Shweta rule out the core reason of pigmentation,is it seasonal, if u eat some perticular thing , less sleep??
Also observe your gut, are you generally constipated? Acidity atc?
Here’s a natural plan-
1. External Care (Ayurvedic Products + Home Remedies)
Face Masks (2–3 times a week):
Good for summers and oily skin
1.Sandalwood (Chandan) + Multani Mitti + Rosewater mask – very cooling, clears pigmentation.
2.Masoor Dal (Red lentils) Face Pack – grind lentils, mix with milk or honey, apply for 20 minutes.
3.Neem Powder + Aloe Vera Gel – fights dullness and pigmentation.
Face Serum (Daily Night Care):
Kumkumadi Tailam (Vaidyaratnam, Kottakkal Arya Vaidya Sala, or Kerala Ayurveda brands are genuine).
Just 2-3 drops, massage gently at night on clean face.
2. Internal Care (for long-term glow and healing)
Herbal Supplements:
2.panchanimbadi tablets (twice a day)
1.Manjistha capsules (detox blood, reduce pigmentation)
2.Amla capsules twice a day and Triphala churna at bedtime (boosts skin immunity)
Turmeric capsule (heals skin internally)
Diet tips:
Eat 1 amla daily or amla juice.
Soak 5 almonds overnight, eat them in morning.
Include turmeric, ghee, leafy greens, carrot, beetroot daily.
Avoid too much fried, spicy, junk food (they worsen pigmentation).
Try this and definitely revert.

Apply kumkumadi /Nalpamaradi keram and massage a little.
Mulethi tab or churna with drakshav/ mahamanjitha kwath.
Do shitli and bhramari pranayam
Try to chant vishnushahastra nam if possible.

Addressing pigmentation and dullness can indeed be approached effectively with Ayurveda, offering safe and gentle methods to enhance your skintone and glow. It's crucial to first identify if there's any underlying dosha imbalance that may be contributing. In Ayurveda, such skin issues often relate to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, which governs inflammation and metabolism in the skin.
First, focusing on detoxifying your body can significantly help. Consider incorporating "Triphala" into your routine. It is a classic Ayurvedic formulation that helps detoxify the body and promote digestion. Mix half a teaspoon of triphala powder in warm water and consume it at night before bed.
Second, a facial mask made from ingredients like sandalwood (Chandan), turmeric (Haldi), and milk can be beneficial. Sandalwood has cooling and nourishing properties, turmeric is anti-inflammatory, while milk acts as a natural moisturizer. Mix sandalwood powder and a pinch of turmeric with enough milk to form a paste, apply this mask twice a week.
In terms of diet, maintain a Pitta-pacifying diet – it involves avoiding spicy, oily, and acidic foods. Opt for more cooling foods like cucumber, watermelon, coriander, and sweet juicy fruits. Keep hydrated throughout the day with water or herbal teas, like chamomile or mint.
Daily self-massage (Abhyanga) with cooling oils such as coconut or almond oil can enhance skin health. Apply oil before showering and let it soak for about 15-20 minutes. This practice nourishes the skin and improves circulation.
Incorporate a consistent skincare regime of gentle cleansing. Use Ayurvedic cleansers that have natural ingredients such as neem, aloe vera, or rosewater. Avoid harsh soaps or chemicals that strip natural oils from your skin.
Lastly, observe stress-reducing techniques like yoga or meditation, as stress can exacerbate skin conditions. Aim for at least 7 to 8 hours of quality sleep each night, since skin regenerates and repairs itself during rest.
Remember, achieving healthy skin is a holistic process and patience is key. Consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized attention if necessary, to ensure you are adapting these practices according to your Prakriti (constitution) and health condition, and gurantee you're on the right path to naturally healthier, glowing skin.
