Have you ever wondered why skin creams and massage oil often don’t work at all well in overcoming the problem of dry skin? The fact is that there are many possible reasons for dry skin, including climatic factors or drying out of the skin as a result of artificial heating or exposure to detergents. Frequently, however, the cause lies within rather than outside the body and if this is the case relief and rejuvenation may be much more difficult.

The skin is generally kept lubricated by the secretion of sebum – an oily substance produced by the sebaceous glands – and if the amount produced is just right and the content of essential fatty acids is optimal the skin should be lubricated effectively. However, if the oil content is inadequate the sebum may be too dry and actually clog the pores. Dry skin may not begin in the sebaceous glands but might be a result of lack of lubrication from the gut or even a hormone imbalance. It’s a small wonder that choosing an appropriate remedy with any degree of certainty can be such a problem.

Enter Shatavari, the Wild Asparagus herb. Shatavari oil contains an extract of the root of this highly prized plant and it has been shown to have multiple health benefits. It has remarkable penetrative capability which enables it to nourish, rejuvenate and tone the skin and the muscles, to relax the peripheral nerves and even to lubricate the joints, while at the same time enhancing the blood circulation. Additionally, Shatavari is an excellent source of plant-derived oestrogen compounds which can be highly beneficial for hormone balance and it also contains mucilage which contributes to the formation of healthy mucus linings. It is a fantastic face oil for anti aging, wrinkles and skin rejuvenation.

YATAN Shatavari Body and Face Oil, available from our online store, has been specially developed to deal with dry skin and skin problems. It is a traditionally produced infusion of Shatavari and many other pure Ayurvedic herbs in a base of black sesame oil. As a result of its internal, as well as its more obvious external benefits its regular use can be seen as an effective aid to facial rejuvenation.
