Ayurvedic Beauty Care During Monsoon

The monsoon season brings relief from the heat, but it also increases humidity, clogged pores, fungal infections, and dull skin. According to Ayurveda beauty  care , this is the time when your Pitta and Kapha doshas can go out of balance — leading to skin issues like acne, excess oil, pigmentation, and rashes.

Instead of using chemical-laden products that strip the skin’s natural oils, Ayurveda offers gentle, effective, and holistic beauty care for glowing, healthy skin — even in the dampest weather.

Why Monsoon Needs Special Beauty Care in Ayurveda

  • Increased humidity clogs pores and increases sebum

  • Impaired digestion (Agni) reflects on skin health (breakouts, dullness)

  • Lack of sun can slow cell regeneration

  • Fungal/bacterial infections are more common

Ayurveda believes “beauty starts from within” — so monsoon skincare focuses on cleansing, nourishing, and balancing both inside and out.

 Ayurvedic Beauty Care Tips for Monsoon Season

1. Detox Your Skin with Herbal Ubtan (Face Pack)

Use a natural face pack 2–3 times a week made with:

  • Neem – fights acne and bacteria

  • Sandalwood (Chandan) – soothes inflammation

  • Multani Mitti (Fuller’s Earth) – absorbs excess oil

  • Turmeric (Haldi) – brightens and heals skin

DIY Pack:
 Mix 1 tsp Multani Mitti + ½ tsp turmeric + 1 tsp rosewater + pinch of neem powder. Apply, let dry, and rinse with lukewarm water.

2. Daily Cleansing with Triphala or Gram Flour

Cleanse your face with Besan (gram flour) or Triphala powder mixed with milk or rosewater instead of soap-based cleansers.

These remove excess oil while preserving natural moisture and balancing skin tone.


3. Herbal Steam for Pore Purification

Once a week, take a steam with:

  • Tulsi (basil)

  • Neem leaves

  • A pinch of turmeric

This helps open clogged pores, fight bacteria, and refresh tired skin.


4. Oil Balancing with Kumkumadi Tailam

This classical Ayurvedic facial oil:

  • Lightens pigmentation and scars

  • Adds natural radiance

  • Works beautifully as a night serum during monsoon

Massage a few drops on clean, damp skin before bed.


5. Hydration with Rose Water & Aloe Vera

Avoid heavy creams. Instead:

  • Spray rose water as toner

  • Use pure aloe vera gel as moisturizer to soothe, heal, and hydrate


6. Eat for Your Skin

Glow starts within. Include:

  • Warm herbal teas (coriander, ginger, cumin)

  • Bitter vegetables (neem, karela)

  • Fresh fruits like papaya, pomegranate, and amla

  • Reduce dairy, fried food, and excess sugar during the rains
