July 6 : Dipsy, rooted in India’s native botanicals and backed by modern formulation science, introduces Teja Mandara, a gel-to-milk face cleanser and makeup remover designed to simplify cleansing into one gentle yet effective ritual. Created to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, excess oil and the day’s impurities, Teja Mandara transforms from a nourishing gel cleanser into a milky emulsion that rinses away cleanly, leaving skin balanced, soft and comfortable.
The name Teja Mandara reflects the philosophy at the heart of Dipsy. Teja, derived from Tamil, signifies radiance, glow and inner light, while Mandara, the Telugu word for hibiscus, pays homage to the hero botanical within the formula. Together, they represent a skincare ritual rooted in tradition yet designed for modern routines.
Crafted using Indian-origin ingredients, the formula combines four carefully selected botanicals that work in harmony with the skin. Hibiscus helps soften and revitalise the skin, while Moringa nourishes and replenishes during cleansing. Alkanet root, a traditional Indian botanical, offers soothing properties, and Ginger Lily lends a subtle aromatic note that makes the cleansing experience grounding and sensorial. The result is a face cleanser that effectively removes impurities while preserving the skin’s natural barrier.
Teja Mandara is formulated for Indian weather conditions and perfect for both AM and PM cleansing ritual. Its two-phase formula begins as a gentle gel that melts away residue and transforms into a milky cleanser upon contact with water, lifting impurities without leaving the skin feeling stripped or dry. For heavier makeup or long-wear sunscreen, a second cleanse provides a deeper reset.
With Teja Mandara, Dipsy reimagines face cleansing as more than just the first step of skincare – transforming it into a thoughtful ritual that proves that effective skincare can be both intentional and uncomplicated.
