The curry tree, also known as the curry leaf tree, is native to India. Its leaves are widely used in Indian cuisine; in fact, curry is such a popular seasoning that a whole variety of dishes was named after it (interestingly enough, modern curries aren’t necessarily spiced with curry leaves). In addition, curry leaves are used in Ayurveda as a remedy for a range of ailments due to their antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties.
When used as a skincare product, curry leaf powder helps to eliminate breakouts and relieve irritated skin, as well as to combat pigmentation. It unclogs pores and reduces their appearance, evens out skin tone and brightens complexion, has an exfoliating effect, controls oily shine, soothes the skin, and prevents acne.
As a hair care product, curry leaf powder stimulates microcirculation in the scalp, improving blood flow to hair follicles.

Curry leaves also have a potent antioxidant effect; they help to prevent premature grey hair and hair loss.
