Rashmika Mandanna’s earliest memories of skincare 

Rashmika Mandanna grew up watching her mother’s beauty routine. “She had this simple, natural approach to taking care of her skin, and I remember being fascinated by it. One thing that stands out is her use of sandalwood—she’d mix sandalwood powder with a little water or rose water to make a paste and apply it as a cooling mask. She always said it was great for soothing the skin and keeping it clear.”
