After a grueling workout, your skin can feel tight, red, and dehydrated. Amla & Coconut Skin Repair Balm from Kama Ayurveda, ₹799 at Nykaa, can calm inflammation, replenish moisture, and restore a healthy glow.
Amla – a powerhouse of vitamin‑C – tackles oxidative stress while coconut oil locks in hydration. The subtle hint of turmeric adds anti‑inflammatory power, and the balm’s lightweight texture spreads like a whisper, leaving no greasy residue.
Apply a pea‑size amount to the face and neck after showering or a sweaty workout, gently massaging until fully absorbed. Repeat twice a day for best results; overnight use can yield a luminous complexion.
Lalremsiami Hmarzote, who trained barefoot on dusty pitches in Mizoram, swears by this balm as part of her pre‑ and post‑match routine. She says the cooling sensation eases skin tightness and helps her recover faster on the field.
The turmeric component also helps reduce muscle soreness, giving athletes a dual benefit of skin and body relief.
