The season of lights, sweets, and celebrations has officially arrived! Diwali brings with it the warmth of family gatherings, the joy of rituals, and the sparkle of festive parties. While the glow on your face may naturally come from all the happiness around, keeping that glow intact throughout the season takes a little extra effort.
Here are a few pre- & post-tips shared by Dr Mili Sinha, Aesthetic Physician at La Clinique and expert at Oteria, to achieve the ultimate Diwali glow.
1) Cleanse and Exfoliate: Start your Diwali prep by cleansing your skin deeply, as it will remove all the dirt and impurities from the skin. Gently scrub your skin twice a week to clear away dirt and dead cells, so it looks clean, fresh, and glowing.
2) Hydrate and Protect: Dr Mili Sinha, Aesthetic Physician at La Clinique and expert at Oteria, shares, “Apply a hydrating serum rich in hyaluronic acid or niacinamide, followed by a lightweight moisturiser and sunscreen to shield your skin from pollution and blue light.”
3) Mask For Instant Glow: Use a brightening face mask that contains vitamin C, turmeric or sandalwood to brighten up your complexion before all the festive fun. This adds a natural glow and preps your skin for makeup.

1) Two-Step Cleansing for Fresh Skin: “After heavy makeup and being exposed to pollution, double cleanse your skin with an oil-based and foam-based cleanser. This will help in removing residue and preventing breakouts,” says Dr Mili Sinha.
2) Calm and Restore: Refresh your skin with rose water or an alcohol-free toner. It will soothe your skin
3) Repair and Replenish: Finally, apply a night serum containing polypeptides and hyaluronic acid to recharge and repair your skin. Follow it up with a nourishing night cream to support overnight skin repair. This will help to wake up with soft, glowing, and refreshed skin.
