Vasishta Mrudumoola Cream - #34375

Jayden

I am dealing with this really annoying skin issue for a while now. It started when I got back from a trip to the mountains, where my skin got super dry and cracked from the cold wind and outdoor stuff. I thought it was just temporary but then it got worse, like red patches and itching all over. A friend mentioned Vasishta Mrudumoola Cream and said it helped her with her dry skin after a similar trip. I was kinda skeptical but desperate enough to try anything. I’ve used it for about a week now, and honestly, I don’t know if it's helping or not. My skin still feels irritated, and when I put on the Vasishta Mrudumoola Cream, it stings a little. Is that normal?? I also changed my diet a bit, started eating more veggies and drinking water, think that could help too? Should I keep using the Vasishta Mrudumoola Cream even if it feels a bit uncomfortable? Or should I look for something else entirely, like maybe a herbal supplement or something? I just want this to go away, it looks bad and I feel self-conscious. If anyone has experience with this cream or knows what I might be doing wrong, that would be so helpful!! Thanks in advance!

Doctors' responses

It looks like your return from the mountains has left your skin in a vulnerable state. The dry and cracked conditions you’re experiencing can be quite distressing, especially when compounded by factors such as sudden climate changes. The Vasishta Mrudumoola Cream is known for its nourishing and hydrating properties, often helpful in restoring moisture balance to the skin. However, the stinging sensation you’re experiencing could be a sign of sensitivity or an allergy to one of its ingredients. It’s not uncommon for our skin to react this way when it’s already compromised.

Given that your skin still feels irritated after a week, I would recommend reassessing its use. Perhaps taking a short break to see if your symptoms improve without it might help clarify if it’s the cream or the environment causing the discomfort. Consider using it on a small test patch first before applying to larger areas, to better gauge how your skin reacts.

Meanwhile, you might benefit from incorporating more grounding and moisturizing elements into your skincare routine. Choose a gentle cleanser free of harsh chemicals and a plant-based moisturizer with nourishing oils, like almond or coconut, known to suit dry and sensitive skin types.

Including vegetables in your diet and increasing water intake is certainly beneficial. Hydration from inside supports not just the digestive processes but cleary impacts skin health too. To further support hydration and balance your doshas, consuming cooked or warm foods, adding ghee into your meals could also help soothe and nourish your insides and reflect on your skin.

If the problem persists, and especially if there seems to be no resolution or if the irritation worsens, it’s essential to consult with a healthcare professional or Ayurvedic practitioner. Unaddressed skin issues can sometimes lead to more significant imbalances that require personalized attention and care. Herbal supplements might also be considered but again—best with expert guidance to suit your specific constitution and current needs.

It’s possible that your skin is reacting to the ingredients in Vasishta Mrudumoola Cream. While the cream is often used for moisturizing and soothing dry skin, a stinging sensation isn’t typically expected. It’s crucial to first make sure that Vasishta Mrudumoola Cream is appropriate for your specific skin condition and prakriti (body constitution). If the skin reaction persists, or worsens, consider pausing its use.

Your attempts to increase your vegetable intake and hydration are good steps in improving your skin health from within. Maintaining a diet high in fresh fruits and vegetables can balance your doshas, particularly pitta which may be contributing to the inflammation and redness. Supplementing with ghee or sesame oil in your diet could help as well, these are nourishing and help in maintaining skin softness when your vata is imbalanced from harsh weather.

Beyond diet, avoid harsh soaps and hot water, which can exacerbate dryness. Healing the skin barrier might call for external treatments containing natural oils, like coconut, jojoba or almond oil. Invest in these for gentle massage, which enhances circulation and promotes healing through enhanced agni and the nurturing of dhatus.

Consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner might be beneficial if symptoms continue, as they can offer a personalized view and suggest specific herbs or formulations. If the irritation seems severe, promptly consult a healthcare professional to rule out any serious conditions. Addressing both inner balance and external care will be important steps toward resolving this issue.
