If you ask a woman about what she desires in life, having picture-perfect glowing skin is one thing that she'll place on the list. But sadly, there's no easy fix to get radiant skin. Regular skin care is the only way to get glowing skin naturally, without any makeup.
But lack of sleep, stress, aging, pollution, harmful sun rays, and following an unhealthy diet rip that natural glow from the skin, leaving it dull and shabby. Have you been there, too? Unfortunately, you cannot always protect your skin from environmental stressors, as they are a part of our lives. Work-related stress also continues to take a toll on our skin health.
However, you can always follow simple remedies and a healthy diet to restore the lost radiance to the skin. Ayurveda has many such glowing skin secrets that can help us protect our skin. Ayurvedic tools like facial oils, packs, scrubs, and ubtans gently nourish your skin, cleanse the pores, soothe the skin, and breathe better. And what's more interesting is that you can find most of these ingredients in your kitchen!
So, if you've always wondered how to get glowing skin, these natural remedies for healthy and radiant skin will be your answer.

Turmeric is one of the most powerful Ayurvedic ingredients for the skin. In Sanskrit, it's known by names such as "Haridra" ("The Yellow One"), "Gauri" ("The One Whose Face is Light and Shining"), and "Kanchani" ("Golden Goddess"). These names and the ancient traditions of women applying turmeric (haldi) on their faces are evidence of its ability to reveal a glowing complexion.

How And When To Apply:
