Shweta Bachchan has told the secret of her parents Amitabh and Jaya’s excellent skin. Shweta told that the Bachchan family has made mustard oil a part of their healthy lifestyle. Shweta says that I am very afraid of needles. I want to do so many things, but I’m so afraid of needles and pain that I don’t know if I can. So the only option I have is to work very hard on it (skin care). I also think that 80 percent of your skin depends on genetics and diet. My parents (Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan) have very good skin. Shweta said on Mira Kapoor’s YouTube series ‘Skin and Within’.
Mustard oil is beneficial for the skin
Shweta further says that I think the only similarity between them is mustard oil. My mom eats a lot of fish and everything. Bengali people use mustard oil. My father uses it (mustard oil) on his face and body. She never touches her face (has had cosmetic treatments and procedures), and I think she has great skin at 81 and 76.
