A House Profile on Amritsar.com
The House of Amritsar™
Rituals rooted in Amritsar. Guided by Ayurveda.
A premium topical collection in development for selected UK spas, hotels and boutiques. Inspired by the botanical traditions of Amritsar, each ritual is designed for professional treatment rooms, refined textures and modern cosmetic compliance.
Amritsar, Punjab · Developed for the United Kingdom
Origin
Rooted in Amritsar
The House of Amritsar begins in the old city, where narrow lanes carry the scent of rose, turmeric and neem and apothecaries have traded in botanical wisdom for generations.
It is the same city that gave the world the Harmandir Sahib, and the same soil that has grown the plants used in Punjabi households for as long as anyone has kept count — amla, shikakai, brahmi, multani mitti, neem. The house takes those materials, documents them, and brings them into a professional treatment room without softening where they came from.
“It is not an aesthetic borrowed from Ayurveda. It is a provenance we can trace to the source.”
The Collection
Eight Rituals in Development
Skin, scalp and body — designed for considered small-batch production, in amber glass, for professional treatment rooms and refined daily self-care.
Kesh Amrit
Scalp Vitality Oil
A warming pre-wash oil built around the classical hair tonics of Punjab — massaged from the crown outward, left to settle, then cleansed away.
Brahmi & Shikakai
Lightweight Scalp Serum
Brahmi for calm, shikakai for cleanliness — a daily-weight serum for scalps that cannot carry a heavy oil.
Kumkumadi
Radiance Facial Elixir
The most storied formula in Ayurvedic skincare, rebuilt for a modern treatment room: saffron-led, slow to absorb, worn overnight.
Rasayana
Firming Night Balm
Rasayana means rejuvenation. A dense night balm for the last step of a facial, when the skin should be left undisturbed.
Amrit Abhyanga
Signature Body Ritual Oil
The signature abhyanga oil — the long, warm, full-body massage that anchors the house treatment menu.
Ashwagandha
Grounding Body Balm
A grounding balm for the close of a treatment, or for the evening at home when the day needs putting down.
Shakti
Barrier Comfort Cream
Built for skin under strain — hormonal change, seasonal shift, over-treatment — where comfort matters more than activity.
Multani Mitti + Neem
Purifying Clay Mask
Fuller’s earth and neem, the two most common things in an Amritsar household medicine cupboard, given a professional finish.

For the Discerning House
For Spas
Treatment-room formats, protocol-led rituals and textures that behave predictably under a therapist’s hands through a full-length service.
For Hotels
Wellness amenity and in-room ranges with a provenance story worth telling — a house identity rather than a white label.

Amber glass, restrained typography and a shelf presence built for considered retail rather than volume distribution.
Founder’s Note
“The House of Amritsar was created to translate that connection into a contemporary skincare and spa-ritual collection — developed with rigour, careful sourcing, and respect for the place that has shaped so much of my life’s work.”
Sardara Bains · Founder
Sardara founded Amritsar.com in 1998 and spent almost four decades building technology businesses before the city he had been documenting turned into something he wanted to make.
