First of all, Ayurvedic skincare is nothing new, and has been practiced for at least two thousand years but probably more. The term ‘Ayurveda’ originates from Sanskrit, an ancient Indian language, and today it more or less translates to “science of life” in English. The practice of Ayurveda centers on the belief that everything is interconnected, and overall health hinges on achieving balance and harmony with the body.It has become a bit of a buzzword in skincare lately but Sahajan skincare is truly where “ancient Ayurveda meets modern science”. The word Sahajan is derived from the Hindi word “intuitive”.
Lisa Mattam, a former pharmaceutical executive, who is kind, stunning and smart as heck, worked with Ayurvedic doctors in Kerala along with her Canadian team. All their products undergo rigorous regulatory reviews, clinical trials, and consumer testing. Lisa shares all kinds of positive content on the Sahajan socials. Yoga tips to keep us moving, and Ayurvedic food tips as well.
All this and I haven’t even started to talk about how lush and luxurious this line is. I could jump up and down and run into the streets telling everyone they need to use Sahajan! And now it’s at Sephora which is amazing for all of you!
I recommend the The Ayurvedic Essentials but if nothing else you need the Cleansing Oil with Vit C & Sqalene, it is the most gorgeous cleansing oil I own. It feels silker than anything I’ve ever put on my face, but also creamy, and has moringa oil for an otherwordly experience. And it leaves nothing behind but a glow.
The Radiance Face Serum is a golden elixir that simultaneously feels like a drink that my skin drinks up like a parched desert while also leaving a dewy glow behind. Most serums I use with hyaluronic acid don’t offer long lasting hydration – Radiance Face Serum never stops.
And, one of the most remarkable face creams ever, the Nourish Creme Riche, which leaves a magical glow the instant you apply it. Not a mica, shiny glow. Not a tint. A magical blurring glowing plumping potion that I NEVER EVER want to be without! It’s full of the Ayurvedic compound “triphala”.
Triphala is loved for its antioxidant-rich ingredients that combine to nourish and revitalize the skin. Its antioxidants shield the skin from free radicals, which cause premature aging and dullness. By neutralizing these harmful molecules, Triphala helps maintain youthful, radiant skin.
Triphala also promotes anti-aging effects by boosting collagen production, essential for skin elasticity and firmness. Regular use can diminish fine lines and wrinkles, promoting a youthful complexion. Triphala supports better skin tone and texture by enhancing collagen production, crucial for healthy and plump skin. Its Amla fruit component, rich in vitamin C, aids in reducing hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and other discolorations.
All I know is I’ve never used anything like Sahajan skincare and I am never going to stop! Review upcoming for their latest launch which is an eye balm but so much more. Stay tuned…
