Nourishing Body Lotion

Can't find the right lotion to make you feel moisturized? We all look for something that can always keep our skin hydrated at all times and sometimes drinking water only wouldn't help achieve a radiant skin altogether. This is because drinking water can lead you to visit the toilet a multiple times and you just get tired of drinking it. The water has to go somewhere to get rid of the toxins right? Laughs. Here's Himalaya Nourishing Lotion which combines 100% herbal ingredients to restore your body's water content, as varying weather conditions make our skin lose its moisture. The non greasy body lotion leaves skin feeling soft, supple and toned. 


  • Aloe Vera is used extensively in Ayurveda for wounds, burns, dermatitis and other skin ailments. It has antibacterial and astringent properties which accelerate the healing of injured skin. Aloe Vera soothes and moisturizes dry skin.
  • Apricot is known for its revitalizing and hydrating properties which makes it an excellent addition to your skincare routine. Beta-carotene in apricot acts as a moisturizing agent and imparts a healthy glow to your skin.
  • Wheat, due to its high concentration of vitamins E and D as well as proteins and natural antioxidants, is highly effective for most skin types and serves a number of purposes. Antioxidants improve circulation and help repair damaged skin cells, eliminating that wrinkled-leather look caused by sun damage causes. Wheatgerm Oil helps soothe the irritation and redness from eczema and psoriasis. It also helps to relieve itching and promotes new cell growth.
p/s : Best used right after bathing when skin is most receptive to hydration.

Hair Fall?

Yeah, most of us go through the trouble of finding a shampoo that can really hold our hair in position and prevent it from breaking and falling. Scared of being bald at a certain area in your head? Well, all of us dread about the very same thing. But there are few steps to prevent your hair from actually falling and to encourage a better growth. The steps are as below :

1. Avoid washing your hair too frequent in a day because it can cause your hair to be too dry. Your scalp needs some oil to help hold the hair and make sure it is healthy. By removing all the oil in your scalp, your hair growth will decrease in time. It can also cause frequent headaches.

2. Apply oil and massage your scalp every week to enable the growth of your hair. Massaging your scalp can enable a better blood circulation in your scalp thus enhancing more hair growth. Remember to massage using your fingers, not your nails. Using your nails can also cause hair breakage. You can always try Himalaya's Revitalizing Hair Oil is non sticky herbal oil that penetrates deep into the scalp to nourish the hair roots. Cicer Arietinum (Chickpea) nourishes the hair with natural proteins while Eclipta Alba (Thistles) and Emblica Officinalis (Indian Gooseberry) promote hair growth.



3. After a hair wash, never, never rub your hair against the towel because this too will cause breakage. You are supposed to wipe your hair dry with a towel but never rub against it. You can always give Himalaya's Anti Hair Fall Shampoo a try.



 You can tie the towel around your head and leave it on just as below.




Try these steps and you will see a better hair growth. :)
