The theme ‘skin’ is always in vogue and is usually linked to aesthetics and external beauty. But, did you know that the skin has super important functions for the body? Exactly!
For example, is the skin that:
- Helps good immunity by preventing most microorganisms and dirt microparticles from entering the body;
- It plays a role in the stability of body temperature;
- Prevents excessive water loss, maintaining hydration;
- Contributes to the protection of the most harmful sun rays.
Well, these are some functions that a balanced skin fulfills very well! It turns out that: emotions, stress, food, lifestyle... directly interfere with skin balance. This, therefore, is not always present, which results in various skin diseases. Among them, melasma
Identifying melasma
Here's a little help to increase your awareness of your own body. However, these notes do not replace consultation with a dermatologist, who will really tell you if you have melasma or not.
Melasma can present:
1. Larger spots compared to freckles or age spots.
2. Dark spots and usually symmetrical, that is, they appear with similar patterns on both sides of the face and/or in the center of the forehead.
3. Stains that appear in regions such as: chin, cheeks, forehead, bridge of the nose and/or neck.
4. To a lesser extent, spots on the dorsal regions. Especially in cases of chronic sun exposure.
How to reduce and, in some cases, end melasma naturally?
Despite how easily they appear on the body, it is not easy to remove the spots caused by melasma. Here, we will indicate suggestions based on Ayurveda, ancient Indian medicine.
So, let's go!
The first and most important: it is necessary to balance the doshas, that is, to balance the body. It is not possible to treat melasma only from the outside in.
The balance of the body - from the inside out - is linked to changes in diet and lifestyle, this process - often - is time-consuming, but extremely effective and essential for a true treatment of melasma.
Along with this process of rebalancing the body and emotions, we apply masks
with natural acids without rebound effects .. customized for your skin type and imbalanced dosha .
A suggestion for choosing the best natural treatment is to know the origin of the melasma that is on your skin. If the stain or your face has some redness in addition to the coppery stain, it is likely that your unbalanced dosha is Pitta. If the stain is darker, grayish or blue-black, the imbalanced dosha may be more related to Vata. If the melasma patches are associated with itchiness or have white edges, there is a possibility of having a Kapha dosha imbalance.
But the good news is that you can now start your melasma-fighting treatment at home with some completely natural and super effective skin whitening face masks.

Natural treatments for your home spa to combat melasma
-Do not use industrialized cosmetics or soap! Generally, they have several components harmful to the skin and can cause rebound effect more often. Opt for natural products.
- Bet on organic, fair and seasonal food. Nature is wise and it is its best SPA!!!
Choosing different seasonal foods, alternating these foods on a daily basis, will surely bring you unparalleled benefits for the health of your skin and body.
Also, eat a diet where vitamin C and vitamin E are considered. Citrus fruits, broccoli, cabbage, yellow peppers are foods rich in vitamin C; sunflower seeds, almonds, peanuts, spinach, avocado and cold-pressed vegetable oils are some of the good sources of vitamin E.
- Make the moment of skin care a moment of rest, a true SPA at home. It could be twenty minutes a day. But, make this routine a complete restoration for skin and emotions.
For this, after applying your skincare, take a rebalancing break. Put on some calming music or a healing mantra, lie down, close your eyes and breathe deeply when you have your face mask or moisturizer applied.

Other important information for those who already have or to prevent future skin spots:
Use sunscreen in areas most exposed to the sun – give preference to natural and physical protectors. Many protectors are harmful to health, especially the chemical ones. Another option is to use wide-brimmed hats when going out in the sun.
- Use natural products suitable for your skin type.
- Avoid unnecessary exposure to the cell phone, computer, television screen. LED light is very harmful and increases skin spots.
- Do not use birth control pills that have both progesterone and estrogen.
- If not really necessary, do not take hormone replacement treatments.
- Seek to balance the body and the doshas. For this, consult a professional.
- Do not use industrialized cosmetics with preservatives and components that unbalance the skin and the health of the body.
Remember: precisely when you present “miraculous” treatments, modern aesthetics are accompanied by the rebound effect and end up darkening the spots over time and exposure to treatments.
There is no magic pill that the beauty industry presents - the faster the result of the industrialized product, the greater the probability of the rebound effect. In general, this type of “miracle” product only masks the problem. True treatments require dedication, patience and constancy.
