Wait, Shraddha Kapoor Doesn’t Have A Skincare Routine?

Wait, Shraddha Kapoor Doesn’t Have A Skincare Routine?

Most of Shraddha Kapoor’s looks exude ‘girl-next-door’. The actress has always been about embracing her natural beauty and it’s this minimalist approach that’s kept her skin looking as young as it looks even today.

In today’s world of multi-step skincare routines that most celebrities swear by, I assumed Shraddha would also have a long list of products she can’t do without. Turns out I was wrong!

When Shraddha Says ‘I Woke Up Like This’, She Means It!

In a recent interview with Femina India, the Stree 2 actress shed light on how her skin looks as good as it does. While it may be unbelievable to most, the 37-year-old star doesn’t follow a set routine! “I have no skincare routine, I’ll be very honest”, she said. But instantly followed it up with “But I moisturise and I use face wash.”

Turns out, there’s research backing this minimalist, less-is-more approach, also known as ‘skin minimalism’.

Firstly, it’s easier to be consistent. Lesser the steps, the less time taken to care for the skin. You won’t think of it as a task if you have only 2-3 steps as compared to the tiresome 10-step routine made infamous by the Koreans 👀.

Too many products on the skin are often counteractive. It leads to buildup, clogged pores, and breakouts. Overloading your skin with different steps and products can also lead to a compromised skin barrier.

And finally, lesser steps means it’s also lighter on the pocket! Streamlining your routine down to the basics will also mean you won’t end up spending money on serums, and creams you don’t really need.

Skincare Products You Don’t Need

Separate moisturisers for day and night. You only really need one effective moisturiser for your entire face and neck area. (Unless you have oily skin and require something lighter during the day.)

Individual serums. Today, most serums come with more than one ingredient. You don’t need a separate bottle of hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, kojic acid, etc. Multiple brands have different combinations and permutations, you can find one that has all the ingredients you really need.

Neck creams and eye creams are nothing but thicker moisturisers.

The Essentials You Actually Need

A good face wash that cleanses the skin without stripping it off its moisture. The Simple Kind To Skin Refreshing Facial Wash is one such product that does the trick.

Shraddha’s MUA has been known to use the Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Cream to ensure smooth and hydrated skin.

Sun protection is a non-negotiable. The POPxo Glow Goals Illuminating Sunscreen SPF 30 PA+++ offers blue light protection, is non-sticky and leaves no white cast and leaves the skin glowing.

In a world where skincare has been made unnecessarily complicated with new trends emerging everyday, Shraddha’s focus on minimalism is commendable. And her skin is proof that it works!
