Acne, inflammation, and recurring breakouts are often signs of aggravated Pitta and Kapha energies in Ayurveda. When heat (Pitta) and excess oil (Kapha) increase in the body, it reflects on the skin as acne, clogged pores, redness, and irritation.
Tea Tree Oil, known in Ayurveda for its krimighna (anti-bacterial) and kandughna (anti-itch) actions, is a powerful natural remedy that purifies skin, reduces inflammation, and supports clearer, calmer skin — without harsh chemicals. Its cooling and clarifying nature helps balance aggravated doshas and restore skin harmony.
🌿 WHAT IS TEA TREE OIL (AND WHY IT WORKS)
Extracted from the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia tree, Tea Tree Oil is widely used for:
-
Antibacterial action to fight acne-causing bacteria
-
Anti-inflammatory effect to calm red, angry pimples
-
Antifungal cleansing for scalp and body acne
In Ayurveda, it is associated with Pitta-Kapha pacifying properties, making it ideal for acne-prone and oily skin.
