Customised Skincare

A Ritual As Unique As Your Skin

Every brushstroke on a canvas is intentional. Every handful of clay a potter shapes is measured. Every skin, like every work of art, is entirely its own. In our Ayurvedic apothecary, the creation of hand-mixed creams blends ancient wisdom with meticulous craftsmanship. Each formulation begins with a careful consultation, where a team of Ayurvedic doctors and experienced analysts assess the unique constitution (Prakriti) and specific needs of the individual.

A Healing Ritual, Not Just Skincare

Thoughtful Ingredient Curation

Every ingredient is chosen with intention—freshly harvested botanicals, cold-pressed oils, mineral-rich extracts and the most potent actives sourced for their purity. Each component is inspected, ensuring it meets the highest standards of quality.

Infusion & Blending with Rhythm

The process unfolds in a setting that allows positive energy to be infused in the product. Herbs are slowly infused into base oils over a gentle fire, allowing their therapeutic properties to meld. This mixture is hand-stirred with wooden spatulas in rhythm with nature’s cycles.

Customised For Your Dosha

Drawing upon centuries-old texts and individual consultation, a harmonious blend of fresh herbs, oils, and infusions, with the most effective contemporary actives, a cream is formulated for just you.

Final Packaging With An Invocation

Once the cream reaches its perfect consistency, it is carefully transferred into glass jars, sealed to preserve its freshness. A final blessing is offered, invoking well-being for the recipient. This ritual reflects the wisdom of Ayurvedic doctors & analytical scientists who transform carefully selected ingredients into healing skincare through care, spiritual mindfulness, and precision.

  • Acne and breakouts
  • Pigmentation and uneven skin tone
  • Dryness or dehydration
  • Premature ageing and fine lines
  • Sensitivity or redness
  • Oily and congested skin
  • Open pores and texture irregularities

Can I use other skincare products along with this cream?

Yes, but we recommend discussing your current routine with our experts so we can ensure the compatibility of the products and suggest you the best options for your skincare requirements.

Are customised creams more expensive than regular products?

Customised creams are priced based on the ingredients, formulation complexity, and professional time involved. While they may be slightly higher than other products, they offer greater value through tailored results.

How long will it take to see visible results?

Results vary based on the skin concern and the formulation. Most clients notice improvements within 7-10 days, with more noticeable changes in 6-8 weeks of consistent use. Your expert may guide you in follow-ups to enhance outcomes.

Discontinuing won’t harm your skin, but you may stop seeing the targeted benefits. Consistency is key in skincare. If you need to pause or change routines, we can guide you on transitioning safely.

Yes, we encourage periodic follow-ups (typically after 6-8 weeks) to review skin progress. Based on results and seasonal shifts, your formulation can be fine-tuned for continued improvement.

Can I combine multiple concerns in one cream?

Yes. Many formulations address 2–3 concerns simultaneously (e.g., pigmentation + dullness + dehydration). However, we avoid overloading with actives to ensure skin tolerance and stability.

Will I need to keep customising forever, or can I switch to a regular routine later?

Customisation helps reset and rebalance your skin. Once your concerns are managed, we can transition you to a maintenance formula or recommend a simplified daily routine based on what’s working best.

What is the difference between essence and serum?

Essence
An essence is a lightweight, watery skincare product designed to deeply hydrate the skin and restore its natural moisture balance. It works as a preparatory step, making the skin more receptive to subsequent products. Typically, essence is applied after toner and before serum, ensuring optimal absorption of active ingredients that follow.

Serum
A serum is thicker and often has a gel-like texture, formulated with a high concentration of active ingredients. Its primary role is to target specific skin concerns, such as dullness, fine lines, or uneven tone. Serums are applied after essence and act as a treatment step in your routine, delivering potent benefits directly to the skin.
