The dryness and flakiness you’re experiencing sounds like a possible imbalance in your dosha, particularly vata, which can affect skin hydration. While SNA Laakshaadi Oil is traditionally used to promote skin health through its cooling and soothing properties, it interacts differently based on individual constitutions and current imbalances.
For applying SNA Laakshaadi Oil, continue using it every other day as you have been. Make sure to warm the oil slightly before application — this helps enhance its absorption into the skin. Gently massage it into your scalp and problem areas on the face, leaving it on for at least 30 minutes. When it comes to washing it out, use a mild, herbal shampoo free from synthetic additives to avoid irritation. After washing, ensure you thoroughly rinse out all residues which can help prevent those irritating bumps around your eyebrows.
The adjustment of skin balance with SNA Laakshaadi Oil can vary from person to person, and while some improvements might be noticeable in a couple of weeks, it may take up to 6-8 weeks for more significant changes. If your skin still feels dry after using the oil, it may be worth checking your overall hydration level and diet, as internal hydration is key.
Consider incorporating more hydrating foods such as cucumbers, avocados, and coconut water, which help soothe vata imbalance. Pay attention to your daily stress levels too, as stress can exacerbate dryness and flakiness on the skin.
If these suggestions don’t help after some consistent application, it may be worth consulting with a Siddha or Ayurvedic doctor to tailor solutions specifically to your body constitution. Rapid changes or new symptoms should always be checked directly with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions.
