Facial Polish Imperial Glow 100 ml

The Imperial Glow Facial Polish by Ranavat is a creamy facial scrub for skin that feels rough, dull, or somewhat uneven. Finely milled rice powder lifts dead skin cells and buildup from the surface and helps clarify areas that feel congested. Skin feels instantly smoother and softer and looks fresher and more refined - without the dry feeling many classic mechanical scrubs leave behind.

This is thanks to the rich, almost cream-like nourishing base of organic sesame oil, sweet almond oil, and glycerin. It keeps skin supple during exfoliation and gives Imperial Glow its especially pleasant, luxurious texture. The cream gently emulsifies with water and rinses off easily.

• Creamy mechanical facial scrub for smoother, softer, and more radiant-looking skin
• For all skin types, including sensitive, oily, and blemish-prone skin
• Finely milled rice powder removes dead skin cells and surface buildup
• Supports a smoother, more refined complexion and brings dull skin back to life
• With organic sesame oil, sweet almond oil, and glycerin for a nourished skin feel
• Ayurvedic botanical blend with ashwagandha, lotus, licorice, and triphala
• Creamy texture that gently emulsifies with water and rinses off
• Vegan and cruelty-free, without silicones or synthetic fragrances

As is typical of Ranavat, this product also contains a multi-layered Ayurvedic botanical blend: ashwagandha, lotus, licorice, triphala, Himalayan cherry, cardamom, and other traditional botanicals complement the scrub with antioxidant and soothing plant compounds. Rose and geranium oils give the formula its delicate natural fragrance.

The result is not an aggressive “polish,” but a nourished, supple skin surface with enhanced radiance - especially lovely before serum and moisturizer, when skin feels dull or skincare products no longer apply as smoothly.

Key Ingredients

• Finely milled rice powder - provides the actual exfoliating action. The fine particles mechanically lift dead skin cells and surface buildup from the skin. As a result, the surface feels immediately smoother and softer, while the complexion looks fresher and more even.
• Organic sesame oil & sweet almond oil - make Imperial Glow much more nourishing than many classic scrubs. The plant oils provide valuable fatty acids and help keep skin supple during exfoliation. The result is a smoothed skin surface without an unnecessarily dry or tight after-feel.
• Ashwagandha - one of Ayurveda’s best-known plants and particularly well suited to stressed skin here. Its antioxidant plant compounds support the skin’s protection against oxidative stress and complement the mechanical exfoliation with a soothing, balancing care component.
• Lotus flower - rich in antioxidant plant compounds and traditionally closely associated with Indian beauty rituals. It complements the formula with nourishing and balancing properties, making it especially suitable for skin that should feel not only smooth but also pleasantly cared for after exfoliation.
• Licorice root - provides antioxidant and soothing plant compounds and supports a more even-looking complexion. Especially for dull or uneven-looking skin, it beautifully complements the smoothing effect of rice powder.
• Triphala - the classic Ayurvedic combination of amla, bibhitaki, and haritaki adds additional antioxidant plant compounds to the formula. Together with other botanicals such as Himalayan cherry, cardamom, and vetiver, it gives Imperial Glow its distinctive Ayurvedic depth.

How to Use

• 2-3 times a week apply a small amount to damp skin on the face and neck.
• Massage in gentle circular motions, especially over areas prone to roughness or buildup. Avoid the eye area.
• Use only light pressure - the fine rice particles do the exfoliating work.
• Then rinse thoroughly with warm water.
• Follow with essence, serum, and moisturizer. It pairs especially well with Brightening Saffron Serum Radiant Rani.
• Do not use at the same time as other intensive exfoliants, and pause use if skin is irritated or damaged.

FAQ

What does Imperial Glow Facial Polish do?
The scrub removes dead skin cells and surface buildup. This leaves skin feeling smoother and softer and looking fresher, clearer, and more radiant.

Is Imperial Glow a chemical or mechanical exfoliant?
It is a mechanical exfoliant. Finely milled rice powder gently lifts dead skin cells from the skin’s surface through massage. It does not contain AHA or BHA acids.

Is the scrub suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. Ranavat has tested the formula dermatologically and on sensitive skin. Even so, gentle application without strong pressure and individually adjusted frequency are important.

Can I use Imperial Glow on oily or blemish-prone skin?
Yes. Ranavat expressly recommends the Facial Polish for oily and blemish-prone skin as well. Mechanical exfoliation helps remove buildup from the skin’s surface. However, do not rub over inflamed or open blemishes.

How often should I use the facial scrub?
Ranavat recommends using it two to three times a week. For sensitive or very dry skin, once a week may be sufficient. What matters is how your skin responds to the scrub.

Why does Imperial Glow feel so nourishing?
In addition to rice powder, the cream contains organic sesame oil, sweet almond oil, and glycerin. This nourishing base keeps skin supple during and after exfoliation and distinguishes Imperial Glow from drier, more intensely degreasing scrubs.

Can I combine the scrub with retinol or acids?
Generally, yes, but we recommend not using mechanical exfoliants and stronger retinoids or acid peels on the same evening. This reduces the risk of unnecessary irritation.

Does Imperial Glow have a fragrance?
Yes. Rose and geranium oils give the scrub a delicate natural botanical fragrance. The formula contains no synthetic fragrances.
