These Body Care Essentials Will Be Your BFFs In The Run-Up To The Wedding
Salon appointments aside, what are some great body care essentials you can invest in to prepare for D-day? Read on to know…
Us Indians have always had a good understanding of body care, take for instance the fact that ubtans and non-toxic hair cleansers have been used in Indian households for generations. But right now, it takes a little more than a singular ubtan or shower scrub session to keep one’s skin glowing. With so many pollutants, toxins and modern-day stressors impeding our ability to achieve healthy skin, we need elevated essentials to master radiant skin, especially for the days preceding your wedding day!
There's a lot to do, and there’s unavoidable chaos and emotional moments that’ll leave you exhausted, so it’s only natural for you to take extra care of yourself during such a time! Which is why we’ve curated a list of pampering body care essentials for you.
