| Traditional beauty
treatments have been handed down by word of mouth and
practice down the generations in India. Quite a few of the methods and
prctices followed by our elders had a very scientific and rational base
with a major usage of items that we use everyday in the kitchen, (like
milk, turmeric, curd, gram flours, etc..), leaves, flowers, fruits, seeds
& the bark and roots from plants (like hibiscus leaves & flowers,
henna leaves, baadaam, etc.) All of these items were widely used to beautify
but also to maintain and condition the body. Each of the beauty aids has
the required moderating effect. Today, the use of natural items in food,
beauty treatment, medicine is gathering momentum with a lot of herbal products
in the market.
In this section,
we are also planning to provide info on the traditional practices used
by Indians to decorate their homes, most of which have become part of everyday
life.
