Ayurveda Meets Modern Science 

Rooted in Ayurvedic wisdom and modern science, Refining Lotus Gel Crème is lightweight yet potent. The formula delivers lasting hydration while unveiling a smooth, radiant complexion. In many traditions, the lotus represents spiritual awakening and transformation, a reminder that something truly radiant can emerge from even the most challenging environments, and a message we have resonated with since the beginning of RANAVAT. Its rare bloom makes it all the more sacred, a quiet symbol of strength, clarity and grace.

Reviews

I have been using this

"I have been using this along with the saffron essence, serum and sunscreen for about 3 weeks now. I should say that my skin is starting to look a lot better, especially the uneven skin tone I have. Products are amazing but too pricy for me. Not sure if I will continue buying"

"I brought a few of the Ranavat skincare range including the Brightening Saffron serum, the essence and the Refining Lotus Gel Crème to start with. I’ve religiously used all the products and have just brought my second set of the same products. I love them especially the Brightening Saffron Serum it feels so lush on my skin. The product smell divine and I’ve also brought the Brightening Retinol Eye Crème to try this time. So glad I’ve changed my skincare to Ranavat products very happy with them."

Ruchi B. (5/5)

"This is not your night time moisturizer in general. I use it before putting on foundation or just a day time dryness solution. I have the pre re formulated formula and it never smelled right but this one smells really good. And excellent when the office Ac or heater makes my face feel dry."
