If your skin’s suddenly looking tired or you’re breaking out without reason, stress might be the culprit. And stress doesn’t just mess with your mood, it breaks down collagen faster too.
That’s where ashwagandha steps in. This Ayurvedic herb helps calm your nervous system and regulate stress hormones, which in turn supports healthy skin and slows down visible ageing.
Ways to try it:
Mix a spoon of ashwagandha powder with warm milk before bed
Stir it into smoothies if you don’t like the earthy taste
Take it in capsule form if that’s more your thing
It won’t work overnight, but over time? Total game-changer.
One last thing: Don’t forget water
We can’t talk about skin without talking about hydration. No matter how many desi remedies you use, if you’re not drinking enough water, your skin’s going to look like a parched plant.
Keep a water bottle handy, especially if you’re also sipping on caffeine (which dehydrates). Add a few cucumber slices or mint leaves for that spa-like feel. Hydrated skin = happy skin.
