By inhibiting tyrosinase, sandalwood gently down-regulates excess melanin synthesis, helping fade dark spots and unify tone. Meanwhile, Nagakesar acts as a vascular stimulant, improving capillary flow and dermal nutrition. This enhanced microcirculation oxygenates skin cells, revives their vitality, and reduces the blotchiness that often masks brightness. Together, they don’t just lighten - they clarify and energise the tone at its vascular core.

Saffron and Manjistha smoothens skin & brings radiance by working on both pigmentation and metabolic sluggishness. Saffron’s crocin moderates melanin activity while fueling cellular renewal, clarity, and youthful function. Manjistha detoxifies the lymph and blood, reducing inflammatory pigmentation and glycation-related dullness.

Raw milk, yogurt, and honey restore suppleness and surface light reflection by deeply hydrating and renewing the epidermal layer. Lactic acid in both milk and yogurt offers gentle exfoliation, sloughing off fatigue-tinted dead cells while the probiotic and enzymatic profile strengthens the skin barrier and microbiome.

Beetroot boosts dermal blood flow, leading to a natural flush and heightened tone in skin dulled by stress, screen-time, or poor circulation. Tuberose adds a rare floral bioactivity - it improves cellular respiration and reduces stress-induced inflammation, creating a relaxed, oxygenated, and visibly re-energised skin state.

Almond, sesame oil, and Daruharidra build that resilience by fortifying the skin barrier and neutralising daily oxidative stress. Almond oil infuses the skin with vitamin E and ceramide-supporting lipids, essential for sealing moisture and creating a naturally luminous finish. Daruharidra, rich in berberine, clears microbial imbalance and inflammatory congestion, refining tone and preserving long-term clarity and texture.

Sandalwood gently tightens pores and calms inflammation. Its natural astringent effect enhances the skin’s surface coherence. Nagakesar supports this further by improving microcirculation, delivering nutrients and oxygen more efficiently to the skin’s outermost layers—visibly refining texture and evening tone. Raw milk and yogurt, rich in lactic acid and essential fats, gently loosen dead cells while hydrating and replenishing the lipid matrix.

As the lepa sets on skin, it forms a soft occlusive barrier that traps natural heat and moisture. This mild thermal effect gently dilates superficial blood vessels, enhancing microcirculation and initiating a cascade of dermal activity. The micro-climate beneath the pack mimics the skin’s ideal healing environment - warm, moist, and oxygen-rich - allowing metabolic processes to speed up. This not only supports detoxification through increased lymphatic flow but also primes the skin to better receive and absorb topical nutrients.

Under occlusion, the skin’s intercellular lipids soften slightly, loosening the tightly packed stratum corneum without disrupting its integrity. This temporary softening enhances permeability. Nutrients that are normally blocked by the skin’s natural barrier now find deeper access pathways, allowing for more effective delivery of actives into the viable epidermis. This phase is critical for delivering bioavailable phytonutrients, lacto-compounds, and fatty acids to the cells that need them most.

As circulation improves under the warmth of the lepa, the capillaries become more active, boosting oxygenation and waste removal at a cellular level. This enhances the skin’s metabolic exchange, ensuring a two-way flow—nutrients are pulled in, toxins are flushed out. The dermal vasculature essentially "wakes up," fueling cell turnover and encouraging fibroblast activity, which supports collagen synthesis and overall dermal renewal. The result is skin that is not just nourished, but functionally revitalised.

With the skin barrier relaxed and microcirculation heightened, nutrient absorption peaks. This is when skin drinks in vitamins, enzymes, amino acids, and prebiotic actives from the face pack. These molecules interact with skin cells in real time—lactic acid encourages cell renewal, natural fats reinforce lipid layers, and herbal bioactives modulate inflammation and pigmentation. Each compound finds its target pathway, working either on the surface, within cells, or at the skin’s microbiome level to support radiance and resilience

As the pack begins to dry, it gradually re-establishes the skin’s acidic mantle. The slight tightening helps seal in nutrients while reducing puffiness and superficial redness. Simultaneously, yogurt and enzymatic compounds present in the lepa help regulate skin’s microbial diversity - supporting beneficial strains while inhibiting dysbiosis. This rebalancing of the skin ecosystem enhances immune defense and reduces chronic low-grade inflammation, a hidden enemy of glow.

Once the lepa is removed, the skin enters a post-treatment rebound phase - its texture is visibly smoother, circulation remains elevated, and the skin's receptivity to hydration and emollients is heightened. Barrier function is reset, cell signaling is active, and the skin exhibits improved reflectivity due to enhanced surface uniformity.

Radiant skin reflects light uniformly, and this optical effect is heavily influenced by the smoothness of the stratum corneum. When dead skin cells accumulate unevenly on the surface, light scatters irregularly, causing skin to appear dull, textured, or ashy. On the other hand, when the skin surface is even and hydrated, light reflects cleanly, creating a natural “glow” or sheen.

Skin radiance is also powered by good microvascular circulation. Blood flow delivers oxygen and nutrients to skin cells, while flushing away toxins. Poor circulation from stress, cold weather, or fatigue can make skin look sallow and lifeless. Ingredients that stimulate circulation boost blood flow to the dermis, encouraging a rosy, oxygenated glow. Other techniques like facial massage also help by activating capillaries and reviving dull complexions through increased perfusion.

Hyperpigmentation, sun spots, and uneven melanin distribution scatter light and create a patchy appearance. Glowing skin isn’t necessarily fair—it’s even-toned. When melanogenesis is overstimulated (by UV exposure, inflammation, or hormonal shifts), it disrupts this uniformity. Glow-boosting formulas often include melanin modulators like licorice and vitamin C, which reduce excess melanin production and help visibly unify skin tone. The result: more consistent light reflection and a visibly brighter face.

Water plumps the skin from within, while lipids lock moisture in and create surface sheen. Both are essential for a healthy glow. Without water, skin looks dull and shriveled; without lipids, it looks flat and matte. Aloe vera draw water into the epidermis, while oils seal it in. Together, they restore the hydro-lipid film, resulting in dewy, bouncy, glow-filled skin. This balance is especially critical in colder weather when both water and lipid levels dip.

Radiant skin reflects the health of its epidermal turnover. Young skin renews every 28 days, shedding old cells and revealing newer, brighter ones. But with age, stress, or inflammation, cell turnover slows, and dead cells linger on the surface, making skin look grey and lifeless. Retinoids and exfoliants like lactic acid speed up this turnover. Regular renewal ensures that fresh, reflective cells reach the surface more quickly—fuelling a consistent, natural glow rather than a temporary shine.

Pollution, UV rays, and blue light bombard the skin with free radicals, which oxidize lipids, dull cellular metabolism, and degrade collagen—leading to flat, uneven, and tired-looking skin. Antioxidants neutralize these radicals, reviving skin tone, preventing hyperpigmentation, and preserving collagen clarity. They also boost cellular energy (via mitochondrial function), so the skin not only looks but also behaves younger and brighter, holding its glow longer through the day.
