The festive season is all about celebrations, laughter, and unforgettable memories, but it also brings with it long nights, endless social gatherings, makeup marathons, and a touch of seasonal stress that can take a toll on your skin. Between juggling Durga Puja pandal-hopping, wedding invites or Diwali get-togethers, the skin often ends up looking tired, dull and far from festive-ready. Which is why now's the ideal time to give your skincare a bit of a boost, so your glow lasts from the earliest pujo anjali to the last late-night party selfie.
These pro-approved skincare tips beyond the essentials are designed to keep your complexion looking lit-up during the festive period. From moisture-rich rituals that fight post-makeup dryness to home remedies and on-the-go fixes that give you a glow-up, these tips will ensure you stay lit-up throughout the festive period. In conversation with The Daily Jagran, Dr Blossom Kochhar, Pioneer in Aromatherapy and Founder, Blossom Kochhar Group of Companies, shares straightforward, effective and guaranteed skincare tips to make your skin glow brighter this festive season.
Skincare Rituals For Glowing Skin During Festive Season
Cleansing Is Non-Negotiable
Think of it as the reset button for your face. All the makeup, dust and sweat from the day need to come off. Dr Blossom Kochhar states, “A gentle face wash works well in the morning, but at night, make sure you remove every bit of makeup before sleeping. Your skin will thank you in the morning.”

Hydrate Inside And Out
Nothing steals glow faster than dryness. Keep sipping water throughout the day, even when you’re busy running around. On the outside, a light moisturiser or gel keeps the skin soft without feeling sticky. A quick spray of rose water or mist in between functions can also be a saviour.
A Little Extra Care
Festivals are a good time to give your skin some pampering. A DIY mask with honey or aloe works wonders, or you could just apply a chilled sheet mask before heading out. If you like face oils, a gentle massage boosts blood flow and leaves the skin looking dewy.

Don’t Forget Protection
Dr Blossom Kochhar advises, “Even during festivals, sunscreen is a must. Daytime outings expose the skin to sun damage, which later shows up as uneven tone.” At night, switch to a nourishing cream or serum so your skin can recover while you sleep.
