Vriksha Veda is a one-stop, zero-waste store to find high-quality, raw ingredients for your DIY recipes. We believe in the healing power of nature and aim to help you nourish your skin and hair with botanical ingredients available in their purest and most potent form. From cold-pressed, unrefined oils and steam-distilled hydrosols to dried herbs, natural clays, and zero-waste tools, we have all the essentials you need to create your own DIY beauty rituals.
Founded in 2020, Vriksha Veda was born out of a desire to help people reconnect with nature. India, the birthplace of Ayurveda, is home to a rich heritage of botanical plants that have been revered for their wellness and beauty benefits since ancient times.
Yet, the products we use today on our skin, hair and body are often filled with harsh, synthetic chemicals that harm both us and our planet. Why? Because they are easily accessible and comparatively cheaper too.
So, we decided to offer easy access to botanical ingredients in their most unadulterated, raw form at competitive prices. And that’s how Vriksha Veda came to life.
‘Vriksha’ means tree and ‘Veda’ means knowledge. Our mission is to share the wisdom of plant-based, holistic beauty rituals that are gentle on your skin and safe for the planet. And with the DIY approach, you can truly personalise your self-care routine with ingredients that suit your unique needs.
Eco-friendly, zero-waste, and sustainable are not just buzzwords for us, but principles that guide everything we do at Vriksha Veda. Every choice we make is driven by our commitment to sustainability and our respect for the natural ecosystems.
We avoid over-processing our ingredients to preserve their freshness and potency. While this results in smaller batches and a shorter shelf life, it guarantees that our products are highly efficacious. We only use traditional processing techniques like cold-pressing and steam distillation to extract oils and hydrosols from plant harvest.
At Vriksha Veda, our commitment to quality begins at the source—our farms. We bring you the finest botanical ingredients directly from the fields where they are grown by collaborating with small-scale farms. This helps avoid the risk of adulteration while also creating livelihood opportunities for tribal communities.
Our focus has always been on promoting sustainable agricultural practices and reviving traditional production techniques. When you buy something from us, you are not only embracing a holistic approach to beauty but also supporting these hard-working farming communities and their traditional way of life.
Thank you for being a part of this eco-friendly journey and motivating us to continue providing sustainable, natural products. Follow us on social media for daily DIY inspiration and join us in celebrating the beauty of nature every day.
