Natural Beauty. Rooted in Ayurveda. Inspired by Africa.

Your skin is your body's largest organ and a canvas for what’s going on inside. So, it’s time to start thinking differently about your skincare routine.

Maruva blends Indian Ayurvedic principles with African botanicals to bring you a range of all natural skincare products. Our products are designed to form part of a holistic approach to daily self-care.

“Ayurveda” is a Sanskrit word that translates to the “science of life” and is deeply anchored in the principles of natural healing. Recognising that every individual is unique, Ayurveda promotes health and wellness through balanced integration of the environment, body, mind and spirit.

Maruva Naturals is on a mission to reconnect with our roots. Borrowing from Indian and African ancestral beauty practices, we’re bringing skincare back home.

A beauty brand by us, for us - an ode to our rainbow nation!

Learn about Ayurveda

What is Dosha?

Ayurveda is based on the concept that the five elements, earth, water, air, fire and space, are the building blocks of every lifeform, including our bodies. Each person has a unique combination of the five elements making you who you are on a physiological, emotional, and mental level – think of this as a personalised blueprint to your health!

Your unique combination of the elements is referred to as your “Dosha.” The three doshas are Vata; Pitta; Kapha.

Guided by these fundamental concepts, we at Maruva formulate our products with the understanding that each person requires a customised approach to their beauty concerns. The African botanical extracts we use have therefore been categorised according to the Ayurvedic Doshas and all our finished products reflect this blend of ideologies and cultures.

Maruva Naturals is a brand based on sustainable and fair trade procurement policies. The brand is a firm proponent of the development of a circular economy to minimise waste and recycle Earth’s limited resources. Oils are only extracted from the indefinitely reusable components of our selected plant species, i.e. the fruits. Oils are purchased, based on fair trade principles from certified harvesters, who are independently audited. The importance of sustainable harvesting is clearly communicated to the member harvesters and communities resulting in the diligent conservation of the natural resource. Maruva Naturals is a cruelty free brand. We do not test any ingredient or finished product, either directly or indirectly, at any stage of our operations on animals.

Natural. Cruelty Free. Ethically sourced.

We unite ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with Africa’s untamed botanicals and India’s sacred flora —both celebrated for centuries for their beautifying and therapeutic power.

Testimonials

  • Gracia

    Maruva's products are really amazing and I don't say that a lot. The Dosha testing made everything so much easier and my skin's really loving it!

    Your products worked so well, I was a bit scared at first because other products I’ve used never worked and still made my skin feel dry. However, my skin has been responding very well to Maruva, it looks plump and hydrated!

  • Anesca O.

    I am absolutely amazed by this brand! I used this Vata Day cream for my dry skin and I couldn't be happier! As a person who suffers from very dry skin, I was looking for a product that would provide me with hydration, without leaving my face oily. It left my skin super hydrated the entire day. I would definitely recommend Maruva Naturals to anyone.

  • Nkite M.

    This night cream is hydrating and light, doesn’t feel heavy on your skin. Love it for the day and night time.
