Our Chemistry 1
OUR STORY
Juicy Chemistry was co-founded by Pritesh & Megha Asher in 2014, with a goal to provide effective skin care products formulated with the purest and the most nutrient rich ingredients the nature has to offer.
After suffering for over a decade with hyper-sensitive and acne-prone skin, and consulting with numerous dermatologists, Megha discovered that products simply lacked efficacy. Disappointed, she wanted to try the organic route.
While shopping at the mall, the couple encountered a salesperson trying to sell natural products. On reading the ingredients-list, Pritesh was surprised to see mentions of ingredients that were used as raw material at his petroleum products manufacturing unit!
“I handed the product back to the salesperson, and all I could think of was the oxymoron, where the front of the label was screaming natural and organic, the label behind was hushing preservatives, parabens, mineral oils, synthetic colours, perfumes and more”
– Pritesh
A deeper study into personal care products and their ingredients made the couple realise that even baby-care products contained potential irritants. What’s worse was that many brands claiming to be organic and natural couldn’t be further from the two terms. On sharing their thoughts and findings with friends and family, Megha and Pritesh realised that there was little to no awareness about what an ‘organic’ or ‘natural’ product really is and how certain synthetic additives could potentially cause harm in the long term. Whether it was a blatant lack of awareness amongst consumers or there was no truly ‘organic’ brand available, it was clear that there was an obvious gap in the market.
Coming from a manufacturing background, Pritesh was well-versed in complex formulations and manufacturing techniques, among other intricacies of running a business. The couple decided to put his knowledge to use in an endeavour to create a truly organic skincare line powered by the goodness of Mother Nature.
Deep thought, effort and research go into creating Juicy Chemistry products that contain no synthetic additives or preservatives. The products are concentrated, contain no water and are all certified organic by ECOCERT.
WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
“Everything we need for healthy and beautiful skin is available from nature’s lap, and to believe that labs can produce better ingredients than Mother Nature is just a fad…”
– Pritesh
Our philosophy is pretty simple. It’s in our motto; it’s in everything we do – “organic by nature”. Our no-nasty promise is something that we loudly and proudly talk about because our customers deserve nothing less. Unlike commercial brands that often mislead consumers about the “greenness” of their products, our products are both clean & effective, and give our clients a cosmetic experience as close to what nature intended.
Skincare is the most basic luxury! A luxury that we feel should be without any collateral damage. When we are so conscious about the food we eat, why should choosing skincare be any different?

The idea being, if it’s good enough to eat; it’s good enough to go on your skin.

OUR KITCHEN
A product is only as good as the ingredients used to create them!
From the lush fields of Kashmir to the intoxicating mountains of the Nilgiris, from the mineral rich Dead Sea to the majestic Alps, we travel great lengths to source the finest and the most nutrient rich ingredients the region has to offer. These rich & exotic ingredients are skillfully incorporated into our products using our precise manufacturing techniques, bringing together the delicate balance of powerful active ingredients with exceptional functionality.
At JC, the formulations are carefully created with a blend of essential oils, butters, base oils and botanicals, each serving as a powerful nutrient source for our skin. In our kitchen, the thumb rule is clear, to use simple yet effective ingredients. Skincare should not be complex. It should be as simple as eating healthy. In our quest to craft products that are in its purest and raw form, we replaced petroleum and petro-chemical based derivatives with natural ingredients.
“By doing so, we compromise shelf life for purity! Shorter shelf life, but better health wise”
– Megha
We understand the physical and chemical properties of each ingredient and how they complement each other during our formulations. As a result, our products offer maximum therapeutic benefits upon application. What distinguishes JC from other commercial skin care brands is that while we are committed to using only all natural ingredients we do not sacrifice the effectiveness of the product.
We believe that nature’s bounty is not only plentiful but also has the answers to most of our ailments!
