Skin care
It is rightly said that beauty is not only skin deep but it is inside out. The outer layer of skin consists of dead skin cells embedded in body oils generated by underlying living skin cells. These natural body oils and dead skin cells have the capacity to hold water that keeps the skin smooth and soft. Skin is an integral body cleaning organ. Outer layer of skin functions as protective layer and if it doesn�t function, small cracks occur and you lose your natural moisture which exposes your underlying cells. This results in direct attack by various allergies, germs and irritating substances to your skin. Unnatural diet we take shows on the skin, by our skin that it is not nourishing.
Our skin has the potential to excrete wastes from body through sweating. Skin should be kept free from skin care products made with synthetic chemicals as these products leave a coating on the skin, which block the excretion of waste from the skin. This results in stoppage of natural elimination of waste from the skin that in turn shows in the form of various skin diseases. Therefore coating of artificial chemical filled creams, lotions, bath gels, soaps and all other cosmetics should not be applied on the skin.
People have started exploring alternate options to maintain a healthy skin. In ayurveda terms a good skin is a reflection of a healthy digestive system. Skin disorders such as acne, psoriasis, itching, eczema, redness and rashes take place because of indigestion, constipation and unhealthy food habits.
The absence of even one nutrient
required by the skin can create a medical condition
for whole system. Ageing symptoms become visible
at a very early age. To get rid of skin problems,
people have started using natural skin care products.
These products do not contain any artificial chemicals,
colours or additives. Regular use of natural herbs
keeps your skin glowing and beautiful. Wear cotton
clothes as it helps the skin to breathe easily. |
