Menopause brings changes—not just in how you feel but also in how your skin behaves. One day, your skin feels fine, and the next, it’s drier, thinner, and losing its glow.

The drop in estrogen can lead to wrinkles, dullness, and increased sensitivity.

But don’t worry! With the right care, you can keep your skin healthy and glowing. Holistic and a mindful lifestyle can be your best allies.

Ayurveda and Skin in Menopause

In Ayurveda, menopause is linked to increased Vata dosha, which causes dryness and roughness. Here’s how to balance it:

Oil Massage: A warm sesame or almond oil massage deeply nourishes the skin.
Hydration: Sip warm water throughout the day to keep the skin moisturized from within.
Herbal Support: Ashwagandha, Shatavari, and Brahmi help balance hormones and reduce stress.
Cooling Face Packs: Sandalwood, aloe vera, or rosewater soothe the skin.

Ayurvedic Skin Care Tips

Match Skin Care to Your Dosha: Understanding your dosha can help you choose the best skincare routine:

Vata Skin: Naturally dry and prone to fine lines, Vata skin needs deep hydration and nourishment. Warm oil massages with sesame or almond oil help maintain moisture. Use rich, natural moisturizers and avoid harsh exfoliation to keep skin soft and supple.
Pitta Skin: This type is sensitive and easily irritated. Protect it with cooling ingredients like aloe vera, rose water, and sandalwood. Sun protection is crucial to prevent redness and inflammation. Avoid over-exfoliating, as it can lead to irritation.
Kapha Skin: Generally well-balanced but tends to be oily, Kapha skin requires regular cleansing and gentle exfoliation to prevent clogged pores. Use light, natural cleansers, and herbal face masks to maintain a fresh, healthy glow.

Moisture & Sleep: Well-moisturised skin is healthy skin. Use natural moisturizers suited to your dosha. Also, getting enough sleep is essential, as poor sleep can lead to inflammation, dullness, and faster ageing.
Lifestyle Matters: Managing stress is very important for skin health. While a busy life may not allow for drastic changes, small habits like a nutritious diet, yoga, and mindfulness can significantly improve your skin’s health.
