5 Simple Ayurvedic Tips for Skin & Hair Care in Monsoon

Increase in humidity in the monsoon months lead to skin diseases and hair problems. In addition to frizzy hair and scalp problems, diseases like Dermatitis, Urticaria, Ringworm, Herpes and Eczema become very common. Here are 5 tips that will help you keep your skin and hair beautiful in monsoon.

Avoid getting wet

Getting a little wet or sometimes getting drenched is not uncommon when you are outdoors during the rainy season. Damp skin is a breeding ground for fungal infections. Also, damp hair becomes a risk for scalp infections and hair fall. Make use of an umbrella and immediately dry yourself if you get wet.

Eat fresh!

Eat fresh and unprocessed food to keep your body and your skin functioning at an optimum level. Don't rely on packed, refrigerated and processed food. Instead of ordering pizzas, burgers or feasting on chips, relish some fresh homemade food. Eat a lot of fruits and green vegetables.

Use natural skin and hair care products

Ayurveda advises that you should always apply products on your hair and skin that you can eat. Anything that has a lot of chemicals in it is unnatural and is very likely to give you short term solution, but cause long term damage. For acne and pimples, cleanse your face with Jiva Rose Water or Jiva Citrus Lotion and apply cooling Cucumber Cream. For frizzy hair, use Jiva Black Pearl Shampoo for voluminous and manageable hair.

Aloe Vera Juice and Gel

Aloe Vera is very beneficial for the skin and hair because it purifies the blood. You can apply Aloe gel on your skin after cleaning it with a good face wash. Jiva Aloe Mint Face Wash is ideal for this. Drink two or three tablespoons Aloe vera juice on an empty stomach every day. It has anti-aging, anti-tanning, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties and it will prevent skin and hair problems.

Keep your bowels clear

A clean bowel movement is imperative for a healthy skin and hair. Take Triphala powder at bed time every night, with warm water or milk and include prunes, figs and raisins in your diet.
