Soniya Mehra, who was last seen in the forgettable Victoria No. 203, will soon resurface with her new film Basra. This pretty girl is blessed with lovely tresses and glowing skin. She shares her beauty secrets with CS:

The right diet
I believe that your skin needs nourishment from inside, so I eat a lot of salads and fruits on a daily basis. I have a shot of Aloe Vera juice every morning, which is great for the skin. Throughout the day, I munch on lots of strawberries, apples, oranges, pineapple, figs, gooseberries and watermelon.

Skin care regime
I cleanse, tone and moisturise my face twice a day. I exfoliate my skin once a week followed by a rich face mask. Also, twice a week I use face oil or a face balm at night to nourish my skin. I swear by Clarins products; they smell divine. I have used them since I was 16.

Battling sun tan
I use Lotus sun block in spf50 and I have a spf100 sun block that I picked up in France. Vaseline Healthy White is a good moisturiser to use if you have tanned. If I tan a lot, I use this homemade besan, dahi and lemon remedy my nani used to make for me while I grew up. She was always obsessive if I got tanned! I guess it's a Punjabi thing!u00a0

Less is more
I don't usually like facials as I have extremely sensitive skin and at times, facials have damaged my skin! I think I must have had about two or three my whole life. My mum hasn't had even one facial till date and her skin is flawless. I often use an orange peel on my face. It works magic when squeezed and rubbed around blackhead areas.

Tress stress
I use the Bumble and Bumble Cocoa shampoo and conditioner. And for my serum, I use Umberrto Gianni. They also have a hair moisturiser which you have to use on dry hair before bed time u2014 you wake up with silky hair! I also get trims every two months. I also try going for a treatment once a month or a head massage with almond oil.
