Discover Our PROCESS: Handcrafted Ayurvedic Skincare with Integrity
In a beauty landscape dominated by mass production and fleeting trends, taїla skincare was created to offer: authenticity, craftsmanship and integrity. Our skincare is rooted in centuries of Ayurvedic wisdom passed down through generations and each product reflects that heritage. Handcrafted in small batches in our Brooklyn Lab/Apothecary, every formula is an artisanal creation, guided by love and precision. To us, skincare is not just a routine—it’s a cherished ritual, one that nurtures both body and mind, in harmony with the rhythms of nature, exactly as it should be.
Preserving Youth: The Timeless Power of Ayurvedic Skincare
Ayurvedic skincare harnesses the ancient wisdom of botanicals to naturally preserve the skin’s youthful radiance. By using medicinal whole plant ingredients that are rich in antioxidants, vitamins and essential oils, Ayurvedic formulas help protect the skin from environmental stressors, reduce inflammation, and promote healthy cell regeneration. This holistic approach nurtures the skin’s natural barrier, keeping it firm, hydrated and vibrant. Over time, Ayurvedic rituals work to soften fine lines, improve elasticity, and reveal a glowing, balanced complexion—helping your skin age gracefully while maintaining its vitality.
A Heritage of Botanical Wisdom
At the heart of taїla is Shadoh Punnapuzha, our founder and formulator, whose journey through the realms of nature began in New York and deepened during her years spent in Kerala, India. Growing up immersed in an Ayurvedic lifestyle, she was surrounded by her family’s agricultural legacy, which dates back to the 1600s and is rich in holistic wellness and natural healing. Shadoh's father, a dedicated botanist, was instrumental in nurturing her understanding of the remarkable power of plants, instilling in her the knowledge of how botanicals can heal, restore and protect.
Living on an estate with its own Ayurvedic garden and an in-house Ayurvedic doctor, Shadoh experienced the ancient art of plant-based healing firsthand. This deep rooted connection to nature and the principles of Ayurvedic skincare inform every aspect of taїla’s philosophy, guiding us to harness the full potency of whole plants for skincare that nourishes from the outside in.
The Craft of Small Batch Skincare
Unlike mass-produced skincare, where efficiency often eclipses quality, taїla is committed to the art of small batch skincare production. Everything is done in-house in our Brooklyn Apothecary/Lab, allowing us to oversee every step of the process with meticulous care.
Each handcrafted skincare product begins with whole plant extracts, crafted over the course of days following the Vedic guidelines to ensure maximum nutrient retention. This slow extraction process allows us to capture the full spectrum of vitamins, minerals, and active compounds that your skin needs to thrive. By avoiding shortcuts and synthetic fillers, we ensure that what you put on your skin is as pure and powerful as nature intended.
This handcrafted approach allows us to maintain complete control over the quality and potency of every ingredient. Each batch is fresh, effective, and made with intention—bringing you closer to nature in its most vibrant form.
Sourcing with Integrity
One of the pillars of taїla’s philosophy is the ethical sourcing of ingredients. Shadoh takes great care in selecting botanicals that are not only effective but also sustainably and responsibly harvested. Each ingredient is chosen for its unique ability to support your skin’s natural functions, helping it to balance, heal and thrive.
For example, ingredients like Turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory properties and Ashwagandha, renowned for its ability to rejuvenate the skin, are carefully sourced to ensure their purity and potency. By working with whole plants rather than synthetic imitations, we tap into the dynamic relationship between nature and your skin. This approach allows our products to adapt to your skin’s needs, promoting healthy, radiant, and resilient skin.
Skincare That Works in Harmony with Your Skin
taїla's formulations evolve with your skin, working in harmony with its natural rhythms to support ongoing regeneration. Unlike synthetic counterparts that plateau, our botanically rich ingredients—packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids—continue to nourish your skin over time. They protect against environmental stressors while promoting a radiant, healthy complexion that only improves with consistent use.
Our KAYA flora body oil elixir, for example, combines firming Ayurvedic botanicals to smooth, tone and combat the appearance of cellulite, while deeply hydrating your skin. Its unique blend of ingredients works with your body’s natural processes, promoting long-term results that go beyond the surface.
Similarly, our NAYANA revitalizing eye balm harnesses the power of Ayurvedic ingredients like Brahmi and Manjishta to brighten, de-puff and rejuvenate the delicate under-eye area. This holistic approach to skincare means that you’re not just treating symptoms—you’re working with your skin to create lasting wellness and beauty.
The Power of Natural, Result-Driven Ingredients
At taїla, we embrace the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, recognizing plant medicine as a powerful form of healing. Every botanical we use is carefully selected for its scientifically-backed benefits —like Turmeric for brightening and Indian Sandalwood for healing acne-prone skin. Our small-batch skincare process preserves the potency of these plants, ensuring that each product delivers visible, transformative results. We believe skincare should be both luxurious and deeply effective, offering the healing power of nature without the synthetic additives that can compromise your skin's health over time.

taїla’s commitment to crafting high-performance, artisanal skincare is rooted in integrity. From the way we source our ingredients to the care with which each product is made, we prioritize quality over quantity, creating products that truly make a difference.
