It takes a lot of efforts to maintain a great skin. Some have it naturally and some have it through sheer dash of cosmetics. Well, the definition of beauty is different from individual to individual, however, actress Tabu who epitomizes beauty herself, feels that Hema Malini is the eternal beauty of Bollywood.
Being the brand ambassador of a skincare brand Vaseline, Tabu, who believes that confidence comes from having a great skin, said to IANS, “Fortunately, and unfortunately for my profession, I don’t have a choice but to be camera-ready and for that, I think confidence comes from having great skin and that comes from combination of things. My mother put a lot of importance on us eating right as kids. She made sure we ate plenty of fruits, and greens. Now, I ensure that I follow the most important steps for skincare which includes eating healthy, staying hydrated, exercising regularly and most importantly, moisturisation.”
Talking about the importance of diet and lifestyle in maintaining a great skin, Tabu said, “I believe that you need to enjoy a healthy and happy lifestyle and for this, food and sleeping habits play a very important role. Drinking enough water or fluids and eating right is important to take care of your skin and health. I exercise regularly and particularly enjoy long walks and meditation to maintain a positive attitude, I do not believe in fad diets, they do not help you in the long term and cause more harm than good when undertaken without the right guidance.”
Adding further, the actress praised Hema Malini for her beauty by stating, “Hands down, it’s Hema Maliniji. She is the ultimate beauty and every time I meet her, I cannot stop staring. Her skin is always glowing.”
Tabu also shared her beauty and skincare secrets, she said, “I don’t enjoy facials or chemical body scrubs. I prefer making my own body scrubs. I use sea salt and petroleum jelly as a pre-bath exfoliator. I am a big believer that skin is a reflection of one’s health and hence it should not be taken for granted.”
