Ranavat

having a radiant summer ✨

The beauty of Ayurveda is that it’s been practiced for thousands of years. Unlike more common, modern spa treatments designed to target one concern, Ayurvedic treatments & rituals traditionally looked at the body as a whole. Just one reason they’ve remained iconic all these years later. Swipe through to see some of our favorite Ayurvedic treatments from our trip to India.

Swedana – An herbal steam therapy, usually following an oil massage, that exposes the body to warm medicated steam. It relieves stiffness and joint pain while opening the pores to cleanse and refresh the skin.

Shirodhara – A steady stream of warm oil poured over the forehead for an extended period. It calms the mind and promotes better sleep, while the oil nourishes the scalp and hair.

Navarakizhi – A massage using small cloth boluses filled with medicinal rice, dipped in warm milk and herbs then massaged methodically over the entire body. It nourishes the muscles, eases joint and nerve stiffness, and softens, smooths, and revitalizes the skin.

Thalapothichil – A thick herbal paste of medicated milk, herbs, and oils applied over the scalp and left on under a wrap or banana leaf. It calms the mind and eases stress, while nourishing the scalp and roots to support healthier, stronger hair.

A weekend away means never leaving the Ritual behind.

Long before Bakuchiol became a thing, there was Ayurveda’s Bakuchi Seed. Often referred to as “Nature’s Retinol” 🌱

Thousands of years ago, Ayurveda was using Bakuchi Seed to to improve the look of texture, tone & skin vitality. While Bakuchiol is a powerful derivative commonly used today, the whole seed offers more restorative and skin boosting benefits, that make big impact.

RANAVAT’s formulations embrace the best of traditional & science-driven ingredients for treatments that deliver real results.

Earlier this week someone told me RANAVAT would be great for their friend’s “Indian skin”. Indian beauty, just like yoga, meditation, wellness, etc is for ALL. Just like Korean skincare is openly used by all, so is RANAVAT.

In fact, Ayurveda is balancing: meaning the formulas adapt to different skin types and even more importantly they target skin concerns at the root. The result is higher quality skin (not a glass-like coating that sits on top). Instead of fighting with your skin, Ayurveda FEEDS it. What do you think, let’s have a conversation.
