About Ayurvedic Facials
Why I Do This
After moving back to Bangalore, I couldn't ignore how much our salons rely on chemicals, when Ayurveda is right here in our roots. My focus is on skin health from the inside - not just the so-called 'glow' but real, lasting balance.
What Goes On Your Face
- I only use plant-based, cruelty-free stuff. Most ingredients come from old-school Ayurvedic places like B.V. Pundit's.
- The oils are not just for shine. They're meant to nourish your skin deeply and give it actual strength - what we call shakti.
- No same-for-everyone facials. I check your skin, ask about your concerns, and get input from our in-house Ayurvedic doctor before starting anything.
Some Treatments I Offer
- Kumkumadi tailam facial: Saffron, turmeric, and traditional oils for brightening, softening lines, and targeting pigmentation. Super for a natural radiance.
- Manjistha detox facial: Uses Manjistha to purify, even out tone, and sort out oily skin.
- Navara facial: Warm potli (herbal pouch) massage with medicinal rice to nourish, prevent sagging, and fight dryness.
- Fresh fruit/veg facial: Beetroot, carrot, whatever's in season, made fresh for exfoliation and tan removal. (Needs a day’s notice.)
- Plus a few more, like Eladi for skin tightening and Ghee Sutra for soothing.
The Experience
I want you to feel relaxed the moment you walk in - calm, no rush, detox tea in hand. Think of it as a breather for both you and your skin.
What To Expect
No quick fixes here. If you’re up for a journey to real Ayurvedic skin rejuvenation, I’d love to help you get there, step by step.

My Story
Namaste, I’m Gayathri. Swã is my dream—where ‘self’ meets Ayurveda. After living abroad, I came back to Bangalore and saw every salon loaded with chemicals. Hamare ajja-ajji (our grandparents), they used haldi, methi, kitchen stuff, and their skin had holatana (shine) you don’t see now. I wanted a women-centric space, all Ayurvedic, no shortcuts. Some days, progress is slow, but seeing women from Italy to Dubai walk in for real care—makes me proud. Swã is my way of giving back. Come, experience this bliss.
My Work
Ayurvedic Facials & Therapies - Kumkumadi facial therapy, Ayurvedic ghee facial, and Abhyanga body massage—all pure, plant-based, cruelty-free.
Natural Hair & Nail Care - Plant-based hair colouring and Ayurvedic nail care—no chemicals, just nature’s goodness.
Holistic, Long-Term Care - We focus on skin shakti (strength), not just glow. ‘Botox through Ayurveda’—lasting health, not quick fixes.
Inclusive & Safe Space - Women-centric, but men welcome evenings. Special packages for seniors, homemakers, and all ages.
The Swã Experience - It’s more than a treatment—calm, therapeutic, people travel far for our SWA Mantra: patience brings true results.
