3-day Skincare Ritual to Prepare for Diwali 2022
Day 1 (Cleansing)
- AM Routine
Purify Your Body
Detox Water: To dazzle in diwali 2022, you must prepare your skin both externally and internally. Hence, start every day of your 3-day routine with homemade detox water. Detox water purifies blood, improves skin and plays a crucial role in weight management. To prepare this holy juice, take hot water and add honey (1 tbsp), cinnamon (a pinch), lemon, and ginger, and drink.
Cleanse Your Skin
Deep Cleanse: On the first day of 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 a brightening face wash that contains vitamin C. You can also make a DIY facewash by mixing ingredients such as honey + lemon juice (for oily skin), curd + honey (for dry skin), and chickpea powder+ turmeric powder + milk (combination skin) and expedite the cleansing process.
Remove Blackheads and Thoroughly Exfoliate: Getting rid of blackheads is a mandate to achieve a flawless makeup look. Efficiently deal with blackheads with charcoal-based products or prepare a simple homemade mixture of coconut oil and sugar to remove little black specs. Once done, you can focus on the exfoliation of your skin. Prepare a mask by mixing turmeric powder, Multani mitti (Fuller’s Earth), neem powder, and coconut oil and apply it to your face. If you get some time, you can indulge in a steam session before applying the mask. You can alternatively use a charcoal black rice face mask to deeply purifies skin and adds glow to it.
Moisturize: After a deep exfoliation, your skin is ready to absorb moisture and hydration. Use a moisturizer as per your skin preference and complete your daytime diwali skincare routine.
- PM Routine
Nighttime Care: Getting at least 8-9 hours sleep is essential to make skin look healthy and reduce dark circles under the eyes and baggy 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 creams that help address these issues from the first application.
Day 2 (Polishing and Brightening)

Cleanse: No matter what product 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 2022 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.
