Body Ubtan Kit

A complete traditional ubtan body-scrub ritual in one kit, this set brings together two herbal ubtan bath powders for cleansing and brightening, plus natural walnut shell powder for extra exfoliation. Each is filler-free, reviving a centuries-old Indian bathing custom in a gentle, soap-free ritual that leaves skin smooth and glowing.

Used together as one body ritual, the parts work in tandem: the ubtan powders lift away dirt, sweat and dullness while the walnut granules buff the skin smooth, so you cleanse and exfoliate the whole body in a single step.

What's inside

• Herbal Ubtan Powders - two traditional bath powders that cleanse and brighten
• Walnut Shell Powder - natural granules that add gentle scrubbing for rough patches

This time-honoured ritual is traditionally used to support brighter, glowing skin and a more even-looking tone, buffing rough patches on elbows, knees and ankles until skin feels soft and supple. It's best for dull, rough or tanned body skin needing gentle exfoliation, and suits most skin types; dry skin can mix the powders with milk or yoghurt for extra comfort, while very sensitive skin should use a finer paste with less walnut shell. Because the granules are coarse, use a light hand and keep to two or three times a week rather than scrubbing daily. A patch test on the inner arm twenty four hours before first use is advised.

To use: mix the ubtan powders with a little walnut shell powder and water, milk or yoghurt into a paste, massage onto damp skin in gentle circles, let it sit a few minutes, then scrub lightly with wet hands, rinse with warm water and follow with a moisturiser.
