Tough Roots Hair Care

What is in the Tough Roots Hair Treatment Oil?

It blends hibiscus, rosemary, amla, ritha, shikakai, black seed, fenugreek seeds, and Vitamin E in a herbal infused formula made to nourish the scalp, strengthen roots, reduce hair fall, and restore shine. Available in 200ml for Rs. 1,500.

What is in the Tough Roots Hair Restoration Serum?

It contains almond, castor, keratin, argan, amla, rosemary oil, and Vitamin E, in a concentrated serum designed for daily use as a lighter conditioning and repair treatment. Available in 50ml for Rs. 1,800.

What is the difference between the Hair Treatment Oil and the Hair Restoration Serum?

The Hair Treatment Oil is a heavier herbal oil designed for weekly deep treatment of the scalp and hair lengths. The Serum is a lighter, concentrated formula for daily use, absorbing faster and adding conditioning and repair without weight. Used together they cover weekly nourishment and daily maintenance in one routine.

How do I use the Hair Treatment Oil?

Apply generously to the scalp and work through the lengths of the hair. Massage gently and leave for at least two hours or overnight. Wash as usual. Use once or twice a week for consistent results.

How do I use the Hair Restoration Serum?

Apply a small amount to the scalp and hair, massage gently, and leave for two hours or overnight. Wash as usual. Use regularly for best results as the botanicals in this formula reward consistency over time.

Are both products suitable for all hair types?

Both are formulated with natural botanical ingredients. If you have a specific sensitivity to any of the listed ingredients, check the full ingredient list before use. If you are unsure, contact us at 03454013167 and we will help you decide which product suits your hair type best.

Chilli Oil

What is in the Chilli Oil?

Both Mild and Hot contain red chilli flakes, oil, garlic, salt, roasted peanuts, spices, sesame seeds, and spring onion greens. The only difference between the two is the heat level.

What is the difference between Mild and Hot?

The Mild delivers a rich, garlicky warmth that builds slowly and stays comfortable. The Hot delivers bold, intense chilli heat that builds quickly and lingers. The character and quality are the same; only the heat level differs.

How should I use the Chilli Oil?

Spoon it over noodles, eggs, rice, grilled vegetables, or anything that needs a lift. It works as a finishing oil, a dipping sauce, or stirred into yoghurt for something cooler. Start with less than you think you need, especially with the Hot, and build from there.

Does it contain nuts?

Yes, the Chilli Oil contains roasted peanuts. If you or someone you are buying for has a nut allergy, please do not use this product.

How long does a jar last and how should I store it?

Both varieties are best used within six months of opening. Keep the jar sealed and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. No refrigeration is required.

Granolyx

How many variants does Granolyx come in?

Three. Classic Sweet is naturally sweetened with brown sugar and maple syrup. Granolyx-D is sweetened with honey and is not vegan. Granolyx-D Plus is 100% sugar-free with no added sweetener of any kind. All are made with organic oats, almonds, walnuts, cashews, and seeds.

What sizes are available?

Which Granolyx variant should I choose?

If you want a classic naturally sweetened granola, choose Classic Sweet. If you prefer honey over refined sugar, choose Granolyx-D. If you are avoiding all added sugar, choose Granolyx-D Plus. The 250g pack of any variant is the lowest-risk way to try it before committing to a larger size.

Is Granolyx gluten-free or vegan?

Gluten-free status is not specified for any of the three variants. Granolyx Classic Sweet contains plant-based ingredients. Granolyx-D is not vegan as it contains honey. Granolyx-D Plus vegan status is not specified. Contact us before ordering if you need clarification.

How should I store Granolyx and how long does it stay fresh?

Store in a cool, dry place in the resealable pouch or plastic jar with the seal closed between uses. All three variants are best within three months of the manufacturing date printed on the pack.

Blue Sparrow Soap

What varieties does Blue Sparrow come in?

Neem & Aloe for a gentle purifying cleanse, Coffee Sugar & Honey for combined cleansing and exfoliation, Loofah Exfoliating for a firm physical scrub built into the bar, and Radiance for a brightening daily wash. All are Rs. 550 per bar.

Are all four varieties suitable for the face?
