No matter how old you are, in your 20s, 40s, or 60s, it’s never too early (or too late) to start caring for your skin. With each passing birthday, as you welcome all the new experiences and milestones, there are some unwelcome guests as well.
Your skin starts reflecting the passage of time, after all it goes through so much, from pollution, stress, smoking to chemicals and treatments.. Although it's all a part of life, you may not be all that psyched about some of these changes.
Whether its few fine lines here and there, or crepiness on your neck, a little more ‘jiggle’ on the arms and legs, these changes can be a little stressful as you try to navigate a new skincare routine to keep up with your skin’s changing needs.
There are 3 major signs which take your skin away from looking smooth, radiant and youthful over the years
Wrinkles and Fine lines
Saggy skin on the face
and body
Crepey Skin
All these are a part of the natural skin ageing process. Your cell regeneration processes slow down, and the building blocks of the skin lose the strength to keep your skin firm, smooth and supple. But does that mean you have to give up on smooth, glowing skin?
Certainly not!
But with the million options available in the market, you are constantly bombarded with trending products or unnecessarily expensive facials to complicated, painful treatments. With all of them promising to ‘turn back the clock’, finding the perfect solution can be absolutely daunting!
Gone are the days when skincare used to be just a blind purchase, merely meant for surface-level moisturisation.
Informed skincare enthusiasts like you have turned the focus of the skincare world to unique ingredients and their REAL benefits for skin!
Now, no beauty product truly has the power to totally reverse the signs of ageing. With that being said, there are very small number of active ingredients that can help minimize the visible signs of ageing.
You’ve heard of all the latest and trending actives, but there is ONE ingredient which has not yet been discovered by the West.
And no,
IT'S NOT animal-source collagen, or even plant-collagen for that matter...
No, IT'S NOT a modern-day scientific innovation that confuses you in some big-word lingo about what it really does!
It’s an ingredient that’s been around for literally thousands of years, unknown to the West for its benefits to the skin. Perhaps you’ve eaten it in a Mediterranean restaurant… or perhaps you had it in a lentil burger in a Vegan restaurant… perhaps you’ve never eaten it, but one thing we’re sure about – you’ve definitely never used it for dry, dehydrated skin, and you’re missing out!
With time and age, the skin gets older, dryer, thinner and duller... no new-age ‘fix-it's can really turn time around... but what if we told you a 5000-year-old science could give back the nutrition and care to your skin that years of toil and environmental conditions took away from it!?

Yes, Ayurveda, the ancient science of life has a ready-remedy for dryness, ageing, roughness, wrinkles and fine lines, and sagging skin.
It’s the gold standard, or shall we say ‘Black’ Gold standard, of skincare for mature skin.

An Ayurvedic Black Gold, this Age-Old Age-Hold Ingredient has stood the test of time. It’s been around for literally thousands of years, and if the test of time doesn’t prove how effective it is...well, what does?!

Described in Ayurveda as ‘Masha’, it is extensively written about in the ancient Ayurvedic text'Charaka Samhita' which can be dated back to about 5000 years ago. In fact, there is a chapter ‘Mashaparni Bhriteeya Adhyaya’ dedicated solely to explain the goodness of these Black lentils.
A natural ‘time-turner’, it has 10 times more phosphorous than any other foods in its category!
And if you’re wondering what the secret behind its fame is, then it is the fact that this is an extremely enriching food known for firming, toning and deeply moisturising skin that’s matured significantly over the years.

And if you’re wondering what the secret behind its fame is, then it is the fact that this is an extremely enriching food known for firming, toning and deeply moisturising skin that’s matured significantly over the years.
Regularly consumed as a food item in South-East Asia, Black Gram is deeply strengthening and nourishing with high levels of protein (25g/100g), potassium (983mg/100g), calcium (138 mg/100g), iron (7.57 mg/100g), niacin (1.447 mg/100g), Thiamine (0.273 mg/100g), and riboflavin (0.254 mg/100g).
To truly understand how and why Black Gram is beneficial for mature looking skin, it's important to look at the Ayurvedic processes that lead to visible signs of ageing on our skin.

In our life, we go through three stages of life: Kapha, Pitta, and Vata – which are also the three doshas or bio-elements in Ayurveda.
Kapha consists of the elements of earth and water and is associated with oiliness, juiciness, heaviness. Kapha is the first stage of life – just think of a baby’s juicy and plump skin and the expression “baby soft skin”.
Pitta consists of the elements of fire and water and is associated with heat, sharpness, and determination. Pitta is the second or middle stage of life – just think of a teenager’s acne and hot temper, or a young adult’s drive and ambition.
Vata consists of the elements of air and space and is associated with dryness, lightness, alertness and creativity. In the Vata stage of life, we experience dry, rough and sagging skin, we may feel cold more often, but also reach maturity, wisdom, grace and mastery. During this time, it’s important to focus on practices that are warming, stabilizing, grounding and nourishing.
Now that you know that mature, sagging, or crepey skin is a result of the dry Vata stage of life, let’s find how Ayurveda’s Black Gram can help rejuvenate Vata skin!
Also known as an ‘uber nourisher’in ancient Ayurvedic texts, Black Gram is revered as a natural Vata pacifier. It imparts smoothness and moisture to the skin and keeps it feeling plump and soft.
The oil derived from this nutritious kitchen-ingredient is also known to promote youthful, firm and tight looking skin. It targets the 3 most common signs of ageing which are fine lines & wrinkles, crepiness and sagging skin.
Its intense moisturising and nourishing powers, along with its smooth, non-sticky and non-greasy texture are what make it a suitable ingredient for any skincare – be that for the face or for the body!
Particularly recommended for thin, frail, delicate or translucent-looking skin, Black Gram:

Well, you did not really explore Ayurveda this deeply before... or...no one ever attempted to even do this before!
This little black secret is an intense source of protein that’s almost secretly revered in Ayurveda as the age-defying, dryness-beating, skin-plumping agent that DOES NOT FAIL YOU!
One unique quality for which it is specially prized in Ayurveda and qualifies it has a key ingredient in any skincare product - Unctuousness- unlike any other emulsifier, cream or butter in the whole world!
This unctuousness is an innate quality of this intensely nourishing lentil and, when used through the right modality, can do wonders for the skin, unlike any other moisturiser!
In case you are thinking of trying Saffron as part of a quick home remedy, here are a list of tips:
For enhancing radiance:
Mix one teaspoon of sandalwood powder with two to three strands of saffron, and two spoons of milk. Wash and wipe your face with a cloth before applying this face mask. Keep applying until your face and neck region is covered in a thin coat. Ensure to follow a circular massaging motion while applying. Rinse off with cool water just when it starts to dry.
For improved skin tone and complexion:
Soak a few strands of saffron in milk for 2 hours. Smear this milk all over your face and neck. Wash off after a few minutes. To get the best results, use it regularly.
For skin that appears clear and blemish-free:
Mix 5-6 holy basil (tulsi) leaves with 10-12 strands of saffron to make a fine paste. Apply this on the face. Wash off with cold water after 10 to 15 minutes. Alternatively, you can also apply saffron soaked milk on your face, like explained above, twice a day to help clear the look of blemishes.
But before you go searching your nearest grocery store’s aisle looking for Saffron strands that are going to cost you more than you think, hear this out -

"Amazing oil that really does turn back the clock!
I LOVE this oil! I am 64 years of age and have rarely ever left the house without make-up. I have always felt self conscious with my very fair skin and the feeling of looking 'washed out'. I started using Yauvari Amplified Youth Spring less than a year ago and go without foundation most days now. My skin looks and feels so soft and dewy, the lines on my face and neck have softened and my skin has a.., glow. I have purchased several other oils in the range now and am delighted with them all. Best of all, they are natural products…! I will continue to recommend these oils to anyone who is looking for a new direction in their skincare routine.
-Esther G.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Best Moisturiser Ever!
“Hands down the BEST moisturiser I’ve ever used. I saw immediate results with the first application as my age lines were plumped with moisture and visibly smoother as a result. Not greasy and lasts all day without making my skin oily. The smell is fabulous too. I look forward to this part of my daytime/nighttime ritual. This oil is absolutely divine.

"I love this body booster oil!"
As a mature woman, I am always looking for better skincare products. When I saw this item and read the ingredients, I just had to try it and I'm SO glad I did! The oil glides on my damp skin effortlessly and has no oily residue. It just makes my skin feel so soft and I swear it appears that my skin is firmer, too! I liked it so much, I asked about using it on my face as well. The Ayurveda Experience quickly responded stating that it was not intended for facial application. Now I can't wait to order the new Yauvari Amplified Youth Spring facial and decolette oil with Black Gram and see how much more youthful my face, neck and decolette will be!
- Reed U.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Wow"
I have had scaly dry skin since my 20s and have tried a lot of natural oils and body lotions. I have been very impressed with this oil. It smells rather divine after it soaks in (a bit strong going on). My skin looks so lustrous after putting it on. It gives a wonderful (dry not oily looking) sheen. I have noticed the very dry crepey skin above my knee is feeling softer longer. I recently got back from a trip to the desert which always leaves my legs flaky and cracked, but using this while I was there, there was no damage! I am looking forward to seeing how my skin responds after 6-8 weeks!
- Rebecca B.

"Best buy ever!"

On my legs, especially after saving, my arms and decolletage, everywhere. My skin feels so much more resilient, crepiness gone, glowing. Treat yourself, you are worth it.
