Rashmi Harish leads a busy life—a demanding job, two kids, in-laws and an entire household to look after. Self-care is a luxury for her, and skincare comes quite low on her priority list. A conscious shopper, Rashmi always ensures that she buys the best for her family –only farm-fresh organic fruits and vegetables on her dining table. She also prefers wearing traditional weaves. Recently, the entire family took a break from the humdrum of life and spent days at a wellness retreat in Kerala. After coming back, Rashmi and her family were intrigued by Ayurveda and its health benefits. So, when a friend suggested that Rashmi embrace a holistic way of life through Ayurveda, she readily agreed. Now, Rashmi feels more relaxed and it shows on her skin too. From food to choosing her skincare products — Rashmi votes for going back to nature, Ayurveda.

Of late, the ancient form of medicine and way of life have gained much popularity, people who lead a hectic life are turning to Ayurvedic products to get healed from within. Let’s delve deeper into why this ancient way of healing and wellness is still the preferred choice of skincare for many women like Rashmi.

Unlike chemical beauty products which are full of these toxic chemicals, Ayurvedic products have natural ingredients and are based on recipes passed on from generation.
