nilakanthi

Long ago, the gods and demons gathered to churn the great Ocean of Milk, seeking the nectar of immortality. From the depths of the cosmic waters arose treasures beyond imagining—celestial jewels, sacred herbs, radiant blossoms, and at last, the goddess Lakṣmī herself, embodiment of beauty and abundance. Yet with these blessings came a deadly poison, fierce enough to destroy creation.

To protect all beings, Lord Shiva drank the poison, holding it in his throat, which turned a brilliant blue. From that moment, he was known as Nīlakaṇṭha—the Blue-Throated One, guardian who absorbs the world's toxic negativity and maintains cosmic balance, embodying both destruction and preservation.

Inspired by this sacred myth, we offer Nīlakaṇṭhī, the feminine form/ vibration, of this divine power. Just as treasures and nectar emerged from the churning, this oil is infused with the earth’s own gems:

Organic ingredients of:

Saffron, the golden strand of radiance, brightens the complexion and reduces pigmentation.

Rose petals, soft as celestial blossoms, soothe, hydrate, and restore balance.

Babchi (Bakuchi), a natural source of bakuchiol, refines texture and diminishes fine lines.

Boswellia (Frankincense), a sacred resin, tones, firms, and calms the skin.

Gotu Kola, the herb of longevity, stimulates collagen and supports youthful elasticity.

Myrrh, ancient and protective, nourishes and aids repair.

Marigold (Calendula), radiant and gentle, heals, protects, and reduces redness.

Blue Tansy, with its calming azulene, embodies Shiva’s blue throat—soothing inflammation and restoring harmony.

Infused in milk, echoing the cosmic ocean itself, these botanicals unite to form a modern nectar of beauty and balance. Nīlakaṇṭhī Face Oil is more than skincare—it is a ritual of transformation, blessing all who use it with radiance, grace, and renewal.
