“I drink minimum 3-4lts of water a day, oil my skin every night and make sure I get at least 7 hours of sleep, that’s the little that I do for healthy skin.On a daily basis, coconut oil works just fine, any brand.. And once a week I use gingerly/ sesame oil, because if I use it every day I catch a cold.â€

“When it comes to skin care I mainly go natural. I just take anything lying around the kitchen (fruits, milk, rose water) mix it into little pastes and apply it. I usually make variations based on availability. Since I have oily skin, my most important daily ritual is to splash my face with plain water multiple times through the day.â€
