Aritha
The hero — one ingredient

Aritha

Sapindus mukorossi

Aritha, also known as reetha or soapnut, is the dried fruit of the Sapindus mukorossi tree from the Himalayan foothills, used in Ayurveda for centuries as a natural hair cleanser. It is naturally rich in saponins, plant compounds that create a soft, soap-like lather when mixed with water. Our single-origin powder gently lifts away dirt, oil and build-up while helping hair stay soft and shiny.

Frequently asked questions

Aritha, also called reetha or soapnut, is the dried, ground fruit of the Sapindus mukorossi tree. It has been used across India for centuries as a natural hair cleanser. The powder is naturally rich in saponins, plant compounds that foam gently when mixed with water.
When mixed with water, the natural saponins in Aritha create a soft, soap-like lather. This gently lifts away dirt, excess oil and product build-up from the hair and scalp. Unlike many synthetic shampoos, it cleanses without stripping the hair of its natural oils.
It suits most hair types, including oily, fine, curly and colour-treated hair, as well as sensitive scalps. Its mild, plant-based action makes it a gentle everyday alternative to harsher cleansers. As with any new product, results can vary from person to person.
Yes, a patch test is always recommended before first use. Apply a little of the mixed paste to your inner arm or behind the ear and wait 24 hours to check for any sensitivity. This is especially wise if you have a reactive or sensitive scalp.
For most people, using it once or twice a week is enough to keep hair clean and fresh. Those with oilier scalps may prefer it slightly more often, while drier hair types may use it less. Notice how your hair and scalp respond and adjust as needed.
Yes, it pairs beautifully with shikakai and amla, a classic Ayurvedic trio for hair care. Shikakai adds extra conditioning, while amla is traditionally used to support strong, lustrous-looking hair. You can blend the powders into a single paste for a complete wash.
Because it cleanses without stripping natural oils, most people find their hair feels clean rather than squeaky or stripped. If your ends feel a little dry, follow with a light oil or conditioner along the lengths. Mixing the paste with warm water also keeps it gentle.
Keep the powder in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Always use a dry spoon, as damp powder can clump or spoil faster. Mix only what you need for each wash and use the paste fresh.
