TC46 Loves: The brand was founded out of Jyoti’s own struggle with a nagging skin issue that just wasn’t responding to conventional skincare products and countless medications. Her passion for scouting authentically natural products led to On A Healthy Note, a conscious curation of clean, non-toxic, sustainable products with honest ingredients that go through a rigorous approval procedure and due diligence that encourages transparency and ethics. She is the recipient of numerous awards including the Rex Karmaveer Global Fellowship and Karmaveer Award, 2019 and Exceptional Women of Excellence at Women Economic Forum, 2019.
