Desi ghee is superior to thousands of expensive creams, as soon as it is applied the skin becomes brighter and one gets relief from cracked heels.

Rishikesh: With the onset of winter season, the most troubling thing is dryness of the skin. The face, lips, heels and hands and feet feel so dry that no matter how much cream, lotion or moisturizer you apply, the same dryness returns again after a few hours. This is where India’s age-old miraculous recipe Desi Ghee comes in handy. Our grandparents always used to say that we should both eat and apply ghee in winter.

Why desi ghee is the best medicine for dry skin?

During a conversation with Local 18, Dr Rajkumar (Ayush) said that the vitamins A and E present in desi ghee repair the skin at the cell level. The Omega-3 and fatty acids present in it provide moisture deep into the skin and fill it with moisturization that lasts longer than any cream. This is the reason why within a few days of applying ghee, glow and softness starts appearing on your face.

Apart from this, it also maintains the natural oil balance of the skin. Desi ghee is a panacea for those who suffer from problems like skin tightness, itching, flaking or cracked skin on the face during winter. It not only makes the skin glow, but also heals it, that is, it affects the root cause of the problem.

How and when to apply ghee

If you want to eliminate the dryness of your skin, then it is very important to use desi ghee in the right way. Before sleeping at night, just take a small pinch of ghee and apply it on the face and lips with a light massage. By massaging, ghee gets easily absorbed into the skin and the healing process continues on the face throughout the night. By applying lukewarm ghee on the ankles, hands, feet and cracked skin, its effect is further doubled. If you want, you can also apply it by adding a little rose water to it, this helps the ghee penetrate the skin lightly and further increases the natural glow.
