 Best Ayurvedic Skin Care Tips

By Vedantam Ayurveda

Nestled in the heart of Ghaziabad—Sumedha Tower, RDC Block 1, P & T Colony, Raj Nagar—Vedantam Ayurveda, under the guidance of Dr. Bansal, has spent over two decades blending age-old Ayurvedic wisdom with modern sensibilities to offer holistic skin care that nurtures body, mind, and spirit

 Here’s a curated guide to Ayurvedic skin care, combining centuries of tradition with contemporary relevance.

1. Understand and Honor Your Skin’s Dosha

Ayurveda teaches that every individual’s skin reflects their unique balance of the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Identifying your skin’s dominant dosha is the fundamental step toward a personalized regimen

Vata skin: thin, dry, prone to roughness and premature wrinkles.

Pitta skin: warm, oily, sensitive, and prone to redness or inflammation.

Kapha skin: thick, supple, and often more resilient—but may stagnate or be prone to oiliness.

2. Cleanse Mindfully with Natural Ingredients

Use gentle, natural cleansers rather than harsh chemicals. For Vata, opt for rose water blends; for Pitta, soothing aloe vera mixes; and for Kapha, oil-based cleansers like sesame or coconut—each chosen to harmonize the dosha

3. Natural Masks Tailored to Doshas

Crafting your own mask can be both effective and soothing:

Vata Mask

1 tbsp chickpea (besan) flour

Pinch of turmeric

¼ cup rose water or yogurt

Apply, leave for 10–15 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water and follow with an oil-based moisturizer

Pitta Mask

¼ cup aloe vera gel

A few drops of rose water

Apply on a cotton ball, layer on skin for 10–15 minutes, rinse, and moisturize with a cooling product like geranium oil

Kapha Masks

Option 1: Honey + Turmeric—mix, leave on for 10 minutes, rinse.

Option 2: Multani Mitti (Fuller’s Earth) with water—apply for 10–15 minutes and rinse

4. Nourish Through Abhyanga (Oil Massage)

Part of the Ayurvedic daily routine (Dinacharya), Abhyanga—a full-body warm oil massage—promotes detox, nourishes tissues (dhatus), balances disruptions in skin, and soothes both body and mind

 Choose dosha-appropriate herbal oils, such as sesame for Vata, cooling hibiscus or aloe-based blends for Pitta, and lighter safflower or jojoba for Kapha.

5. Detox Internal Systems for Radiant Skin

True glow originates within. Start your day with warm water to ignite digestion. For inner cleansing, Ayurvedic virechana therapies—such as Triphala, Bhumyamalaki, or Isabgol—encourage regular detoxification and clearer, more vibrant skin. Consult your Ayurvedic practitioner to determine what suits you best

6. Integrate Rejuvenating Herbs

Ayurveda honors certain herbs for their anti-aging and skin-nourishing properties—ideal as herbal tonics, dietary additions, or topical formulations:

Ashwagandha: stress-relief and antioxidant protection

Amalaki (Amla): rich in Vitamin C, supports collagen and skin elasticity

Brahmi: calms the mind and supports overall vitality

Guduchi (Giloy): supports immunity and detox

Shatavari: enhances skin hydration and hormonal balance

Incorporate them with guidance from a qualified Ayurvedic specialist.

7. Add Modern Ayurvedic Boosters

Oil pulling—swishing coconut, sesame, or sunflower oil in the mouth—may support oral health and contribute to clearer, firmer skin through detoxification

The Times of India

Chebula (Terminalia chebula), used topically, is packed with antioxidants; it helps moisturize skin, reduce inflammation, support collagen production, and minimize fine lines and uneven tone—great as a morning prep before SPF application

8. Use Skincare as Ritual, Not Chore

Adopt skincare as a mindful, loving ritual—saffron, turmeric, and ashwagandha-based products offer more than beauty: they connect you to heritage, self-care, and intention

InStyle

 Embrace the process.

9. Protect and Respect Your Skin

Even in Ayurveda, protecting from sun exposure is vital: UV rays lead to premature aging, pigmentation, and skin damage. Use appropriate sun protection (natural or mineral-based) as an essential layer in your regimen

10. Prioritize Safety and Purity

Ayurveda values natural and thoughtful preparation, but be mindful—some formulations, especially those involving heavy metals or improperly processed compounds, may pose risks
