Style File + Himalaya | The essential skin care step I'd been missing out on
Up until a few years ago, skincare was around number three
on my list of beauty priorities. Somewhere down the line, an unexpected
breakout on my relatively clear skin made me sit up and take notice. Many
dermatologist visits later, skin shot up to number one on that priority list.
This was followed by my face hogging all the attention, which is when I learned
that I had oily skin. Now if you're a slick faced lady like myself, you'll know
that it definitely isn't easy like a Sunday morning. In fact, it is more like a
treacherous Tuesday from where you can see the weekend but it isn't even close.
Yes, if skin types were days of the week, oily skin would be
Tuesday. It gives you hope of a clear face but the greasy texture and
unexpected blackheads always seem to cloud that vision. Girls with greasy skin,
you feel me. It can seem like an unending cycle of washing, moisturising and
blotting. Between complex routines and new techniques that I could barely wrap
my head around, I wondered if I'd ever be able to manage my oily skin.
And there was my answer to this greasy conundrum -
exfoliation. It was so simple and easy; and yet, I hadn't even considered it.
Imagine if you will a surface that needs a refresh, stat. The most natural
course of action would be to get scrubbing to give it a brand new look, right?
Then why should it be any different for our skin? That's when I discovered the
Himalaya Gentle Exfoliating Walnut Scrub. Arriving in my life when I needed it
the most, it felt like it had been dropped straight from the heavens.
Powered with Crab Apple, Wheat Germ Oil and Walnut Shell, this product is a powerhouse of talent. The greatest apprehension I had
with a face scrub is that it should be gentle on my skin even while scrubbing. I'm
glad to report that the Himalaya Gentle Exfoliating Walnut Scrub does just
that with its potent trio of key ingredients. The Crab Apple soothes away any
skin inflammation and stops the degradation of cells. The Walnut Shell micro-particles
exfoliate away the dead skin cells while keeping the blackheads at bay. And while
the skin is being scrubbed, the Vitamin E and natural Anti-oxidants within the
Wheat Germ Oil care for it.
All it took was a few washes to scrub away any apprehensions
I had about exfoliation. While the Himalaya Gentle Exfoliating Walnut Scrub
left my skin visibly and physically different, it made sure to leave it tender.
The texture of the scrub feels gritty within my fingers but not abrasive; an
important aspect which makes all the difference when exfoliating. That's how it
goes into the pores to unclog any residue and build-up for blackheads to be
kept at a safe distance. Along with face washing, my skin longed for more and
that's just what it got. With soft, happy skin, I couldn’t be thankful enough!
