So a new email alert from Forest Essentials caused not just my phone to buzz but also my heart.
It was an invite to experience Ayurveda the Forest Essentials way and needless to say, the invite was as beautiful as everything else about the brand.
At the event, my response to an extensive questionnaire was analysed by a qualified Ayurvedic Doctor and it was established that I was predominantly of the Vata Dosha type. The doctor recommended some simple lifestyle changes apart from addressing my skin issues of dryness, breakouts and aging.
I was told to have loads of warm water, practice Pranayam and to try the Date and Litchi cream for the night. Having milk is also supposed to be good for me, yay!! because I love my milk and the no dairy revolution that's going around, robbed me of my one indulgence - Milk!
The consultation was followed by some product sampling - pure heaven - trust me. If it hadn't been for the haunting memories of, lessons in proper behavior and etiquette, from my convent school teachers, I would have bathed myself in every product variant at the store..
After all the sampling, I must say that the one product I love and lust over is the Soundarya Facial Cream - pure luxury in a bottle.
My quest to understand the brand Forest Essentials better, led me to Tanushree Saxena (Senior Manager, Marketing and Brand Communtication). Here is my interview with Tanushree.
