While there’s plenty of self-care advice for women, men get a little high on it.

Delhi-based ayurveda practitioner Ravi Sharma shares some do-it-yourself natural treatments for men.

Scrub before shaving: Scrubbing helps unblock the lymph ducts and remove dead skin cells. Doing this, especially before shaving, will leave your skin clean and smooth. Use an Ayurvedic scrub made with green grass powder, turmeric, neem powder, sandalwood and curd. Apply to the face, let it act for five minutes and rub gently in circular motions, finally washing.

Lip masks: Men need lip hydration just like women. Using a lip mask regularly not only moisturizes them but also reduces the darkening and pigmentation of the lips. You can make an Ayurvedic mask using common kitchen ingredients like yogurt, raw turmeric, honey, and beetroot juice and apply it to your lips. Keep it for a few minutes and wash it off.

hair conditioner It’s a must: It’s a common misconception that men don’t need to condition their hair. To restore hair follicles, try an Ayurvedic conditioner with herbs like shikakai, bhringraj or reetha.
