Health obsessed, product junkie, cosmetic hoarder, beauty expert: As the former-Beauty Director of leading women’s magazines like Harper’s Bazaar, Cosmopolitan and Women's Health in India, I’ve been all these things at once. And even after writing on health and beauty for over 15 years, my appetite for delicious skincare and sumptuous makeup hasn’t dimmed...

The. Best. Feeling. In. This. World...is holding your first book. A year of sweat, blood, tears and hard work that have been packed into about 260 pages. Glow is my labour of love, a piece of my heart. Thank you @penguinindia and my amazing editor @gurveenchadha for making this possible. Guys please show me some love, check out the link in my bio to preorder your own copy of #GLOW. #theglowbook
Check out this dope book cover designed by @magilesque of @penguinindia. In my book I have tried to do away with all sorts of trending or faddish foods. It’s down to the basics with 60 Indian ingredients and more than a 100 ways to eat or apply them. Read it to simplify your wellness routine, to make food your freind, and to find depth in this business of beauty. Also a huge, HUGE thank you to @masabagupta for her heart-wrenching foreword (another reason to read my book) and also to @drnigmatalib who gave me my very first review ❤️. Preorder link is in my bio. #vbeauty #lookluxeliveclean #glowbabyglow
#Repost @dramyshah with @get_repost ・・・ **Profile!!** . See if you can relate to this story and how it can help you or a friend! . Also like or tell her if it inspired you to take back your health! . @vasudha.rai is an inspiring being. I first met her and she reached out to me to do a Harpers Bazaar profile on me but quickly we realized that it was a connection and friendship. . Here’s her story: . . “Many people in my audience know that I struggle with grade 4 endometriosis, pain, migraines and really try hard to control things in a natural way. After doing an interview with Dr. Shah for Harpers Bazaar - l decided to consult with Dr. Shah for my issues. Synthetic hormones I was using to control my endometriosis were ruining my skin, weight and digestion. After listening to my story-- she put me on a strict diet (grain free sugar free with tons of healthy fats and supplements). After sticking to this diet plan + yoga for a few weeks everything started to change. I experienced less migraines, constipation. My skin is better than it's ever been and my weight is lower than ever before (5kg's without changing exercise). The intermittent fasting really controlled my hunger too. . Although weight loss and skin clearing was a great benefit -to me the biggest benefits were the hormone balancing benefits leading to less migraines. I used to take medication for the migraines but they would continue to the next day. I haven't had the need to take a single tablet for migraines since starting her diet. . I will be continuing on this lifestyle for the long term.” . . You should definitely follow @vasudha.rai she’s an acclaimed columnist for the Hindu, former beauty at her at Harpers bazaar India, Cosmo, women’s health idea and has a new book called GLOW! . . . . . . . . #successfulwomen #girlboss #wieghtlossmotivation #Medicaldoctor , #wellness #doc, #entrepreneur, #mom #intermittentfasting #fasting #microbiome #vegetarian #vegan #yoga #functionalmedicine #integrativemedicine #ayurveda #guthealth #hormonebalance #fitdocsofinstagram #fitdoctorsofinstagram
SO excited to finally get my hands on @abhatisuisse products! This beauty brand was founded by Anju Rupal who’s of Indian origin. Each product sends a girl to school in india and they have also planted about 17 million trees! Even though they’re not available in India, I’m hoping that they’ll be make an entry soon. I bought the Shanta Extra Rich Facial Cleanser and the Mahanandi Natural Lip Treatment, which was used to prep Priyanka Chopra’s lips for the Met Ball. Reviews soon! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #vbeauty #lookluxeliveclean #greenbeauty #cleanbeauty #ayurveda #ayurvedicskincare #givebacktothecommunity #cleancleanser #lipbalm

Looking at my reflection in the mirror of what Marlene Dietrich called the most beautiful casino in the world. #casinobadenbaden was the inspiration for Dostoyevsky’s The Gambler.
