Amla, also known as Indian gooseberry, is a small, green fruit celebrated in Ayurveda for its incredible health and beauty benefits. Packed with vitamin C, antioxidants, and essential amino acids, amla is a natural powerhouse that nourishes both skin and hair.
For hair, amla strengthens roots, prevents hair fall, delays premature graying, and promotes natural shine. Its nutrients also help fight dandruff and improve scalp health.
For skin, amla works as a natural detoxifier and rejuvenator. It brightens the complexion, reduces pigmentation, fights acne, and slows down signs of aging thanks to its high antioxidant content.
Regular use of amla—whether as a juice, powder, or oil—can transform your beauty routine into a natural, chemical-free regimen that promotes healthy, glowing skin and strong, lustrous hair.
