Women are known to be givers, always putting their wishes and needs behind everyone else’s. Undoubtedly, the modern woman wears many hats—that of a mother, wife, daughter, friend, sister, working woman, entrepreneur, and more. Attending to everyone’s needs at home, meeting work deadlines, and other demands often results in their health and beauty needs taking a backburner. This Women’s Day, take a moment to pledge to take better care of yourself and indulge in some fundamental self-care. To ease up your process, we bring the top women experts to share their skin and beauty mantras and ways to maintain a beautiful aesthetic.
DR JAMUNA PAI, Skin & Hair Expert —On Skincare for Women
MY BIGGEST INFLUENCER OR MENTOR
I didn’t particularly have a mentor, as the line of work I chose was something I put together but it would be quite unfair if I did not give my late husband, Dr Bhasker Pai the credit for his unending support and guidance throughout my journey. Even today I go by his ideals.
Q What is the best way to achieve youthful and glowing skin?
A No matter how busy you are, you should set aside 10 minutes for taking care of your skin. A sunscreen, moisturiser and a night repair cream have to be an integral part of your skincare regime on a daily basis and should find a way in your bag too besides your closet. One best beauty secret which is crucial for exquisite skincare is ‘exfoliation’. If you ask me to give three magic words that would unlock the gates to fantastic skincare, I’d say it’s only one magic word repeated three times: Exfoliate. Exfoliate. Exfoliate. It not only takes off the topmost layers of dead skin, but also gets rid of the build-up of dirt, sebum and other germs and bacteria trapped in the pores and helps reveal a glowing and radiant looking skin.
