Diatomaceous earth from ancient underground lake beds holds a high negative charge that draws impurities through polar attraction.
White clay helps to absorb excess oil from the skin's surface and pores.
Yogurt and honey soften and hydrate the skin.
Oat, chickpea, barley and lentil flours act as natural exfoliants. They help nourish the skin as well.
Neem leaf, trifala and tulsi are renowned ayurvedic skin purifying rasayanas. Their purifying action is non-depleting and rejuvenating. Coriander, fenugreek and papaya leaf are also cleansing herbs.
Red Sandalwood, Manjistha, Red Coral, Shatavari, Brahmi, Rose and Ashwagandha are esteemed by ayurvedic healers for their deeply nurturing, complexion enhancing quality. These herbs, when absorbed transdermally, help keep skin healthy and youthful.
Orange peel, coriander, fennel, chamomile, rose and fenugreek are the aromatics in the formulation that act as yogavahi--they help transport the benefits of the herbs to the cells and skin tissue.
