Still applying your oils after your shower? You’re fighting a losing battle against your skin barrier. 🛑
In Ayurveda, external oiling is called Abhyanga, and it is a sacred medicine for dry Vata skin. The secret lies in the timing: you must massage warm oil into your skin before you bathe. Hot water and modern soaps actively strip away your body’s natural lipid defense. By coating your skin in warm sesame oil first, you create a protective barrier that seals in moisture while the water cleanses away impurities.
Next week, we move to localized care for the face with Lepas and Ayurvedic Masks! ✨
