October has arrived already so you know what that means, right? Autumn is here and the holidays are close at hand. Winter truly is coming but you know what that also signals? Flaky, dull skin. If you aren't part of the Game Of Thrones megaverse and shrug off skincare rather nonchalantly, your lifeless, dull skin is probably crying out for a boost of radiance. Lucky for you, we know just how to handle it.
1. Don't forget to scrub
Although scrubbing is an integral part of every skin care routine, it's also generally forgotten. Since skin cells are produced aplenty by the body, they also perish frequently. If they aren't removed; they accumulate on the skin and leave it grimy. Get rid of them by exfoliating your skin with a scrub twice a week. This will get rid of dullness and grime so that your skin is left healthy and glowing.
2. Never skip the serum
Between toning, cleansing and moisturising, it can feel like serum is sort of unnecessary. In reality, it really isn't. Unlike other beauty products, the molecules of skin serums are more concentrated and smaller in size, which allows the formula to go deeper into the skin's pores. Serum, thus, give the skin a boost without leaving it with a greasy film. Opt for one that's enriched with anti-oxidants and Vitamin C for glowing skin.
3. Get masking
Sometimes, all your skin care worries really do end in the kitchen. So if dull skin is bugging you, turn to a homemade face pack. To make it, combine 3 tablespoons of fresh milk cream with half a teaspoon of turmeric and 1 tablespoon of honey. Mix well and apply to your face and neck. Leave it to air dry for 30 minutes and wash off with warm water. As these ingredients are known for their nourishing and radiance boosting powers, this simple face mask will be all your dull skin needs.
