Shraddha Kapoor’s Beauty Regime
CT: What’s your beauty regime like?
SK: I like to keep it as simple and natural as possible. You see, that’s the way I am. A lot of the times we have to make up on because of our field of work. Otherwise, I prefer to let my skin breathe mostly. I also like to use products that have strong ingredients like the Carrot Face Wash & Carrot Moisture Cream from The Body Shop. They are made from organic carrots. They are rich in antioxidants and perfect to achieve that healthy glowing skin. The Body Shop Tea Tree range is also my skin saviour. I also feel that Beauty is not confined to just physical beauty. Beauty is also about compassion, about positivity, about happiness and having a smile in your face.
CT: Your skin is absolutely flawless. Is it genetic or do you really take care of it?
SK: Well, thanks to my parents that I have good genes.
CT: Which products do you use as you wake up and before you sleep?
SK: My go-to morning product is The Body Shop Tea Tree Face Wash. At night, I wash my face with Himalayan Charcoal Purifying Clay Wash. Both are 100% vegan and has Community Trade tea tree oil from Kenya.
