`Beauty meets spirituali­ty' for skin care brand

- ALEESHA HARRIS Aharris@postmedia.com

Inspired by her South Asian heritage, Brahmi Skincare founder Lily Chandra has created a curated collection of skin care products that aim to be at the intersecti­on of beauty and spirituali­ty.

Named after Brahmi, the feminine version of the Hindu god Brahma, the selection of facial oils, lip balm and more allows users to “create your reality” through self care, according to Chandra.

We caught up with Chandra to learn more.

Q For those who aren't familiar, what is Brahmi?

A Brahmi is a Whistler-based luxury and vegan clean beauty skin care line that is made in Canada. Brahmi has four thoughtful­ly curated products in our signature line, Divine Rose, for the face and skin. A daily moisturize­r, serum, lip plumping balm and 11:11 Magic Balm. Our products are formulated for daily use on all skin types, using natural and organic ingredient­s plus fair-trade essential oils.

Q Who is the target customer? A Brahmi's skin care products are suitable for all skin types, even those with acne, rosacea or sensitive skin. Our products are formulated with functional ingredient­s that are known to reduce inflammati­on and rejuvenate the skin.

Q What makes it unique? A

Brahmi is where beauty meets spirituali­ty. We combine a daily routine with a spiritual ritual so that you can have a moment with yourself. Our skin care products pair with Brahmi's guided beauty meditation­s that you can listen to daily. We have five-15 minute guided meditation­s for glowing skin, beauty, lip plumping, self love and the 11:11 meditation that gives the appearance of smoother skin on the forehead plus awakens your third eye. You can listen to these meditation­s daily before you apply your products for younger looking skin, relaxation and a spiritual uplifting.

Q Is there a “hero” product in the line?

A Our hero product is our Divine Rose Lip Plumping balm that naturally plumps and moisturize­s your lips. When you apply this balm, it leaves a shimmery and glossy finish while adding a touch of colour giving you the perfect pout. This highly loved product is a must have in your purse.

Q

A Our products range from $65 for our balms to $180 for our Divine Rose Face Cream.

What is the price range for your products? Q And where can people learn more?
