“Beautiful product..Very light oil, love the fragrance!

I used to be scared of using oils as I have oily and acne prone skin. As a flying attendant my skin is exposed to rough conditions and needs special care. I used to spend a lot of money on international brands but now switching to natural with this wonderful oil. I really don’t like to use any compact or foundation anymore! The price is extremely affordable and the packaging is really extraordinary...”

Yashtimadhu (Glycyrrhiza Glabra)   

A powerful skin protectant, liquorice has anti-inflammatory, immune-boosting effects. 

Liquorice extract also has demonstrated efficacy in treating atopic dermatitis, an - allergy-related, intensely itchy swelling of the skin. Glycyrrhizin, the main component of liquorice root, protects against UV-B light induced damage in the context of human melanoma cells.

An extract of liquorice called glabridin reduces inflammation resulting from UV light exposure. In fact, when a liquorice extract rich in glabridin was applied to the skin before exposure to UV light, it helped prevent the redness and pigmentation that would normally have occurred. 

Liquorice extract also reduces melanin synthesis, suggesting that it may have applications in preventing and fading unsightly “age spots,” or areas of hyper-pigmented skin. The depigmentation property of liquorice is due to its ability to inhibit the tyrosinase activity of melanocytes*  

Interstingly, Yashitmadhu is found to have significant effect on melanogenesis used in sun care. **

“Oil but not oily

When I heard about Safranayam I was not ready to use it as it is oil and during this humid season (June to September) in Bengal putting oil over skin creates problems but when I use it as per instruction, I find it just mixed with my skin and no residue left, only beautiful aromatic refreshing feeling throughout the day. Now I use it everyday after bathing which keep my skin glowing and properly moisturised...”

WHAT IS THE 5-PRONGED VARAASA PROMISE? 

TRADITION - 

The formulae are taken directly from or inspired by ancient classical texts and have a long history of safe use. The products are manufactured using the ancient practices and procedures recommended in the texts. 

EFFECTIVITY –

 At TAE, effectivity of the products is prime. Being a TAE brand, Varaasa too brings to you products that actually work. 

PURITY - 

Our raw-material selection process follows painfully stringent guidelines and we only use the best available raw materials for our products.

QUALITY - 

Lastly, just because a product is natural does not mean it cannot make a quality experience. Our finished products are visibly, noticeably premium quality products with each batch going through a battery of lab tests to ensure you get only the very best. 

AFFORDABLE LUXURY –

At Varaasa, we do not believe that a natural, quality self-care product should be so expensive that you’re forced to give in to inferior quality products in the long run, simply because natural is more expensive. It hurts even more, when those expensive natural products do nothing more than smell or feel good! Varaasa promises to bring powerful, effective self-care products that are expensive to make, given the quality it offers, and yet make a luxurious experience for you and your loved ones without ripping your pockets!
