Neem: The Sunburn Savior

Too much sun? Neem can help. Neem (or Azadiracta indica) is Ayurveda’s anti-inflammatory herb to the rescue. One of the best herbs to treat redness, inflammation, and other Pitta skin concerns, Neem is one of the most powerful blood purifiers and detoxifiers in Ayurvedic herbology.

Best for acne, skin diseases, wound healing, and skin damage (especially from the sun), neem is useful for all Pitta disorders. It clears toxins involved in acne and other inflammatory skin conditions. It works wonders for eczema and psoriasis flare-ups. 

One of the best ways to receive the benefits of neem is topically, through the skin, in one of our medicated, healing oils. Fun fact: our bestselling Eczema + Psoriasis Body Oil actually doubles as an after-sun oil.
