Janhvi Kapoor revealed one of her most important skincare steps to get camera-ready and I’m all for it. The Mili star stated in an interview that her skin gets oily on set due to so much makeup and lighting involved in the process.
For countering these skin woes, Janhvi follows a simple morning skincare routine and it involves a multi-tasking serum that is the answer to all her on-set skin concerns and more. Read on to know more about her skincare routine and go-to face serum.
What Is Janhvi’s Pre-Shoot AM Skincare Routine?
The star says she keeps it simple by splashing cold water on her face and then using a mild cleanser. After cleansing, she uses a niacinamide face serum and follows it up with a lightweight moisturiser.
Cleansing before applying any skincare products is super important. I’m currently loving the PureSense Natural Papaya Face Wash as a first step before I use the Janhvi-approved serum.
Janhvi’s Favourite Face Serum
Since she tends to sweat a lot on set because her skin is layered with makeup and even the lights on the set are very damaging, a niacinamide face serum comes to her rescue. Janhvi loves the face serum because it is a versatile and lightweight product that helps her control excess oil production and evens out her skin tone
The exact niacinamide face serum that Janhvi uses is the Nykaa SKINRX 10% Niacinamide Face Serum.
Benefits Of Niacinamide Serum That Janhvi Loves
Oil Control
The main reason why Janhvi loves niacinamide face serum is that it helps control oiliness caused by excess heat from halogen lights on set. Niacinamide serums regulate oil production and are great for summers.
While Janhvi loves the Nykaa serum, my go-to is the MyGlamm 10% Niacinamide Clarifying Serum Enriched With Moringa & Tiger Grass.
Soothing
When Janhvi said niacinamide serum is versatile, it’s because it can soothe skin inflammation as well. I personally love using the serum when my skin has gotten irritated, excessively dry, or has breakouts.
Before applying niacinamide serum, I love spritzing the Mantra Herbal Indian Gulab Arka – Indian Rose Water as it also helps in countering sensitivity and inflammation.
Repairing
Niacinamide face serums have anti-ageing properties and help combat the damage caused by harsh light settings and sun damage. Janhvi is always shooting and whether she’s in the studio or outdoors, this serum helps her skin stay healthy and glowing.
I also believe that using a niacinamide serum just isn’t enough, so I use a moisturiser and the POPxo H2O Booster Sunscreen Gel SPF 30 PA+++ to further fight off damage.
Clarifying
Not only can niacinamide control sebum and soothe inflammation, but it also treats acne and reduces the appearance of enlarged pores. It helps keep Janhvi’s skin clear even though she has to wear makeup for extensive hours on set which could otherwise lead to breakouts.
Not sure if Janhvi approves, but after applying the niacinamide serum, I like to use the Skinvest CEO 3 in 1 (serum + toner + moisturiser) to keep my skin clear and protected.
Evens Out Skin Tone
With all of the above benefits combined, Janhvi simply loves the fact that niacinamide helps keep her skin even toned. This is why Janhvi feels so confident in her own skin.
While Janhvi’s skin may only need niacinamide, mine needs an additional boost for even-toned skin. I like adding the St. Botanica Goji Berry Clay Mask With Vitamin C, For Glowing Skin to my skincare routine at least once a week.
Do your skin a favour and add a niacinamide face serum to your skincare routine like Janhvi Kapoor.
