Question
How does Carolyn Scott incorporate Ayurveda into holistic skincare routines?
Answer
Hi, I’m Carolyn Scott-Hamilton from The Healthy Voyager. I incorporate Ayurveda into holistic skincare by first looking at your unique constitution (dosha balance) and lifestyle, not just your skin type. From there, I focus on inside-out care: food, digestion, stress, sleep, and environment, because your skin reflects your internal health.
On the outside, I gravitate toward natural, dosha-appropriate oils and herbs, gentle facial massage to boost circulation and lymph flow, and simple, non-toxic products rather than harsh chemicals. On the inside, I support skin with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant-rich, whole foods and mindful routines that calm the nervous system, which is very much in line with Ayurvedic principles of balance and harmony.
Would you like help figuring out your likely dosha and what that means for your skincare?
