Unlike other beauty therapies, an Ayurvedic facial therapy is known to be the best for any skin type. It is a divinely relaxing experience that purifies, nourishes, and rejuvenates skin for a luminous glow. This nature based treatment uses dosha balancing organic essential oil blends with aroma therapy benefits to heighten the sensorial experience. Why slather your face with artificial products when you can use Ayurvedic herbs for facial?
