Amla (Indian Gooseberry) is a plant that has been used extensively in Ayurvedic (traditional Indian herbal system of medicine) treatments. It is, perhaps, best known in the form of Amla hair oil and other hair products. It is known to moisturize as well as help make your hair darker, shinier and stronger.

 

The Hesh Amla Powder is exactly what its name implies and while primarily meant to be used on your hair, may also be applied on your skin. When used for your hair, the manufacturer suggests that it may aid in promoting hair growth, controlling hair fall or hair loss, curing scalp infections and controlling premature gray hairs.

 

With regards to using it as a skin care product, it is suggested that it may help reduce pimples and remove grime.
