You require instruction on how to present yourself in the best possible light. Deepika Padukone is your go-to star because she is always put together. The actress is a much-needed champion for mental health awareness, as well as an icon for her beauty and style statements on screen and on the red carpet. Do you want to know what she’s hiding? We pulled the greatest advice she’s given us over the years, from when she was a rookie to Bollywood in 2010, to now, nine years later.
The skin care advice she swears by? Always take makeup off before bed
Padukone’s glowing skin is due in great part to her dedication to maintaining it. “Before I go to bed, I make a point of removing all of my makeup and keeping my skin clean. I always make it a point to take it off, no matter how exhausted I am or how hectic my day has been,” she told Vogue India in 2017. Makeup can block pores and inhibit skin from healing itself when worn overnight, leading to breakouts, fine wrinkles, and skin aging. Because the actor uses makeup on a daily basis, including occlusive base products like foundation, cleansing is essential. Padukone also uses a skincare routine that exfoliates, washes, and moisturizes her skin. She moisturizes her skin using a night cream and sunscreen, which she “applies twice a day.” To detox the skin, she prefers clay masks (such as the L’Oréal Paris Pure-Clay Mask). “In just 10 minutes, it works wonders and leaves my skin feeling fresh, healthy, and hydrated,” she added.
The secret to her statement brows is that she doesn’t do anything with them.
While brow gels, fillers, and pencils can help you achieve a well-groomed brow, the brows that are most popular in 2019 are powerful, natural, and face-framing. Padukone claims that leaving hers alone was the best decision she had made in terms of appearance. “What many people do is go to the salon and keep threading and threading their brows until they have pencil-thin brows.” Your face is defined by its thickness and shape. “I believe that the fuller your brows are, the younger you appear,” she explained.
Her fitness formula is to just keep going
Padukone’s slim body is a result of her consistent fitness routine. While she’s changed her workout routines over the years—she worked with personal trainer Abhishek Sharma in 2010, Pilates teacher Yasmin Karachiwala in 2017, and tried strength training with Nam Wook Kang in 2019—she’s remained committed to keeping her fitness levels consistent. “Regardless of my schedules, I make it a point to work out as often as possible.” “It’s critical to have practical and realistic workout goals in order to achieve long-term goals,” she stated. Padukone, in fact, swore by the transformational effect of a good sweat session even back in 2010. “A brief workout followed by a quick spa session, or even just a quick steam and sauna, will make you feel instantly better about yourself. Work out followed by a spa treatment makes me feel great,” she said.
She doesn’t discount her mental health
Padukone recently opened up about her sadness and anxiety, telling Vogue that it was “the most painful experience” she’d ever had in 2018. Since then, she’s been focusing on sharing her experiences and creating spaces for others to share theirs. Padukone attributes her recovery to psychotherapy and medicine. “Today, I’m aware that wherever I go in the world, people will perceive me as someone who has struggled with depression. I’m feeling emancipated and unrestricted. I don’t feel confined or like I’m hiding anything anymore,” she remarked.
She has made similar makeup choices for nine years
Padukone said in 2010 that she preferred to adhere to the classics when it came to her cosmetics. “I keep my makeup minimal and clean. I use dark brown, crimson, and maroon lipsticks, as well as a blush and mascara. I’m not a big fan of shine, so matte is the way to go,” she explained. Padukone’s filmography hasn’t changed much in the last nine years. The actor still prefers a dark lip color, matte foundation, and kohl-rimmed eyes, which she wore to her wedding in 2018.
