A daily massage with warm sesame or almond oil strengthens the skin, improves circulation, and locks in moisture. Enrich your oil with herbs like ashwagandha or brahmi for extra rejuvenation.
Swap chemical soaps for natural ubtans made from chickpea flour, turmeric, and rose water. They cleanse effectively without stripping the skin of its natural oils and leave it soft and glowing.
Apply a mask of honey, aloe vera, and amla once a week. Honey retains moisture, aloe vera soothes dryness, and amla brightens dull skin.
Ayurveda emphasizes beauty from the inside. Drink warm water with tulsi or cinnamon and include ghee, nuts, and sesame seeds in your diet to balance Vata and keep skin hydrated.
Facial steaming with neem or tulsi leaves helps open pores, clear impurities, and improve absorption of natural oils. Follow up with rose or sandalwood water for a cooling, soothing finish.
