Love the feel of this gorgeous elixir on my skin – so smooth and fresh. Love that it’s vegan, gluten-free, certified organic, made in Australia, comes in a glass bottle… what’s not to love?! Admittedly I’ve been putting it on my face several times a day (more than I need to!) simply because it feels so nice.

Dominique Scott

There’s also so much to love about Mukti’s production ethics and sustainability – their commitment to transparency, fair trade practices, ethical manufacturing and to lowering their carbon footprint as much as possible is incredibly inspiring and impressive.
