2️⃣ For Glowing Skin:

🌼 Cucumber + Rose Water Toner - Blend cucumber and strain the juice. - Mix cucumber juice with rose water (1:1 ratio). - Apply on face daily as a gentle toner with a cotton pad. 🌼 Milk & Gram Flour (Besan) Face Pack - Mix 1 tablespoon besan (gram flour) + 1 teaspoon milk + a pinch of turmeric. - Apply as a mask for 15–20 minutes, then rinse. - This helps gently exfoliate dead skin and improve glow.

​Black spots on your face, often referred to as hyperpigmentation or dark spots, along with dull skin and dark circles, are common concerns. In Ayurveda, these issues are often link ed to imbalances in the body’s doshas, particularly Pitta (fire and water) and Vata (air and space). A Pitta imbalance can lead to heat-related skin issues like inflammation and hyperpigmentation, while an imbalanced Vata can cause dryness and dullness.

​Given that you have sensitive skin, it’s important to be gentle and consistent with any remedies you try.

Here are some Ayurvedic home remedies to help with your concerns:

​1. For Black Spots/Hyperpigmentation ​Ayurveda suggests herbs with cooling and anti-inflammatory properties to address hyperpigmentation.
​Turmeric and Honey/Yogurt Mask: Turmeric (Haldi) is a powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Its active compound, curcumin, helps reduce melanin production, which is responsible for dark spots.
​Remedy: Mix a pinch of turmeric powder with a small amount of raw honey (for its moisturizing properties) or plain yogurt (for its lactic acid, which gently exfoliates). Apply this paste to the affected areas and leave it on for 10-15 minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water. Do this 2-3 times a week. A patch test is recommended as turmeric can sometimes stain the skin.
​Sandalwood and Rosewater Paste: Sandalwood (Chandan) is known for its cooling and soothing properties. It helps reduce inflammation and can lighten dark spots.
​Remedy: Mix sandalwood powder with rose water to form a smooth paste. Apply it to the dark spots and leave it on for 15-20 minutes, or until it dries. Rinse off gently. This is an excellent option for sensitive skin.
​Aloe Vera: Aloe vera contains compounds like aloin and aloesin that can inhibit melanin production.
​Remedy: Apply fresh aloe vera gel directly to the dark spots before bedtime. Leave it on overnight and rinse in the morning. This is a very gentle and hydrating remedy.
​Manjistha: This is a powerful blood-purifying herb in Ayurveda. When applied topically or consumed, it helps address skin issues from within.
​Remedy: You can find Manjistha powder and mix it with honey or rose water to create a face pack. Apply it and rinse after 15-20 minutes.

​2. For Face Glow ​To achieve a natural glow, Ayurveda focuses on proper cleansing, nourishment, and improving blood circulation.
​Ubtan (Herbal Face Pack): An Ubtan is a traditional Ayurvedic exfoliating and brightening pack.
​Remedy: Mix equal parts of besan (gram flour) and sandalwood powder. Add a pinch of turmeric. For sensitive skin, mix this powder with milk, rose water, or plain yogurt to form a paste. Gently massage it onto your face in a circular motion for a minute, then leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing. This helps to gently exfoliate dead skin cells and reveal a brighter complexion. ​Kumkumadi Tailam: This is a traditional Ayurvedic facial oil blend containing saffron (kesar), manjistha, sandalwood, and other herbs. It is highly regarded for improving complexion, reducing blemishes, and imparting a radiant glow.
​Remedy: Gently massage a few drops of this oil onto your clean face before bed. This can deeply nourish and rejuvenate the skin while you sleep. ​Facial Massage (Abhyanga): Massaging your face with a suitable oil can improve blood circulation and help remove toxins, leading to a natural glow.
​Remedy: Use a gentle oil like almond oil, sesame oil, or even Kumkumadi Tailam. Massage in a circular motion for a few minutes. This can be done before cleansing your face or as a nightly ritual.

​3. For Dark Circles ​Dark circles can be caused by various factors, including stress, lack of sleep, poor circulation, or an imbalanced Vata.
​Almond Oil: Almond oil is rich in Vitamin E and antioxidants, which nourish the delicate skin around the eyes.
​Remedy: Gently massage a few drops of pure almond oil around your eyes before going to bed. Leave it on overnight and rinse in the morning.
​Potato or Cucumber Slices: Both potatoes and cucumbers have natural soothing and mild bleaching properties.
​Remedy: Place chilled slices of potato or cucumber over your closed eyes for 10-15 minutes. This helps to cool the skin and reduce puffiness and discoloration.
​Rose Water: Rose water has astringent properties that can help tighten the skin and soothe the area.
​Remedy: Soak two cotton pads in cold rose water and place them over your eyes for 10-15 minutes.

​General Ayurvedic Lifestyle Tips for Sensitive Skin ​Ayurveda emphasizes a holistic approach, so what you do internally also affects your skin. ​Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of room-temperature water throughout the day to flush out toxins and keep your skin hydrated.
​Diet: Focus on a diet rich in fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Avoid spicy, oily, and highly processed foods, which can aggravate Pitta and lead to skin issues.
​Manage Stress: Stress is a major contributor to many skin problems. Practice yoga, meditation, deep breathing exercises, or other calming activities to help balance your doshas.
​Get Quality Sleep: Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep each night to allow your skin to repair and regenerate.
​Be Gentle: Avoid harsh scrubs, chemical treatments, and products with strong fragrances. Always do a patch test before applying a new remedy to your sensitive skin.

hello Priyanka Tejomurtula ,

You have black spots on one side of your face, dark circles, and dull skin. These are usually caused by pigmentation, mild skin inflammation, or poor circulation. Sensitive skin can react easily to harsh chemicals, so natural remedies and gentle care are best.

Ayurvedic Medicines / Internal Support:

Manjishtha Churna – ½ teaspoon, twice daily with warm water or milk, helps reduce pigmentation and detoxify blood. Triphala Churna – ½ teaspoon at night with warm water, supports digestion and skin health. Chandraprabha Vati or Yashtimadhu preparations – 1 tablet twice daily, if skin looks dull and stressed.

Home Remedies (Safe for Sensitive Skin): Sandalwood paste with rose water – apply for 10–15 minutes, 2–3 times a week to lighten dark spots. Aloe vera gel – gentle daily application to soothe skin and reduce pigmentation. Cucumber slices or potato juice – for dark circles, 10 minutes daily. Hydration – drink 2–3 liters of water daily, eat seasonal fruits and vegetables for natural glow.

Investigations / Check-ups (if needed): Basic blood tests to rule out vitamin deficiencies (B12, D, iron). Hormonal panel if pigmentation is spreading or sudden.

These steps gently lighten dark spots, improve skin glow, and protect sensitive skin naturally. Regular use with patience gives best results.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika
