Ayurvedic Summer Glow-Up – Radiance Through Face Masks & Exfoliation

Ayurvedic Summer Glow-Up – Radiance Through Face Masks & Exfoliation

Ayurveda’s Seasonal Approach to Skin Care

In Ayurveda, the skin reflects the state of internal balance. Each season influences the doshas—Vata (air/space), Pitta (fire/water), and Kapha (earth/water)—which in turn affect the health and appearance of the skin. Summer is the season of Pitta dosha, associated with heat, metabolism, and transformation. When Pitta is balanced, it promotes a luminous complexion and efficient digestion. But excessive exposure to sun and heat can disturb Pitta, causing inflammation, redness, sensitivity, or accelerated ageing.

The classical Ayurvedic texts, such as the Charaka Samhita and Sushruta Samhita, advocate Ritucharya—adapting one’s diet, lifestyle, and skincare routines to align with seasonal energies. During summer, Ayurveda recommends cooling, hydrating, and soothing practices. Ingredients like rose, neem, sandalwood, aloe vera, and manjistha are prized for their ability to calm heat and protect the skin naturally.

At Ayurveda Pura London, our holistic skincare is grounded in this authentic wisdom. Our formulations are designed to help your skin recover from heat and UV exposure, restoring its natural radiance and vitality.

Why Your Summer Skin Needs Special Care

High temperatures, urban pollutants, and prolonged sun exposure can strip the skin of moisture and disrupt its protective barrier. Ayurveda encourages the use of gentle exfoliation, nourishing masks, and cooling botanicals to counter these effects and maintain the skin’s natural glow.

1. Hydrating Face Mask – Cool & Replenish

Our Hydrating Face Mask is enriched with natural herbs to deliver intense moisture while calming overheated skin. It strengthens the skin barrier, leaving it smooth and supple.
How to use:

  • Apply a thin, even layer to freshly cleansed skin.
  • Leave on for 10–15 minutes.
  • Rinse with cool water to refresh and revitalise.

2. Anti-Ageing Face Mask – Revitalise & Repair

The Anti-Ageing Face Mask combines antioxidant-rich Ayurvedic botanicals to help reduce fine lines, improve skin elasticity, and repair sun-induced damage.
Tip: Use 2–3 times weekly for visible radiance and firmness.

3. Exfoliating Face Cream – Gentle Summer Radiance

Exfoliation helps remove dull cells, brighten the complexion, and improve the absorption of nourishing treatments. Our Exfoliating Face Cream offers a mild yet effective polish without irritating sensitive skin.
How to use:

  • Massage gently onto damp skin in circular motions.
  • Rinse with lukewarm water and follow with a hydrating mask.

4. Rose Water – Everyday Cooling Hydration

Our Organic Rose Water is a timeless Ayurvedic beauty essential known for its sheeta virya (cooling energy). Use it as a toner or spritz it throughout the day for instant refreshment.

5. Jatyadee Oil – Post-Sun Skin Recovery

A traditional Ayurvedic formulation, Jatyadee Oil (Jatadi Oil) is infused with healing herbs like neem and jatamansi. It soothes irritation, reduces redness, and promotes natural skin renewal. For best results, apply it overnight as part of your summer recovery ritual.

Pro Tips for an Ayurvedic Summer Glow

  • Gently exfoliate 2–3 times weekly to prevent dullness.
  • Pair exfoliation with a hydrating or anti-ageing mask for enhanced results.
  • Keep Rose Water close for on-the-go cooling.
  • Apply Jatyadee Oil in the evening to encourage deep repair.
