dr Ayurveda expert Khushbu Chadha of AIMIL AYOUTHVEDA says: “Regardless of skin type, facial cleansing, toning and moisturizing should be the most important steps in any skincare routine. For oily skin, experts always recommend using a cleansing gel or foam that removes impurities and helps control excess sebum, followed by a toner that tightens pores. Finally, oily skin should rely solely on an oil-controlling cream to stay hydrated throughout the day.

For those with dry skin: "A cream-based cleanser with moisturizing ingredients like coconut water is essential for dry skin. Lightweight toners like rosewater soothe dry skin. Experts highly recommend washing your face with Kunkumadi Real Face Serum at night. Use dryness massage oil for the ultimate bridal glow."
