Janhvi Kapoor had also reminisced her first makeup memory, which was a special moment with her mother, Sridevi.

Years later, Janhvi had revealed that she had learnt an important skincare tip that her mother vouched for too, "After you work out, because your pores are open, put ice or cold water on your face to close the pores back again."
Even in August 2018 at the Vogue Beauty Awards, Janhvi Kapoor had revealed the important skincare and haircare tricks that she had gleaned from Sridevi during her childhood, like oiling her strands and using food as face masks. She was then quoted as saying, "Mom would make our hair oil at home with dried flowers and amla, and she'd make sure she gave me and Khushi an oil massage every three days. Whatever leftover [fruit] we had from breakfast, we'd put on our face." Continuing the same thing now, Janhvi had added, "I use honey, malai, whatever I have available."
