Before Charithra Chandran slathers on a face full of makeup, she takes care of her skin first. Looking for your own regimen? Here is the perfect order to follow for your skincare routine.
In her Vogue tutorial, Chandran starts by washing her face with cleanser, confessing that she’s usually really rough on her skin. “My makeup and hair stylist on ‘Bridgerton’ kept telling me ‘be gentle, be gentle,'” she shared. After applying some toner, Chandran follows another beauty tip disclosed to her by her “Bridgerton” makeup artist — eye patches. The British-Indian actress revealed that she often had to be in the makeup chair by 4:35 a.m. on the set of “Bridgerton.” The eye patches were a great way to mask the fatigue she felt at the end of a long day of filming. “We needed all the help we could get,” she admitted jokingly.
To wrap up her skin-care routine, Chandran applies moisturizer and lip balm, and tweezes any stray eyebrow or mustache hairs. The actress revealed that she usually prefers to take care of her eyebrows herself rather than get them done professionally. “I’m very protective over them,” Chandran shared.
When it comes to beauty, Chandran pulls from both her British and Indian roots. In an interview with Allure, the actress revealed that she still uses coconut oil in her hair once a week — a tip that she learned from her grandmother at a young age.
