Keep fit & stay healthy, with Anupam from Ekdoteenbollyfitqueen

Anupam is a fitness instructor who has lived in many different countries and recently arrived in Vietnam. She is certified in Bolly-aerobics program, passionate dancer, and she created her own classes of Bollyfit dance in Saigon. Today she shares with us her tips for healthy skin and body.

“Hello Visitors,

I’m Anupam, a fitness enthusiast and health freak. 

My love for dance fitness started more as a need than as a profession. I was 33, living in Singapore and overweight after I had my 2 kids. Back in 2013, I started attending weekly dance fitness classes which soon became a way of living and also a profession eventually. 

I got certified for the Bolly-aerobics program which worked wonders for me and I could conduct corporate and private classes. Currently in Ho Chi Minh, I run my own Bollyfit dance classes 3-4 times per week. These classes are high intensity, fun, dance classes. 

Besides my love for my physical fitness, I do care a lot about my skin and diet. Everyday without fail I consume about 3-3.5 liters of water. This is over and above any smoothie/ fresh juices or coconut water I consume. I also ensure that fruits and vegetables are a part of my daily diet and I don’t eat too much packaged or sugary food. 

For my daily skin routine, I wash my face with a regular face wash. Followed by toning and moisturizing with natural products. I also ensure I remove make up before I go to bed (well most nights) and 3-4 times a week I use a night cream. I don’t go for facials however I do indulge in home made face packs with kitchen ingredients.

My favourite is cocoa powder milk and honey 😀. I share with you the recipe, by bespotted.org :

• Ingredients : 1 teaspoon honey, 2 teaspoons milk, 1 teaspoon cocoa powder.
• Instructions : First mix the honey and milk. Add just enough cocoa to get the right consistency – no too thick and not too runny. Mix everything well. Apply the mask to a clean face and leave it on for 15 – 20 minutes. Wash it off and apply an anti-aging face cream.

Enjoy!!”
