Choose Ayurvedic goodness this festive season

The festivals come in October-November, and the indulgence in food and looking at your best increases drastically. Insufficient sleep, oily food, and makeup for hours result in skin problems like pimples and dryness.

The best natural way to maintain clear skin is by trusting the goodness of Ayurveda, which helps in embracing better lifestyle habits with its natural benefits. For holistic solutions to all skin troubles, the Ayurvedic tips will enhance the beauty inside out.

Enclosed are a few Ayurvedic tips and purifying habits that you can incorporate into your skincare routine.

Indulge in some hot oil massages for your skin. Massaging the skin with herbal oils relaxes the muscles and tissues and boosts blood flow. It also keeps dry skin at bay. For best results, massage your skin with oil just before hitting the bed so that it gets enough time to rejuvenate itself and soak in the goodness of the oil. You may try self-massage or visit a spa for an oil massage.

Both sandalwood and turmeric are revered in Ayurveda for their antibacterial properties. Both are extensively used in ayurvedic skincare too. They kill the acne-causing bacteria, clear the skin, tighten the pores, and prevent inflammation.

Saffron or Kesar is among the most expensive spices in the world. It is a time-tested spice that nurtures your skin and keeps it radiant and blemish-free. Aloe vera soothes your skin and reduces inflammation.
