Healthy lifestyle is a good habit to care healthy skin.

 Ayurvedic skin care routine focuses on balancing the whole body and supporting the digestive system with a healthy diet while treating each individual according to her specific dosha.



Ayurvedic skin care treatments are based on skin type.

According to Ayurveda, a person’s skin type is based on the three doshas. These are bioenergetic or life forces that make up the constitution of the body and mind. They are:

vata (wind) pitta (fire) kapha (water and earth)



VATA

A vata dominant person has dry and rough skin that tends to wrinkle if not moisturized regularly. Vata type skin has fewer fat deposits and needs more moisturizing, both externally and internally, recommends using oil-based moisturizers on the skin and consuming warm spices like ginger. According to AYURVEDA ashwagandha, an ancient Indian herb, may reduce skin dryness when added to a face mask.

PITTA



People with high pitta tend to have oily skin that’s prone to acne and rosacea. This type of skin needs more cooling elements like aloe vera, turmeric (which is anti-inflammatory), and sandalwood (which reduces pimples and redness)

KAPHA

Kapha skin tends to be cold and oily, and it may be prone to pimples, whiteheads, and water retention. recommends dry brushing to remove obstructions, stimulate the lymphatic system, and exfoliate. suggested avoiding oil-based creams and applying face masks regularly.

These can be used for a general skin care routine-

sesame oil is recommended for all doshas, and almond oil is recommended for vata and pitta skin types. Simply massage the oil into the skin in a circular motion.
