Sri Lanka are very vain race and have been indulging in herbal beauty care long before any western cosmetic company was founded .This can be attributed to our rich ayurvedic heritage ,Even today ,a very high percentage of Sri Lankans both men and women use home-made herbal preparations on a regular basis .
Look at simple traditional treatments like anointing hair and body with herbal oils,skin cleansing with pastes made of turmeric and green gram, hair washes with seeyakka and antiseptic skin- scrubs with kohomba leaf .All these are actually Ayurvedic beauty care treatments .
Chemical products come into being only in the 20th century -that's less than 100 years ago,in fact chemicalbased western cosmentics are something that came to be accepted in the region along with other victorian values and practices during the colonial era.Asians have finally woken up to this fact and are now switching in a big way to ayurvedic products . End.
Good 👍
