doesn’t matter the slightest bit of difference whether you use an Rs20 moisturizer or an Rs200 moisturizer. No, matter how much you invest on your sunscreen if you don’t invest in the right sunscreen for your skin type you might just end up damaging your skin further. Skin in 20s is fresh and the sebum glands are over active, but running away from sunscreens does no good! Choose a water based sunscreen if your sebum glands are over active. Neutrogena’s Ultra-Light sheer sunscreen with Spf 50 can be your savior from sun and over active sebum glands. 

Cleansing:

The 3 most important steps for clearer skin are Cleansing, Toning and moisturizing. The absolutely important skin care regime one should follow in their 20s or 30s. Cleansing is the first and foremost step to beautiful radiant skin. Clean your face with a balancing facewash which unclogs the pores and removes all the impurities like Ponds Pure White Deep Cleansing Facial Foam. The carbon elements in the face wash remove excess oil making your skin shine free. 

Toning:

Toning is the second step of an essential beauty regime in your 20s. Toners help remove stubborn impurities from face which cannot be removed by facial cleansers.  A good toner not only removes the impurities it also moisturizes your skin. Nivea Visage Refreshing Toner is ideal for all skin types and can be used every night after washing your face and before applying your night cream.

Moisturizing:

Third most important step to a good skin care regime is moisturizing.  Skin needs hydration throughout the year. Even in summer skin needs hydration and shying away from moisturizing does no good to your sensitive facial skin.  Hydrating skin reduces the chances of wrinkles and other age related issues like crow’s feet. A good moisturizer hydrates the skin while protecting it against daily exposure to pollution and dust. You can apply a thin layer of Ponds White Beauty Blemish Balm Fairness Cream before stepping out. It will save your time as it acts as a moisturizer and a foundation. So sleep through your extra 5minutes of snooze time!

While skin care and hair care products help maintain your outer self, exercising and eating right also play a vital role in your twenties. What you eat now determines the beauty of your hair, skin and body in future. Include regular exercise in your daily routine because it’s as important as your diet plans.
