Reduces fine lines and wrinkles. Catering specifically to the Pitta face, this oil has been crafted to protect, restore and maintain healthy glowing facial skin.

Mongongo Oil rapidly polymerises under UV light to form a protective film on skin or hair thereby providing natural protection from UV and environmental pollutants. The Turmeric and Geranium essential oils along with the pure Tamanu Oil in this formulation help improve skin elasticity, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and protect the skin from infection and irritation. Additionally, Carrot Seed Oil which is high in moisturizing Vit. E and protective Vit. C, helps bring new life to skin and improve skin tone without clogging the pores.

Below is an easy-reference guide that you can use to quickly identify which Maruva Naturals variation of this product is right for your facial skin. Our formulations marry ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with potent African and Indian botanicals, ensuring that each product supports your Dosha. Use this guide to select the perfect formulation that aligns with your Dosha’s elemental traits.

Pitta (Fire & Water): Pitta embodies intensity, transformation, and clear energy—with a tendency toward sensitivity and heat. Pitta formulations are cooling and soothing, designed to calm inflammation and balance natural warmth.

Select this product if you identify with the below traits of Pitta facial skin:

  • Sensitive & Reactive: Pitta skin is prone to sensitivity and often reacts to environmental factors such as heat, sunlight, and harsh skincare products. Redness and inflammation are common concerns.
  • Warm Undertone: The skin often has a warm or reddish undertone, which may become more pronounced during times of irritation or sun exposure.
  • Combination Tendencies: Pitta skin can exhibit both oily and dry traits, typically showing oiliness in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) and dryness on the cheeks or other areas.
  • Prone to Breakouts: The natural heat of Pitta may lead to clogged pores and occasional acne or blemishes, particularly when the skin is out of balance.
  • Signs to watch for:
    • Redness and inflammation;
    • Sun sensitivity;
    • Acne and blemishes;
    • Uneven skin tone;
    • Heat-induced sensations.
