The Ayurvedic Secret to Healthy, Glowing Skin: Regular Exfoliation
In Ayurveda, exfoliation is an essential part of skincare for maintaining a healthy glow. Ubtan, a traditional Ayurvedic scrub made from powdered grains and herbs, has been used for centuries to improve circulation, detoxify, and rejuvenate skin. Yamu’s scrub, inspired by these time-tested recipes, exfoliates gently with natural ingredients like rice flour and sugar, making it perfect for modern-day use. Regular use promotes smoother, brighter skin without the harshness of chemical exfoliants.
