Deepika Padukone loves to experiment with her style. But more often than not, she prefers to complete her look with a basic makeup, letting her glowing skin take center stage. So it's no surprise that she's invested heavily in her skincare routine , which she recently revealed is minimal.
In a charming but short Q&A session on Instagram Stories, the Pathan actor shared that his mother , Ujjwala Padukone, has been "taught" him to keep his skincare very simple. I wait
Responding to a user who was "so eager to learn the secret to your glowing skin," Deepika Padukone shared, "My secret was very simple. I stuck to the basics. This is the mantra my mom taught me. She Said: 'Don't go overboard with your skin. Keep it simple, less is more. So when my mom used to tell me that as a kid, it stuck with you. So I'm still on track, on my skincare routine .
Talking about the things she follows religiously, Deepika says, "I focus on cleansing my skin, keeping my skin hydrated, and using sunscreen to protect me from the sun. That's all I do."
Deepika, who recently entered the beauty and skincare industry with her brand 82°E, previously showed off her makeup in the film Piku . In a video interview with Allure , Deepika said, "I think I'm playing a character who is like me in real life, maybe Piku ," adding that her performance is "very, very natural."
"You can literally see the skin in the film," the 37-year-old said, adding that she reportedly sat in the makeup chair for "more than five or 10 minutes with her hair and makeup on."
He added, “I don't feel the layers and actually Piku is a movie, but I feel it in a lot of my movies. You know, we don't do makeup unless the character needs to."
Dr. Akriti Gupta, a cosmetic dermatologist at the Jeevisha Clinic in New Delhi, previously told this portal that a "complete skincare regimen" should include four steps: cleansing, exfoliation, hydration and sunscreen . "Improving your skincare routine is super important. Plus, each of these ingredients needs to be tailored to your skin type," she says.
However, a good skincare routine needs to be complemented by an active lifestyle and a healthy diet. “Physical activity plays a big role in skin health and appearance,” says Dr. Vandana Punjabi, Consultant Dermatologist and Trichologist, who practices at Khar and Nanavati Max Superspecialty Hospital, adding, “Physical activity improves blood flow to cells, reduces stress , improves chronic disease, conditions skin, prevents signs of aging and promotes health."
