Beauty is NOT Just Skin-Deep!

Did you know that Vaidya Mishra’s Lalita’s Skincare line was formulated using strict guidelines from the ancient AyurVedic texts, the teachings of SVA, and traditional beauty recipes?

The ingredients support, nourish and enhance outer and inner beauty, promote luster, and slow down the aging process. The blends are “pranically preserved” thus chemical-and preservative-FREE. The “prabhava” or “vibrational potency” and intelligence of the plants and herbs is fully maintained delivering real living healing and balance to your skin. Because the creams are pranically preserved, the herbal ingredients provide a rasayana or rejuvenating effect and enhance the coordination between our mental functions, and deliver a supportive positive effect to our “gunam” – inner beauty.

All of the materials and methods that Vaidya Mishra used are meant to enhance our skin’s cellular beauty as well as our spiritual beauty, strengthening our mind-body-soul connection.

This Mother’s Day, give your mom the best that Ayurveda can offer: a unique skin-care line made with fresh flowers, herbs, and oils full of prana, formulated according to time-less SVA techniques.

She will thank you for it!

The five elements of nature – fire, water, earth, air and space – come together to create three bio-chemical types known as “doshas.” Vata, Pitta, and Kapha: these are expressions in different ratios of the fives cosmic constitutional elements.

Doshas are markers for our bodies: how we related to the world, which how much of earth, water, fire, air, and space, flowing through us. Each individual carries a unique signature mixture of these five elements that’s expressed in a distinct balance of the three doshic categories. This applies to everything in our bodies, mind and heart.

Accordingly, each individual’s skin is also unique based on their doshic make-up. Each of these doshas is divided into additional five sub-categories to highlight further distinct functions.

In this sense, the skin is governed by 3 sub-categories or sub-doshas: Pachak Pitta; Vyana Vata; and Shleshak Kapha.

Individuals who are more Pitta by nature, who carry more fire in their biochemical constitution, tend to have a more active bhrajak pitta subhdosha. In other terms, their skin tends to be more sensitive to developing rashes and imbalances due to heat, overexposure to sunshine, or it can also be triggered by spicy food, emotional challenges as well as mental stress.

In addition, because Pitta skin tends to be more prone to acidity, and acidity induces inflammation and kills the friendly bacteria of the skin, Pitta individuals need specific skin care addressing their highly sensitive constitution.

The truth is, in this day and age of excessive EMF computer usage, fast-paced stressed tempo, mental and emotional triggers on the global and local political and cultural platforms, we are ALL sadhak pitta imbalanced, and therefore all our pitta subdoshas are all affected…

For this group of people – all of us right now! – who tend to have more sensitive skin, Ayurveda offers specific help with Pearl Bhasma…

Pearl bhasma is highly somagenic and cooling because when the macromolecules of pearl (bhasma) combine with the proper yogvahi, or carrier, the soothing benefits of the pearl will penetrate up to the 4th layer of the skin. The herbal synergy of plant and flower extracts that Vaidya uses in his creams act as intelligent “yogvahi”-s. A “yogvahi” is a “messenger” that carries the intelligence and potency of herbs and plants into deep tissues and layers. Through the action of yogvahis, bhrajak pitta gets pacified up to the 4th layer, offering inside-out relief. 

In this context, the addition of “bhasma” or ash plays a major role as well. For example, the micro-molecules of the pearl bhasma are highly alkalizing for the deeper levels of the skin. Long-term use of the Pearl bhasma cream helps create a good environment for the friendly bacteria of the skin, and helps to fight against inflammation created by any external or internal factors. In particular, pearl bhasma with rose is great for somebody going through emotional challenges or someone emotionally sensitive in general. Rose is known for its great property for sadhak pitta pacification, while Jasmine helps unify all the layers of the skin which get separated due to acid induced inflammatory situations.  

The Lalita’s Facial Cream with Pearl Bhasma are specially formulated for high-pitta skin types that need deeper cooling and deeper nourishment for their skin. Pearl Bhasma is the best for such skin conditions, because it’s highly Somagenic – very rich in the cooling, nurturing, replenishing vibrational energy of the Moon. Pearl Bhasma is also firming for the skin. You can now chose between a facial cream that carries Natural Pearl Bhasma with Rose, or Natural Pearl Bhasma with Jasmine. Or, you can try them both!

Why Pearl Bhamsa with Rose?

Do you know why emotional stress directly impacts the glow and health of your skin? When your emotions are on the rocks, your sadhak pitta and sadhak agni go off. This impacts all your other pitta subdoshas, stripping your skin of its luster, and slowing down its healthy metabolism. If you are under constant emotional stress, and your skin looks dull and flaky, no external application will help unless you address the heart of the matter – your emotions. Unless you are using a prana-infused cream that contains Rose. Transdermal rose can uplift the emotions by balancing sadhak pitta and sadhak agni right away– the sub- doshas and the flame that govern the emotional heart. Rose strengthens the emotional heart so it can better handle emotional challenges. Not only does rose pacify sadhak pitta – even as it balances sadhak agni – it also carries a “somnasya jana” or bliss-enhancing property. All sub-doshas are inter-connected. Any of Vaidya’s creams can be custom-ordered containing 100% pure and organic Rose Absolute. If you are experiencing emotional challenges right now, then you should go with the Rose Aroma.  

But Rose also carries additional amazing properties confirming it as the Queen of flowers in the plant kingdom! But rose is also beneficial for individuals who experience heat or burning sensations in their limbs or their body overall. Regular transdermal use of rose cleans the sweat inside-out, neutralizing its pH, so that when it is released through the skin, it does not cause irritation. Rose in your facial cream can be especially beneficial if you are a vata or pitta or a mixture of both in terms of your overall constitution and particularly in terms of your skin type.
