Winter is here so dry skin, itchiness and low humidity is also here. Every Indian winter we just can't escape from it.Cheeks feel tight, your lips crack despite layers of balm, and your hands look dull no matter how much cream you apply. In modern day life people want to use more traditional things in their daily life. One such remedy which is gaining popularity is using cow ghee in winter for skin hydration.

Cold winds, low humidity, and hot showers quietly remove the skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry and irritated. Fancy moisturisers looked good on shelves but not on your skin. Using cow ghee as a cream is not a trend as a life hack but as an everyday remedy passed down through Experience.

What are the benefits of using cow ghee?



Cow ghee has fat-solubles that support skin repair and elasticity. During winters your skin feels dull, tight and flaky. Vitamin A supports cell renewal. Vitamin E protects against environmental stress. Together, they help soften fine lines caused by dehydration.

Ayurveda’s View on Inner Hydration and Winter Skin CareWhen winter arrives, the air turns cold and dry, and the body naturally loses warmth and moisture. Ayurveda doesn’t see dry winter skin as a surface problem. It sees it as a quiet signal from the body. Ghee is 100% natural,there is no synthetic add on.

Using Cow Ghee for Under-Eye Care in Winter



The under-eye area is one of the first places to suffer in winter. The skin here is thin and loses moisture quickly. A rice-grain amount of cow ghee, gently tapped around the eyes at night, can help reduce dryness and fine lines caused by dehydration.It also helps with under-eye dullness that worsens in cold weather.

How Often Should You Use Cow Ghee on Your Skin?If your skin is oily or there are any breakouts, ghee should be used more thoughtfully. Once or twice a week at night is usually sufficient. Avoid using it during the day, especially if you’re stepping out into pollution or sun.If your skin feels extremely dry in winter, tight after washing, flaky around the nose or mouth, or uncomfortable by evening, using cow ghee every night can be deeply comforting. A small amount, warmed between your fingers and pressed into the skin, is enough to help it recover overnight.
