Most home décor and curio stores these days house a section dedicated to skin, hair and body care products made from exotic fruits, flowers and herbs. I came across Aura Vedic’s Pomegranate & Grapeseed Face Polish in one such shop tucked away in suburban Mumbai. And I thought ‘This is worth a try!’

Everything about the product appealed to me – a simple, round plastic bottle with to-the-point package design; the cream, a beautiful shade of pink, soft and slightly grainy (since its chief ingredients are both seeds) with an aroma that’s both refreshingly fruity and lingering. To date, I hadn’t used a pomegranate-based cream scrub – let alone a face polish.

Great results in 5-10 minutes

This non-fuss product yielded the most amazing results after a 5-10 minute facial massage. I got soft, supple, hydrated skin without even the slightest hint of grease (which especially rates very high with me, since I have oily skin). My face looked mildly radiant but more importantly, polished. And even tough its fruity aroma was not long-lasting, the polish scrub managed to serve its purpose quite well.

Easy to apply and wash off

Unlike some facial products that need to be left on – regular masks or even peel-off masks – for complete exfoliation, this scrub goes deep within the skin and exfoliates it without drying it excessively. The polish’s quick application, washing off and good results are its greatest appeal.

Priced at Rs. 300, Aura Vedic’s Pomegranate & Grapeseed Face Polish stands true to the brand’s core claim – ‘Real Ingredient. Real Results.’ If you go to Aura Vedic’s website, you’ll find a plethora of products, either standalone or in packages, offering complete skin care for those yet to find something to suit their ideal beauty regime.

Manufactured by Gayatri Herbals Pvt. Ltd. (ISO 900), this Thane-based company’s range of products are available in quite a few well-known and elite stores and malls in Mumbai.

I’m glad a trip to pick up a humble coffee mug one completely aimless afternoon introduced me to an amazing beauty product.
