Natural skin care often uses ingredients from the kitchen and the garden. Knowing what each one is traditionally used for helps you choose wisely.

Common ingredients

  • Gram flour (besan): a gentle, traditional cleanser and scrub base.
  • Turmeric (হলুদ): a traditional ingredient in many skin pastes. It can stain, so use it with care.
  • Sandalwood: used in traditional pastes for its scent and feel.
  • Plant oils: used to soften and protect the skin.

Choosing natural products

Read the ingredient list, check the net weight and look for a contact address. Try one product at a time, so you know what works for your skin.

A fair note

"Natural" is not the same as "safe for everyone". Patch test every new product, and stop if you notice a reaction. If you have a skin condition, speak to a doctor first.

Our Glow Cream is one example of a product that combines traditional ingredients in a simple daily routine.
