Save Vs Spend: Where to Invest in your Skincare – By Mamta Bhatia

A resolution we all have taken this year is to indulge ourselves more into self-care. Well self-care can mean from spending more time with our friends to picking up a hobby to taking care of the biggest organ of our body, our skin. Because you know, happy skin aligns to a happy mood.

However, in this journey of skincare one can get a bit overwhelmed looking at the sheer number of products out there. Every time you make a scroll on Instagram there’s a new product offering, making it all the more confusing. So here we are, to talk about the products that are an absolute investment and stand true to their claims and at the same time, products that you don’t need to splurge your money on.

With our hectic schedules every day we are looking for skincare routines that are not so intensive and take minimal time and energy. Why go for a moisturiser and a sunscreen separately when simply one product can do both the jobs? Introducing to you this Ginseng Day Cream from Anour that helps balance oil production and pigmentation along with protecting your skin from the sun sensitivity. The Day Cream is light weight and is uniquely formulated with SPF 20. Enriched with Hyaluronic acid, it makes the skin feel nourished, plump fine lines and improves the overall texture and tone of the skin.

In case you travel a lot and love to keep your products handy in your little-cute handbag, go for this absolute winner Cherry Bomb Lip and Cheek Tint. Not only is this natural and gentle, it also acts as a two-in-one application for the lips and cheek. It helps in moisturising your lip while adding a brilliant lip color & can also be used to give that perfect cherry flush tint to brighten your cheeks. It’s perfect for the days you want to achieve a no-fuss subtle makeup look. The point here is, we often end up passing big money on expensive lipsticks and blushes solely to create that no-makeup makeup look. Well, the good news is, this Cherry Lip and Cheek Tint does the same thing for you but at a much better rate. Also, Lip products have a shelf life so it’s only smarter to buy the less expensive ones.

Imagine you are stepping out for a date & you forget to splash your favourite Perfume, Nightmare, right? Well, you can create a fantastic look by putting on the best skin care and best make-up but if you miss out on Perfume, it’s almost like skipping a personality trait that could have made a lasting impression on your date. Speaking of which, Anour offers you a Cocktail Drop Solid Perfume infused with Shea Butter, Cocoa butter & Silicon Wax. It lingers on your skin for hours and practically massages your pulse points with scent. Now if you are wondering how is this a smarter purchase than the other expensive perfumes available in the market, this one will last much longer and is compact in size, making it all the more easy to carry when you travel.
