Glimpse – July 2019

T

he little pearls of treasured

beauty wisdom they so lovingly

shared with us turned out to

be true. Now, when we are

caught up with so much around, we

look forward to indulge and pamper

ourselves with some of the most

expensive but inorganic products but

thankfully, there are few brands that

are prioritizing thoughtfully curated

products full of healthy, natural

ingredients that are pocket friendly. I

came across one such brand - Global

Beauty Secrets, which brings in the

beauty rituals from the kitchens and

courtyards of women with different

cultural legacies. Global Beauty Secrets

caters to three key categories – Body

Care, Facial Care and Hair Care. The

product basket is inspired from 6

cultures namely Indian, Japanese,

Turkish, Egyptian, Aztec and Greek.

Involving no animal testing, all the

ingredients used in GBS products are

sourced from natural origins, are 100%

vegetarian, and recyclable.

Sawarna Nir, the

woman behind

Global Beauty

Secrets brings to

us her heritage.

Born in a spiritual

family, she grew

up under the

spell of natural

remedies. For her

skincare routine,

she followed her

daadi k nuske

and using natural

ingredients is now

the key foundation

to all her products.

. It made her realize
early on in life that
real beauty nurtures
spirit and reflects
through the skin.

She went on to take inspiration from

the soul, science and nature of various

cultures, rituals and women around the

world. Global Beauty Secrets not only

offers products with exotic ingredients

but also cultural rituals. Its packaging

celebrates the diversity of ancient

civilizations and oneness of collective

wisdom.

Global Beauty Secret products hold

certain nostalgia for me: the way they

smell, the way the packaging feels in

your hand, the memories of watching

my grandmother apply organic recipes.

It's a bit of magic.

P.S. it is an effortless way to make

natural beauty a way of living.

We learn a lot from our mothers and grandmothers, spanning all sorts of life issues and topics — from relationship wisdom to family

recipes passed down from generation to generation. When it comes to beauty and hair, things were a lot less complicated then. Yet,

these women seemed to always look flawless.
