How to Keep Your Skin Radiant in the Summer with Ayurveda Skin Care Routine
Updated: Aug 17
Welcome, sun-kissed souls! Pitta season has been upon us, and it's time to shine with radiant skin that mirrors the endless summer days. Let's dive into a list of rejuvenating tips that will nourish your skin and protect it from the fiery and drying summer elements. 🌞
First on our list is the golden rule of skincare—hydration. Make water your best friend this summer. Ayurveda suggests sipping on water infused with hint of mint or a splash of lime to keep your skin hydrated from within. If your skin is dry on the outside, just imagine how dry things look on the inside. Hydration is key to maintaining skin elasticity and combatting the summer heat.
Aloe vera, the plant of miracles, is a summer skincare essential. Its soothing properties calm sun-exposed skin and promote healing. Apply fresh aloe vera gel generously to cool and moisturize your skin after a day under the sun.
Shield your skin from harmful UV rays with using hats, umbrellas, and Ayurvedic-inspired natural sunscreens. Opt for moisturizers like coconut oil and almond oil. These oils nourish skin deeply.
Sandalwood, the gem of Ayurvedic skincare, comes to the rescue during summers. Its cooling properties help soothe sunburns and reduce skin inflammation. Create a paste using sandalwood powder and rose water for a calming face mask to rejuvenate your skin.

Indulge in the refreshing benefits of Ayurvedic face mists. Mix rose water, cucumber juice, and a hint of mint to create a cooling face mist that revitalizes tired skin instantly, or try Saumya Ayurveda's rosewater hydrosol mister. Keep it in the fridge for an extra burst of freshness. Feel a hot flash coming on, dash to the fridge and spritz away!
Ayurvedic wisdom emphasizes the importance of a mindful skincare routine aligned with your body type (dosha). Determine your dosha (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha) and tailor your skincare products accordingly for dosha balance. Took a quiz and poked around on the internet and found it more confusing? It's understandable.
Nourish your skin from within by incorporating skin-loving foods in your diet. Ayurveda recommends consuming cooling foods like cucumbers, watermelon, and coconut water to maintain skin hydration and keep it glowing.
Swap harsh cleansers for gentle herbal concoctions this summer. Prepare a homemade cleanser using neem powder, turmeric, and honey to cleanse your skin effectively while keeping it free from summer-induced breakouts.

Allow your skin to breathe and repair during the night. Apply Ayurvedic oils like coconut oil or almond oil before bedtime to nourish your skin deeply and wake up with a revitalized glow.

“I just completed a colonoscopy and my ulcerative proctitus was given a Mayo Clinic Score of 0, normal or inactive disease. THANK YOU!
I had trouble keeping weight on and had lost 10 pounds. No matter what I ate, I felt like something was missing. My family doctor said I had colitis. Also, my energy level was very low, and I was using medication almost daily for a skin condition that my dermatologist recommended. Add to this severe migraine headaches about every two weeks. Following Veena’s guidance, all of these conditions have been nearly eliminated!
I gained 10 pounds, and my energy level is now strong and stable. When I eat, I feel satisfied. My skin condition has stabilized, and the migraines have essentially disappeared. I’m very grateful to Veena for the wonderful results and the healthier quality of life we have attained together. Without reservation, I highly recommend Veena at Saumya Ayurveda.”
-Chris Schirber, Yoga Teacher, Minnesota
“After six months with no period and increasing concern, I am happy to report that my periods are completely regular. With just two months of Veena’s treatment, they are almost symptomless except for mild cramping. I am feeling very good and well balanced overall. My skin has improved as well. I am looking forward to doing the cleanse with you this spring. “ – A.K. Minnesota
“Veena has been a dream to work with! I came to her with a number of concerns around my digestion, skin, and menstrual cycle, and she has helped me find so much improvement in all areas and more!” – ----Meg McNeil, Boulder, Colorado
“Veena has helped me beyond my expectations! Veena is a wonderfully astute and thorough practitioner of Ayurvedic medicine. She is exceptionally intuitive and empathic and can "see" my body and accurately assess my ailments and condition through virtual visits. She can quickly determine courses of treatment for my health concerns that have produced excellent results for my body and mind.
I have received treatments for chronic fatigue and pain, dry skin, brain fog and more. I am 59 years old, and my body and mind are gradually wearing out. Veena’s specific guidance slows my aging process and bringing my body and mind back into good alignment.
I have vastly improved with Veena’s care. I will continue to trust Veena and her clinic with my health concerns even before consulting "traditional" health care providers. She has been of immense value helping me alleviate chronic health issues that my regular doctor could not. I would highly recommend Saumya Ayurveda to everyone!” -– Paul Kellett, St. Paul, Minnesota
