Ayurveda is more than an ancient healing tradition — it’s a scientific system that explains how natural herbs and minerals support the body’s inner balance. The effectiveness of Ayurvedic products lies in this timeless science, which connects physical health, mental peace, and natural beauty.
What Is Ayurveda? The Ancient Science of Natural Healing
Ayurveda, which translates to "the science of life," is one of the world's oldest holistic healing systems, originating in India over 5,000 years ago. It's based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body, and spirit. Ayurveda identifies three fundamental energies or doshas - Vata, Pitta, and Kapha - which govern all physical and mental processes. When these doshas are in harmony, you experience health and vitality; when they are imbalanced, it can manifest as illness or skin and hair problems. The goal of Ayurvedic practices and products is to restore this balance using natural, herbal ingredients, diet, and lifestyle changes.
Surul Chettinad: The Definition of Actual Ayurveda
In the world of skincare, even within the Ayurvedic segment, the distinction between true ancient medicine and modern adaptation is often lost.

Surul Chettinad Ayurveda is Actual Ayurveda.
Our formulations are not inspired by history; they are direct copies of the original writings dating back over 5000 years. When the foundational texts of Ayurveda were written, the medicine was pure, potent, and entirely plant-based.
Actual Ayurveda is purely plant-based medicine and contains absolutely none of the following:
- Preservatives
- Essential Oils (used for scent, not medicine)
- Carrier Oils (used to dilute)
- Mineral Oils
- Milk Products or Animal-Related By-Products
We honor this ancient mandate. Surul Chettinad Ayurveda brings you the exact medicines and original formulas, delivered direct from the herbs without any preservatives, mineral oils, or non-medicinal essential oils. By choosing us, you are trusting the true science of life and becoming part of the future's healthy generation.
How Ayurvedic Products Differ from Chemical Cosmetics
The key difference between Ayurvedic products and conventional chemical cosmetics lies in their approach and composition.
Holistic vs. Symptomatic:
Natural vs. Synthetic Ingredients: Chemical cosmetics frequently contain parabens, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances that can cause irritation, allergies, and long-term side effects. Ayurvedic skincare and hair care, on the other hand, are formulated with chemical-free skincare ingredients like botanical extracts, essential oils, and minerals that are biocompatible with the body.
Safety and Sustainability:
Many natural and herbal skincare products are more sustainable and environmentally friendly. Their ingredients are often biodegradable, and the production process tends to have a lower carbon footprint compared to the manufacturing of synthetic chemicals.
Benefits of Ayurvedic Products for Skin, Hair, and Body
The benefits of incorporating Ayurvedic products into your routine are extensive, covering your entire body.
Skin Care:
Ayurvedic skincare offers a gentle yet effective way to achieve a natural glow. Herbs like turmeric, sandalwood, and manjistha are rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that protect against free radical damage, reduce pigmentation, and soothe sensitive skin. Products are often tailored to an individual's specific dosha, providing personalized skin care that addresses the root cause of issues like dryness (Vata), sensitivity (Pitta), or oiliness (Kapha).
Hair Care:
For hair care, Ayurvedic herbs like amla, bhringraj, and hibiscus are traditionally used to nourish the scalp, strengthen hair follicles, and prevent premature graying and hair fall. These ingredients improve blood circulation to the scalp, ensuring hair receives the vital nutrients it needs to be strong and lustrous.
Body Care:
Ayurvedic wellness extends to the body with oils and cleansers that promote detoxification and a healthy lymphatic system. Ingredients like sandalwood and turmeric act as powerful anti-inflammatory and antiseptic agents, while rich oils such as sesame and coconut oil deeply moisturize and protect the skin's natural barrier.
