Hey! I am Shruthi, an oily acne-prone skin girlie. Taking care of myself – Be it Skincare or Haircare – feels like a therapy to me.
I am that same girl whose used Soap and Body lotion on her face, used Coconut oil and Vitamin E capsules all over my face, made that natural moisturizer by mixing Aloe vera gel; Vitamin E capsules and rose water, used expired lip balms, powders and lipsticks (Oops! ) – Let’s be real, we’ve all been there!
I am a completely different person now when it comes to skincare and haircare. Let’s dive a little into my skincare journey. I wouldn’t get acne until I was 18. Slowly, I started developing acne breakouts. I was worried, and so I started trying:
- Natural remedies like Gram flour, Honey, turmeric, Rice flour, Banana and orange peel, and so the list goes on. They helped to some extent.
- Using Aloe vera gel on dry skin did more harm than good.
- Using products that didn’t suit my skin type.
Seeing the aftereffects on my skin made me realise that I am wrong and that thorough knowledge and research are important before using anything. In the process, I became truly passionate about skin care and hair care and saw real progress. This was the beginning of my Skin and Hair care journey. In this blog, I will be sharing my knowledge about skin care and hair care.
Disclaimer: I have oily acne-prone skin. So, most of my insights will be on this particular skin type and also keep in mind that what suits me might not suit you. So, I would suggest you do thorough research and do a patch test before using anything new!
I am excited to share and learn together on this journey. Let’s glow the right way! ✨
