The Bath & Being Experience

Welcome to the wilder, slower side of self-care. I’m Pooja, and this is where I share my handmade rituals—from turmeric-infused glow-ups to repurposed saree gifting. Let's make your routine a little greener.

This is the feeling I chase with every product I create. It's that moment when you use something made from real, living botanicals and your skin just knows. It's not just skincare, it's a little piece of the wild, bottled just for you.

Meet our Utopian Dream Turmeric Facewash, the heart of our collection. This infographic shows you exactly why it's a crowd favourite. It's formulated to be gentle, effective, and earth-friendly, bringing a natural glow to your daily routine.

Come into my studio while I whip up a fresh batch of our Utopian Dream Turmeric Facewash. I use gentle surfactants and amino acids, so it cleanses without stripping your skin. Adding turmeric essential oil gives it that extra anti-inflammatory and brightening boost.

Gifting is a love language, and I believe it should be beautiful and sustainable. Here’s how we wrap our wellness hampers in repurposed old silk sarees using the Japanese Furoshiki method. It’s a zero-plastic, zero-tape approach that makes each gift truly special.

This is our Golden Hour Moisturizer, a rich blend of Mango Butter and Seabuckthorn oil that customers have loved for years. It’s deeply nourishing for dry skin and has a grounding, earthy fragrance from Vetiver and Patchouli essential oils.

For skin that feels as dry as a desert, I created Coco Loco. This is a heavy-duty body butter made with a buffet of four plant butters: organic kokum, cocoa, shea, and mango. It smells like coffee and vanilla, so you can feel and smell like a treat.

This is my Ajji, my grandmother and my biggest supporter. I made this special saffron and rose moisturizer just for her. Seeing her joy reminds me why I do this. Every handmade product is an act of love, a tradition passed down.

About this collection

Everything you see here is made by me in my small studio in Arekere, Bangalore. I don't just sell skincare; I hand-pour it. If you’ve ever wondered why your moisturizer smells like actual plants or why a soap feels different than the mass-produced stuff, it’s because I refuse to use synthetic fillers. My ingredients list is short, readable, and 100% natural.

At Bath & Being, 'handmade' isn't just a label; it’s how I spend my 2 AMs. I started in my kitchen and now run a small studio where I whip up fresh batches of moisturizers and cleansers. I work with raw ingredients like cold-pressed oils, wild turmeric (Kasturi Manjal), and plant butters. You won't find parabens or synthetic fragrances here.

Why choose handmade? Because your skin knows the difference. Whether it’s the Utopian Dream turmeric facewash for acne or my Coco Loco body butter for dry skin, I formulate for results, not mass-production convenience.

I also believe in sustainable gifting. That’s why we use the Japanese Furoshiki method, wrapping hampers in upcycled silk sarees instead of plastic. It’s better for the planet and, honestly, it just feels better to give. Looking for something specific? Whether you need a routine for sensitive skin or a custom hamper for a haldi ceremony, I’m just a message away. Let’s bring some of that wild, botanical magic into your day.
