With its chic dĂ©cor and promises of premium service without the premium price tag, V Luxe is already the talk of the town.

4 Steps to have Summer Ready Skin


Hello Allys,

Hope you all are keeping well this Summer. The temperatures in Goa has already started shooting up and considering the fact that we are on the 1st day of the May month. All I can say, May and Summer both have decided to come hand in hand to say “Hello” to us!

Considering the rising temperature in the state, all you need to do is take very good care of yourself. And this week, I have decided to give you’ll quick tips about how to keep your skin care routine right specially during the summers.

So, Let’s begin :

1. Use a Sunscreen Lotion – I know this tip everyone knows but this is the most important weapon against the Sun’s Harsh rays. And this is something, several people avoid. During the Summers, the UV rays are much higher and so using Sunscreen is a must. Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of about 30 is advisable for Indian Summers. So choose your sunscreen wisely. One more important thing to be noted is that several people apply sunscreen and instantly get in contact with the sun. Well, this shouldn’t be done, you should apply Sunscreen about 20 – 30 minutes before stepping outside. So that your sunscreen blends with your skin. Once you apply the sunscreen the protection remains for 4-5 hours, after which one needs to re apply the sunscreen. Also in case you are having water activities on your list, use a waterproof sunscreen for protection of your skin.

2. Follow Your Daily Routine Diligently – Every Morning begin the day by cleaning your face using A Face Wash, in case you get a lot of Acne Problem use Himalayas Neem Face Wash as that product is best for acne pimples and provide instant results. Following which use a Good Moisturizer with SPF – that will moisturise your skin all day. And Every Night, no matter how tired you are make sure you take off all your make up of your face and then only hit the bed. There are several make up removers in the market and mostly it is advised try to use only the same brand as the make up items that you use. Example, suppose you use Lakme Foundation then use Lakme Absolute Bi Phased Make Up Remover as that works well with your skin. And before going to bed make sure, you wash your Face with a Face Wash.

3. You are what you eat – Summer is the time you need to stay hydrated and for that drinking water like lots and lots of water is a must. Try to avoid fast food, fatty and oily food as that results in acne outburst. Also, during summer try and have fresh juices, fruits vegetables well that will keep you hydrated. Simultaneously try to include Vitamin C in your diet as that will keep your skin blemish free.

4. Apply Fruit Face Pack – Use a fruit pack on your face atleast weekly once. Just how eating is improves your health, applying fruit face pack rejuvenates your face. And now, thanks to companies face pack are readily available at stores. Choose one that contains more of milk as the moisturization clears excessive oil production and greasiness on your skin.

Hopefully these will be useful for your summers! If you have any more tips, ideas suggest them in comments below! Have a Fruitful Summer!

Top 7 Home Remedies To Permanently Remove Dark Circles Under Eyes


Hello My Ally,

Hope you all are doing fine. Today’s Tuesday Tip is little different then the rest for several reasons! Recently, I was interacting, with a couple of my friends and all what I noticed was most of them have dark circles. After interacting with them, I got to learn lack of proper sleep, stress, skin irritation, exposure to the sun seems to be major reasons for the same. So thinking about this, I thought the need of the hour at the moment is to write something that will solve this problem. Are you too facing a similar problem? Do you too have dark circles under your eyes.?

Well, don’t worry like it is often said with every problem there is a solution. And Hey! When I am here, what’s the fear? And I completely believe that home-made and natural remedies are the best to solve any problem.

So to get rid from the dark circles under your eyes, Here are the Top 7 tips to cure Dark Circles under Eyes

1. Milk

This ingredient is one of the most commonly found items at home. Be it for tea or coffee or just may be for chocolate drinks like Bournvita, Horlicks and so on. Milk is treated almost like a necessity at home and has multiple uses. Well, coming to my topic for the day, this item can also be used for permanently curing of your dark circles. For the remedy, all you have to do is take bowl of cold milk and cotton (make it in the shape of a ball). Dip the cotton ball in the bowl of milk and place the same on your eyes, covering the affected area completely for about 15 minutes after which the same can be washed with regular water. The same exercise has to be done for every day for almost two weeks to receive results. The idea of using the milk is, Milk is rich in lactic acid which works towards making the skin –  smooth, thick and firm, diminishing wrinkles and fine line.

2. Tomato

Another commonly found item in your kitchen – Tomato. Yes Tomato is useful because it contains lycopene, a phytochemical which protects the skin from any kind of damage. All you need to get started is a teaspoon of Tomato Juice and Lemon Juice. Mix the two in a container and apply the same on the affected area and rinse with cold water after keeping the same for about 10 minutes. This should be done atleast twice a day for approximately for two to three weeks. If you have a sensitive skin, use rose water with the mixture before applying to the affected area under your eyes.

3. Cucumber

The most commonly used products to relax. All you need a fresh cucumber to be cut in thick round slices and place the same for refridgerating for about 30 minutes. Then take two slices and place the same on the affected area covering the same properly. And Sit back and relax for next 10 minutes and wash your eyes with cold water. Do the same for two times in a day for roughly a week and see the difference yourself.

4. Coconut Oil

The next remedy is using virgin coconut oil, Pat the oil on the skin under your eyes and massage the same gently in clock and anti- clockwise motions a few times and leave the same on for a night. Repeat the same exercise every night before the bed. The best part about using this oil is that it nourishes and moisturises your skin’s health, just like it would do to your hair, this indeed reduces dark circles gradually.

5. Turmeric 

Turmeric as it is known to be used in face packs and creams for their skin brightening properties. In this remedy take 1/4 Turmeric teaspoon and mix the same with 1 almond oil. Massage the same under affected area and leave the same for 20 minutes and wash the same either with water or wipe it off with a  soft tissue  for best results use it thrice a week.

6. Honey

The Perfect Skin Diet is provided by Honey. All you have to do is apply a thin layer of organic honey under the affected area and leave the same for 15 -20 minutes and the same hsa to be repeated once a day, almost every day.

7. Rose Water

All You need is Rose Water, 2 Cotton Balls. Take the same cotton balls and soak the same in the rose water and place them under your eyes and leave the same on for 15 minutes and Wash with cold water. Do the same daily for four weeks for best results.
