LOTUS SUTRA

Did you know that the enchanting lotus flower can be a marvellous ingredient for our skincare regime? Read on to know some interesting benefits of the flower.

Lotus oil is a red gold viscous liquid possessing an intense floral scent dappled with green notes. Besides argan and moroccon oil, lotus oil has now become one of the essential ingredients for manufacturing skin and personal care products like massage oils, bath soaps and body lotions. This exquisite oil is also used in aromatherapy as its rich fragrance provides a feeling of peacefulness.

This essential oil has three variants:

Blue Lotus oil – The most commonly used oil among the three, it acts as an anti-depressant, and thus helps in relieving stress. This also helps in conditioning hair and moisturising skin.

 Pink Lotus oil – This has the ability to calm and soothe.

 White Lotus oil – It prepares one for a meditative state as it strengthens one’s ability to connect with the higher self.

 Benefits:

– Lotus flower contains vitamins B and C, iron and protein, all of which combined help in improving the texture of skin and hair.

– A few drops of the lotus oil diluted with carrier oils like jojoba, apricot or almond oil.

– The flower oil also acts as an anti-ageing agent which can help repair proteins.

– If applied on the forehead, it can open the body’s centers of spiritual awareness.

Buying skin care products with lotus oil as one of its ingredients can prove to be a good investment for you. Some of the brands which are using lotus oil in curating their products are The Body Shop Fijian Water Lotus collection, Jhelum Loves Dreamcatcher Under-Eye Oil, Fanaa Fragrance Of Love and Intuition Third Eye Chakra Oil, and Vivel Lotus Oil Soap.
