Ayurvedic Skin Care - Abhyanga - Mind, Body, Soul.
Ayurvedic skin care is a holistic approach to skincare rooted in traditional Indian medicine. It emphasises natural ingredients, personalised routines, and balance between mind, body, and spirit to achieve healthy and radiant skin.
Ayurvedic skin care begins with abhyanga, a therapeutic self-applied oil (like Merakii day and night serums) massage that nourishes the skin. Because looking good depends on feeling good, giving yourself a massage every day may be the best beauty secret we have. The combination of the gentle motion of the massage and the healing powers of natural oils is optimum for stimulating the dosha energies to carry on their natural function and retain balance, as well as for toning the skin and its underlying muscles and tissue. The infused oils used for massage have rejuvenating properties that we miss out on if we think of all oils as impurities (like grease and dirt) or a source of automatic acne or other breakouts, since the right oils actually help remove toxins.
Merakii Day and Night Face Serums will moisturise your skin gloriously while the scents transport your mind, and the massage you give yourself will give you time to focus inward every day.
