First people need to understand what the term "ayurvedic" acutally means....I think the information below should help you out.
Herbs and spices have been used in maintaining and enhancing human beauty since time immemorial. Indian women have long used herbs such as Sandalwood and Turmeric for skin care; Henna to color the hair, palms and soles; and natural oils to perfume their bodies. Not too long ago, elaborate herbal beauty treatments were carried out in the royal palaces of India to heighten sensual appeal and maintain general hygiene. Rightly said, beauty is very much an inner thing. First beautify from within.

Get a really good haircut. This does wonders. Go to a nice salon and ask for the stylist to give you a style that is easy to maintain and fitting for your face.
Buy clothing that is not part of a trend from places like Gap and J. Crew, and if that isn't affordable, look for knock offs that are still nice in cheaper stores. I like guys in non-cargo jeans that look expensive and tasteful, something like Express jeans. When in doubt, dress up rather than down.
It is difficult to look intelligent, but if you learn to speak well and dress in a way that makes you look older and refined, people will assume that you are intelligent.
Work out often to build a body shape that is desirable, and eat well to keep that shape. The simplest advice is to examine what about others makes them look and appear the way you want to, then replicate it as best you can.

just be your self, confidence is so much more important than something that comes out of a bottle. if you FEEL like you are handsome & smart, than another people will feel it too.
