Dr. Harsha Joy · Accepted Answer

Your symptoms suggest an imbalance in Vata and Pitta doshas, leading to dry skin, dandruff, acne, and open pores. To address dryness, use natural moisturizers like coconut oil or aloe vera to hydrate the skin. For dandruff, a gentle scalp massage with neem oil or a blend of coconut oil and tea tree oil can help balance the scalp's condition. Avoid harsh chemical-based cosmetics and opt for natural skincare like turmeric, honey, and sandalwood to reduce acne and soothe inflammation. A diet rich in hydrating foods like cucumbers, leafy greens, and healthy fats (like ghee and nuts) will also help maintain skin moisture. Regularly practicing stress-reducing activities like yoga or pranayama can help balance both your mind and skin.
