With all the skincare products, steps, and miracle cures out there, working out what’s right for your skin can feel overwhelming. From 10-step routines to expensive premium creams that promise flawless skin, knowing where to start and what really works is a lot to take in. As a mum of three grown-up daughters and a baby granddaughter, I’m no stranger to questions about my age—and soon after, the inevitable follow-up: “What’s your skincare routine?” so, I thought I’d share it with you to show just how simple and transparent it can be. No tricks, no complex steps, and definitely no hefty price tags!
At Kushboo Soaps, we believe that skincare should be straightforward, natural, and nourishing, which is why I rely on only two essential products each day:
In the morning and evening, I wash and cleanse my face with our Tea Tree Soap. I love it for its gentle yet effective ability to remove impurities and refresh my skin. Tea tree oil is known for its natural antibacterial and soothing properties, which make it a great choice if you're prone to breakouts or just want to keep your skin feeling fresh. But really, any of our soaps can be used as a face cleanser, thanks to their natural, skin-loving ingredients.
Not all soaps are created equal, and most can leave your skin dry and stripped of its natural oils. At Kushboo, we’re dedicated to changing that. Each bar of our soap is handcrafted in-house, from scratch, infused with Indian wisdom on soap-making and knowledge of botanicals that do more than just cleanse—they deeply nourish. Our Tea Tree Soap, for instance, is crafted with ingredients and oils that soothe, calm, and moisturise, leaving your skin feeling refreshed rather than parched. It’s part of a skincare routine that truly respects your skin, allowing it to thrive without harsh chemicals or additives.
After cleansing, I apply our Kushboo Face Oil as my moisturiser. This blend hydrates and nourishes my face and neck, morning and night, with natural oils that give a glow without any heaviness. I find it perfect for keeping my skin balanced, soft, and resilient. The turmeric in the oil helps to soothe and brighten, while jojoba oil provides deep hydration, mimicking the skin’s own natural oils to maintain balance. Rosehip oil works to improve skin elasticity. These natural ingredients work well together, offering a luxurious yet simple routine that respects your skin’s needs and brings out its natural radiance. The combination of these these nurturing ingredients provides my skin with antioxidants that combat dryness and environmental stressors.
That’s it—two steps, a handful of carefully selected ingredients, and complete transparency. It’s all about quality, not quantity, and the simplicity of using natural ingredients that support healthy, beautiful skin. With so many choices on the market, skincare doesn’t have to be complicated or pricey to be effective.
If you’re looking to simplify your skincare or try a routine that’s honest, natural, and proven, consider a routine like mine. And, as always, if you have any questions, I’m here to help!
