REVIVING THE LOST PRACTICES OF UBTAN
"Using an ubtan for your daily skincare and personal care needs might just be the sustainable shift you need to make," says Aastha Khandelwal Jain, founder of Tvachamrit on the power of ubtan, "they are a powdered mix of various fresh or dried plant materials which helps in cleansing, scrubbing, and moisturizing your skin." She, in her brand- Tvachamrit, has utilized this power and provides two ubtan products Turmeric Ubtan, and Orange & Neem Ubtan. Hear it from Aastha who tells us all about ubtan.....
Traditionally, it is to be used instead of a soap and a moisturiser. In the yesteryears, ladies used to have a box full of dried herbs, leaves, flowers, and fruits that they used to keep in their bathing area to prepare fresh ubtans for their skincare and personal care purposes. They always included it in their trousseau. They also used to get muslin cloth, rugs, and thistle vessels for scrubbing their bodies using these ubtans.
Ubtan was made by first drying out fruits, roots, and leaves, grinding them in a mortar pestle to form powders, and then formulating a mix to suit your skincare needs. Nowadays, we have them pre-mixed and powdered already. Ubtans are incredibly useful. They are easier, more authentic, custom-made always for your skin type, less time-consuming, natural, no side effects, it builds up the layers of skin-strengthening it rather than depleting a layer of the skin which just weakens its barrier function.
