Khushbu Sundar Shares Routine as Dermatologist Urges Skin-Type Caution
Khushbu Sundar shared some things she does for her skin each morning.
She said she sometimes uses milk, saffron water, coconut oil or almond oil.
A skin doctor says that natural ingredients do not work well for everyone.
Raw milk could contain germs, and some oils may clog pores.
Saffron water has little scientific evidence showing it changes how skin looks.
Rubbing the skin too hard can also irritate it.
The doctor recommends trying a small patch first and using gentle skincare and sunscreen.
Garima Goyal said caring for yourself can go together with accepting that skin changes as people get older.
Khushbu Sundar said she wakes between 4:30 and 5 a.m. and applies raw milk, saffron-infused water, coconut oil or almond oil to her face.
She told Maalai Malar she follows the skincare practices daily for about half an hour.
Dermatologist Dr Shareefa Chause cautioned that raw milk may contain microorganisms and may not suit sensitive or acne-prone skin.
Chause said oils may clog pores for some people, saffron water has limited evidence for changing appearance, and vigorous massage can irritate skin.
She recommended patch testing and said gentle cleansing, moisturising and broad-spectrum sunscreen are foundational; Garima Goyal also emphasized sustainable habits and accepting natural ageing.

Quotes
Dr Shareefa Chause
Dermatologist at Dr Shareefa Skin Care Clinic, Mumbai
“I am an early riser. I wake up by 4.30 am-5 am. I make tea for everyone at home in the morning. So, I put raw milk on my face. Sometimes, I use saffron strands and use the water on my face. Sometimes, I just massage with coconut oil or almond oil…depending on my mood. I do it every day for half an hour or so.”
