Ayurvedic soaps

Karawan's ayurvedic soaps have been formulated by combining virgin coconut oil with essential oils and plant extracts. Each subtly scented soap is formulated from a synergy of plants with benefits recognised in Ayurvedic tradition. These soaps are suitable for all skin types, especially the most sensitive.

AYURVEDA

Ayurveda, the Sanskrit word for ‘science of life’, is an Indian tradition that has been practised for over 5,000 years. This healing practice is officially recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO). Based in particular on dietetics, phytotherapy, massage and meditation, it is a holistic natural medicine based on an in-depth knowledge of the laws governing the living world. It emphasises harmony with nature and uses specific plants and ancestral practices to achieve balance in body and mind.

The science of life

Ayurveda teaches that each individual is made up of a balance of doshas, which evolve according to our lifestyle, age and psychological state. Each of us has a dominant dosha, which is the source of our strengths and vulnerabilities. The Ayurvedic plants used in Karawan soaps are combined to match the so-called ‘tridoshic’ requirements and meet the skin's essential needs.

Our ayurvedic range

Karawan's ayurvedic range is designed with a holistic approach to beauty and well-being. Each product is an invitation to inner harmony and personal fulfilment. Ayurveda is also a philosophy of life where the links with nature are organic, where each ingredient in cosmetics or food is selected for its benefits. Karawan develops its soap formulas with an artisanal production unit that employs women as part of an integration process that enables rural communities to maintain a decent life thanks to their know-how.
