Ayurvedic Herbs for the Skin - 304

Colette focuses on the skin in this episode and why the skin is particularly prone to aggravations at the end of the hot season. She explains what considerations need to be taken before suggesting herbs for the skin, including:

Colette talks in detail about the following herbs which are beneficial for the skin:
