To prepare your skin and hair for Karva Chauth, it’s essential to focus on hydration, nourishment, and
enhancing your natural glow. Begin by drinking plenty of water in the days leading up to the fast to keep
your skin hydrated and plump. Exfoliating with a gentle scrub helps remove dead skin cells, revealing a
fresh and radiant complexion. Follow up with a rich moisturizer or serum, preferably one containing
hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerin, to lock in moisture. Applying a natural face mask
made with ingredients such as honey, yogurt, or aloe vera will further nourish your skin and enhance its
glow. Don’t forget to apply sunscreen, even if you’re indoors, to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
For those looking for a deeper boost, in-clinic treatments like chemical peels can exfoliate and brighten
the skin, while hydrafacials offer deep cleansing and hydration, leaving your skin glowing. Microneedling
with PRP is also an excellent option for enhancing skin texture and radiance before the big day.
For your hair, a warm oil massage with coconut or almond oil will nourish your scalp and improve
circulation. Applying a hydrating hair mask made with yogurt or avocado will add shine. To strengthen
your hair further, consider professional treatments like PRP therapy for hair rejuvenation or professional
deep conditioning treatments. Starting a hair vitamin well in advance will also boost hair health.
Minimizing heat styling will also help avoid dryness and damage.
By combining at-home care with targeted dermatology treatments, you can ensure that your skin and
hair look healthy, radiant, and glowing for Karva Chauth.
Gaurika Rai CEO of Warp ‘n Weft says,
Karva Chauth is a beautiful celebration of love and commitment, and what better way to honor it than by wearing something meaningful, like your wedding saree, your mother’s vintage Banarasi, or a special gift from your mother-in-law. Reimagine your wedding saree by pairing the classic red Banarasi with an emerald buti blouse for a bold contrast, and drape an emerald Kadhwa weave dupatta to elevate the look. Styling your mother’s saree with a contemporary blouse and bold accessories adds a modern touch to its rich history. Or, give new life to a gifted saree by adding a belted blouse or statement jacket, blending tradition with something unexpected. These thoughtful ideas not only refresh your look but also weave sentimental value into your Karva Chauth ensemble, making it a true reflection of love and tradition.
Imperial Brocade Banarasi Handwoven Red Silk Saree: Classic ‘Tanchoi’ style of weaving with floats that form a double overlay texture on the base construction of the silken textile increasing the three-dimensional luster of this saree. This technique is used to create the red pearl-like royal Imperial Brocade Heirloom with a resplendent gilded gold border adding the bridal dazzle. A fabric of preference from yarn to couture for the Maharanis in India, this silken gorgeousness makes the Saree drape a dream. Mulberry silk or ‘Katan’ is used as warp and weft and a double twilling weft of colored silk, the double twill weave talks of a provenance that is classic and understated luxury.
