APSARA: THE STORY BEHIND THIS PRODUCT
Seeta is aware of the fickle nature of youth. Youth requires care if it is to be prolonged, especially when ageing has been accelerated by 21st century problems like pollution. In her family, the women's age is never obvious... because they have the secret of keeping age at bay in their old manuscripts— the secret of kumkumadi and saffron elixir; an oil for the face that reduces hyperpigmentation, reverses sun damage, and restores the skin’s natural glow. Just a light application of the face elixir ensures that Seeta too will age like her aunts—gracefully and slowly.
Old School and Seeta hold a common curiosity that leads us to constantly search for and improve recipes that have been in our families for generations, because we believe in preserving traditions while also building on them for the future.
