If there is one thing the gorgeous Alia Bhatt is renowned for (besides her playful personality and solid on-screen presence), it’s the actress’ flawless and glowing skin! She is among those rare beauties who radiate like dew on the morning grass, and her many ‘no-filter’ social media posts had fans desperate to know which skincare products she swears by.
Thankfully, the Alia Bhatt skincare routine video was not too far-fetched. This routine holds the secret to looking radiant and flawless despite daily makeup.

1. A Smart, Gentle, and Moisturising Cleanser
Now that is the classic Alia way to personify a facial cleanser! The actress is correct when she says that a ‘squeaky clean’ face is not a signifier of a properly cleansed one.
Among natural skincare products, it is important to choose a facial cleanser that is gentle and suitable for your skin type. It is best to opt for a cleanser that also maintains the skin’s pH balance, especially if yours is sensitive skin that needs special care.
Besides removing impurities from the skin, Femica vouches that a good cleanser must also help retain natural moisture for supple and smooth skin.
2. A Stubborn Toner That Scrapes off the Last Traces of Dirt
The second step in Alia Bhatt’s skincare routine involves a toner (a facial mist). Yes, Alia prefers to use the Byoma face mist as a toner to remove the minuscule dirt particles and impurities.
Product Description: A lightweight moisturizing toner that leaves skin supple, moisturized, and keeps ready to absorb the next product in your regimen. This toner is now supercharged with 3 ceramide complex which leaves skin supple and moisturized. It features panthenol, xylitol & sodium PCA, which acts as a humectant. Also formulated with sucrose, plant extracts like ginseng, lavender & oat making skin more even, healthier and smoother to touch.
How to use: For use in the AM & PM. To be sprayed evenly enough to thinly cover all over the face and neck. Do not use on wet skin. Do not rinse. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a physician. During daytime, follow up with a broad spec trum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater.
Benefits: Strengthens skin’s natural barrier, Hydrates & nourishes skin, Helps with all signs of ageing, Skin appears firmer & plumper.

While the mist is highly effective, acting as a natural barrier to impurities, it is not affordable for skincare. Since the product is not available in India, Femica recommends either a solid skin refiner or a deeply nourishing and hydrating toner, which work as good as Alia’s Byoma face mist.
3. The Goodness of Peptides
Before we elaborate on this, let’s answer the question – what are peptides in skincare? Peptides are considered to be amino acids that act as building blocks for proteins like elastin and collagen – two essential components of plump, radiant, and tight skin.
A lightweight, quick-absorbing, brightening gel serum that visibly plumps and hydrates to support a healthy skin.
It nourishes and improves the skins over all texture.
HOW TO USE: After morning or night cleansing, apply on your face with 1-2 pumps.
Massage over clean skin, concentrating on high points and dry areas.
You can also use it with your favourite foundation for a dewy, hydrated and more natural makeup look.
BENEFITS: Specially formulated blend of peptides, oils & antioxidants, helps to hydrate, brighten, and smooth skin for a healthy, dewy glow.
•Smooth, plump and firm appearance of skin with tripeptides that reinforce visible signs of firmness.

While Alia swears by Hailey Bieber’s revolutionary Rhode peptide-enriched glazing fluid, you can always opt for affordable skincare in the form of a multi-peptide serum. The latter will equally enrich your skin with the goodness of peptides.
4. A Barrier-Building Moisturiser Ideal for Skin Slugging
Fourth on the list of Alia Bhatt skincare routine is an effective moisturiser that is not only lightweight but also deeply hydrating and calming on the skin. But what is slugging in skincare?
It is a renowned skin moisturising technique in which a product (preferably a moisturiser) is slathered all over the face to leave behind a sheen and glow. The aim of this technique is to create a barrier that seals moisture (most ideal for normal to dry skin).
Product Description: Phyto Ceramides, a plant-derived lipid mixture consists of phospholipids and at least 10% sphingolipids and is easily able to penetrate the skin. It helps to create a barrier to prevent permeability. This locks moisture into your skin, which helps prevent dryness and irritation. It also helps protect your epidermis from environmental damage. Hyaluronic Acid helps reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles retaining moisture to the skin, creating a plumping effect. When the skin is protected and hydrated, increased skin cell production can take place, as the skin isn't busy fighting for hydration. This leads to smoother, plumper skin cells Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that may be effective at reducing UV damage in the skin. And vitamin E applied topically may help nourish and protect your skin from damage caused by free radicals.
How to Use: Apply this moisturizer on the face and neck after cleansing, toning, exfoliating, and after using your serum. For best results, use both day and night

FAQs
1. Are peptides in skincare worth it?
This is a common question among people new to the peptide-enriched skincare trend. Peptides are generally considered to be safe for the skin, vouched for causing fewer breakouts and making the skin firmer and more youthful. However, more research is due to their efficacy. The best way to use these amino acids is in the form of a serum.
2. Does diet play a role in skincare?
Yes! Dietary and lifestyle choices affect the skin (for better or for worse). It is essential to make exercise or meditation a part of everyday routine. Equally important is to consume skin-friendly foods like cold-pressed oils, fruits, dark chocolate, flaxseeds, pomegranates, eggs, and leafy greens, among others.
3. Which is the correct day and night-time skincare routine order?
The morning skincare routine involves cleansing, toning, serum, eye cream, moisturising, and sunscreen in the correct order. As for the evening, the routine should look somewhat like cleansing oil, followed by cleanser, toning, serum, eye cream, moisturising, and facial oiling. In all this, it is important to choose natural skincare products.
