My Daily Skincare Routine

My skincare routine is quite simple – cleanser, toner, moisturizer.



I use @cleanandclear Foaming Facewash to wash my face. I have tried many different brands but this gives me the least breakouts, so I use this for many years.

⭐I make the toner on my own. I use a spray bottle which I got from @minisoindia , you can find them in @healthandglow and @newu_dabur stores as well. Fill it up with purified water and add around 20 drops of tea tree oil to it. I have been using the tea tree oil @aroma_treasures for years now, bought it many times. Shake it well and the toner is ready. I spray it all over my face, pat it and let the skin dry.

I have recently added the @mcaffeineofficial Face Oil with 14 oils to my skincare routine. It moisturises and nourishes the skin.

Then I apply the @thebodyshopindia Vitamin E Moisture Cream and massage it well with my hands.

For eyes, I apply the @aromamagicindia Under Eye Cream all around my eyes, upper lid, under eye, and both corners and massage it well.

Finally, I use my @palmers Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E Dark Chocolate Lip balm. Trust me guys this one is the best. One tube has lasted for so long, I have been using it for years.

⭐Keep in mind to not switch your skincare products too often. It also saves you time, once you find a product that suits your skin, stick to it. We want to try everything available in the market, but it can be harsh on the skin.

This has been my skincare routine for the last 1.5 years, as you all know I used to have no time for myself. I used nothing extra, now I have time to think of applying face packs and face masks occasionally. & I never take facials or any other saloon treatments for my face, I just don’t like it.

Always take care of your hydration and nutrition, for a natural glow. I am writing this after cribbing about not having time, because my hydration and nutrition were also affected in the last 2 years.

Last but not least, have strong boundaries, don’t let anyone drain your energy. Stay away from drama, don’t earn stress and bad karma. This is the only anti-ageing advice I follow. Again, I could not protect my energy in the last 2 years but now I can.

What I eat in a day (5) and McCaffeine Sale

#foodfindsedition #skincareshopping

I often order Veg Alfredo Pasta from @trufflesbangaloreofficial . It’s the best pasta with a creamy sauce and a good amount of fresh veggies.

⭐ @wowmomos serve the best thukpa I have tried in Bangalore till now. It’s a simple recipe with perfectly cooked noodles, fresh veggies, and a very simple but authentic taste. These soupy noodles help so much when you have a cold. Their pan-fried Darjeeling momos in tomato garlic sauce are delicious.

After their multigrain khichdi, I tried Quinoa khichdi from @the_eatfit , this one is also a nice healthy food option.

@box8_official has some amazing North Indian meal combos. Their Banarasi Dum Aloo thali has the perfect quantity for one person, everything tastes good, crispy triangle Parathas, and they also give salad with mint & curd chutney 😋. The food is less oily and spicy. The only thing was, that Dum Aloo had unpeeled potatoes, otherwise, everything was healthy and hygienic.

I posted less today because I needed a break, I got bored of the routine and giving time to everyone except myself, and my health has also been low since yesterday. I also did some shopping for self-care, I ordered from @mcaffeineofficial , they have a buy 3 at 899 sale going on.

I have been regularly using their Coffee body wash and coffee scrub which I needed to refill and I got a face oil/serum for free.⭐I love to use different fragrances in body wash, it takes away the laziness when it comes to taking a bath 😂.

If you also want to buy something, these are the products I like –
🍫Coffee body wash with vitamin E,
🍫Coffee face oil for Dewy glow with 14 oils,
🍫Coffee body scrub for tan-free and smooth skin, I mix it with honey and use it as a face scrub, it’s a good natural exfoliator.

Crystal Shopping

My new crystals are here. ✨

Thank you @thecrystalstore_healingvortex . This was my second purchase from this page, always happy with the purchase. You just have to DM them with the list of crystals you want to buy, Richa will show you 2-3 options for each crystal so that you pick the one you like intuitively. She always sends the same crystals you chose, all the crystals are clear and of good quality. I am always happy with the purchase and all the crystals are up to my expectation.

I bought a selenite wand, a yellow calcite, a red carnelian, tiger’s eye and green aventurine. I keep crystals in every colour because their colours define their propertie. I use Selenite to cleanse and charge the rest of my crystals. This time I bought only the crystals which I needed because I am not into hoarding.

What I eat in a day – Part 4

⭐This time I made the salad with a different combination of vegetables. Cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell peppers, apple for sweetness, kale and pak choi for the greens. I used the same dressing made of lemon juice and olive oil.


Kale, pak choi or any other leafy greens are good for immunity. The taste was also good.

I used fresh vegetables from @bigbasketcom . They also give a combo of a few vegetables to be used for salad, I ordered a combo of cherry tomatoes, baby cucumbers and bell peppers.

⭐This week I tried Miso soup for the first time, I ordered it from @auntie.fungs from @swiggyindia . The taste of Miso was warm and hearty as everyone says, but I did feel like adding Maggi masala to it. 😅 They use whole wheat noodles, tofu and fresh vegetables, so it was overall a healthy meal.

I also found the multi-grain khichdi from @the_eatfit to be really healthy. It had rice, bajra, black chana, lentils, cooked in ghee and they also served it with gudh (jaggery). The quantity was a bit less for one person, compared to other restaurants. You should order one more dish if you are really hungry, but it was worth the price.

⭐I also use almond milk from @sogoodindia and soya milk from SoFit these days, as I need more nutrition after being burnt out for so long. Almond milk can be really heavy so I usually mix with it cow milk. Soya milk is not that heavy, go for the unsweetened one or vanilla if you need it to be sweet.

Lettuce Salad Recipe

⭐Today I made this lettuce salad by myself at home. It cost me one-third price compared to what I ordered online. I have fresh vegetables that I can use for 3 days, I get to eat this salad once every day, that too in double quantity compared to restaurants. I don’t mind eating salad for 3 days in a row, because this will help me lose so much weight.

New Year Vision Board

The new year is a good time to make a new vision board because you feel the change already in the environment. This is more than just making New Year resolutions, goal setting or self-analysis. You have to define how you want your year to be and also be ready to take action to achieve those goals. The law of attraction can’t work if you don’t heal yourself and don’t take action to make changes in your life. If you really want to change your life, there’s no room for being wishy-washy, it takes willpower and determination to manifest the life you want.
