Ayurvedic Remedies

Skin Health

In Ayurveda the skin is seen as the mirror of inner health. Our skin is a reflection of everything that happens on the inside.

 

Skin is an organ that breathes and absorbs, so think of body products as food. If you cannot eat it, Ayurveda suggests not to use it on your skin.  Skin eats and whatever you feed it is ingested by the bloodstream to become raw material for tissue building. 

 

Here you will find a collection of herbs, natural and organic oils and moisturizers for acheiving and maintaining healthy glowing skin.

50 g Tarika Pimple Remover - Works with the first application

This product works!!  A unique formulation of minerals and herbs, known in India for their powerful antiseptic and antifungal properties, effective in the treatment of pimples, blackheads and eruptions for adults and children over 12 years of age. Calms irritated skin without drying or redness.  

 

The warming sensation of the masque is a result of blood circulation being drawn to the face to heal the skin from within allowing the natural elimination of toxins.  Unlike other blemish treatments that contain chemicals to dry blemishes topically, Tarika Pimple Remover will not bring the blemish to a "head" but will reduce the size of the eruption without drying, redness or leaving marks on skin.

 

Scar Healing Oil

The body's intelligence is profound and has the innate ability to know exactly what is needed to biologically to heal.  With our conscious assistance to this natural ability, we have the capability to rebalance and regenerate our system.  Scars occur as a natural part of the healing process and are the result of collagen fibrous tissue replacing normal tissue after an injury, surgery or wound.  Scarring may also appear as stretch marks from pregnancy, weight gain or growth spurts.  Various types of therapies may speed up the healing process and aid the skin in becoming smoother, healthier and youthful again.

Organic Rosewater Spray Toner

Our 100% Organic Rosewater Hydrolat Spray Toner is a traditional Ayurvedic formula for cooling and soothing skin.  Rosewater is especially beneficial for sensitive dry skin while providing suppleness and elasticity.  

 

We suggest spritzing the face with Rosewater after washing and before moisturizing for beautiful radiant skin. Or spray your entire body to refresh and cool and help protect from environmental toxins.  For tired eyes, try dabbing on cotton pads and placing over closed eyes to ease stress and tension.

 

The best toners are hydrolats, since these homepathic waters which are a byproduct of the steam distillation of essential oils contain micronized particles of essential oils.
