SKIN CARE FOR A FLIGHT

There's nothing like going on a vacation, but just because you are planning to take a break, doesn't mean you want your skin routine has to take a holiday too. Traveling on an airplane can take a huge toll on your skin leaving it dull and dry.

Aircraft cabin air is very dry as due to low humidity level, this can in turn cause our skin to become sensitive and tired quickly, but by following a few simple steps you can arrive at your destination with fabulous, glowing skin.

 EAT RIGHT

Stock up on nuts, raisins, dried cranberries and apples, sip on green tea or warm water and opt for a healthy salad or fruit bowl over the in-flight cookies. Caffeine and salt are best avoided.

NO MAKEUP!

Avoid wearing makeup while on an airplane, if you absolutely cannot go stripped of all makeup; make sure to avoid any foundation or powders as they further dry the skin.

 HYDRATE YOUR SKIN

The longer the flight the more frequently you should moisturize. Try the Forest Essentials Velvet Silk Body Cream Vitamin E for your hands and legs. Also be sure to dab a rich eye cream underneath your eyes as this area gets very dry. ( Quick Tip - Whenever you're in need of a little refresh, try a spritz of facial water spray in a convenient travel size – my pick the Forest Essentials Pure Rosewater Facial Toning Mist!)

 KEEP YOUR BEAUTY BAG HANDY

The maximum size, according to Indian airport security regulations is 100ml per product. Pack a small bag with all of your travel essentials; mine include the Forest Essentials Light Hydrating Facial Gel - Pure Aloe Vera and the new Ultra Nourishing Mandarin & Neem Hand and Nail Cream. Keep chapped lips at bay with the Luscious Kokum & Honey Lip Balm.

DRINK UP! Avoid further dehydration by skipping the alcohol and caffeine and drinking lots of water. Water is KEY in keeping our bodies hydrated while flying. Many of jet lag's symptoms (headache, irritability, upset stomach) can be avoided by controlling dehydration.

To really get your skin back in great shape, first exfoliate then moisturize from head to toe when you get to your hotel or home.

Be sure to follow these easy skin care tips while traveling. Your skin will look hydrated and refreshed, and no one will ever know that you have been on a long journey.

  HAPPY TRAVELS!

5 MAKE UP TRICKS THAT WILL ENSURE GOOD SKIN

We cannot deny the fact that we all love color cosmetics, especially during the festive and wedding season. From playing with your mother’s make up box when you were little to still pouting to apply your blush. Using a lot of makeup, for a long duration of time, clogs your pores and then leads to breakouts or rough and dry skin. Hence, it is absolutely necessary to lay a healthy foundation of good skin and then play with colors. With Forest Essentials products which are the best food for your skin you can mix some color and combine healthy skin with makeup. Here are 5 ways in which you can use your favorite natural Forest Essentials products with essential makeup wear for everyday.

 BASE:

Pre-moisturizer Sanjeevani beauty elixir, made of infused Sanjeevani buti and Ashwagandha, gives your skin a new life (as the name suggests). Take a pump of this silken pure cream and apply evenly over your skin. As the cream gets absorbed in your skin, it revives the skin from within by boosting the collagen level which plumps up your face. Over this, apply your foundation or BB cream and your skin is protected from all harsh chemicals.

EYES:

The second most important step of any look is the 'eyes'. Smoky, nude or pastels, eye shadow pigments brighten your eyes and give you a look of confidence. With colorful dry pigments, use our light hydrating hydra gel and add some pigment eye shadow to it. Mix it with a brush and dab it on your eye lids for the pigments to stay in place all night at a party. Plus the Aloe Vera gel cools and soothes your eyes.

LIPS:

Lipsticks can make your lips very dry and chapped. Use the lip scrub made with fine cane sugar granules to remove chapped lips and lighten pigmentation. Thereafter apply a non-fragrant Kokum Butter & Honey lip balm and wait for a minute for it to be soaked in. You can then apply any lipstick shade of your choice and your lips will be naturally glossy.

BODY SHIMMER:

Oh how much you would long for a classic sun tan or shimmer on your body just before a party. Use a bath and shower oil directly on your body after a bath and then pat dry it with a towel. Regular use of this leaves your body scented and adds a natural sheen. If you are wearing a deep cut for a party, take two drops of the oil and spread it all over for some instant shimmer.

MAKE UP REMOVER:

Do not go to bed without removing your make up. On a wet cotton, take two drops of our Make Up Remover oil and cleanse your smudge proof and water proof make up. In the process, this oil also helps in conditioning your eye lashes. A complete natural make up regime.

WHY IT IS IMPORTANT FOR MEN TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR SKIN?

Gone are those days when men’s skincare regime was basically confined to a bar of musk infused soap and a spicy aftershave. Given today’s busy lifestyle, proper skin care is just as important for men as for women. In today’s world, men are expected to present themselves with crisp style and confidence, in both the world of business and leisure. This makes skincare an inseparable part of their lives now.

There is no major difference between a male and female skin apart from some physiological differences. Male skin is thicker, oilier given the larger and numerous sebaceous glands which are active as they are majorly influenced by male hormones. The oiler skin makes them want to wash their face every now and then. But using harsh sulphate cleansers or a soap bar can completely strip off the natural moisture of their skin.

The above mentioned factors as well as constant shaving makes men’s skin sensitive and prone to skin conditions ranging from acne, extremely dehydrated skin, dullness and shaving ingrowths.

Keeping this in mind, here are a few reasons for why men should start focusing on their daily skincare along with some tips which should be followed for a healthy skin.

1.   Men’s Skin is tougher and tends to be generally oilier.

The secret to proper cleansing and balancing out excessively oily skin of men is to remove toxins and clear clogged pores without stripping the skin’s natural oils and moisture content. The Forest Essentials Sandalwood & Orange Peel Facial Cleanser gently deep cleanses the skin by removing excess sebum and impurities. Skin is left perfectly matte, clear and fresh as it is SLS/SLES free. It is enriched with Tender Coconut water which is known to be one of the best natural moisturizers.

2.   Shaving on a regular can leave your skin with rough texture and significant dark patches.

Opt for a SLS/SLES free shaving cream instead of shaving foam. Milder foaming does not strip off the natural moisture of the skin. The Forest Essentials Sandalwood & Orange Peel Shaving Cream contains pure Sandalwood paste, fresh Citrus extracts and Aloe Vera juice. This shaving cream gently soothes, moisturizes and lightens and brightens the skin. It generates a creamy lather that helps protect the skin from irritation by improving razor glide.

3.   Due to their reluctance to wear an SPF lotion, men’s skin generally tends to tan very easily.

Forest Essentials Narangi and Nagkesar Ubtan mixed with a few drops of Steam Distilled Pure Rose water can be used for getting rid of the post sunburn pigmentation and tan removal. Apply on damp skin and exfoliate mildly with gentle circular strokes. Rinse off with lukewarm water. This removes tan, lightens and brightens the skin leaving a mild fresh fragrance all day long. Always wear a day lotion with SPF 25 for sun protection.

4. After a long night out or stressful evening at work, men can get tired and puffy eyes with prominent eye bags.

To get rid of those effectively, apply the Forest Essentials Light Hydrating Hydra eye gel .You can also keep light cotton pads soaked in iced mild tea decoction on your eyes for soothing them.

So all you men out there! What are you waiting for ? Now you know the reasons for taking care of your skin and the right products too! Get started and work your way to a smoother, healthier and fresh skin.

Picks of the Season:

·         Light Hydrating Hydra Eye Gel

·         Oudh and Green Tea Body Mist

·         Sandalwood and Orange Peel After Shave Spray

OILY SKIN PROBLEMS? NOT ANYMORE AS OIL IS WELL!

Have you already started worrying about oily skin with the soaring temperatures?

 Relax!

The pitiless summer sun can shine as much as it can with ferocity, this worry wouldn’t last long as Forest Essentials products are coming to your rescue .They will give you the right amount of hydration and the skin will be left clear and oil-free.

Let’s understand the basics here first. A skin whose sebaceous glands produce excessive sebum- the natural oil of your skin is known as an oily skin. The general myth is that the more you wash your face, the lesser the oil gets. It’s actually the opposite!

 Surprised??

 A reality check now !The more you wash your face with Sulphate cleansers ,the more your skin is stripped off  its natural moisture .This in turn makes the sebaceous glands hyperactive producing large quantities of sebum.

 The Result- More Oil on your Skin!!!

 Here are some recommendations for balancing the oil content on your skin .Also sharing some interesting facts about the herbs infused in these products.

 DAILY REGIME

 Step 1 -Cleansing

 Use Kashmiri Saffron and Neem Delicate Facial Cleanser in the Morning .It is an SLS/ SLES free Cleanser which does not strip off the natural moisture of your skin. At night time, instead of the Cleanser use theNarangi and NagkesarUbtan . Add chilled Aloe Vera Juice to the Ubtan, mix well and rub gently to remove dirt and excess oil before rinsing it well with chilled water.For those with active acne, apply as a thin film and don’t scrub at all.

 Doctor’s Diary:

 Neem is a very well known antibacterial .But did you know that Neem or AzadirachtaIndica was called “Azad -dirakht-i-Hind,” meaning ‘the free tree of India’ by Persian Scholars?

Step 2 -Toning

Spray a fine mist of Pure Rosewater Facial Tonic Mist during the day as well as the night. This is pure, fresh Steam Distilled Floral Waters of the finest Roses from Kannauj. Without any alcohol or preservative, it can be sprayed over your make up to set it as well and hydrate the skin for a fresh appearance.

Doctor’s Diary:

 Did you that Kannauj is known as the ‘Attar Capital of India’ and is famous for its Damask or the highly scented DesiGulab?

Step 3- Sealing

Use chilled Pure Aloe Vera Gel to seal the moisture in your skin both during the day and night time.

·Step 4 -Moisturising during the day and Nourishment during the night.

As I have already mentioned, even an oily skin requires a minimum quantity of oil balance and moisturising! Don’t forget to use theLavendar and Neroli Light Day Lotion with SPF 25 during the day and at the night time, the Jasmine and Patchouli Night Treatment Cream. SPF25 is good enough to protect your skin and more is not necessary.Too high an SPF does not allow your skin to breathe.

 Doctor’s Diary:

 Did you know that the Lavendar Bud is covered in tiny hairs — that is what contains the essential oils?It is a wonderful anti bacterial and helps to reduce acne as well.

Doctor’s Diary:

 Last but not the least; remember oily skin has a major benefit. The visible signs of ageing appear at a much later stage in an oily skin. So all those people who’ve always dreaded oily skin woes can now relax and sing –“Oil is well” as with these entire wonderful herb infused products, you should be well equipped to tackle any oily skin issues.

SKINCARE IN MONSOON!

Ayurveda believes that monsoon is the most unfavorable time for health as Dosha imbalances can leave their signs on one’s skin, overall health and well-being. By incorporating some minor changes in your daily monsoon skin care routine you can help keep your skin fresh and glowing. Use soap free cleansers and a good scrub to keep the skin moist. Always use an alcohol free toner, kept in the fridge and sprayed as often as required during the day. A miniature size is handy to carry in your bag.

 Hair care in monsoon is also an essential aspect as the rain water can make your scalp oily, accumulate dirt and damage the texture making it greasy. Warm oil massages, using a suitable hair cleanser and conditioner best suitable for your concerns is of utmost importance.

A balanced diet and healthy lifestyle are two essentials as the weather conditions shift drastically. Your meals should be cooked and ideally served warm, including your breakfast taken at regular times every day. Include ghee to boost immunity. Warm soups, stews, risottos, dals, rice, pasta or curry should be a part of your regular diet. Avoid all kinds of processed or fried, cold, raw or dry food.

 Opt for herbal teas, hot water or warm milk spiced with cardamom, cinnamon and nutmeg before bedtime is calming and will help with sleep. For the very first time, we have curated regimes for you that have been pre-set according to your skin types for this season.

REGIME FOR COMBINATION SKIN

The Facial Ubtan Soundarya mixed with yogurt deep cleanses your skin. Rinse off the ubtan and gently spray the Facial Toner Pure Rosewater allover your face. Apply a thin layer of the Light Hydrating Facial Gel Pure Rosewater to seal the natural moisture of your skin and follow it up with The Facial Treatment Masque Mysore Sandalwood & Nagkesar once a week to firm, tone and give your skin a radiant glow.

REGIME FOR DRY SKIN

Cleanse your skin with the Facial Ubtan Roop Nikhar Gulab mixed with raw milk. Spritz some Facial Toner Pure Rosewater to minimize your pores. Pure Rosewater Gel with the base of Aloe vera soothes your dry skin and nourishment is provided by the rich Madhulika Honey Lep to be used once or twice a week.

REGIME FOR OILY SKIN

Oily skin is troublesome in any season. Use the anti-bacterial facial cleanser Kashmiri Saffron & Neem. Keep in handy the Facial Tonic Mist Bela to hydrate and follow it up with Pure Aloe Vera Light moisturizing Facial Gel to void the chances of any breakouts. Mix the Facial Ubtan Multani Mitti with yogurt or a teaspoon of fresh tomato juice and use it as a pack to diminish any active acne.
