So, giving yourself a day off to just care for your skin with homemade face packs, some smoothies, and nothing but rest is definitely high up on the list of the month of love.

Many of us spent a major part of 2020 learning different makeup looks that we can try at home. But, did you remember to clean your accessories? Most of us have a habit of getting dressed and rushing out of the door to attend events. By the time we get back home, we’re too tired to even bother about the makeup brushes. It’s a wonder that we manage to even wipe the makeup off. So, please take some time to clean your makeup accessories. You owe it to your skin.

9. Make a DIY lip scrub with lemon and sugar

Winter tends to dry our skin terribly which makes us use more moisturisers. Our lips, which have really tender, delicate skin, also need constant moisturisation. However, that can often leave layers of dead skin and a patchy look that can be irritating. To fix this problem, prepare a DIY lip scrub at home and freshen up your pout.
