Introduction
Your skin reflects your inner health, and Ayurveda emphasizes a holistic skincare routine that adapts to the changing seasons. By aligning your skincare with Ayurvedic principles, you can maintain radiant, healthy skin throughout the year. Let’s explore how to nurture your skin across all seasons with natural remedies and lifestyle changes.
Spring (Vasanta) – Detox & Refresh
