According to Ayurveda, oily skin is believed to age more gracefully than other skin types. That’s because it’s less likely to develop deep face lines. Isn’t that great news? As far as skincare goes, oily skin requires deep cleansing, but it also needs some balancing. If what you apply to your skin is properly suited to your skin type and natural, your skin will absorb it well and find balance over time.

In Ayurveda, Kapha type skin is prone to excessive oiliness, blackheads and non-inflamed acne. If your skin is oily, look for natural products like those from Ajara that contain the following ingredients.
Rosemary is an astringent herb, rich in antioxidants. The oil is great for oily skin to make it healthier, cleaner and smoother. It is antibiotic and able to get rid of scars from acne or even injury. It helps tone patches of discoloration, leaving you with an even complexion. It contains iron, calcium, and phytonutrients, and even provides protection against harmful environmental conditions. It’s known to prevent premature aging.
Ajara’s Rosemary Mint Oil Control Wash creates a balanced, soft, moisturized feeling on the skin.
Peppermint is antiseptic and antimicrobial. This makes it an excellent toner that helps in moderating oil secretion. That means, it doesn’t just help to even out the complexion and eliminate scars from zits, it also ensures that your skin produces the optimum amount of oil so you don’t have future breakouts. When you use products designed for oily skin, you run the risk of developing dry, lifeless skin. The presence of peppermint in these products helps guard you against that likelihood. Peppermint moderates the level of oil in the skin.
Macadamia nut oil is known for its ability to beautify the skin. It’s rich in essential fatty acids and leaves a non-greasy texture. It penetrates the skin easily and spreads smoothly to lubricate it without leaving any problematic residue. It has a high Omega 7 content in it, which makes it helpful in healing burn or wound marks. Ajara’s Rosemary Mint Oil Control Wash is a sophisticated blend of macadamia oil, coconut oil and key essential oils that balance oily skin.
To the human body, each part of lemon is useful – even its peel! Because of its citrus bioflavonoids content, lemon peel is highly efficient at detoxifying the skin, making pores smaller and cleaner. It works well on face lines, pigmentation and dark spots to make the skin tone even. Get all the benefits of lemon peel in Ajara’s Lemon Ginger Ultra Light Moisturizing Gel.
