Why 99% of vitamin C serums fail—and this one doesn’t

Most Vitamin C serums use cheap, unstable ascorbic acid—a harsh, water-based form that oxidizes fast, burns sensitive skin, and breaks you out after week two.

We use Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate, an oil-soluble form of Vitamin C shown to penetrate deeper and remain active longer than conventional formulas.

Penetrates deeper into the skin’s lipid barrier
Remains active up to 80x longer inside skin cells
Delivers all the glow—with none of the burn

Ayurvedic Vitamin C Face Oil

A blend of gentle, effective botanicals and next-gen Vitamin C designed for skin that’s been through irritation, inflammation, or intense treatments.
Hydrates deeply without greasiness
Brightens skin tone and fades dark spots
Supports collagen production for smoother texture
Calms redness and strengthens your barrier
Retinol Results, Naturally
Our Ayurvedic Vitamin C Face Oil features Bakuchiol, a plant-based compound shown in clinical studies to deliver results similar to retinol, without the irritation.

Unlike traditional retinoids, Bakuchiol does not cause peeling, dryness, or inflammation, making it a safer option for sensitive, post-treatment, or compromised skin.




This is especially important for those with post-procedure skin, rosacea, or barrier damage, where traditional retinoids can lead to irritation, redness, or increased sensitivity.



Bakuchiol supports collagen production, improves skin tone, and helps maintain skin integrity, without the risk of over-exfoliation or discomfort.



Together with our stabilized Vitamin C and anti-inflammatory plant oils, Bakuchiol helps deliver visible results while protecting even the most delicate skin.

Smoother texture and tone
Supports collagen and firmness
Gentle enough for daily use
Safe for sensitive and post-treatment skin

Undo the damage your skin takes on during the day

Undo the damage your skin takes on during the day

At night, your skin doesn’t need another active or exfoliant.It needs time to recover from everything it’s been through that day, sun, makeup, pollution, over-cleansing, and stress.

Our Ayurvedic Vitamin C Face Oil helps hydrate where you’ve dried out, soothes areas that feel raw or reactive, and helps your skin reset without overloading it.

It absorbs quickly with no residue and has a soft, natural citrus scent that makes it easy to come back to every night.

Many women recovering from chemo, retinol burns, or skin procedures say this is the only product their skin tolerates.

The BEST vitamin C serum for your face

“After many years of trying to find rituals that relate to my roots in Kerala, India - I came across this serum early last year. Not only have I made it a regular staple of my skin routine; I’ve raved about it to my friends and family and they too can’t get enough.
This serum isn’t sticky at all! It’s light weight, aromatic and does the job of hydrating and help heal skin. Highly recommend for those with dry skin for that extra glow!”

Skincare Essential

”I'm obsessed with this serum! It feels so luxurious on my skin and smells incredible. I actually compared the ingredients to some pricier vitamin C serums, and Kerala Ritual’s are cleaner and better quality, which really surprised me. I use it every night, and it gives me this beautiful, hydrated glow without feeling greasy or heavy. My favorite thing is combining it with my ice roller when I want to feel a little extra pampered. It’s honestly become a part of my routine that I look forward to.”

Its unique blend of natural ingredients like Rosehip Oil, Ashwagandha, and Squalane infuses the skin with essential nutrients, providing deep hydration and brightening benefits. I have noticed a significant improvement in my skin's texture and radiance after using it regularly. It doesn't leave any greasy residue or heaviness, making it suitable for all skin types.”

Before and after comparison

When I first opened the box, I could smell the citrus and was immediately happy! I'm 56 years old and have had a difficult time finding a serum I am happy with, where I can actually see results. I am tired of spending a ton of money on serums and lotions that don't work. I started using this at night only, and after about 2 weeks, I noticed a difference in the evenness of my skin tone, even with a face full of freckles. My skin is much softer, and the lines around my eyes and cheeks have softened. I had a deep wrinkle on my top li,p and it has reduced considerably! It only takes a few drops to cover my face and neck, so it will last a long time. Great value! I am a lifer!

Love the way it penetrates my skin, the way it makes me feel and the improvement of my skin. My daughter recommended I try it. I’ve used Vitamin C products for awhile but nothing compares to this. It is rich and luxuriant on the face, neck and hands. I wish I could use it all over my body. Makes my skin look and feel better than ever.

This has become my favorite product. I have stopped wearing foundation as this evened out my skin and creates a natural glow that looks better than makeup. I get compliments on my skin almost every time I leave the house.

I love love that the ingredients are all natural and there's no hidden chemicals or bad things in it. I was needing vitamin c from FRUIT so bad and I know it reduces dark spots. The smell is wonderful! I'm going to mix it with my tallow, avocado oil face cream I made.

I absolutely love this facial oil. It's hydrating without being greasy and clogging my pores. It smells amazing as well. I've noticed a difference in my skin since I've been using it for the last couple months. I wanted to try it out first before leaving a review. Definitely interested in trying out some more of your products.

90-Day Money-Back Guarantee

If your skin doesn’t love it, we’ll refund your order, no questions asked, and we’ll cover the return shipping too. We offer this because we know how hard it is to trust new products, especially when your skin’s been through a lot. This guarantee isn’t a gimmick. It’s a reflection of how confident we are in the formula and how much we care about getting it right for you.

Scientifically proven most effective ingredients

Most Vitamin C serums use water-based forms like L-ascorbic acid, which are highly unstable and can cause dryness, irritation, and stinging, especially for sensitive skin or post-treatment recovery.

This formula uses Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate instead, a stable, oil-soluble form of Vitamin C that absorbs deeply, supporting brighter tone, smoother texture, and long-term collagen health.

Because it’s oil-based, it doesn’t just brighten, it also helps nourish and repair, making it especially supportive for mature or delicate skin.

Blending modern research with Ayurvedic wisdom, this Vitamin C oil is designed to restore radiance without disrupting your skin’s natural balance.

Retinol is often praised for its anti-aging power, but it can come with a cost: peeling, redness, and sensitivity.

That’s why this formula uses Bakuchiol, a plant-derived ingredient clinically shown to deliver similar benefits, without the irritation.

Bakuchiol helps smooth fine lines, improve skin firmness, and support cell turnover, all while being safe for sensitive skin, pregnancy, and daytime use.

Used for centuries in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, it’s a trusted botanical now backed by science, and a cornerstone of our modern Ayurvedic blend.

As we age, our skin naturally produces less oil, which can leave it feeling tight, dry, or flaky.
That’s where Squalane steps in.

Derived from olives, this ultra-light emollient mimics the skin’s own natural oils, replenishing moisture without clogging pores or feeling greasy.

It helps strengthen the skin barrier, enhances elasticity, and leaves your skin feeling plump and supple.

If Vitamin C is the brightener and Bakuchiol the renewer, Squalane is the comfort.
It makes this formula feel like skin care and self-care in one.

The complete blend features over a dozen carefully selected oils, extracts, and botanicals, each chosen to support skin health naturally:

  • Rosa Canina (Rosehip) Oil – rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants for scar and wrinkle support
  • Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Peel Oil – tones and refreshes with a burst of natural radiance
  • Emblica Officinalis (Amla) Fruit Extract* – one of Ayurveda’s most powerful rejuvenators
  • Vitamin E (Tocopherol) – a natural antioxidant to protect and soften
  • Centella Asiatica (Gotu Kola) Oil* – boosts collagen, calms inflammation
  • Withania Somnifera (Ashwagandha) Root Extract* – supports skin under stress, helps restore balance
  • Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) 
  • Peel Oil Extract – naturally brightens and evens tone
  • Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil* – light, fast-absorbing nourishment
  • Vetiveria Zizanioides (Vetiver) Powder* – grounding, clarifying, traditionally used for skin imbalances
  • Lecithin – enhances absorption and skin barrier integrity
  • Rubia Cordifolia (Manjistha) Extract* – detoxifying and calming, used in Ayurvedic skincare for centuries
  • Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract – helps fade dark spots and soothe inflammation
  • Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil – seals in moisture and supports regeneration
  • Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Seed Oil – rich in beta-carotene for cell renewal
  • Rosa Damascena (Rose) Oil* – adds calming aroma and toning properties

All made with certified organic and natural ingredients, and nothing else.

This is what skincare looks like when it’s done with intention.

    Game changer in my skin care routine

    I’ve been hesitant about Vitamin C serums because my acne-prone skin tends to react poorly to most of them. But this serum has been a total game-changer! Unlike traditional Vitamin C, this formulation is incredibly gentle and doesn’t cause any breakouts or irritation. I only need a few drops to get that fresh, dewy feeling — it’s like a mini facial at home every day! After applying, I just follow up with a little moisturizer, and my skin feels set for the day. An added bonus? The scent is absolutely divine, and it lingers subtly, making me feel like I’m treating myself to something special every morning. Starting my day with this serum has become a ritual that I genuinely look forward to. Highly recommend it to anyone, especially if you’ve got sensitive or acne-prone skin like mine.

Frequently asked questions, answered
How did you make this serum so affordable?

The truth is that skincare companies charge as much as 700% more than the cost of ingredients – and they like to spend a fortune on influencers and models to convince you to buy it. But we keep our prices fair, and we trust that once you try it, you’ll never want to use another serum ever again.

Why does it smell SO GOOD?!

The combination of grapefruit oil, orange peel oil, orange oil, and rose oil invigorate this serum, while Ayurvedic herbs create a lovely base. To put it simply, we use high-quality ingredients that bring fresh natural scents to your skin.

How often should I use it?

You can use this Vitamin C oil up to 2 times a day, everyday. However, I suggest starting with once a day, morning or night. If you are on the minimal side with your skincare routine you can use it 3-4x/week and still see amazing results. I suggest using it 2x/day every day during winter months when the air is dry and cold. You can also experiment with going to bed with naked skin, meaning that once a week you do not put any skincare product on your face. Always use your intuition when it comes to self-care!

Is it greasy?

Not at all! Your skin won’t feel tacky, sticky, or greasy at all, because the base oil is rosehip oil, which is lightweight, fast absorbing, does not leave any residue, and is non-comedogenic.

Is this good for oily, acne-prone skin?

Yes! It is non-comedogenic and high in linoleic fatty acid which is proven to help acne-prone skin. Let’s bust the myth that persons with oily skin should stay away from oils. Oily skin types tend to over-cleanse, stripping skin of its natural oils, but guess what? Oily skin needs oils to balance its lipids. Oily skin is going to want to replace more oil if we over-strip it! It becomes a vicious cycle. Stop it! Let your skin heal. Use simple, pure oils with high-linoleic/low-oleic fatty acids.

Can I use this if I have really sensitive skin?

Absolutely! These gentle, natural ingredients do not cause irritation like other serums and anti-wrinkle treatments. It’s also packed with skin-repairing ingredients like Rosehip Oil, Squalane, Manjistha, Rose oil, Grape seed oil, and Vitamin E.

What order should I put this in my skincare routine?

Cleanse your skin first, then use our Ayurvedic Vitamin C Face Oil, followed by Sunscreen, and you’re done! If you want to fit this into your current routine with multiple products, then use this Vitamin C Oil after your serum and moisturizer to lock in long-lasting hydration. You can also add a drop or two to your foundation for extra dewy coverage.

How much time will I save every day?

Some people will literally save 20 minutes a day, depending on how complicated their current skincare routine is.

Do I use it in the morning or at night?

Thanks to the natural, non-irritating retinol alternative, you can use it both in the morning and at night for rapid, easy results. In the morning, Vitamin C gives you protection from photodamage during the day. At night, it stays on longer and can work its skin-repairing and anti-aging magic while you sleep. If you have oily skin, you might prefer using it at night. Personally, I work from home and love using it during the day for its relaxing aromatherapeutic effect and as a refreshing and nourishing work break.

What is Ayurveda?

Ayurveda is the oldest medicinal science from India, using herbs and natural ingredients as medicine and targeted treatments for health, beauty, and longevity.

Recently, scientists have begun studying the ingredients used in Ayurveda for everything from stress relief to skincare to heart health and more, and the research is increasingly supportive of Ayurvedic traditions. 

It turns out that 3,000 years of wisdom is frequently backed up by science, too. 

By eliminating foreign chemicals from your skincare and focusing on time-tested solutions, we’ve created a serum that not only smells amazing, but also keeps you safe from some of the modern chemical creations that companies have been using to damage your skin while charging you hundreds of dollars. 

What's the list of all ingredients?

Rosa Canina (Rosehip) Oil, Squalane (From Olives), Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate), Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Emblica Officinalis (Amla) Fruit Extract*, Vitamin E (Tocopherol), Centella Asiatica (Gotu Kola) Oil*, Withania Somnifera (Ashwagandha) Root Extract*, Bakuchiol, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Oil Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil Extract, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil*, Vetiveria Zizanioides (Vetiver) Powder*, Lecithin, Rubia Cordifolia (Manjistha) Extract*, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil*, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Seed Oil, Rosa Damascena (Rose) Oil*
