Varalaxmi’s first love is a silicone‑free gel cleanser from Dr. Jart+ (₹1,200). It lifts grime without stripping moisture, leaving her skin feeling fresh and ready for the day.
Her second step is a niacinamide serum by The Ordinary (₹700), which she swears off dark spots and dullness after just a week. The lightweight texture slides in like a whisper and the 2% formula is a budget‑friendly hero.
The final act of her routine is a night cream from Laneige – the Water Bank Hydro Gel (₹1,800). She says the gel‑creme combo gives her skin a dewy, sleep‑kissed glow that’s perfect for a quick morning lift.
Being childfree has opened up a lot of time for these rituals. No late‑night diaper changes or school run errands mean she can dedicate a clean‑up ritual to her own skin every night. She says “self‑care isn’t a luxury when you’re not juggling a toddler’s schedule.”
If you’re looking to try one of these products, head to Nykaa or Amazon for easy delivery. Start with the Dr. Jart+ cleanser and see how a gentle cleanse can reset your whole routine. Then layer on the Ordinary serum and finish with Laneige’s hydro gel for a full‑spectrum glow that’s all yours.
