Nilaa Silk: Natural Wonders
By Amy Spagnola
Skin care can be risky business. The cosmetics aisles are filled with endless shelves of lotions and potions where many seem like supposed skin savers, but actually contain countless chemicals. These so-called nourishing products are often chocked full of unnatural substances.
To the rescue: Nilaa Ayurvedic Skin Care.
This 100% chemical free line prides itself on its devotion to artificial-free products. Not surprisingly, the buzz around these beautifiers has attracted the attention of many celebrities including Kate Hudson (a fan of the Eye Crème) as well as Jennifer Aniston, Paris Hilton and Robert Downey Jr.
The line uses no sulfates, parabens, synthetic fragrance, glycols, petrochemicals, synthetic colors, artificial preservatives, silicons and other not-so-nice ingredients. With no epidermal evils, Nilaa Silk’s products infuse the skin with all natural minerals and vitamins that are rich in antibacterial, antiviral and antioxidant properties. The products work to strengthen and revitalize the skin, not to mention protects it from environmental pollutants.
Roja Spray
Suitable for all skin types this moisturizing spray smells like a summer walk through a rose garden. In fact, the main ingredient, rose protects the body with its antiviral properties and reduces puffiness and wrinkles. This is an ideal treatment to restore hydration to the skin after cleansing or to act as layer between skin and make-up. It absorbs immediately and feels as though the skin has been coated in a mist of moisture.
Botanical Body Glow Lotion
This moisturizer is bliss in a bottle. The vague scent of almond and lemon drop linger as the sweetly scented hydrator empowers the epidermis with hemp, bergamot and healing German chamomile. Good-bye to dry skin.
Cleansing Crème
The divine whipped white crème is a cure for facial flakiness. It calms and heals the skin without detergents but manages to do a fine job of cleansing. It contains organic green tea, milk and honey for a spa-like face treatment.
Holy Tulsi Face Crème
No wonder this crème is called ‘holy.’ It’s divine. It saturates the skin with carrot seed, jojoba and comfrey. The herb Tulsi heals and repairs the face while the other ingredients fight wrinkles, roughness and restore elasticity. The crème is slightly thick to the touch but applies as light as air and leaves a subtle sheen.
