Origin of the brand

Melo Ayurveda was established in 2018 by Dr. Sam Karunanidhi, a biochemist and Ayurvedic practitioner.

The brand was created because there were many skin allergy problems in India. Skin cleansing products were mainly soaps and shower gels.

In Ayurvedic medicine, the Reetha plant ( Sapindus mukorossi ) is used as a skin cleanser. People who regularly use these plants have not had any problems with skin allergies or dry skin.

Reetha has a mild surfactant and an acidic pH. But most of the products we use have a neutral pH (pH 7) and soaps have an alkaline pH (pH 10).

Despite Reetha's skin benefits, the Indian market demanded a product like a soap or shower gel.

We have launched a 100% natural origin shower gel with a pH of 5.5

The product was a huge success in South India. Despite its success, we decided to stop creating plastic waste.

Melo Ayurveda returns to Europe with solid cosmetics - Made in France!
