It took me a long time to figure out what works for my skin: Sunny Leone

Sunny Leone, who was in Bengaluru recently, caught up with Bangalore Times to speak about the importance of taking care of your skin. Excerpts:
‘A lot of work has to go into achieving a clean, glowing skin’The idea of having really clean, glowing skin is also something that’s in trend right now. When you look at celebs being papped, or when they post on social media, the one thing they have in common is their glowing skin and you often wonder how they managed to achieve it. But here’s the thing, you cannot achieve it instantly. A lot of care has to go into what you eat, and how you take care of your skin.

‘There is no one rule for all when it comes to skincare’Every person’s skin type and texture and so they have different needs. I don’t think here in India people can simply copy skin care routines because our weather, air and skin texture are all different. Having said that, I am a firm believer of aloe vera. If you have an aloe vera plant, keep it, grow it, cut it open and use it whenever you want your skin to glow a little bit more or kill the bacteria that are on the surface of the skin and apply it.
‘You should never go to bed without washing your face’ I try out a million things on my skin till I figure out what works for me, so I don’t have a go-to regime. But the one thing I religiously do is wash my face twice a day. Before going to bed at the end of each day, make sure you clean your face properly so that all the dirt and bacteria from your face don’t get transferred onto your pillowcase.
