Below are just a few of the wonderful things people are experiencing after using Shaffali Skincare products. We are humbled and thrilled to hear that the products, and accompanying rituals of how to use them, continue to amaze and inspire our rapidly growing fan base of enlightened beings…
Shaffali Skincare is one of the most thoughtful and beautiful lines that I have ever come across. One look at the founder, Shaffali, and you will want to live, eat and treat your skin as she does. She uses natural ingredients like turmeric, which reduces inflammation and hyperpigmentation, and fights free radical damage.

As a yoga and pilates instructor, I find it extremely important to take care of my entire body inside and out. I eat organic foods, exercise daily, breathe, meditate and spend quality time with my husband, family and friends. It is extremely important for me to love the skin I’m in. Our skin is the largest organ of our body and I want mine to be beautiful, soft and to have that natural glow. I love Shaffali Skincare because it uses all natural ingredients and keeps my skin looking and feeling as young and fresh as a newborn baby’s. The anti-aging Orange Blossom + Neem Facial Moisturizer (with neroli - which is awesome) is one of my all time favorites–it just seeps into my skin and a little goes a long way. I love using the detoxifying Pineapple + Peppermint Exfoliant on my face once or twice a week; but, I also use it to slough off dry skin on my heels and to diminish dimples on my thighs. I like the Lavender + Turmeric Cleanser as well…especially the turmeric in it (which is also in the exfoliant). I keep reading about the benefits of turmeric and have yet to see it ever used well in a skin care line. Shaffali Skincare products stay true to the principles of Ayurveda and I love and respect all that they stand for. I can truly feel good about using something that is in line with the way I live my life.

As a Certified Holistic Health Counselor, I highly recommend these products to anyone with sensitive skin and people who want to make sure what they put on their body is as pure as what they put in their body. The Orange Blossom + Neem Facial Moisturizer is clean feeling, smells lovely and offers pure, simple ingredients. Best of luck!

Orange Blossom + Neem Facial Moisturizer
Using Shaffali Skincare products is a meditative ritual. The time I spend using the detoxifying Pineapple + Peppermint Exfoliant and Sage + Sandalwood Earth Mask are my moments to zen out and just be. I started using her products six months ago and my skin is much softer and clearer. My face feels and looks more radiant and that makes me feel good from the inside out.

I just started using my Shaffali products last week and I LOVE THEM! My face looks and feels great and because of my love of Ayurveda, the quality of the product and the great smells, I get excited about my face ritual every day. I can definitely tell that you have put a lot of effort and love into the product! Thank you!

The Face Ritual Set
As a Holistic Health Practitioner I advise my clients to purchase Shaffali Skincare products. In fact, I have recently launched a program that promotes revitalization of body & soul in three short months. Shaffali Skincare products are the line that I am using as part of this program. The first experience I had with Shaffali was a spa-style service… with her personal instructions of warm & cold rinse, steam and circular rubbing etc! The aromas and the stimulation of the skin during the process was a delight and the end results were profound! I began using the full set of products right away! At-home use is such a blessing. The quality of the products always makes me feel special and the aromatherapy has a real impact on my experience. As a forty-year-old Holistic Health Practitioner I always get compliments on how young I look… and I intend on using Shaffali to keep it that way! Thanks to Shaffali for creating such beautiful products for my skin!

Shaffali Skincare products made my skin breathe again! Particularly, the detoxifying Pineapple + Peppermint Exfoliant made out of natural ingredients. The sensation of rubbing my skin with that product felt like soft, perfumed and wet sand under the shower. I never experienced a shower like this. I would deeply recommend that product for the natural pineapple and peppermint scent, the texture and the result. Your skin glows after the experience.

Pineapple + Peppermint Exfoliant
I recently took my Orange Blossom + Neem Facial Moisturizer on my European trip – the size was very convenient and packable for such a purpose. Even though the trip itself was kind of a nightmare – I got very sick in Armenia, and am still coughing over 3 weeks later – the moisturizer was a sweet little comfort I enjoyed every day. The smell gave me a connection to something stable and familiar as I moved from one strange hotel to the next, and reminded me that I have friends and a home in New York. That was a huge comfort! Of course it’s great moisturizer and all, but the associations, carried through the very subtle scent, were kind of a mnemonic lifeline for me.

Orange Blossom + Neem Facial Moisturizer
I am very particular when it comes to skin care products. Unfortunately, many skincare lines contain harsh, chemical ingredients that are counter-productive to a healthy, glowing complexion. Shaffali Skincare products offer a pure and natural alternative, emitting a fresh aroma as though they had just been whipped up in the next room! Most importantly, they are in keeping with my personal skin care requisites: natural ingredients & cruelty-free.

Jill’s Favorite Product: Mango + Lavender Body Scrub
Being in the restaurant business, the idea of having a “smoothie” for my skin just appealed to me. A friend recommended Shaffali Skincare products highly so I decided to try them – and I was blown away! I have never taken the time to really care for my skin but giving myself the luxury of the “rituals” couldn’t have worked out better. Not only do I feel better & relaxed by giving myself personal time, but I really see an improvement in the way my skin looks. Working late hours have taken their toll and at 36 I’m not getting any younger but your products seem determined to changing that. Thanks Shaffali for opening my eyes to taking better care of myself and for creating products that live up to your philosophy of holistic skin care. Quality ingredients make all the difference not just on menus!

Brett’s Favorite Product: Orange Blossom + Neem Facial Moisturizer
The Pineapple + Peppermint Scrub creates a wonderful cooling sensation from the peppermint, while the pineapple enzymes help slough away all the ‘city dirt’ I accumulate on my face….. My skin is much smoother and my makeup application goes much quicker after using this scrub. Because of this economy, I had held off buying a new facial scrub until I could research and find where I would get the most ‘bang for my buck.’ I have been consistently using this scrub for over 2 weeks, and I feel I have at least 2 months of use left. A little goes a long way because of the very well-milled jojoba exfoliating agent.

Pineapple + Peppermint Scrub
I am a yoga student at Ja Yoga in Long Beach & tried your samples last week. Within a week I bought everything except for the cleanser & bought an extra Orange Blossom + Neem Facial Moisturizer for my daughter. I can’t tell you how amazing your products are. Honestly, I have never noticed ANY product that really made my skin look and feel better…. My daughter, well, lets just say she knows her way around Sephora, etc., (haha) – She says she can’t believe the moisturizer – just incredible. Thank you so much for putting this out….by far the best I’ve tried & in my 59 yrs. I’ve tried A LOT!!

These products are the real deal. They (gasp!) actually work! My absolute favorite is the Sage + Sandalwood Earth Mask…I leave it on for several hours and can tell a difference in the quality of my skin right away.

Shaffali’s Detoxifying Pineapple + Peppermint Exfoliant lets my skin breathe. I love how it cleans up clogged pores, scrubs the deep-seated dirt off my face leaving it so fragrant and supple! Thanks Shaffali, for this extraordinary exfoliation experience.

Pineapple + Peppermint Exfoliant
The only product of the Shaffali line I’ve tried thus far is the detoxifying exfoliator, and I must say I am very much pleased with the results. I have relatively good skin, and up until recently, never gave my skin or skin products much thought. After crossing the 30 mark, I decided to start caring for skin now as a preemptive strike against father time. I ventured out to try a few different products and found that Shaffali’s Pineapple + Peppermint Exfoliant works GREAT. It left my skin feeling invigorated, soft, smooth, and very “cool” for hours. The all-natural ingredients of the exfoliator give it a very pleasing aroma – I felt very relaxed afterwards, almost as if I had undergone an aromatherapy session. Overall, the product is very effective, non-oily, aromatic (yet not too effeminate), and is made of all-natural ingredients which are all big plusses for a low-maintenance guy such as myself. Looking forward to sampling the rest of the line!

Lavender + Turmeric Cleanse
Shaffali Skincare is a fantastic skin care line that really makes my skin glow. Before I began using Shaffali I used brands that felt very clinical. These products not only nourish my skin but also give me a better result with a natural feel. I use the Lavender + Turmeric Cleanse and Orange Blossom + Neem Moisturiser everyday and it starts me off with a good day. I would definitely recommend this to my friends, especially here in London as city and work life can take it’s toll on the skin and this has been the perfect solution.

When I first met Shaffali and she told me about her skincare products and the philosophy behind her line, I was absolutely lost. The extent of my skincare regimen was in reaching for the most inexpensive aftershave off the shelf at Duane Reade – and the results definitely showed. Through her incredible knowledge and passion, Shaffali convinced me to give a basic moisturizing and exfoliating ritual a try – if only for a week. A bit skeptical, I agreed to give it a go– and I’m definitely glad I did! The products are of extremely high quality, the philosophy behind them is well developed, and the results are simply astonishing. I’m a customer for life.
