Golden Rule of Skin: If you wouldn’t eat it, you shouldn’t put it on your body.
Trade in your makeup remover for sesame oil (dry skin) or sunflower oil (oily or sensitive skin). Never remove makeup with tissues or toilet paper. Use an all-natural sponge or soft cotton ball. Cleanse and oil your skin regularly. Try doing a doshic-appropriate facemask once a week for deeper cleansing and nourishing.
Massage oils into your wet skin with gentle upward/outward strokes.
Avoid stretching, scrubbing or other abusive skin treatment. Treat your skin like a baby’s, and it will look like a baby’s.
Avoid excess sun, wind, cold and heat. If you are going to the beach or the pool, coat your skin and hair in a protective layer of coconut oil. You will still need sunscreen to prevent burning. Add it underneath the oil and let it dry before applying.
Don’t EVER let masks dry on your face. Keep them wet with a rose or lavender spray.
Don’t put anything on your face before bed. Heavy night creams clog the skin.
Avoid chemical- and alcohol-based products.
Avoid super hot or super cold water on your face.
