Ashwagandha – A Superfood for Your Skin

For years ashwagandha has been recognized in the world of Ayurveda for its medicinal properties and distinctive scent. From a herb used in medicinal recipes to being a modern-day supplement, Ashwagandha has many health benefits. The herb is brimming with benefits for your system. When added to your diet - as a supplement or in the raw form, it can do a lot of good to your mind and body; that includes your skin. 

Did you know that some skincare and haircare products contain ashwagandha in appropriate quantities to better your skin health? It helps in the production of natural skin oils, and skin-enriching compounds like hyaluronan, elastin, and collagen. Ashwagandha powder, when mixed with honey or milk, can be used as a toner because of its strong astringent properties.
