I have wholeheartedly accepted Alia Bhatt to be my skincare guru. The actress knows how to keep her skin healthy and clear and she gives bomb advice on the same.
I was especially impressed and mind blown after the Gangubai Kathiawadi star shared one important skincare tip that made me wonder why I didn’t think of earlier. The tip is with regards to the areas other than the face to which you need to apply your skincare products, and no, it’s not just your neck.
What Is Alia Bhatt’s Best Skincare Tip?
Alia Bhatt follows a multi-step face skincare routine which typically involves a gentle cleanser, face toning mist, serum, eye cream, moisturiser, and sunscreen. But her most important tip is that while all these products go on her face, she recommends applying them elsewhere too.
“I also like to moisturise my ears,” she said while shooting a skincare tutorial with her sister Shaheen Bhatt. In another video, Alia also said, “Whatever you put on your face, you can put on your neck, and on your hands…quick tip.” She went on to explain that applying products on these areas as well will prevent fine lines and wrinkles from appearing.
Which Areas To Apply Facial Skincare Products & Why
Applying your facial skincare products to the areas Alia mentioned other than your face should not be avoided and here’s why.
Neck
The neck is usually exposed to a lot of damage even if you are sitting indoors and even during the nighttime. Since we use our phones and laptops all the time, the skin on our neck is also exposed to blue light damage and therefore it also needs to be taken care of with serums and moisturisers.
Use a multitasking moisturiser on your neck like the Skinvest CEO 3 In 1 (Serum + Toner + Moisturiser).
Ears
Alia said she likes to moisturise her ears. I also noticed that she even applied sunscreen to her ears which is another important thing as the ears can undergo sun damage and ageing too.
The Hollistia Hydra Day Shield SPF 50+ is super easy to blend and apply to the face, ears, and neck.
Hands
Alia said that she applies whatever products she uses on her face on her hands too and its actually solid advice. Your hands can give away your age, if you don’t take care of them. Think about it: you spend so much effort in preventing fine lines from your face but your hands have clear signs of ageing. That won’t do.
Your regular hand cream doesn’t do more than just keep the cuticles moisturised, use the MyGlamm 1% Retinol Age-Defying Serum followed by a hand cream get rid of wrinkles. It works like magic.
Don’t ignore Alia Bhatt’s advice. Start applying your skincare products on your hands, neck, and ears while you apply them on your face.
