Description
Built on the principles of purity, purpose and consistency, Teja Mandara is a naturally formulated two-phase cleanser that blends Indian botanicals with modern skincare science to deliver one of the most effortless rituals in your routine.
Crafted with hibiscus, moringa, alkanet root and ginger lily, it transforms from a gentle oil that dissolves makeup and the day's residue into a milky emulsion that lifts impurities and rinses cleanly away — all without disrupting the skin barrier.
The name carries Dipsy's philosophy of staying rooted while evolving forward: in Tamil, Teja means radiance. In Telugu, Mandara means hibiscus.
Skin type
A cleanser for all skin types — oily, dry, combination or sensitive — suitable for both men and women. Dermatologically tested, non-comedogenic and formulated for the warmth and humidity of Indian weather.

The Ritual
Two phases. One gentle step.
A daily journey of self-love — a modern ritual echoing Indian cleansing traditions, celebrating your natural beauty.
PHASE 01 — MELT
Massage onto dry skin
Take two to three pumps into your palms and smooth over dry skin in slow, circular motions. The gel melts down the day — makeup softens, sunscreen loosens, and the weight of the outside world begins to dissolve.
PHASE 02 — LIFT
Emulsify and rinse
A splash of water turns the gel into a milky cleanser that lifts impurities with the understated grace of a traditional Indian cleansing ritual. Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry — fresh, hydrated, ready for what comes next.
Ritual tip: for heavier makeup or SPF, repeat the cleanse for a deeper, more refined reset. For the complete ritual, follow with Malli Malli, our daily moisturiser.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before your first cleanse.
Can I use Teja Mandara every day?
Yes — it's designed to be your everyday cleanser, gentle enough for daily use morning and night. The two-phase formula cleanses without stripping, so the skin barrier stays calm even with twice-daily use.
Does it really remove makeup and sunscreen in one step?
Yes. The oil phase dissolves makeup, SPF and the day's residue on dry skin; adding water turns it into a milky emulsion that lifts everything away and rinses clean. For heavier makeup or layered SPF, repeat the cleanse for a deeper reset.
Do I still need a second cleanser?
No — that's the point of a two-phase cleanser. It replaces the traditional oil-cleanser-plus-face-wash routine with a single step, leaving skin clean without the tight, squeaky feeling a double cleanse can cause.
Is it suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?
Yes. The formula is non-comedogenic and rinses away completely without an oily film, making it suitable for oily and acne-prone skin — including in warm, humid weather. It works for men and women across all skin types.
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. Teja Mandara is dermatologically tested and built around calming botanicals — alkanet root and ginger lily soothe the skin while hibiscus and moringa cleanse, so sensitive skin is cleansed without irritation.
When will I see results?
Skin feels clean, soft and comfortable from the very first cleanse. With daily use, expect smoother texture and a calmer, more even-looking complexion within the first few weeks — hibiscus's natural AHAs gently refine skin over time.
How long does one bottle last?
At two to three pumps per cleanse, the 100ml bottle typically lasts six to eight weeks of daily evening use. Subscribers on the 6-week plan get a fresh bottle just as the last one runs out — with 10% off and free delivery on every refill.
