ABSTRACT
In this review endeavour has been made to study the ancient modern concordance of Shata Dhuta
Ghrita along with its multidisciplinary applications. Shata Dhauta Ghrita is an ancient cream
with magical beautification properties. It is certified by science for its supreme skin-healing
benefits & Ayurveda defines it as supreme skin elixir. A cooling, super-light cream and powerful
anti-aging formula, Shata Dhauta Ghrita is an anti-inflammatory skin solution & a beautifying
skin agent. As specified in Ayurveda's classical text Charaka Samhita, Shata Dhauta Ghrita is
made in pure copper vessel by washing pure cow ghee 100 times in the aura of divine mantra
chants. Shata Dhauta Ghrita is a light cream that deeply penetrates into all seven layers of skin to
heal it from within. It keeps skin silky, smooth & wrinkle-free. It protects against sun-damage &
heals age-spots. Its light texture & silky-smooth feel feels heavenly on skin. Shata Dhauta Ghrita
helps shrink the pores & is a super skin food for all skin types.
