Taapsee:
(Laughs) Thank you, Ananya! That's quite an introduction. I hope I can live up to it.
Ananya:
Oh, you always do! Taapsee, your skin has this natural glow that's hard to miss. Fans are eager to know—what's your secret?
Taapsee:
Honestly, it's pretty simple. I believe in keeping things minimal and natural. One of my go-to skincare hacks is using tomato peels. It's fantastic for tan removal, especially after long outdoor shoots. (telegraphindia.com)
Segment 1: The Tomato Peel Trick
Ananya:
Tomato peels? That's intriguing! How do you incorporate them into your routine?
Taapsee:
After a long day under the sun, I take the peel of a tomato and gently rub it over my face. I let the juice sit for about 10-15 minutes before rinsing it off with lukewarm water. It's a natural way to combat tanning and gives my skin a fresh feel.
Ananya:
That's such a simple yet effective method. Have you always been inclined towards natural remedies?
Taapsee:
Absolutely. I prefer using natural and organic products for my skin. I believe in minimalism and simplicity when it comes to skincare. (telegraphindia.com)
Segment 2: Skincare Amidst Stardom
Ananya:
Being in the limelight means constant exposure to makeup and harsh lights. How do you manage to keep your skin healthy amidst such demands?
Taapsee:
It's almost like a torture for the skin to be in this profession. I make sure my skin is well-hydrated, and I drink a lot of water to keep it healthy from the inside. I also avoid as much fried oily food as I can—especially in summer. (indianexpress.com)
Ananya:
That makes sense. Hydration is key. Do you have a specific skincare routine you follow daily?
Taapsee:
Yes, my routine is quite simple but detailed, involving cleansing, moisturizing, and hydrating. I respect my body and my skin. So I remove my makeup at the end of my day, and I keep smiling, always. (theweekendleader.com)
Segment 3: The Impact of Natural Remedies
Ananya:
Returning to your tomato peel hack, have you noticed a significant difference since incorporating it?
Taapsee:
Definitely. After long outdoor shoots, my skin tends to tan easily. Using tomato peels has helped in reducing the tan and keeping my skin even-toned. It's a simple remedy, but it works wonders.
Ananya:
It's amazing how something so simple can be so effective. Have you shared this hack with others in the industry?
Taapsee:
Yes, many times. In fact, during the shoot of Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba, my co-stars were curious about my skincare routine. When I mentioned tomato peels, they were surprised at how basic it was. But sometimes, the simplest solutions are the best.
Segment 4: Beyond Skincare
Ananya:
Skincare is just one aspect of self-care. How do you ensure overall well-being amidst a hectic schedule?
Taapsee:
I believe in holistic well-being. Apart from skincare, I focus on staying hydrated, eating a balanced diet, and ensuring I get enough sleep. I also make time for activities I enjoy, like playing squash, which helps me stay fit and relieves stress.
Ananya:
That's a well-rounded approach. Speaking of stress, how do you manage it, especially with the pressures of the industry?
Taapsee:
I try to keep a positive mindset and not let external factors affect me too much. Engaging in activities I love, spending time with family and friends, and practicing mindfulness help me stay grounded.
Segment 5: Advice for Listeners
Ananya:
For our listeners who look up to you, what advice would you give regarding skincare and self-care?

Keep it simple and natural. Listen to your skin and body. Stay hydrated, eat well, and ensure you get enough rest. And remember, confidence and a positive attitude are the best beauty enhancers.
