The Luxury of Purity | Why Prefer Natural Ingredients?

Published on:

In 2001, Forest Essentials set out to create a luxurious, hand-made
soap, created from the purest ingredients including sweet almonds, saffron and
Ayurvedic herbs. They believed in the extraordinary power of
traditional Indian Ayurveda and their objective was to create India’s first luxury quality, Ayurvedic products.

Purity of Intention

With a strong belief in its pure, fresh, natural, seasonal and organic ingredients, Forest Essentials was able to change the perception of Ayurveda being non-pleasurable to use and medicinal, by pioneering the combination of exceptionally efficacious principles and authentic recipes of Ayurveda and modern formulations. With the answer to the question “Why prefer natural ingredients?”, the brand redefined and revolutionized Ayurveda as Luxurious Ayurveda TM by introducing luxury Ayurveda products with extraordinary purity, pleasurable scents, and above all the highest possible efficacy and quality to create a completely new segment in the market that did not exist earlier. This underlying philosophy is aptly captured in the tagline of the Brand – The Luxury of Purity.

Being the only Indian Brand which is involved in the conception, formulation, manufacturing, bottling and sale of products in its own company owned stores, Forest Essentials’ essence of purity is ensured across all its pillars.

Purity of Ingredients

The benefits of natural ingredients in skincare products

For Forest Essentials, the gold standard of purity is to apply anything that one can eat, on the skin. A true experience of pureness are our bestsellers, which are infused with natural and the most authentic ingredients, sourced or extracted in their purest, pristine form and at hours of the day when they are known to be the most potent, so as to ensure their efficacy is not lost during the long and tedious making processes of our Ayurvedic products. This way, the herbs lend their benefits in the purest form, giving our products a delightful texture and creating a wonderful sensorial experience.

We use 100 times washed pure Cow’s Ghee (Shat Dhaut Grith),which is churned in a copper vessel and then infused with 100% pure Mysore Silk to prepare our handmade Silk Soaps and Ojas Sheet Mask. Aged Ghee (Puran Grith) lends its richness to our Tejasvi Lightening & Brightening Emulsion, allowing it to give the skin, a glow from within. Synonymous with ultimate luxury is the Forest Essentials Soundarya Range, which is infused with 24K Gold Bhasma that penetrates deep within the skin, thereby providing a radiant glow and increasing elasticity.

Purity of Place

Purity for Forest Essentials goes beyond using the purest of ingredients, it includes ensuring a pure environment where our products are manufactured. Our spiritual home and manufacturing base is located in the Himalayan foothills, part of one of Earth’s most otherworldly regions. This sublime, mystical terrain is home to delicate flora, snow-fed rivers and terrifying mountain peaks that form a natural barrier against the world’s impurities. One of the most powerful elements in this terrain is the emergence, torrential force and intrinsic purity of the river Ganga, revered throughout India.

This part of the world reverberates with unharnessed energy and many sages follow an austere way of life which make them ageless and impervious to the ravages of daily life.

Ensuring the same environment of purity inside our workshop in Lodsi, Uttarakhand, some of our products including the making of the cult favorite Advanced Eternal Youth Formula- Date and Litchi, specific mantras are chanted while the cream is mixed by hand, to lend positive vibrations to the product, which consequently energize your skin with their pure energy.
