Our Origin Story
Founded by Michelle Ranavat, a first-generation Indian American and mother of two, our brand was born from a desire to honor Ayurvedic traditions in a way that feels modern, inclusive, and grounded in science. What started as a personal journey of self-discovery after experiencing severe post-partum hair loss and skin issues has evolved into a movement redefining Ayurvedic beauty for the modern world.
Our Ethos: A Royal Ritual Reimagined
At RANAVAT, we believe skincare is more than routine—it’s a royal ritual rooted in heritage and elevated by innovation. Inspired by the timeless practices of Ayurveda, our formulas harness the power of Ayurvedic ingredients—including hand harvested saffron from Kashmir—combined with advanced, clinically backed ingredients to deliver visible results with a luxurious and sensorial experience.
Luxury Redefined
At RANAVAT, we believe true luxury isn’t defined by price—it’s defined by purpose. We honor the artistry of skilled craftspeople, like our sixth-generation Kansa artisans and the family-owned farms in Kashmir that hand-harvest our saffron. To us, luxury is a tradition passed down through generations, rooted in intention, expertise, and cultural richness. It’s about excellence, heritage, and the hands that make it all possible.
A Process for Potency
RANAVAT formulas are thoughtfully made in India, using time-intensive Ayurvedic techniques that unfold over many days—far
longer than the typical few-hour manufacturing processes used in conventional skincare. Each product is custom developed alongside Ayurvedic doctors and expert chemists, blending the best of Ayurvedic and modern science. Clinically tested and meticulously crafted, our process ensures every product delivers powerful, luxurious results.
