India is home to a distinctive wealth of natural ingredients that nurture the skin in a holistic manner, imparting a luminous glow and radiance to the skin that no synthetic or chemical formulation can truly replicate. Saffron is one such unique and luxurious ingredient found naturally and exclusively in India, but also remains under utilised in the beauty and skincare industry. Leveraging this hero ingredient, Dr Surabhi along with her co-founders from IIT and IIM laid the foundation of Saffr’n, a natural, ayurvedic, and science-backed Skin care brand driven to redefine Skincare products that celebrate Ayurveda’s wisdom, and embody the marvels of modern science.

A beacon of purity in the crowded, chemical dominated skincare space, Saffr’n is proactively bridging the gap between tradition and innovation. Fueled by a passion to develop skincare that not just enhances beauty, but enriches life, Saffr’n is capturing the essence of its namesake in every product it develops- purity and luxury. Deriving saffron’s benefits and blending it with new technologies like nanotech, stem cell extraction processes and more, the brand curates potent products that deliver better results.

High-Quality Products

With a broad product range suitable for everyone from a teenager to an elderly, Saffr’n pinpoints unique skin challenges every target bracket experiences, and launches products addressing the same. For teens who struggle with acne, Saffr’n’s acne shield moisturizer and acne erase cream are the perfect natural product. Similarly, the brand offers an anti-aging product range with natural ingredients like Resveratrol and Argireline, popularly known as liquid botox. For pregnant women too, the brand has curated unique formulations that are effective and safe to tackle and prevent stretch marks.

Its unique AI-powered skin analyzer gives Saffr’n an edge, offering customers a personalized skin analysis to identify challenges and recommend products best suited to address problems. The interactive platform also answers questions, allowing customers to better understand their skin and its needs.

Saffr’n’s excellence stems from a commitment to quality, sustainable and ethical practices and a passionate team pursuing customer delight through innovation. Saffr’n was recently coveted as the Top 10 emerging brands to watch out for in 2025 by a popular business Magazine. One of the products launched by Saffr’n catapulted to the top-20 best selling products on Nykaa within a few weeks of getting launched.

“What separates us is that we promote clean beauty and skincare. We use natural ingredients in our products, sourced from reliable sources and implement sustainable practices. We are very intentional about not using any harsh chemicals in our products, focusing on sourcing natural, botanical substitutes for common chemicals wherever possible”, shares Dr Surabhi, Co-Founder, Saffr’n.
