What makes it special

Thirty-six herbs, one old recipe

  • Made with 36 herbs

    Each herb is chosen for its place in the recipe, not for the length of the list.

  • Herbs sourced from Uttarakhand

    Gathered from the hills the recipe itself comes from.

  • A traditional Himalayan recipe

    Prepared the way it has long been prepared in Himalayan homes.

  • 100% natural ingredients

    Herbs and oil. Nothing in the bottle that does not belong there.

  • No added preservatives

    Which is also why it is made in small quantities, close to when it is used.

  • Handmade in small batches

    Every batch is prepared by hand rather than run off a line.

  • Rooted in Indian herbal care

    Inspired by traditional Indian maalish and the herbal care around it.

The idea

Why we made Maalish

The idea behind Maalish is simple: to bring back the kind of herbal oil and massage practice that was traditionally prepared at home, using plants and knowledge passed down through generations.

Not a formula reverse-engineered in a lab, but a recipe that was already complete — carried in families, made in kitchens, and given with the hands.

The batch

Made by hand, a few bottles at a time

Nothing here is made to sit in a warehouse. Each batch is prepared by hand and bottled fresh — which is what makes it possible to leave the preservatives out.

The ritual

How to use

  1. 01

    Warm a little, if you like

    For a deeper traditional experience, warm a small quantity of oil slightly before application.

  2. 02

    Massage gently

    Gently massage the oil to the desired area.

  3. 03

    Let it rest

    Allow the oil to remain for some time before bathing or wiping, as suitable for your routine.
