Namaste Jintu ji,
For enhancing skin glow and improving complexion naturally, Ayurveda emphasizes balancing Pitta dosha, purifying the blood, and nourishing the skin from within. Here is a holistic approach for daily care:
Daily Skin Care Regimen:
Cleansing:
Wash your face with natural cleansers like besan (gram flour) mixed with a pinch of turmeric and rose water. Avoid chemical-laden soaps.
Exfoliation:
Use a scrub made from masoor dal powder (red lentils) and milk twice a week to remove dead skin and brighten the skin.
Moisturization:
Apply aloe vera gel or almond oil daily to hydrate and soften the skin.
Face Mask:
Use a mask made of sandalwood powder, multani mitti (Fuller's earth), and rose water once a week for a glowing complexion.
Internal Care:
Herbs for Glow:
Take Manjistha (Rubia cordifolia) capsules (500 mg) or powder with warm water daily to purify the blood.
Drink Neem juice (10–15 ml diluted in water) every morning to detoxify the skin.
Hydration:
Drink plenty of water and include hydrating beverages like coconut water.
Dietary Suggestions:
Eat a Pitta-pacifying diet, including cucumbers, leafy greens, pomegranates, and fresh fruits.
Avoid spicy, oily, and fried foods, which can aggravate skin conditions.
Include turmeric and amla in your diet for natural detox and radiance.
Lifestyle Tips:
Practice Sheetali Pranayama daily to cool the body and balance Pitta.
Get 7–8 hours of sleep to allow your skin to rejuvenate.
Avoid excessive sun exposure; use natural sunscreen like coconut oil mixed with a pinch of turmeric.
Consistency with this regimen will help improve your skin's natural glow and overall complexion. Managing PCOD and hypothyroidism through balanced diet and lifestyle changes will also contribute significantly to healthier skin.

So you’re looking for a little glow, huh? Totally get it. Ayurveda has some golden nuggets when it comes to skin. Each person is unique, but we can play around with some basics here that might suit you well.
First off, let's think about your doshas, Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. If you have more Pitta, you’re likely to have sensitive skin, maybe prone to redness. For Kapha, it might get oily and Vata could make it dry. Start with cooling your Pitta if that’s your case – say, more cucumber and aloe vera on your skin. It’s simple, just squeeze some fresh aloe and mix it with a little rose water, put it on for 10 mins.
You might wanna consider your Agni, that digestive fire. It’s not just about how you digest food, but how nutrients get to your skin. Warm water with lemon in the morning gets things goin'. Keeps it simple, just a small squeeze. Not too much, don't overdo lemons.
Turmeric is a friend here, too, but not too much — just a pinch in your morning milk or in some honey. Mix it up, you can try it maybe 2-3 times a week. It's great for the skin but balance is the key, okay?
Ah, and daily regimen, right. Keep it simple. Wash your face with lukewarm water, not too hot. A pinch of chickpea flour with a little milk for a scrub does wonders. Gentle, circular motions. Don't rush it. Twice a week is good.
Also, hydrate but skip iced drinks, they mess with that internal fire. Herbal teas like chamomile or hibiscus are good. Can sip on these while you catch up on a book or something relaxing.
Ultimately, consistency matters more than perfection. Check in with yourself, make small changes, see how your skin responds. Ayurveda is all about balance and listening to what your body tells you. And remember, glow doesn’t just come from skin but inside-out, like a whole vibe.
