Shat Dhuat Ghrit
One hundred washings. One purpose.
Shat Dhuat Ghrit translates simply: ghee washed one hundred times. It is one of the oldest preparations in Ayurvedic skin care — ghee that has been worked with water, again and again, until it transforms into something lighter, cooler, and more deeply absorbable than what it began as.
The process is slow. The result is unlike anything else.
What remains after a hundred washings is a preparation that the skin recognises immediately. It does not sit on the surface. It does not feel heavy. It calms what is reactive, restores what is compromised, and asks very little in return.
A little is enough. That is always the sign of something real.

- Calms reactive, irritated, or inflamed skin

A Note on Ingredients
This preparation exists in Ayurvedic texts that are centuries old. It has not been improved upon because it does not need to be. We have simply made it with care and offered it as it is.
