Simple yet effective skin tips

I have never been skeptical about the healing capabilities of Ayurveda but I feel science should have given more importance to this field and specially the Indian community. However things have changed and a lot of more research is being conducted in this field. I reckon that at present Ayurveda may not be the best solution for some of the rare diseases; it does have some good hold over general health problems. In particular, skin related solutions provided by Ayurveda are worth mentioning. For example VICCO Turmeric Cream is one such cure to dull and oily skins.

1. Drink a lot of water: I am sure you must have observed that many of the skin problems occur when your stomach is not healthy or you have had something which is giving trouble to your digestive system. These small problems often manifest in facial aberrations. Drinking a lot of water ensures that you minimize such digestive issues. Of course, there is no comparison to eating only healthy and fresh food. Fruits like watermelon help a lot in maintaining good amount of fluid in our body which one should never avoid.

2. Splash water every 3-4 hours: In this fast paced life, our face has to go through a lot of dirt. The dirt often sticks to the skin and if not cleaned regularly only results in long term skin issues. The idea is to splash water whenever and wherever there is opportunity to do so. To make it easy one can think of doing the same after every meal when one goes to the washroom for cleaning the hands.

3. Avoid soaps: We all have studied during our science classes how soaps are prepared using soft alkali etc. It isn’t best idea to apply soap on your face. If there are soaps with moisturizers, it may be safer to apply. But prolonged exposure to these harmful materials only makes your skin rough. I’d recommend avoiding soaps as much as one can.

4. Apply Sunscreen lotion before going out: Getting tanned might be a good thing for the westerners who lack right amount of melanin under their skin. But hey we don’t need to be further tanned. Fortunately our melanin content is good enough that not only prevent us from severe skin diseases like skin cancer but also from skin spots. Ever wondered why those rich kids have always better skin than a normal middle class child? If you spend all your time inside AC cabins the exposure to sun is bound to be minimal. Of course a normal person doesn’t have that luxury. So it’s always a good idea to apply sunscreen lotion before going under the sun.
