Did You Know you can Experience Post-Partum Dryness on the Skin Long After the Breast-Feeding Phase - Even Years Later?
No one talks about this part of Motherhood...
You prepared for pregnancy. You prepared for birth. You expected those sleepless nights and diaper changes. But did anyone prepare you for what happens to your skin afterward?
One day, your child is 2 years old, things are looking better, the struggle is seeming easier, you seem to be getting the hang of things. But then, you catch a glimpse in the mirror and realize... Your skin doesn't feel like yours anymore.
That firm, smooth skin? Now it feels looser. Softer. A little.... deflated. There are stretch marks all over and your body just feels different.
You're not alone - and it's not just a part of the aging process. The truth is, it takes time. Your skin doesn’t fully bounce back, even years after pregnancy.
Here's what’s really happening (and what you can do to bring back firmer-looking, smoother skin - no matter how long it's been).
Aging is natural. Changing is natural. We’re not here to sell you the idea of going “back”. We’re here to help you feel more - more confident, more supported, and more in sync with the amazing woman you are now.
And that starts with reconnecting to your skin. Not as a vanity project—but as an act of care.
If body-care for you has meant regular moisturization, ask yourself this:
Moisturization is important, but is it enough?
Sure, moisturization helps to protect our skin from dehydration, cracking, and peeling. But dryness is not the only change our body goes through over the years.
Have you noticed your skin getting... saggy, droopy, or crepey?
No simple ‘moisturizing lotion’ will tackle these very real problems most skincare companies fail to talk about.
We all know that our skin ages with us: it loses collagen and elasticity and after pregnancy, we can’t expect our skin to look as firm, tight, and taut as it did before.
Or can we?
If you’ve ever heard of Ayurveda (the Ancient Science of Life that originated in India over 5000 years ago), you’ll know that this holistic system of medicine has a large focus on self-care and rejuvenation.
AND ACCORDING TO AYURVEDA, HERE ARE 5 EFFECTIVE WAYS TO FIRM THE LOOK OF SAGGY, MATURE SKIN ON THE ARMS, LEGS, AND BELLY:
1. Understand that Loose Skin Doesn’t “Tighten Up” on its Own. Post-Partum Dryness isn't just a phase and can linger even years after delivery!
This is the perfect time to create a routine that’s about you—with products that can truly empathize with you and actually work.
Not for pregnancy. Not for nursing. For now. For moms like you, two+ years in, who are ready to invest back into their own well-being.
During pregnancy, your skin's collagen and elastin fibers have been stretched and weakened.
And, of course, there's a sudden plunge in estrogen levels post-pregnancy which can lead to:
Slower collagen production
Increased dryness or thinning of the skin
A visible loss of elasticity or firmness
By the time a child is two years old, the body has often stabilized hormonally, but the lingering effects on skin structure can still be visible and felt.
Nurturing skin with natural, look-firming ingredients can help improve the look of tone and texture, giving it the care it deserves in this new phase of motherhood.
For beginners, let's understand the concept of "Dosha".
In Ayurveda, a “dosha” is a way of understanding your body’s unique makeup and how it responds to the world.
There are three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.
Each one represents a combination of the natural elements (like air, fire, water, and earth) and governs specific physical, emotional, and energetic tendencies in your body.
Kapha consists of the elements of earth and water and is associated with oiliness, juiciness, heaviness.
Pitta consists of the elements of fire and water and is associated with heat, sharpness, and determination.
Vata consists of the elements of air and space and is associated with dryness, lightness, alertness, and creativity. In the Vata stage of life, we experience dry, rough, and sagging skin, and we may feel cold more often, but also reach maturity, wisdom, grace and mastery.
Ayurveda offers a different perspective to help understand these changes, and what to do to restore the balance.
What does it mean for the skin?
When Vata is elevated, it manifests in both physical and emotional ways. The effects on the skin are:
Extreme Dryness on the skin
Loss of tone and elasticity
Crepey, Rough texture
2. It’s Not Just About Your Belly – Your Whole Body Needs Attention.
Everyone focuses on the belly, but here's something you might not know.
Your arms, thighs, and even your back can undergo similar changes, thanks to the sudden shift in your dosha.
Stretch marks, dryness, and even sagging skin can appear everywhere, not just around your stomach.
During pregnancy, the skin stretches across the belly, breasts, and thighs, putting the underlying collagen and elastin fibers under tremendous strain.
Yes, you may see stretch marks on your thighs or upper arms, places that don't always get the spotlight.
This is why it's crucial to focus on body care as a whole, not just our tummy.
While belly and thighs are among the most impacted, the effect of increased dryness gets evident on the arms & legs as well.
What becomes crucial then is something that's, in fact, very basic.
INTENSE MOISTURIZATION.
Notice the word "Intense"; what does it mean and how do you ensure it?
The answer lies in using the most potent of Vata-balancing Natural Ingredients that GO BEYOND REGULAR MOISTURIZATION to intensely & firmly moisturize dry, mature skin.
The result? Intensely Moisturized skin looks firmed and plumped, and you automatically start feeling better and more confident in your own skin.
Ayurveda specializes in self-care and body care!
One of the pillars of Ayurvedic medicine and self-care is daily self-massage or ‘Abhyanga’.
The act of massaging with a nutrient-dense oil daily is the best thing you can do for your skin - now that your toddler might be allowing you some time to yourself! It’s Grounding. Empowering. Restorative.
The benefits of abhyanga or self-massage are manifold:
Lubricates the skin, making it look smoother and softer
Relaxes you and makes you feel more grounded and supported
Helps eliminate impurities from the body
Helps tone the look of the skin for a firmer and more defined silhouette.
Softens and smoothens the skin
While a good self-massage should take about 15-20 minutes, taking out even 5 minutes per day for yourself is enough to see effects.
5 minutes a day to love yourself, to love your body and to look and feel better - a 5-minute investment that is worth your skin’s while.
Ayurveda recommends doing this self-care routine with not a lotion, but an OIL.
But why use Body Oils and not your regular lotions?
Oils help re-introduce lost moisture in the skin – be that right after stepping out of the shower, or exposure to air conditioning, or cold, dry winds. They are great at mimicking the skin’s lipid barrier and supporting it.
Oils are lipophilic in nature which means that they are attracted to fats!
Oils are not a foreign substance for our skin. The formation of oils is a natural and innate process within the layers of our skin, which means that the application of an oil externally is a welcome addition to our skin’s natural oils.
Pure and natural oils are innately rich with an array of benefits that help in giving your skin a toned and even complexion along with an enhanced texture.
When it comes to balancing Vata, Sesame Oil remains an unbeatable hero. It's nourishing, warming, and intensely moisturizing.
Massaging your body daily with Sesame oil can help regulate the visible effects of Vata imbalance on the skin.
While oils alone are a great start, a better way to get even more targeted benefits for your body and make it more specific to Vata Dosha by cooking it with Vata-balancing herbs and spices.
The beauty of nature is in its potency. Certain plant-based oils—rich in essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and skin-loving nutrients—can visibly improve the look of firmness and hydration when used consistently.
It’s not about overnight miracles. It’s about smart, regular care with ingredients that work with your skin, not against it.
Some of the best Ayurvedic ingredients specifically to balance Vata, and Firmly Moisturize dry, aging, saggy-looking skin are:
BLACK GRAM
(Vigna Mungo)
Also known as an ‘uber nourisher’ in ancient Ayurvedic texts, Black Gram is an extremely potent moisturizing and unctuous ingredient for an Ayurvedic oil that not only moisturizes but also nourishes all the tissues of the body.
Black gram is an extremely nutritious, enriching food as it contains high levels of protein, potassium, calcium, iron, niacin, Thiamine, and Riboflavin.
Youth-promoting
Smoothing and volumizing
Helps keep the skin’s moisture intact
Is, in itself, moisture-boosting as it is unctuous in nature and nourishes the body
It's not flashy; it doesn't come with glittery labels or viral trends.
But if you are a mom who's been noticing how your skin has changed - feeling thinner, saggier, or just not like it used to - this humble ingredient might be exactly what your body's been asking for.
In Balaayah, castor plant root extract is used which brings you just the softness and the richness of castor without the heaviness!
Results? It sinks in beautifully.
No sticky finish, no greasy film on your clothes. Just soft, comfortable skin.
Rich in fatty acids, particularly ricinoleic acid, while keeps the skin moisturized and supple.
Double-youth booster
Provides superlative aging support to the skin
Promotes clarity of complexion
Softens skin
Provides a smooth, velvety texture
Ensures long-lasting moisture
CASTOR
(Ricinus Communis)
VELVET BEANS
(Mucuna Pruriens)
Velvet Bean, as its name suggests, is known for endowing skin with a soft, velvety texture.
Ancient Ayurvedic texts talk vividly of Velvet Beans’ ability to induce healthy-looking, firm-looking skin through external application by means of an oil.
Gives that luxuriously soft, velvety texture to your skin
Is a rich source of proteins, lipids, minerals, and 60 major phytochemicals
Provides nourishing, rejuvenating, and soothing comfort to any skincare product it’s added to
Soothing and purifying - keeps skin looking clear
Nourishes, rejuvenates, and provides nurturing unctuousness
Ideal for maintaining healthy skin
No discourse on herbs that manage the look of saggy skin can be complete without mentioning Dill Seeds.
Revered as a strong Vata-balancing force in Ayurveda, the modern research done on Dill Seeds only reaffirm what an effective herb it is!
A strong youthfulness promoter
While being moisturizing and warming, it also supports a firm, elastic look of the skin
It is known as a highly potent herb when it comes to reducing the appearance of sagginess and crepiness
Helps soften the appearance of prominent signs of aging
Calms and soothes the appearance of aggravated skin
Gives a firmed look to mature, saggy skin
DILL SEEDS
(Anethum Sowa)
5. Use an Ancient, Proven, Time-Tested Formulation
There are multiple procedures and fancy treatments available that claim to get rid of your saggy appearing skin.
Many people opt to even go under the knife with surgical treatments.
Besides being painful, these procedures and treatments come along with some seriously damaging risks too. You can face post-operative complications like infections, reaction to anesthesia, and bleeding. You can even experience hair loss, skin damage, and discoloration.
On top of all these risks, it also costs you an arm and a leg!

"I never write reviews, but this product is worth it.
I use oils on my skin anyway, so I figured this might just be a really expensive moisturizer, but I have been shocked at how much firmer my skin looks. I have some looser skin on my belly from when I had my son and as I’ve been aging it has seemed more obvious. This really helped! And I love the smell- earthy and not too overpowering."
- Laura S.
I had my doubts about the body oil. I am 53 years old my skin is starting to sag. Since I started to use it you can see my skin drink it up for it was thirsty. My skin started to feel better and my tummy starting to look nice."
- Rosetta R.
When I apply Ayurveda oils to my face and body my skin feels luxurious and soft. There is no oily residue as the oils blend right into the skin. My crepey arms, stomach and thighs appear to be less wrinkly. With continued use of these oils I think my results will improve. i also love the earthy scent of these oils."
- Doris S.
I love this oil. This is my third purchase of this oil. My skin feels smooth and hydrated without a greasy look. I apply it onto my arms thighs, legs, just about onto to my whole body. I have very dry skin living in a dry heat climate state."
