What is the Pure By Jajee Skin Care Kit?

The Pure By Jajee Skin Care Kit is a curated collection of five 100% pure, single-ingredient Ayurvedic powders: Multani Mitti, Kasturi Haldi, Rose Petal, Orange Peel, and Sandalwood. Rooted in a 240+ year legacy (est. 1779), this kit provides a DIY approach to professional-grade skin care. It's your complete ritual for detoxification, brightening, and a flawless, natural glow.

Each powder is sourced and prepared to be your all-in-one solution for common skin concerns—from oil control and acne to dullness and uneven tone. Mix and match to create custom face masks, Ubtans, and scrubs tailored to your skin's needs.

Rooted in Ayurveda

The Pure by Jajee Skin Care Kit is curated based on the classical Ayurvedic principles. Here are the specific Shlokas from the Charaka Samhita and other foundational Ayurvedic texts like Bhavaprakasha Nighantu about the efficacy of these ingredients for skin care:

सौराष्ट्री तु वरा तिक्ता स्निग्धा विषहरा सरा। मुखरोगहरी वृष्या वर्णकृत् सा रसायनी॥

वनहरिद्रा तु तिक्ता स्यात् कण्डूकुष्ठविनाशिनी। मुखकान्तिकरी शस्ता त्वचां दोषविनाशिनी॥

तरुणी तुवरा तिक्ता हृद्या पित्तहरा लघुः। अनिलामयदाहघ्नी त्वचां वर्णप्रसादिनी॥

नारङ्गत्वक् कटुस्तिक्ता सुगन्धिः सोष्णवातनुत्। मुखवैरस्यहृत् रुच्या दीपिनी त्वक्विशुद्धिकृत्॥

चन्दनं शीतलं रूक्षं तिक्तं ह्लादनं परम्। पित्तास्रविषदाहघ्नं वर्ण्यं दुर्गन्धनाशनम्॥

Backed By Science

• Multani Mitti (Fuller's Earth)
  
  • Botanical Name: Hydrated Aluminum Silicate (Natural Clay)

• Kasturi Haldi (Wild Turmeric)
  
  • Botanical Name: Curcuma Aromatica
  • Bioactive Compound: Ar-turmerone & Curcuminoids
  • Benefit: Luminosity – Acts as a natural tyrosinase inhibitor to brighten the complexion and fade post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) without staining.

• Rose Petal
  
  • Botanical Name: Rosa Centifolia
  • Bioactive Compound: Phenolics & Anthocyanins

How do these Ayurvedic ingredients benefit your skin?

Each jar contains a potent, finely-milled botanical designed for specific skin concerns:

• Multani Mitti: A mineral-rich clay that magnetically draws out deep-seated impurities and excess sebum to refine pores and mattify the skin.

• Kasturi Haldi: A non-staining bio-brightener that inhibits melanin production to fade dark spots and unveil a luminous, bridal-like glow.

• Rose Petal: A natural pH balancer that deeply hydrates and soothes inflammation while imparting a soft, petal-like texture to the skin.

• Orange Peel: A Vitamin C powerhouse that provides gentle enzymatic exfoliation to dissolve dead skin cells and boost collagen for firm, radiant skin.

• Sandalwood: A premium cooling agent and astringent that tightens the skin, reduces redness, and repairs damage caused by environmental heat.

Q: Why choose Pure By Jajee?

• Heritage Quality: We have specialized in pure Ayurvedic sourcing since 1779.

• Customizable: Unlike pre-mixed masks, our individual jars let you tailor the ratio to your specific skin type (Dry, Oily).

Q: How do I make a DIY Ayurvedic face/skin mask?

1. Oily & Acne-Prone Skin (The "Clear & Matte" Ritual)

• The Blend: 1 tbsp Multani Mitti + ½ tsp Kasturi Haldi + ½ tsp Orange Peel.

• The Activator: Rose Water or Cucumber Juice.

• Why it works: Multani Mitti pulls out excess oil, while Orange Peel and Haldi act as natural antiseptics to prevent breakouts.

• Duration: 15 mins or until almost dry.

2. Dry & Dehydrated Skin (The "Hydrating Glow" Ritual)

• The Blend: 1 tbsp Rose Petal + 1 tsp Sandalwood + ½ tsp Kasturi Haldi.

• The Activator: Raw Milk, Honey, or fresh Malai (Cream).

• Why it works: Rose and Sandalwood soothe the skin barrier, while the fats in milk provide the moisture that dry skin lacks.

• Duration: 10–12 mins (do not let it get "cracked" dry).

3. Sensitive & Redness-Prone Skin (The "Calming" Ritual)

• The Blend: 1 tbsp Sandalwood + 1 tbsp Rose Petal.

• The Activator: Chilled Aloe Vera Gel or Coconut Milk.

• Why it works: This is a "Pitta-pacifying" blend. It lowers the skin's surface temperature and reduces inflammation without any harsh exfoliation.

• Duration: 10 mins.

4. Combination Skin (The "Balance" Ritual)

• The Blend: 1 tsp Multani Mitti (for T-zone) + 1 tsp Orange Peel + 1 tsp Rose Petal.

• The Activator: Plain Yogurt (Curd).

• Why it works: Yogurt contains lactic acid which hydrates while the powders manage the oil in the T-zone and brighten the cheeks.

• Duration: 15 mins.

Q: How do I store these pure powders to maintain their 1779 legacy potency?

A: Since our powders are 100% waterless and preservative-free, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Always use a dry spoon to scoop the powder to prevent moisture from entering the jar, which ensures a shelf life of up to 24 months.

Q: Will the Kasturi Haldi leave a yellow stain on my face or bathroom towels?

A: No. Kasturi Haldi (Wild Turmeric) is a specific cosmetic variety known for its cream-colored or pale-yellow tint. Unlike kitchen turmeric, it is non-staining and won't leave your skin yellow, making it perfect for daily use.

Q: Can I use these powders as a daily cleanser or only as a weekly mask?

A: You can do both! For a daily cleanse, mix a small amount of powder (like Sandalwood or Rose Petal) with water to create a thin paste, massage for 30 seconds, and rinse. For a deep treatment, leave a thicker paste on for 15 minutes as a mask.

Q: Why does the Multani Mitti feel tight on my skin as it dries?

A: Multani Mitti is a natural clay that contracts as it evaporates, which helps "pull" impurities from your pores and stimulates blood flow. If you have dry skin, we recommend mixing it with milk or honey to prevent it from over-drying your skin.

Q: Is the Orange Peel powder safe for sensitive skin since it contains Vitamin C?

A: Yes, because it is the whole botanical peel and not a concentrated synthetic acid, it is much gentler. However, we recommend sensitive skin types mix Orange Peel with Sandalwood and Rose Petal to buffer the natural citric activity.

Q: Are there any synthetic fragrances added to the Rose or Sandalwood powders?

A: Absolutely not. The aroma you experience is the natural volatile oils present in the raw botanicals. At Pure by Jajee, we believe true luxury lies in the authentic, earthy scent of nature—just as it was in 1779
