A quest for radiant and healthy skin led me to the enchanting world of Sadhev, a luxury Indian skincare brand deeply rooted in Ayurveda. In this blog post, I am eager to share my personal experience with two remarkable products from Sadhev’s collection – the Ayurvedic Overnight Repair regimen duo. As someone who values natural, vegan, and organic skincare, Sadhev’s commitment to these principles resonates with me. Join me as I delve into the rich history of Sadhev, explore the carefully curated ingredients from their sustainably grown sanctuary, and recount the soothing ritual of incorporating Sadhev’s Aloe Vera & Saffron Gel and Kumkumadi Tailam into my nightly skincare routine. Get ready to witness the transformative journey of embracing Ayurveda with Sadhev.
Unveiling the Roots: Sadhev’s Ayurvedic Heritage
In the vast landscape of skincare, Sadhev emerges as a beacon of luxury and tradition. Founded in 2019 by Lasakan Cholayil, a scion of a vaidyar family with roots tracing back to Kerala, Sadhev is a testament to the enduring legacy of Ayurveda. Lasakan and his mother, Jayadevi Cholayil, launched Sadhev with the aim of reintroducing organic skincare in a world inundated with chemicals and plastics, drawing on their 200-year-old ancestral wisdom in the 5000-year-old art of Ayurveda.
Sustainable Sanctuaries and Global Botanicals: The Essence of Sadhev
Available on their website sadhev.com, Sadhev’s products are a fusion of traditional Ayurveda and responsibly sourced, pure ingredients. The brand’s commitment to sustainability is evident in Sadhevana, their 80-acre organic sanctuary in South India. Ingredients, both indigenous and global, are carefully selected to create exotic infusions. From Moroccan Argan Oil to Saffron Petals from the Valleys of Afghanistan, Sadhev ensures the use of only the purest and choicest elements in every creation.
Crafted Wisdom: The Ayurvedic Alchemy of Sadhev’s Products
Backed by a team of experienced Ayurvedic vaidyars, Sadhev’s creations are handcrafted with expertise to suit specific skin and hair conditions. My recent purchases, the Ayurvedic Overnight Repair regimen, consist of Sadhev’s Aloe Vera & Saffron Gel with Kumkumadi Tailam and Sadhev’s Kumkumadi Tailam.
My Ayurvedic Ritual: Using Sadhev’s Overnight Repair Regimen
Taking a cue from Ayurvedic wisdom, the nightly ritual begins with the application of Sadhev’s Aloe Vera & Saffron Gel with Kumkumadi Tailam. As the cap is lifted, the enchanting fragrance of saffron fills the air, transforming each skincare ritual into a sensory journey (see those generous strands of saffron on top?!). Gently massaging it onto my face using upward strokes, the gel is a miraculous fusion that heals dry skin, treats acne, hydrates, nourishes, and minimizes signs of aging, all while being quickly absorbed.
Following this, a few drops of Sadhev’s Kumkumadi Tailam grace my skin. Kumkumadi Tailam is a treasured elixir that has been a cornerstone of traditional Indian beauty rituals for centuries. Saffron, with its antioxidant properties, lends the oil a golden hue and is believed to promote a radiant complexion.
The exotic night serum, with ingredients like Saffron, Aloe Vera, Sandal, and Vetiver, imparts a golden Vedic glow. It helps tighten the skin, improves uneven skin tone, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and aids in repairing damage caused by pollution and sun exposure during the day.
My Experience: Embracing Ayurveda with Sadhev
As someone with dry and dehydrated skin, especially during the winter season, Sadhev’s products feel like a soothing balm. The natural, vegan, and organic essence brings a sense of assurance, knowing that my skin is receiving the care it deserves. The Ayurvedic infusion not only aligns with my values but also provides a sense of well-being. I’m optimistic about witnessing the transformative effects on my skin with continued usage, making Sadhev an integral part of my skincare journey.
