From Down Under to Ayurveda: Exploring the Use of Botanicals in Skincare

Ayurvedic treatment and the use of Australian botanical ingredients in skincare have plenty of things in common, especially the emphasis on all-natural, plant-based ingredients.

Ayurvedic medicine is a conventional medical system that has its roots in India and dates back more than 5,000 years. It places a focus on using natural components, such as plants and herbs, to advance health and wellness. Turmeric, neem, and amla are just a few of the Ayurveda substances with potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory characteristics that might be helpful for the skin.

Similarly, due to their inherent healing qualities, Australian botanical elements are frequently included in A-Beauty skincare products. Australia is home to a wide variety of plant species, many of which have long been utilised medicinally by Indigenous Australians. Kakadu plum, which is high in vitamin C and has potent antioxidant qualities, and tea tree oil, which is well-known for its antibacterial and antifungal properties, are two examples of Australian plant components utilised in skincare products.

The use of Australian botanical ingredients in skincare and Ayurveda medicine both place a strong emphasis on encouraging natural healing and wellness via the use of plant-based ingredients. Although the precise components and phrasing may vary, the basic principle is usually the same.

At Science Skincare our products are rich in Australian botanicals like the Tea Tree in our Cleanse + Detox Carbon Cleanser used for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, the richest known natural source of vitamin C from Kakadu Plum in our Clarity Triple C Serum and the gentle exfoliating effects of Caviar Lime in our Cleanse + Soothe Gel Cleanser.
