Indian Queens’ Skincare Secrets: Ancient Beauty Rituals
For centuries, Indian queens followed luxurious plant-based beauty rituals, using flowers, natural pastes, oils, and pure fragrances to maintain glowing, youthful skin. Their routines were rooted in Ayurvedic wisdom, slow beauty, and nature — the same philosophy that inspires Ancient Living.
Royal Bath Rituals (Snana)
Queens began their day with purifying bath rituals made of turmeric, rose petals, sandalwood, vetiver, and Multani Mitti. These natural blends helped brighten the skin, refresh the senses, and restore radiance.
Fresh Botanical Face Packs
Traditional ubtans made with Multani Mitti, turmeric, rose water, chickpea flour, saffron, and aloe kept their skin firm, clear, and naturally glowing.
These ancient formulations inspire Ancient Living’s plant-based face packs, crafted to bring back the ritualistic beauty of the past.
Flower-Infused Oils
Hibiscus, jasmine, and wildflower oils were gently massaged into the skin and hair to nourish, soften, and strengthen from within.
These timeless rituals continue today through Ancient Living’s pure and aromatic oils.
Natural Winter Glow Rituals
During the winter months, queens turned to warm, moisture-rich plant blends to keep their skin soft, supple, and radiant.
Ingredients like turmeric, aloe, saffron, almond oil, and gentle natural pastes protected the skin from dryness and restored its natural glow.
Ancient Living carries forward these winter traditions with deeply hydrating, plant-based skincare.
Nature-Inspired Aromas
Royal palaces were perfumed with vetiver mats, rosewater sprays, and wildflower essences to uplift the mood and create a serene, calming aura.
This aromatic legacy continues in Ancient Living’s soothing room mists, crafted to bring balance and tranquillity into modern spaces.
