Ayurveda, but speaking
fluent TikTok.

Ojas had a 200-year family lineage of Ayurvedic formulations and zero presence in the markets where the next generation of skincare buyers actually lives. We built the brand, the FDA paperwork, the Shopify storefront, and the TikTok-native voice — without losing the Ayurvedic root.

Heritage product, invisible in the markets that mattered.

Ojas had been making Ayurvedic skincare in Mumbai for over a century. The formulations were legitimate. Domestic sales were steady. But the founders' daughter — running the next-generation expansion — kept hitting the same wall: the US, UK, and Australian beauty buyers Ojas wanted didn't think of "Ayurveda" the way the Indian market did, didn't trust packaging that hadn't been adapted, and weren't searching the words Ojas was ranking for.

Worse: existing US distributors had filed FDA paperwork incorrectly, putting two products in regulatory limbo.

Re-stage the brand for a new generation, keep the soul.

This was a translation problem on three layers: language, culture, and channel. The Ayurvedic credibility was the moat — we just needed to make it accessible to a buyer who'd discovered skincare through TikTok dermatologists rather than family tradition.

  • Brand re-staging: kept the Ayurvedic root, modernized the naming, packaging, and visual language for US retail shelves.
  • FDA documentation rebuild: fixed the prior filing errors and submitted clean paperwork for full US distribution.
  • Shopify storefront: full e-commerce with international shipping, USD/GBP/AUD pricing, and a buyer journey calibrated for first-time Ayurveda-curious shoppers.
  • TikTok-native content voice: short-form copy and hooks that feel native to the platform, paired with educational long-form on the site for buyers who want to go deeper.
  • SEO targeting US beauty queries + GEO positioning for AI beauty recommendation tools.

From three retailers in India to three new countries.

Within two months of relaunch, Ojas was live on Shopify in three new markets, FDA paperwork was clean, and search visibility for category queries had lifted 89%. A creator on TikTok organically picked up one product and pushed it into wishlist territory — none of which would have converted without the storefront ready behind it.

By month four, two specialty US beauty retailers had reached out about wholesale partnerships.
