5 Reasons Why You Should Switch To
Cruelty-Free Skincare
We know it’s easy to reach for
hyped products without putting much thought into what goes into making it.
However, with so much awareness about what goes into what we put on our skin,
it’s time to take notice.
With the current change in
beauty trends and people becoming aware of the intensity of these testing
methods, cruelty-free brands have now become quite popular. To put an end on
using animal tested, skincare we need to know why is there a need to do. Team
of experts from Quench Botanics lists down 5 reasons on why one should switch
to cruelty-free skincare.
Animal Testing for Cosmetics
and Skincare Is Unnecessary
Cosmetic companies already have
a list of over 7,000 ingredients that are already proven to be safe. More
humane alternatives are out there and technology has made them only better and
more accurate. These include Vitro diagnostics, cell culture tests and computer
modelling. There is sufficient existing safety data to render animal testing
for products obsolete.
It’s More Sustainable
Being more mindful of what we
consume is always a good thing. Moreover, animal testing labs produce
considerable quantities of toxic waste that is extremely damaging to the
environment. Plus, with mindful consumption, we buy only the things we need,
reducing waste.
Saves Lives, Quite Literally
The influx of cruelty-free
products means that companies are slowly but surely adopting more ethical
practices and shutting down animal labs, sparing lives. This helps preserve
eco-spheres and prevents species extinction. A lot of cruelty-free companies
also donate to green causes!
It’s Better for Your Skin
Cruelty-free skincare uses
fewer chemicals than most animal-tested brands. These ingredients are tried and
tested over a long time and have been proven safe through other methods of
testing. Plus, you don’t have to live with the death of a cute bunny on your
conscience!
You’ll Be Supporting other
businesses
A lot of brands test on
animals. Switching to cruelty-free brands help support causes close to your
heart. You’ll be contributing to your country’s economy as well. You will have
a plethora of brands to pick from, as more and more companies are choosing to
forgo animal testing.
Plus, there is the added
benefit of feeling great knowing that you’ve made a positive difference in the
world!
Dry Skin Vs Dehydrated Skin:
Here Is The Difference
Many of us struggle from dry
skin at some point or at times its an ongoing problem. And that we need to
invest in certain skincare products that can take care of this. Then, there are
others who have been told their skin is ‘dehydrated’. You may have seen dry and
dehydrated used interchangeably, but they are not the same thing. Team of
experts from Quench Botanics elaborate on the difference between dry &
dehydrated skin.
Dry Skin
Dry skin lacks oil. This is
usually a permanent condition as it is a skin type. This skin type is
characterized by your sebaceous glands not secreting enough sebum. As a result,
the skin barrier doesn’t get enough lipids to lubricate the skin. This usually
causes flakiness and redness, making the skin appear rough, cracked and
leathery.
Dehydrated Skin
Dehydrated skin lacks moisture
content. Unlike dry skin, it is a skin condition and can be ‘fixed’ – anyone
can experience dehydrated skin – yes, even oily skin! Dehydrated skin looks
flat and dull and can show flaking in patches. It also shows up as fine lines.
It is usually caused by change in seasons, harsh weather, and stress and sun
damage.
How to treat dry &
dehydrated skin?
Steer clear of cleansers that
leave your skin dry and stretchy. Instead, go for cream cleansers or cleansing
balms that are loading with good fatty acids and oils that’ll help plump your
skin as it cleanses it gently.
Make sure you are drinking at
least 2-3 litres of water! It really does reflect in your skin. If it is
summer, you may require more water. Set a reminder to drink water every hour to
avoid that dehydration.
For a dehydrated skin,
humectants, ingredients that help pull moisture into your skin. Hyaluronic acid
and glycerin are great humectants and are especially amazing for dehydrated
skin. Try the fast-absorbing Mama Cica Dark Spot Correcting Ampoule which
contains hydrating ingedients like cica, hyaluronic acid, lotus root and Korean
ginseng.
No More Cakey Makeup: Here’s
How To Prep Your Skin For A Flawless Look
The road to smooth, non-cakey
makeup is quite bumpy (pun intended). Who knows what’s sitting on your skin
before you slather your face with foundation? And obviously, just using a
cleanser is not sufficient for that clean look! So, think of your skin as a blank
canvas. The smoother the canvas is, the better the painting will look. For
that, you have to weed out everything that is coming in the way – oiliness,
congestion, dullness, dryness, large pores and oh the list goes long.
Quench Botanics team of experts
will help you prep your skin before make-up that will ensure a glowy and a
flawless look.
Step 1: A Through Cleanse
Cleansing helps reset your
skin. From dirt, grease, oil to pollution residue, anything that is sitting on
your face will be taken care of. So, based on your skin type and concerns, you
can pick a cleanser that suits you. For oily, acne-prone or combination skin,
its’s best to opt for a non-stripping, gel-based cleanser. We recommend our
Chialeader Shine Control Gel Face Wash and Mama Cica Pore Clearing Exfoliating
Face Wash. They both contain pore-clearing and oil-balancing ingredients that
control and prevent acne. For dry skin, try our Bravocado Pollution Rescue
Cream Face Wash and Mesmerice Gentle Exfoliation Cream Face Wash, which are very
hydrating.
Step 2: Can’t Do Without
Exfoliation
Exfoliating before makeup not
only gives you a clean, clear canvas to work with but also ensures that your
makeup stays on for long. So, when a smooth makeup + glowing skin in your mind,
nothing beats our Birch Please Intense Glow Gel Mask. It lends an instant glow
and deeply hydrates skin. It contains salicylic acid that works on the skin's
deeper layer to reveal fresh and firm skin. It bestows a lit-from-within glow
that will peek through your makeup as well. The cooling gel consistency helps
du-puff your face and the mellow fragrance will instantly calm and relax you.
Step 3: Time to Tone
After you’ve exfoliated, your
pores have opened up to the world. Not using a toner post exfoliating will
leave them open attracting dust, dirt and even makeup. Plus, a toner will
ensure that your moisturizer is seeping into the skin and not just sitting on
the surface. Indulge in our Yuzu Fine Vitamin C Brightening Toner and give your
skin a makeover. It contains superfruit yuzu, which has 3X more vitamin C than
lemons, niacinamide and ascorbic acid that brighten skin and lightens dark
spots. Take some on your palms and pat it on your face and neck. Allow it
settle into your skin before you move onto the next step.
Step 4: Hello Hydration
Moisturizer will always be
non-negotiable. No matter whether it is outside, or what skin type you have.
Smoothen your face with a hydrating moisturiser which not only offers intense
hydration, but also sun protection with SPF 40+ PA+++. This is a genius way to
reap the benefits of two products in one step. It’s non-sticky, non-greasy,
non-oily and does not leave any white cast, which makes it perfect to apply
under makeup.
Step 5: Brighten Up Your Eyes
The best way to avoid under eye
concealer creasing? Use an eye cream! Depuff your eyes for a fresh, well-rested
look with a hydrating undereye gel. A product that contains hyaluronic acid
that tackles dryness and plumps the delicate under eye area. Just let it sit on
under your eyes for 10 minutes and you’ll have instantly de-puff, fresh eyes!
Step 6: Prime Time
Never jump right into your base
makeup without applying a coat of primer. It acts like glue and increases your
makeup’s stay and longevity. Plus, the pore-blurring effect allows your makeup
to glide with ease and not settle into pores and fine lines. If you have oily
or acne-prone skin, use a pore-perfecting and oil-controlling primer that
prevents your makeup from melting. For those with dry skin, apply a hydrating
primer which nourishes your skin and prevents dry patches from showing. If you
have dull and lack-luster skin, then a brightening primer will be perfect for
you.
How To Transition Your Skincare
Routine for The Upcoming Monsoon Season!
Just like the Earth is finally
quenching its thirst in some parts of India after months of scorching heat, now
it’s your skin’s turn to get its long-due TLC as well. That being said,
navigating a skincare routine that can surpass common monsoon concerns like
dullness, itching, and acne is a slippery road.
So, as the temperature has
stooped low, and the humidity has risen, Quench Botanics team of experts
suggests few skincare swaps that will leave you with surprising skin results!
Don't Just Cleanse, Double
Cleanse
Monsoon is the breeding season
for bacteria, and impurities to clog your skin and make it dull. The best way
to tackle this? Use an oil-based cleansing balm to massage away all the baddies
and get healthy pores and skin. Follow it up with a gel-based cleanser and your
pores will shed some happy tears.
Embrace Water-based Skincare
Products
Let it rain on your skin, with
products that are high in water content. That means creams, moisturizers, serum
or facial oils that are heavy on the skin, need to be tucked away for a while.
Think hyaluronic acid and super-hydrating essences that hit the jackpot when
talking about hydration. Our best pick? The Quench Botanics Birch Please Skin
Soothing Clarifying Serum go amazingly-well together.
Incorporate Clay Masks
While sheet masks are the
perfect way to end hot summer days, monsoon calls for deep cleansing,
detoxifying and pore-purifying masks that sweep off dirt and grime. If your
skin tends to get very oily during this season, then a clay mask is your saviour.
It zaps excess oil, and draws out impurities to give you blemish-free, healthy
skin.
On the other hand, if rainy
seasons means dull skin to you, nothing surpasses a brightening clay mask or a
cleanser. With brightening ingredients like cherry blossom, grapefruit and
pearl, dull skin does not stand a chance.
Mists Out, Toners In!
The rain can wreak havoc on
your skin if your pores aren’t prepped for it. To give them a helping hand and
prevent clogging, indulge in Quench Botanics Matcha Better Pore Clearing Skin
Tonic. This potent liquid gently exfoliates, unclogs pores, eliminates blackheads
as well as hydrates the skin.
Pick A Gel-based Face Cleanser
During monsoon, when your skin is already
undergoing a turmoil, treat it with a calming and nourishing gel-based face
wash. Where foaming face washes are great to dissolving summer sweat and dirt,
Quench Botanics’ Matcha Better Skin Detox Gel Face Wash deeply detoxifies with
its biodegradable beads and revitalizes skin thanks to ingredients like
mandarin orange peel oil, chamomile, and rose geranium oil.
