Why Pre-Festival Skincare Matters

Raksha Bandhan is more than just a celebration of sibling bonds — it’s also a time when your skin deserves to shine just as brightly as your outfit. But Indian monsoon weather brings its own set of skin troubles: humidity, dullness, sweat, clogged pores, and unexpected breakouts.

To look and feel your best this festive season, it's important to start your skincare prep at least 5–7 days in advance. That way, your skin is fresh, hydrated, and glowing — ready for all the pictures, rituals, and makeup.

 

Monsoon Skin Concerns Before Rakhi

Here’s why your skin often misbehaves right before Indian festivals:

• Humidity leads to excess oil + dehydration
• Sweat and grime clog pores & cause acne
• Cloudy weather = dull, uneven skin tone
• Makeup melts due to sticky skin
  
  

This makes it essential to follow a hydration-focused skincare routine that balances oil, nourishes skin, and creates the perfect base for makeup.

 

Step-by-Step Pre-Festive Skincare Routine for Glowing Rakhi Skin

Here’s an expert-backed skincare routine using Perenne’s high-performance clean beauty products, perfect for Indian skin and weather:

 

Step 1: Cleanse with a Sulphate-Free Face Wash

Product: Perenne Hydration Booster Sulphate-Free Face Wash

Start your glow-up with a gentle yet effective cleanser. This face wash removes sweat, oil, and pollutants while keeping your skin barrier intact — thanks to ingredients like Swiss Glacier Water, Pentavitin®, and Centella Asiatica.

Benefits:

• Deeply cleanses without stripping
• Hydrates while washing
• Soothes redness and inflammation

 Best for: Oily, dry, sensitive, or combination skin — basically all skin types

 

Step 2: Tone with a Hydrating Gel-Based Formula

Product: Perenne Hydration Booster Water Gel Toner

After cleansing, use a hydrating toner that balances your skin’s pH and tightens pores. This lightweight gel toner contains Hyaluronic Acid, Glacial Minerals, and Aquaporin Boosters.

Benefits:

• Minimizes pores and shine
• Provides 72-hour moisture lock
• Refreshes and preps for serum
  
  

Best for: Post-cleansing hydration without stickiness

 

Step 3: Brighten with a Vitamin C Radiance Serum

Product: Perenne Glow Booster Radiance Serum

For that instant “festive glow”, apply this lightweight serum infused with Vitamin C (Kakadu Plum), Licorice, and Niacinamide. It helps reduce pigmentation, dullness, and uneven skin tone.

Benefits:

• Visibly improves skin brightness
• Reduces tan and dark spots
• Smooths and softens texture

Best for: Dull, pigmented, or uneven skin pre-festivities

 

Step 4: Hydrate & Protect with Lightweight Day Cream

Product: Perenne Glow Booster Radiance Day Cream

Seal in all your skincare with a non-greasy day cream enriched with Vitamin C, Alpha Arbutin, Hyaluronic Acid, Green Tea, Kiwi Extract, and Licorice Root. This cream hydrates deeply while controlling excess sebum — making it ideal under makeup.

Benefits:

• Non greasy, Lightweight, deeply hydrating
• Provides antioxidant protection
• Doubles as a soft makeup primer

Best for: Anyone looking for soft, dewy skin before applying makeup

 

Optional Add-On: Lock Makeup with a Glow-Boosting Mist

Product: Perenne Glow Booster Makeup Setting Spray

Finish your routine with this alcohol-free setting spray — perfect for keeping your makeup in place during Rakhi celebrations. It’s infused with Niacinamide, Chamomile, and Hyaluronic Acid.

Benefits:

• Sets makeup for hours
• Gives a fresh, dewy finish
• Hydrates and protects from pollution

Best for: Long-wear festive looks & selfie-ready skin

 

When Should You Start This Routine?

Start at least 5–7 days before Rakhi for best results. If you’re short on time, follow the CTM + Serum routine twice a day for a quick skin revival in just 3 days.

Pro tip: Exfoliate 1-2 times/week using the Perenne Glow Booster Radiance Scrub & Mask combo to remove dead skin and enhance product absorption and salon facial like glow at home.
