Black Gram
Also known as an 'uber nourisher' in ancient Ayurvedic texts, Black Gram is an extremely potent moisturizing and unctuous ingredient for an Ayurvedic oil that not only moisturizes but also nourishes all 7 tissues of the body. Although Black Gram found its fame as a staple food in South-East Asia and the Middle East, Ayurveda has known of its powers to deeply nourish and strengthen skin, for centuries.
Black gram is an extremely nutritious, enriching food as it contains high levels of protein (25g/100g), potassium (983mg/100g), calcium (138 mg/100g), iron (7.57 mg/100g), niacin (1.447 mg/100g), Thiamine (0.273mg/100g), and Riboflavin (0.254 mg/100g).
The oil derived from this nutritious kitchen-ingredient is known to promote youthfulness, firm and tighten skin, and manage the look of sagginess and crepiness. Its intense moisturizing and nourishing powers, along with its smooth, non-sticky and non-greasy texture when added to an oil are what make it a suitable ingredient for any skincare - be that for the face or for the body!

Himalayan Rock salt
But moisturization is not the only thing that your saggy skin needs. To keep it looking plump, firm and ample, your skin also needs intense hydration that can prevent it from looking dull and dry.
One such Ayurvedic ingredient that can promote both moisturization and hydration is Himalayan Rock Salt, that can help maintain skin’s natural barrier by supporting hydration.

Velvet Bean
With an exterior similar to that of Black Gram, slightly bigger however, Velvet Bean, as its name suggests, is known for endowing skin with a soft, velvety texture. Being a rich source of proteins, lipids, minerals and 60 major phytochemicals, Velvet Bean provides nourishing, rejuvenating and soothing comfort to any skincare it’s added to.

Nutsedge
No discourse on herbs that manage saggy skin can be complete without mentioning Nutsedge.
A strong youthfulness promoter that helps soften the look of UV induced aging, Nutgrass has been in use in ancient Ayurvedic skincare for centuries because of its richness in fatty acids, vitamins and flavonoids.

Elemi Gum
Elemi gum, derived from the resin of the Canarium luzonicum tree native to the Philippines, has a distinctive aroma that can be described as fresh, citrusy, and balsamic. The scent is often characterized by a harmonious blend of lemony and pine-like notes, with a slightly sweet and resinous undertone.

Castor Oil
Castor oil is rich in fatty acids, particularly ricinoleic acid, which provides deep hydration to the skin. When used alone, Castor oil can be too thick to spread. However, in the Balaayah, it is blended with Sesame oil and ayurvedic herbs, bringing to you just the softness and the richness of castor oil without the heaviness!

Guaiac Wood
Guaiac wood, sourced from the Guaiacum tree, exudes a captivating and complex fragrance characterized by a rich, woody depth with subtle smoky undertones. This aromatic profile is complemented by an earthy warmth and a touch of sweetness.

Bergamot Fruit
This essential oil is extracted from the peel of the Citrus bergamia, a small citrus fruit that resembles a cross between an orange and a grapefruit and naturally, carries the citrusy freshness of these fruits forward but with a floral twist.

Ginger
spicy, peppery, warm and earthy ginger brings just the right amount of stimulation and sweetness to a grounding aroma.
A L L I N G R E D I E N T S
Neroli
the honeyed, floral hints of citrus add another dimension to this aroma as it settles in. Together with Bergamot fruit, Neroli ads just enough of a hint of sweetness to balance the aroma, giving it that after-note that may make you want to smell it again and again!
