Radiant skin is a clear reflection of a clean, purified & nourished body from within. One of Ayurveda’s most celebrated formulations, Triphala, meaning 'three fruits', works deeply to create this inner harmony to impart a clear complexion externally.
The Sacred Trio
Triphala is a synergistic blend of three sacred fruits:
-
Amalaki - It is rich in Vitamin C, it nourishes, rejuvenates, and boosts collagen.
-
Bibhitaki - It detoxifies, purifies the blood, and supports lymphatic drainage.
-
Haritaki - It is known as the 'King of Medicines', as it strengthens cellular regeneration and slows aging.
Together, they form a rasayana, a rejuvenating elixir that renews the body and restores radiance at the deepest level.
Triphfala & Skin Health from Ayurvedic Lens
In Ayurveda, skin is considered a mirror of internal health. When digestion, elimination, and circulation are balanced, the skin glows naturally. Triphala supports this inner balance in several ways:
Cleanses & Detoxifies - Triphala gently purifies the colon and liver, body’s main detox organs. When these are functioning efficiently, toxins (ama) are eliminated, and the skin becomes clearer, smoother, and more vibrant.
Enhances Digestion & Nutrient Absorption - A sluggish digestive fire (agni) often manifests as dull, lifeless skin. Triphala strengthens agni, supporting deeper assimilation of nutrients that feed the skin from within.
Balances the Doshas - Triphala balances the three doshas. Vata dosha imbalance causes dryness & wrinkles, pitta dosha imbalance causes inflammation, skin sensitivity & acne, kapha dosha imbalance causes skin congestion & puffiness. Triphala’s tridoshic nature restores equilibrium, bringing a natural, even-toned radiance to the complexion.
Rich in Antioxidants - Triphala is abundant in Vitamin C and polyphenols, potent antioxidants that protect against environmental stressors, reduce pigmentation, and promote youthful skin.
Purifies the Blood & Lymph - By supporting rakta shuddhi (blood purification) and healthy lymphatic flow, Triphala promotes a fresh, healthy glow that reflects vitality and balance.

Svarasya Insight - The Beauty of inner Cleanse
Triphala purifies the body, calms the mind and opens up the channels (srotas) for prana (life force) to flow freely. When prana circulates unobstructed, the skin glows, eyes brighten up and the spirit feels light.

-
Beauty Yoga practices that support detox and lymphatic flow.
