They said skincare not skin show. Go play with your child or something.

No I use same products as her 😆

Especially facial hair 😆

I am approaching 30 soon, and I want to continue looking youthful for as long as possible. What magic products do I use to avoid early onset of ageing? What are you guys using? Please share you secrets.

I want to look like this at 48.

Don't have unrealistic expectations for yourself.

Even Ash doesn't look like that at 48 without professional make-up, lighting, angles, great camerawork and finally editing/airbrushing/photoshop. That's not even counting the discrete fillers and botox. Indian paparazzi photos are also extremely low-resolution so it covers the imperfections. (And American pap photos if you've called them yourself will photoshop the pics before releasing them)

You are just getting the image they want you to have. That's not how they really look either.

I am perfect.😎

lol. I feel so inadequate when I read these ~skincare routines~. I just smear Cetaphil, Bio-oil and sunscreen and call it a day. 🤣

And I watch these kind of videos to feel happy that I am doing the right things. 🤓

A very informative channel BTW.

ooh, will watch right now. Saw the thumbnail with La Mer and had to comment first. I have tried La Mer continuously for a few days because my cousin buys every expensive thing on the market and we all use her stuff. 🤣 And NO, it is nothing special. I have extremely dry skin and even after trying out super-expensive stuff, Cetaphil still works better. My skin is so dry that it actually starts hurting if I don't get enough moisture and none of those expensive creams have done a thing.

I am in love with Dr. Vanita Rattan on youtube. She gives the best skincare advice for our desi brown skin. It has been an absolute game changer for me. Don't take advice from random people ❤️. We all have very different skin. What works for others might not work for you

Drink lots of water 😆

Standard tip by bw people lol

I get what you're saying but I saw her in person few years ago from a distance of less than two feet. She looked absolutely radiant and stunning.

What are these products you use? I have extremely dry skin too.

Cetaphil is a brand of cheap moisturizer but I will swear by it. I've tried so so so many expensive things and nothing matches up. There are times I've put on something expensive but my skin feels so horrible that I have to come back and put a layer of Cetaphil on top just to feel okay again. I use a large amount.

I also put on Bio-oil on top of Cetaphil. It's mainly for the body but I use it on my face too.

And on top of that, I put on whatever sunscreen I have at the moment. I don't even wear it for sun protection - I just like how shiny and glowing it makes my skin look. No foundation will give you that. At least it doesn't for me since my skin is so dry.

Apart from the extreme dryness, I have really good skin though so your mileage might vary depending on what other issues you have. I don't get pimples or acne and I don't have any scars or discoloration.

And btw, these products work so well that nobody knows I have horrible dry skin. Not even the ladies at the make-up counter. 😆

Ultimately though your genes matter a lot. Some people are naturally going to age a lot better and some people are not. 😆
