For dark skin around the mouth and nose with irritation and peeling, it’s best to use gentle, natural products. Opt for mild soaps like Himalaya Herbals Gentle Exfoliating Apricot Soap or Mamaearth Ubtan Soap, which are soothing and contain turmeric, known for brightening and calming the skin. For creams, try Vicco Turmeric Skin Cream or Aloe Vera Gel for hydration and healing. These can help lighten pigmentation and soothe irritated skin. Always do a patch test before using any product to avoid further irritation, and protect your skin from direct sun exposure. If the irritation persists, it’s advisable to consult a dermatologist.

Dark skin around the mouth and nose corners can be pretty annoying, but let's see how Ayurveda might be able to help. It's like this — these might be signs that your skin is trying to tell you something. According to Ayurveda, such skin issues are often about imbalance, particularly excess Pitta. A couple of things you could do to soothe your skin without causing irritation.
First, about a soap. Try using something super gentle, you know like a mild sandalwood or turmeric soap. These ingredients are favorites in Ayurveda—they soothe the skin without stripping natural oils. You can find them pretty easily in markets that sell Ayurvedic products, and they're usually reasonably priced.
For a cream, you could go for something with aloe vera or almond oil. They're like magic when it comes to calming, hydrating, and cooling the skin. Aloe vera gel is especially great for calming irritation and you can even use it fresh from the plant if you have access to one. Just cut a leaf, squeeze out the gel and gently apply it to your face. Simple and effective!
Now, if your skin is peeling and getting flaky, might be worth considering a bit of tweak in your diet too. Since this could be related to Pitta, try to cool things down with foods that don't 'heat up' your inside like cucumbers, leafy greens, and stay away from spicy foods for a bit.
Keep in mind to drink plenty of water, maybe coconut water sometimes to flush out those pesky toxins and hydrate skin from the inside out.
About lifestyle—and this might sound random—look at your stress level too, it's a sneaky culprit! A bit of yoga or meditation could help balance things. But hey, if this situation seems to worsen, seeing a dermatologist wouldn't hurt, just to make sure there's nothing more serious going on.
Hope this makes sense and helps you out! Let me know if you need more help.
