This facial oil is perfect for those with dry skin as it is made with natural moisturizing ingredients (such as almond oil) as well as traditional Ayurvedic ingredients like Tulsi (aka holy basil, a popular adaptogenic skin care ingredient). Designed to repair, rejuvenate and hydrate skin, this face oil also helps fade away fine lines and wrinkles. The founder of the brand, Pratima Raichur, has a background in Ayurvedic medicine and curates and designs the skin care products herself.
What better way to start rebalancing your skin than with a thorough cleanse? This unique cleansing oil uses turmeric as its main ingredient, a spice that has been used in India for over 4,000 years. Turmeric has amazing healing properties and has the ability to treat pimple scars, blemishes and even fine lines (Priyanka Chopra even makes a DIY face mask out of the stuff, in case you need more convincing). This cleansing oil emulsifies into a moisturizing milk when it comes in contact with water. This helps remove dirt and other impurities off your skin without overly drying.
Feed your skin with the right food and prevent dryness with this skin balm. It is primarily made from ghee, a type of butter that is created from buffalo or cow's milk. Ghee is typically used in South Asian cooking, but it is also known for its highly moisturizing properties and healing abilities. Use this balm to moisturize hands and cracked heels or apply this on your face as a deep moisturizer.
Detoxing and removing impurities from the body is crucial in Ayurvedic medicine, and this wash-off mask will do just that. Made with a luxurious blend of honey, clay and various plant oils, this mask will gently exfoliate your skin while also bringing nourishment. It also has black cumin to clear out your pores, turmeric and clove to rejuvenate the skin, and sage and pomegranate to prevent dullness and restore balance.
This nourishing eye cream helps diminish fine lines and wrinkles around your eye area, leaving a more youthful glow. It's made with natural ingredients, such as plant extracts and oils, that work together to calm and soothe your skin. Shankara products are made in small batches to ensure the highest quality. Ingredients are also cold-pressed, which helps preserve the potency of the ingredients.
