welcome to kalya shastra!
forever the equation will be
kalya shastra = #nosoap + #noshampoo + #notoothpaste + #nostickerbindi challenges
what began as a simple instagram awareness page encouraging a move away from soaps and shampoos has evolved into a thriving community of 50k+ lifestyle change warriors. together, we’re united by a shared mission: embracing a preventive lifestyle through personal hygiene and body care—both in our products and our practices.
at kalya shastra, we passionately inspire you to move away from harmful chemicals and embrace the purity of #allnatural products for your daily body care routine.
meet krithika prasad
kalya shastra began as a simple thought and a strong desire of krithika prasad, a fiercely passionate advocate for wellness and natural living.
growing up amidst a large traditional family in coimbatore, tamil nadu, krithika was deeply influenced by the wisdom of traditional indian practices for personal hygiene and body care. this upbringing instilled in her a natural affinity for purity and simplicity. now based in bangalore, her journey toward wellness began with a clear mission: to ensure her loved ones experienced good health through mindful, healthier lifestyle choices.
drawing from her deep belief in the power of nature and the effectiveness of time-tested indian recipes, krithika launched kalya shastra to create a ripple of positive change. what began as a platform to educate people about the hidden dangers of chemical-laden products has blossomed into a trusted brand for natural body care.
once committed to kalya shastra, krithika trained extensively under experts, doctors, and healers specializing in ayurveda, siddha, homeopathy, and other healing modalities. she mastered the art of identifying ingredients, processing them, and adapting traditional recipes to suit modern needs—all while preserving the essence of these age-old practices.
today, kalya shastra reflects her unwavering commitment to authenticity, quality, and a preventive lifestyle. krithika firmly believes that even the smallest change can create a meaningful impact, inspiring everyone to take that first step toward a healthier, chemical-free life.
our philosophy
at kalya shastra, every product is:
• handmade with love: crafted in small batches using pure, natural ingredients.
• backed by tradition: inspired by the timeless wisdom of indian recipes.
• energized with positivity: charged with vedic health and happiness mantras to bring a sense of well-being.
every product, every conversation, and every creation reflects our commitment to quality, authenticity, and care.
the challenge
kalya shastra isn’t just a brand; it’s a movement to redefine self-care.
we challenge you to rethink your daily body care routine:
• #nosoap: we don't need soaps. skin is meant to be nourished and cleansed with natural ubtans, bathing powders
• #noshampoo: we don't need shampoos. we have soap-nuts, shikakai and more that hair needs to be healthy and happy
• #notoothpaste: we don't toothpastes. start day without synthetics and let dental care be effective and safe with 6 different tasting toothpowders
• #nostickerbindi: we don't need plastic and glue on our ajna chakra on our forehead. move to kumkuma that'll evolve life
these challenges encourage you to embrace the goodness of nature, promoting wellness for your mind, body, soul, and soil.
let’s get on this transformative journey together, one step at a time. join the kalya shastra revolution, where wellness meets tradition, and every product is powered by love, passion, and the wisdom of nature.
welcome to kalya shastra—a movement to rediscover wellness and tradition, together.
