Add these 'less-mentioned' beauty hacks to flaunt Ms. Panday-like skin!

Ice Cubes Prep

Prepping the skin with ice cubes is the old-school way, but works forever! Before the makeup application, Ananya glides the soft cloth-wrapped ice cubes over her face.

This soothing beauty hack de-puffs her skin and tightens the open pores too. The result? A firm, fresh look that is ready to apply the makeup on to and offer the required radiance!

Ditch Fragrant Face Washes

Instead of washing the face with face cleansers that feel too harsh or loaded with fragrances, the 'Call Me Bae' actor relies on gentle cleansers. Face wash solutions with hydrating elements like ceramides or hyaluronic acids are her best bets.

Her tried-and-tested beauty mantra? Do not over-cleanse the skin. Just wash the face with a water-soluble mild cleanser to maintain the skin's barrier and natural oils!

Green Smoothie Philosophy

You are what you eat! And you skin reflects the 'good things' that you put in your system. Ananya loves her morning green smoothie which includes a fine blend of spinach, cucumber, kale, lemon, and ginger.

This green liquid works like a daily detox potion. It aids in keeping the skin hydrated, boosts gut health, and feeds the skin all the necessary antioxidants. With such skin-friendly drinkables, dullness or breakouts will soon be history!

Earthy Glow Masks

When Ananya's skin needs a boost, she goes to her kitchen. Her favourite do-it-yourself hack? A basic face pack with rosewater and fuller's earth aka multani mitti.

It enhances her complexion, reduces inflammation, and cleanses her skin deeply. She now uses this ancient cure every Sunday to achieve clear, smooth skin.

Let The Skin Be

Ananya uses a very easy yet powerful trick: she refrains from touching her face excessively during the day. The reasons? There are fewer breakouts when there is less interference.

Additionally, she restricts the frequency of her skincare product changes. She allows her skin to be and lets it adjust rather than going for the latest skincare trends!

The Spot Solutions

Ananya prefers spot-treating over coating active chemicals all over her face. Have a pimple? She simply applies a small dab of tea tree oil or salicylic acid on the spot.

This clever hack prevents the surrounding skin from becoming overly dry or irritated. Instead of leaving the rest of the skin exposed and vulnerable, this trick keeps the skin healed and glowing!

The Blue Light Shield

The blue light exposure is not good for our skin. What's that? Simply put the light emitted from phones, laptops, and other gadgets is not so positive. The 'Kesari 2' movie star's skincare regimen consists of moisturizers and serums high in antioxidants, which provide defence against the blue light effects.

In the digital age, Ananya maintains her skin barrier by applying skincare products before lengthy Zoom sessions or days that involve a lot of screens. This is an unusual but wise practice!
