Further in the interview, Sonam Kapoor opened up on her biggest do's and don'ts when it comes to skincare during pregnancy. The mommy-to-be mentioned that since all the products are not good for a mother's skin, so the pregnant ladies should consult their dermatologist first. Talking about the same, she said:
"Always check with your dermatologist on the safety and efficacy of products as during pregnancy, not all products are safe for the mother's skin. Invest in a good vitamin C serum. Always read the product labels and ensure that the ingredients mentioned are safe and toxin-free. Less is more. Never skip sunblock. Do not go to sleep without cleaning the face and following it up with a hydrating regime."
