Mom-to-be Kiara Advani, 35, reveals her skincare ‘non-negotiable’: ‘I drink sunscreen’
Mom-to-be Kiara Advani, 35, has revealed her skincare non-negotiable during her second pregnancy: she drinks sunscreen. At a recent launch event, the Toxic actor openly discussed her skincare staples, and sunscreen has become a favorite. She practices sun protection by mixing a serum, moisturizer, cleansing, toning, and sunscreen routine.
Dr Seema Oberoi Lall, a consultant dermatologist at CK Birla Hospital, emphasized the importance of using physical sunscreen containing micronized oxide or iron oxide, which is safe for pregnant women. Chemical sunscreens are to be avoided. Dr Rinky Kapoor, a consultant dermatologist at The Esthetic Clinics, advised applying a generous amount of sunscreen to the face, hands, neck, and ears, reapplying every 2-3 hours, even on cloudy days or indoors, as UV rays can penetrate through windows.
She also warned against using retinoid, vitamin A-based products, hydroquinone, arbutin, and heavy mineral makeup during pregnancy.
