Organique by Himalaya

Organique by Himalaya is a unique line of body care made with active ingredients that are all organically produced, raw and natural made in India. It’s a true marriage of ancient wisdom and sophisticated science.

Organique by Himalaya’s personal care products, including hair, body, and dental care, are free from chemicals, artificial colors, and synthetic fragrances, which is why many have obtained the USDA organic certification–still very hard to find in the personal care aisle (organic certification for personal care still follows the same guidelines as organic certification for food) and why the entire line recently received the

Whole Foods Market Premium Body Care certification. How does the company do it? By taking traditional, natural Indian ingredients and testing them against time and science. “Organique by Himalaya is all about ingredients that have been time tested it’s a beautiful marriage between ancient wisdom and modern science and technology,” says Sachdev. Here are her top ingredient picks and why they work.

Neem: “This ingredient has been used for centuries in India. In the morning we would take the twigs of the neem tree, chew on it, make a fibrous brush and clean our teeth and tongue then dispose of it. That was nature’s first disposable toothpaste and toothbrush. If this ingredient has lasted for 6,000 years something must be right about it.” With natural antibacterial properties you can now find it in toothpaste, skin care, and hair products.

Turmeric: “In India the bride is bathed in sandalwood and turmeric, which is used as a mask on the body for the radiance she develops on her skin; it’s a ritual for the brides.” Its potent antioxidant, curcumin, helps keep skin wrinkle free by fighting skin-damaging free radicals. Plus, its anti-inflammatory properties make it a prime skin soother. Now find it in skin and body

care.
Holy basil: “Holy basil good for harmonizing and balancing but we also use it in some of our products for just aroma in some products for its oxygenating properties and in some we use a preservative so it’s the same holy basil performing different functions in our products.” Now find it in hair, scalp, and skin care products.

How Himalaya Goes above and beyond.

Gluten Free Products - Organique by Himalaya products are gluten free and completely free of ingredients derived from gluten-containing foods: wheat (including Kamut and spelt), barley, rye, oats and triticale, as well as the use of gluten in the form of a stabilizing or thickening agent.

Leaping bunny: cruelty-free certification – Founded in 1898. The BUAV (British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection) is one of the world’s most widely respected authorities in the fight against animal experimentation.

Whole Foods Market – Premium Body Care
– All Organique by Himalaya products have been awarded this seal. The seal is Whole Foods Market highest mark of quality and cleanliness in personal care.

Free from over 200 synthetic ingredients - Himalaya products are free from Parabens, Sodium Laurel Sulfate (SLS), Phthalates, Petroleum, Silicones, etc. and contain no artificial fragrances or colors and are yet seductively pleasurable.

Cold Pressed – Cold Extracted Oils – Himalaya uses only the highest grade of cold-pressed oils in their products derived by cold extraction. Through a process called malaxation, which slowly churn milled seeds/fruits/nuts in a specially designed mixer for 20 to 40 minutes. This churning allows the smaller droplets of oil released by the milling process to aggregate and separate more easily. This is followed by a laborious extraction process that is crucial due to its effects on oil quality. Although this manual process is time consuming, its outcome is a superior product. The benefits from this process are preservation of potent anti-aging compounds, rich nutrients and moisturizing factors.

Organic Ingredients – Organique by Himalaya® products use efficacious certified organic ingredients grown in rich, naturally-nurturing soils following the laws of nature, without the use of toxic or persistent chemical pesticides or herbicides. To protect herbs from insect and pest attack, Himalaya uses prophylactic sprays like Neem Oil as a natural insect repellent.

Sensory Experience – Himalaya makes no compromises on sensory pleasure. Their aromas are earthy, sensuous, vibrant, invigorating, soothing, and refreshing. In a few words, “We take you on a seductive journey of mind, body and spirit.”

    I found this line at my local market and I am really loving the Amla and Holy Basil Conditioner. I have been using this conditioner every day either as a rinse out+ leave-in or just as a leave-in. This conditioner does not make my hair too soft and mushy or overconditioned like most!!!! Even though it seems light , it also seems much richer and more moisturizing than a lot of those runny boutique conditioners. My hair is not very porous but it sucks a lot of this stuff up and does not get weighed down at all. The “grabby” texture helps to enhance my curls , gives me root lift, and makes my hair look and feel thicker. This is my HG conditioner! I think this would be great for anyone with fine, thin hair and might be good as a leave-in for those with drier, thicker hair. It also smells really awesome!

    I also tried the volumizing shampoo once. Volumizers not specifically made for curly hair usually cause my hair to frizz but I could not resist ! My husband has a new shampoo now! Maybe some day I will try the moisturizing poo but I am not that big on poos.

    I got sample of the body lotion; it is very light but moisturizing and smells good too.
