Anti-Pollution Skincare Routine for Working Women

Is dull skin the reason behind your frown lines? Well, if you are a working woman you can blame it on the pollution. All the dust and dirt are bound to leave a tiring effect on the skin, especially when there is little to no time for tackling it. There are five easy steps to save your skin from the daily effects of pollution.

Follow this anti-pollution skincare routine for better, healthier skin:

1. Pamper your skin with deep cleansing

The key to any good skincare routine is to engage in a pampering deep cleansing session. It helps to remove the excess dirt and dust from the skin while removing the impurities from deep within. Removal of residual impurities helps the skin to rejuvenate naturally. A deep cleansing session requires a good face wash followed by a gentle scrubbing session.

You can opt for the Mcaffeine Deep Pore Cleansing Regime kit. A popular choice among beauty bloggers, this kit comes with a Naked and Raw Coffee Facewash, Coffee Face Scrub, Coffee Face Mask. Coffee is especially effective for cleansing pores, reducing inflammation and for its calming effect on the skin.

2. Serum for clear skin

It’s best to not underestimate the humble serum when it comes to protecting your skin from the sun. Face serums are lightweight moisturizers that keep your skin glowing by nourishing them with the required ingredients. You can even use a face serum as a base for your makeup. These are usually non-sticky and lightweight and readily get absorbed into the skin.

The Mamaearth Skin Plump Serum For Face Glow, with Hyaluronic Acid & Rosehip Oil for Ageless Skin, works wonders on tired and dull skin. Rosehip oil works well on wrinkles and fine lines while also effectively reducing dark spots.

3. Protect your skin with sunscreen

Selecting the right sunscreen is fundamental for your anti-pollution skincare routine. It shields your skin from the harmful rays of the sun while also reducing the chances of premature ageing. Select one based on your skin type. Sunscreens also help to keep your skin protected from sunburn-like reactions.

There are several medicated and non-medicated options for sunscreen in the market. If you are amongst those who complain about breakouts as a result of using sunscreen on the face, then opt for Sunmate Gel Cream with SPF 30+ protection. It boasts a non-sticky matte effect and is sweat resistant.

If you spend more time outdoors, you can also go for the Suncros Tint Spf 50+ Gel. Its water-resistant formula helps to maintain the natural skin tone while protecting it from the harmful sun rays.

If you are looking for a sunscreen with visible skin lightening effects, the Lotus Herbals Safe Sun 3-In-1 Matte Look Daily Sun Block will be the perfect fit for you.

Remember to apply sunscreen at least 15 minutes before stepping out in the sun.

4. Day Cream for well-nourished skin

Day Cream is bliss for your dull skin. The puffiness and tiredness of your skin can only be soothed with a nourishing day cream. These also help deal with fine lines and wrinkles that are caused by damaging sun rays and pollution.

However, it is crucial to pick a day cream that best suits your skin and needs. It’s always a safe bet to select an aloe-vera based day cream for your skin. You can easily go for The Face Shop Fresh Jeju Aloe Refreshing Ice Gel for soothing your sunburnt skin.

If you are looking for a light stay day cream, the Plum Grape Seed & Sea Buckthorn Light Stay Day Cream with SPF 30 protection will be a great fit.

Those experiencing heavy signs of ageing can also look into the Olay Total Effects 7 In One Anti-Ageing Day Cream. It comes with sun protection and has two variants normal and gentle for normal and sensitive skin respectively.

5. Shield with Sheet Mask

Sheet masks are the latest rage in the beauty world and for justified reasons. These hassle-free skincare tools nourish the skin instantly while also brightening it for a healthy glow. These are easy to apply and you will need 15 minutes before heading to bed. Just unfold, place it on the face and relax for a while. The serum in sheet masks readily gets absorbed into the skin and you do not even have to wash it off.

Sheet masks come with various ingredients. It’s best to select one with activated charcoal for protection from pollution. There are multiple options available on the market, like the Garnier Black Serum Mask Pure Charcoal.

Along with these, don’t forget to stay hydrated and eat fresh fruits for better glowing skin.
