With regards to your lifestyle, Ayurveda recommends to drink cooling beverages like coconut water or cucumber and mint water or warm jasmine tea. Avoid excessive caffeine, it will increase your anxiety levels. Eat nourishing fruits like green grapes or coconut rather than sweet fruits like watermelon. Avoid processed carbohydrates and we strongly recommend avoiding dairy and lactose as that can cause your cystic acne to worsen, if you have any. So avoid food with cheese, milk and butter.

Goes without saying, drink plenty of water, not 2 liters, as much as your body requires

Use refreshing floral waters like rose water as your toner instead of alcohol based drying toners.

Avoid any skincare products that makes your skin feel stretched and dry because this will lead to excess oil production for your skin type and excessively dry areas that are Vata or dryness prone

Lastly, keep your skincare simple, allow your skin to breathe and enjoy the benefits of 2-3 high quality products rather than 8-9 poor quality products
