Inherited Skincare — Our Story

Our Heritage

Our Story

Born in a kitchen.
Raised by a dream.

Our founder, Suruchi, grew up watching her Indian grandmother, Leela. Every evening, Grandma Leela would press warm ghee — clarified butter — into her face and hands. A simple ritual, passed down through generations.

Years later, modern skincare — parabens, synthetic fragrance, harsh actives — left Suruchi’s skin reactive. Nothing that promised so much seemed to carry the wisdom she had inherited. So she returned to ghee.

Inherited Skincare was born from that return. At its heart is washed ghee — clarified butter washed, traditionally one hundred times in Ayurvedic practice, into a light whipped texture that penetrates all seven layers of the skin.

The brand is literally named in Leela’s honour — and for everything we carry forward from the women who came before us.

What We Believe

Rooted in Ritual

Every formula begins with an ancient practice. We don’t invent — we remember, refine, and restore timeless skincare wisdom to modern life.

Honest Ingredients

As few ingredients as possible, all natural. Free from parabens, sulphates, synthetic fragrance, petroleum derivatives, and silicones — and every formula is CPSR safety tested.

Slow Beauty

We believe in small batches, careful craftsmanship, and the quiet power of consistency. Real skin transformation happens over time, not overnight.

The Inherited Promise

We never take more than we need, or put in anything we don’t need. Not tested on animals, with sustainably sourced packaging.
