3-day Skincare Ritual to Prepare for Diwali 2023
Gear up to shine bright by following this skincare for Diwali:
Day 1
- AM Routine
Purify Your Body
Detox Water: To dazzle in Diwali 2023, you must prepare your skin both externally and internally. Hence, start every day of your 3-day routine with homemade morning detox water for glowing skin. Detox water purifies blood, improves your skin, and plays a crucial role in weight management. To prepare this holy juice, take hot water and add honey (1 tbsp), turmeric stick, and lemon juice (1/2) and drink. For added benefit, you can mix cinnamon powder (a pinch) and ginger.
Cleanse Your Skin
Deep Cleanse: On the first day of your Diwali skincare routine, focus on deep cleansing. Get rid of dead skin cells, dust, dirt, and impurities by deeply cleansing your face by choosing a facewash according to your skin type. For instance, if you have oily skin, you can opt for a duo-action facewash or else you can go for a vitamin C-infused brightening face wash for supremely beaming skin.
Remove Blackheads and Thoroughly Exfoliate: This Diwali 2023, take an oath of getting rid of blackheads. You can efficiently deal with blackheads using charcoal-based products or by preparing a simple homemade mixture of coconut oil and sugar to remove little black specs. Once done, you can focus on exfoliating your skin. Alternatively, you can use a charcoal serum sheet mask to deeply purify skin, remove blemishes, and tighten your pores.
Moisturise: After a deep exfoliation, your skin is ready to absorb moisture and hydration. Use a moisturiser as per your skin preference and complete your daytime Diwali skincare routine. Vitamin C moisturisers and face serums are notable for delivering bright and moisturised skin in no time. For best results, choose brightening vitamin C UV serum cream or brightening vitamin C serum gel for AM moisturisation and apply vitamin C face serum for dark spots’ reduction and glowing complexion.
- PM Routine
Night-time Care: Getting at least 8-9 hours sleep is essential to make your skin look healthy and reduce dark circles under the eyes. Before heading towards the bed, pamper your skin with a night cream. If you have tanned skin or dark spots, you can opt for vitamin C night cream that helps address these issues from the first application.
Day 2
Polishing and Brightening
- AM Routine
Cleanse: No matter what products you are applying, make sure your face is cleansed. Therefore, before moving to the polishing and brightening part, cleanse your face with a face wash.
Face Pack: Bring out supreme glow this Diwali 2023 with the help of a face pack. You can prepare a DIY turmeric face pack easily by mixing Turmeric powder (3/5th) and Fuller’s Earth, or Gram Flour, or Sandalwood (1/5th), and Yogurt (1/5th). Apply it on your face to reveal glowing skin.
- PM Routine
Facial: Take your 2nd day Diwali skincare ritual to the next level by doing a perfect at-home facial. Take 10 minutes time out of your busy schedule and try a tomato facial (ingredients needed: ½ a tomato, honey, coffee, castor/granulated sugar). This facial helps to unveil glowing skin in just 10 minutes.
Sheet Mask: Complete your day-2 PM Diwali skincare routine with a sheet mask or a face serum and jump into bed. You can go for a skin brightening sakura-infused sheet mask for best results. Alternatively, you can choose a vitamin C serum sheet mask to get bright, hydrated, and energized skin with dewy glow in just 15 minutes.
Day 3
The Final Touch-up

Cleanse+ Tone+ Moisturise: Day 3 of the quick Diwali skincare ritual is quite simple. Use toner on the last day along with cleanser and moisturiser. Toners effectively remove the last traces of dirt and impurities clogged in your pores. Next, move to your PM routine.
