Shata Dhauta Ghrita — 100x Washed Ghee Facial Moisturizer

Pure ghee, washed by hand 100 times until it becomes a soft, whipped cream. 30 mL.

For the woman who knows her skin and wants to know exactly what she puts on it.

I make this face cream from one ingredient, and I wash it by hand one hundred times. I start with pure ghee, add cold water, press it with my hands, pour the water off, and begin again. By the hundredth wash it no longer looks or feels like ghee. It turns white and soft, like whipped cream.

On the skin it feels cool and silky. It sinks in and leaves your face soft and comfortable for the whole day, with none of the heavy feel of a butter. My own skin has grown drier over the years, and this is the jar I reach for every morning.

Ayurvedic doctors have prepared ghee this way for centuries for dry and delicate skin. The Sanskrit name, Shata Dhauta Ghrita, means ghee washed one hundred times. I make every batch myself and use it in my own treatment room.
