Step into Padma Lakshmi's Nighttime Skincare Routine

Skin care
Written By Jeremy Lindy

In an enlightening video shared by Harper's BAZAAR, culinary expert and television host Padma Lakshmi unveils her nighttime skincare routine, a ritual that combines simplicity with effective skincare practices. Padma begins her routine by removing her makeup using Neutrogena face wipes, praised for their accessibility and effectiveness. This step ensures she removes all traces of makeup, setting the stage for a deeper cleanse.

Following the initial makeup removal, Padma opts for the Tracy Martin Amla purifying cleanser, which she finds light and refreshing. This product not only cleanses but also elevates her mood, a testament to its aromatic and sensory benefits. After cleansing, she applies Christine Chin’s hydrating toner generously, which prepares her skin for the next steps of moisturization and treatment.

The heart of her routine features several targeted products aimed at addressing specific concerns such as hydration, under-eye care, and skin brightness. She uses Peter Thomas Roth's water drench moisturizer enriched with hyaluronic acid for deep hydration and a product from Edom, designed to brighten the skin and reduce hyperpigmentation, particularly relevant as she discusses the natural changes her skin has undergone. Padma concludes her routine with a spritz of Beauty Pie’s Uber Youth, leaving her skin refreshed and ready for a good night's sleep. Through this detailed regimen, Padma shares how a combination of thorough cleansing, strategic hydration, and targeted treatments helps maintain her radiant complexion.
