Balancing sensitive, oily skin and addressing issues like scalp folliculitis and dark circles requires a holistic approach in Ayurveda. For your skin concerns, it suggests a kapha-pitta imbalance. Begin with your diet: avoid excessively oily, spicy, or salty foods that aggravate these doshas. Focus on light, fresh, seasonal foods like leafy greens, cucumbers and gourds. You might want to incorporate cooling herbs, like coriander and mint, into your meals.

Hydration is crucial; drink lots of water, but avoid ice-cold drinks as they can disturb vata and pitta doshas. Herbal teas like fennel or chamomile are soothing. Try a daily practice of gentle face massage using an oil like jojoba, which is non-comedogenic and beneficial for oily skin. Just a few drops will help keep the skin nourished without blocking pores.

For the dark circles, ensure you’re getting adequate rest, aiming for 7-8 hours of good sleep. Consider applying a mixture of almond oil and rose water gently under the eyes nightly. Your scalp folliculitis could be linked to the same dosha imbalance. Use a mild, natural shampoo enriched with neem or tea tree oil, which help in soothing the scalp.

Practice regular, light head massage with coconut or sesame oil to improve blood circulation. Let it sit for about 30 minutes before rinsing. Steaming your face with neem leaves once a week can aid in managing the pimples and dullness.

Yoga and pranayama, such as anulom vilom and kapalbhati, can be incorporated into your routine to balance doshas and facilitate detoxification. Avoid harsh chemical products; they often increase sensitivity and disrupt natural oil balance. Everything takes time, so patience is key. If symptoms persist, you may benefit from a more personalized treatment plan from a trained Ayurvedic practitioner. If ever any condition worsens or causes significant discomfort, don’t hesitate to seek medical attention.
