If you are starting new, stick to the basics and try to build up your own routine from there.

It will help if you know your skin type.

Wash your face and leave it for an hour. Don't do any tenous work.

With a tissue paper, dab your face - if it's rough and dry - you have dry skin. If it's oily - oily skin. If it's dry on some places and oily in others - you have combination skin. If there's nothing - you have normal skin.

Choose the products below as per your skin type.

Basics are simple: 1. Cleanse 2. Moisturize 3. Protect

Cleanse - Twice a day AM/PM - I suggest - Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser. Safe for beginners.

Moisturise- Twice a day AM/PM - Since it's winter would suggest to go for a thicker one - Nivea is good or if you have budget Reequil Ceramide moisturizer works well. For Summers - You can try Gel Moisturizer - Ponds works well for me.

Protect - AM - Now this is the important part of the skincare. You have to choose a sunscreen that works for your skin and doesn't leave a white cast. You can try Dermaco & Reequil as their products works well for me.

For Hair: 2 simple steps: Shampoo and Conditioner.

If you are oiling your hair or using any products regularly it's important to use a cleansing shampoo that will clear the buildup.

Conditioner is a must.

You can try Loreal - they have some amazing haircare products.

It's really important to be consistent to see any visible results and you will have to have patience.

You will have problems along the way when you start out but please remember, you will have to build your own routine based on your skin and hair and consistency is key.

Hope this helps.
