How does Ayurveda work for beauty and skin care?
I have formulated a number of Ayurvedic products and preparations for internal consumption as well as for external application, which are beneficial for both men and women in promoting radiance in the skin, hair and nails. For dry skin, I have preparations which help to increase the production of mucilaginous substances in the body, balance the lubricants of the skin, and detoxify the internal channels, resulting in softer more supple skin. Vata balancing oils are also helpful for dry skin. According to the Ayurvedic concept, dry skin conditions are due to vata imbalance in the digestive tract. So all the internal preparations given are primarily for balancing vata. Often your beauty is enhanced through the taking of Ayurvedic preparations which were prescribed for another condition but have an indirect effect on the skin, hair and nails.
