NDTV Swirlster: What part of the skinimalism trend appeals to you the most?
Aditi Rao Hydari: Honestly, I can't follow trends because by the time I hear of a trend it's done and dusted. I'm curious and I keep learning things. If something works for me, I stick with it. I've always loved to keep my skin clean and fuss-free and concentrate on my own kind of skincare.
NDTV Swirlster: Why is The Luxe Life an important platform for you to be a part of?
Aditi Rao Hydari: Because luxury is not only about external material things. To me, it's about finding beauty in your everyday life and valuing it. I feel this more today than before.
NDTV Swirlster: What are your thoughts on how important skincare became versus makeup during the pandemic?
Aditi Rao Hydari: I've always believed that I should give more time to skincare than makeup. I barely use any makeup whether on screen or in my everyday life and so I have to look after my skin a lot.
