A Holi inspired 6 recipe collaboration in 2019 with Forest Essentials using ingredients from their products. Forest Essentials is a luxury Indian cosmetics, skincare and perfume company that specialises in Ayurvedic preparations for its products. Their philosophy is simple as it is delightful- If You Cannot Eat It, Do Not Use It On Your Skin!

The brief : 6 recipes and pictures inspired by Ayurveda cooking, 4 with product integration. The theme was HOLI centric, the concept was #PhoolonKiHoli, something I enjoyed immensely.

This was a complete project from conceptualization, bringing together a few recipes highlighting and using key ingredients from each product, styling the recipes some with the products in frame, shooting them as well as sharing them on social media. This was a fulfilling collaboration, a first of the sort with a skincare. I absolutely loved the way it all came together, the play of colours and their beautiful product designs, aesthetic and so calming.
