I have dry skin .During winter season its very much itching. what should I do to get rid of this problem?

Answer:
Dry Skin:

You must use cosmetics which have less Percentage of oil. Massage using cold cream, all purpose cream, Vitamin-C cream. If there is extreme dryness, add some oil to the cream mentioned above and get yourself massaged.  This will give a good result, it is also necessary that one should take food containing oil. You have to use oils like Nivea, Almond oil, Olive oil etc.,

Hair:

It might happen due to weather and change of water and also due to worries and tension.  Use clear water, avoid shampoo and use shika, massage your hair with warm oil in the evening so that it might get soaked for two hours.  Dip a towel in hot water and then squeeze.  The hotness of the towel should reach the scalp, continue it for four or five minutes leave it for the whole night.  The next day morning apply henna, with tea decoction, egg and curd or time (1) Mix together and apply the same on the scalp again and wash it after an hour.

  1. Mix coconut milk and Kasa kasa apply as a pack.
  2. Cow’s milk, white pepper, lime seeds make it as a pack.
  3. Lemon juice, amla, curd, egg white  and castor oil.
  4. Have separate towels.  Combs and pillows.  Due to hormone imbalances you are getting hair - loss.  Tension and worries should be avoided.

I Have lot of pimples and holes in my face.  How can I solve it? I wanted to have my face clean and shinny. How can I do it?

Answer:
Wash your face with pure water four or five times daily.  You should not massage your face.  Do only mini facial, that means clean the face and steam the face.  When you steam the face your pores will be opened and then remove black and white heads and give ice cubes to face so that the holes will be closed.  Apply herbal pack like mint leaves, thulsi leaves and neem leaves.  Mix it with sandal powder and rose water.

Madam,
My face is oily face. I heard that if we apply almond oil in the face complexion would become fair. Is it true? Can I apply almond oil for the oily face? How long it should stay in the face? Where can I get Multhani mutty? Can I apply it for the oily face? Thanks for your service.

Answer:
There is natural secretion of sebaceous glands in our body.  To avoid over secretion of sebum avoid oily and fatty substances.  If it is avoided it will fade away.  We should wash the face with water frequently and clean the face with astringent.
