The Making of 100 Times Washed Ghee

Shata Dhauta Ghrita is an age-old Ayurveda formulation specified in ancient Ayurveda’s classical textbook Charaka Samhita. It is one of the therapeutic products made from cow’s ghee. Shata Dhauta Ghrita is also known as 100 times washed ghee (‘Shata’ meaning ‘one hundred’, ‘Dhauta’ meaning ‘washed’ & ‘Ghrita’ meaning ‘Ghee’).
‘Shata Dhauta Ghrita is the only ancient cream formulation known to have the capability to penetrate to the seventh layer of the skin & thus healing the skin at the root level!’

Shata Dhauta Ghrita

As mentioned in Charaka Samhita, cow’s ghee is washed in a copper vessel 100 times to create a therapeutic and high-absorbing ghee cream. During this process, the ghee’s fat form is exposed to water and copper particles from the copper vessels; the granular size of fat is reduced. With repeated washes, the water particles connect with the fat molecules in ghee, thus breaking the ghee into smaller molecules. This process significantly increases the moisture level of the ghee cream. The entire process of 100 times washed ghee, breaks the smaller composition of ghee and evaporates the smell of ghee, thus converting cow’s ghee into a non-oily and deeply absorbing therapeutic moisturizer. Ayurveda certifies its healing properties; this therapeutic cream is suitable for multiple modern-day skin issues.

Why is Shata Dhauta Ghrita

The naturally increased hydration levels of Shata Dhauta Ghrita make it a suitable product for dry, inflamed skin conditions. Its pH level matches exactly with the pH level of our skin that protects the fine oil balance on the skin & saves skin from irritation. Its non-granular, creamy consistency makes it a non-sticky, deeply penetrating cream with cooling & anti-inflammatory properties. The properties inherited by the copper vessel make this cream a potent formulation for scar removal.

It can either be kept applied for skin to absorb all or rinsed with warm water after 10 minutes of light facial massage. The cream can be applied in the morning & at bedtime.
