Ayurveda Tips for Face

Some ayurvedic beauty tips given below.

A healthy body and healthy mind should be the foundation on which the external beauty is built.  All Ayurveda and Siddha texts stress the importance of applying good quantity of oil on head as well as all over the body. Twice a week minimum would be fine. A good massage followed by a warm bath can relax you and your skin. (Do not expose yourself to too much of direct sunlight on those days).

Maghizham flower powder  250 gm
Kichili kizhangu rhizome powder 125 gm
kasthuri manjal powder 125 gm
korai kizhangu powder 150 gm
Malaysian sandalwood powder 150 gm
Rose essense 20 oz.

This preparation can be used to remove facial blemishes. These are available at the local herbal stores.

Clean and the powders and dry them in sunlight. Once dried, again grind them to a fine powder. Mix all the powder together. Now using a pestle and mortar or something similar, make a fine thick paste by adding rose essense as needed. Make tablet like pellets (a size of a small marble) of this paste and dry them in shade. Once dried, store them in a bottle in a cool place.

Take a pellet and using milk make a paste. Apply a thin layer of this paste on your face. Bathe after half an hour. This improves the facial complexion and removes all blemishes.

Thikthaka grutham 10 ml morning and evening before food is recommended. Apply Eladhi coconut oil on black spots on face using a piece of cotton. Wash it off the next day morning. Instilling two drops of kumkumadhi thailam into your nose before sleep is also good.
