Applying Sri Sri Tattva Body Oil is a great choice to combat dryness, and it can certainly be a part of your daily routine, given its natural ingredients. To get the best results, you should apply the oil to damp skin. After your shower, lightly pat your skin with a towel but leave it slightly moist — this helps the oil lock in the moisture more effectively, improving hydration without making you feel overly greasy.
In terms of the amount, start with a small quantity. You can always add more if needed—around two pumps for each area like arms, legs should suffice. It’s important to spread it evenly; using too much might result in that greasy feeling you’re trying to avoid. If your skin still feels a bit dry, you could consider doing this twice a day, in the morning and in the evening. Applying the oil in the evening can help rejuvenate your skin overnight.
If your skin texture hasn’t improved yet, you might also want to explore your diet and hydration levels. Sometimes, dryness can be linked to vata imbalance — emphasizing a vata-pacifying diet which includes warm foods, and good hydration can be beneficial. Make sure you consume health fats like ghee or sesame oil and keep yourself hydrated with herbal teas instead of cold drinks.
Also, check the temperature of your shower water; hot showers can strip the skin of natural oils, worsening dryness. Instead, use lukewarm water to help retain moisture. Lastly, if you don’t see results or experience worsened symptoms, you might want to seek advice from an Ayurvedic practitioner who can provide more tailored guidance to your body constitution.
