1. Acne and Pimples
Isabgol gives good result in case of skin problems like acne or pimples. According to Ayurveda, an aggravation of Kapha leads to an increased sebum production and clogging of pores. This results in the formation of both white and blackheads. Another factor, an aggravation of Pitta causes red papules (bumps) and inflammation with pus. Applying Isabgol paste helps to control excessive production of sebum and removes the clogging of pores. It also helps to reduce inflammation and gives soothing effects due to its Sita (cold) and Ropan properties.
Tips:
a. Take 1-2 teaspoon of Isabgol husk and soak it in water.
b. Wait for some time to get a semi-solid mixture.
c. Add Aloe vera gel and almond oil and mix well to make a paste.
d. Apply it on the face and wait for 15-30 minutes.
e. Wash it off with cold water.
f. Repeat it once or twice a week.
