As summer grows stronger, so does the effect of the sun on our skin. Extreme temperatures, lack of hydration, and sun exposure can cause skin inflammation, blemishes, and early signs of aging. Ayurveda, drawing on its ancient knowledge, provides a natural and efficient method for achieving radiant, balanced skin throughout the summer season.
At Kairali – The Ayurvedic Healing Village, a leading health retreat in Kerala, we hold that authentic skincare starts with internal harmony. Here are a few Ayurvedic summer skincare suggestions to ensure you glow from the inside out.
1. Balance Pitta Dosha
Summer is ruled by the Pitta dosha, linked to fire and warmth. An excess of Pitta may lead to inflammation, breakouts, and heightened sensitivity. To harmonize Pitta:
- Opt for refreshing foods such as cucumbers, melons, mint, coconut water, and leafy vegetables.
- Steer clear of spicy, greasy, and fried dishes.
- Consume herbal teas such as coriander, fennel, and rose.
2. Hydrate with Herbal Teas
Stay hydrated with Ayurvedic herbal infusions that calm and refresh the body. At our Ayurvedic retreat in India, we provide personalized herbal mixtures that enhance skin moisture and aid in detoxification.
3. Use Natural Cooling Packs
Face packs made from sandalwood, multani mitti (fuller’s earth), and rose water help cool and cleanse the skin. Apply once or twice a week to soothe sunburn and remove excess oil.
4. Daily Abhyanga (Self-Massage)
Abhyanga with oils like coconut or Kairali’s Ayurvedic herbal oils nourishes the skin, enhances circulation, and removes toxins. A morning massage followed by a lukewarm bath keeps the skin supple and calm.
5. Practice Early Morning Yoga and Pranayama
At our best Ayurvedic retreat in Kerala, mornings begin with yoga and pranayama to calm the mind and regulate internal heat. Practices like pranayama are particularly beneficial in the summer.
6. Opt for Lightweight Ayurvedic Moisturizers
Choose herbal moisturizers made from aloe vera or rose to maintain hydration without clogging pores. Kairali’s skincare range offers Ayurvedic formulations suitable for sensitive summer skin.
