Description
Amla Oil is an ayurvedic elixir obtained by macerating Indian gooseberries in a nourishing sesame and rapeseed base. This method transfers the powerful phytonutrients of the fruit (tannins, polyphenols) into a lipid environment, resulting in a product famous for its ability to revitalize the scalp and hair strand.
The combination of sesame and rapeseed oils facilitates the deep penetration of Amla's active principles, nourishing the hair from root to tip. This classic remedy maintains scalp health, being effective against hair loss and premature graying. The rich texture and authentic herbal scent confirm the purity of this revitalizing extract.

editor_choice Recommendations for Use and Synergies
Face care
Although famous for hair care, Amla oil can also be used on mature or dry skin, providing a protective barrier against cold and wind. However, due to its comedogenic potential, its use is not recommended for oily or acne-prone skin.
Practical recommendations
- Anti-aging facial massage: Use a small amount to massage the face and neck once a week. It helps tone the skin due to the astringent effect of the tannins in Amla.
- Makeup remover for dry skin: It can dissolve waterproof makeup. Apply, massage, and remove with a warm cloth, then wash the face with a gentle gel.
Synergies in face care
To enhance its anti-wrinkle effects, it can be combined with Rosa Mosqueta Oil. For a brightening effect, add a drop of Turmeric Essential Oil (Curcuma), respecting the minimum dosages.
Hair care
This is the domain where Amla oil excels. It is the ultimate treatment for dull, lifeless hair that falls out excessively or breaks easily. Regular use transforms hair texture, making it thicker, darker (visually, by saturating the color), and much more resilient.
Practical recommendations
- Pre-shampoo mask (Oil bath / Bain d'huile): Apply generously to the scalp and hair length. Massage vigorously for 5-10 minutes to stimulate circulation. Cover with a warm towel and leave on for at least an hour (or overnight). Then wash the hair twice.
- Serum for ends: A drop applied to dry ends prevents splitting and provides an instant well-groomed appearance.
- Henna adjuvant: If you dye your hair with natural Henna, add a tablespoon of Amla oil to the paste to counteract the drying effect of the powder and to fix the color.
Synergies in hair care
For extreme hair growth stimulation, combine in equal parts with Ricin Oil and add Rosemary Essential Oil and Peppermint Essential Oil. For dandruff, it works perfectly alongside Neem Oil and Tea Tree Essential Oil.
Body care
In the Ayurveda tradition, body massage (Abhyanga) with medicinal oils is essential for detoxification and relaxation. Amla oil, due to its sesame base, has a mild warming and muscle-relaxing effect, making it ideal for states of chronic fatigue.
Practical recommendations
- Invigorating massage: Warm the oil slightly and massage the whole body with long movements toward the heart. Let it absorb into the skin for 15 minutes before showering. The skin will remain extremely smooth and elastic.
- Rough areas: Apply topically to elbows and heels to soften thickened skin, as the emollient properties of rapeseed and sesame are very effective here.
Synergies in body care
For muscle relaxation, combine with Eucalyptus Essential Oil or Wintergreen Essential Oil. For skin firmness, it associates well with Ivy Oil.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Will Amla oil darken my hair color?
- Occasional use does not change hair shade, but frequent application can slightly darken blonde or platinum hair, adding warm highlights to it. It is an ideal product for brown or dark hair, whose natural color it can intensify over time.
- How do you wash it out of the hair?
- It requires thorough shampooing. We recommend applying the shampoo without water initially to emulsify the grease, rinsing, and then performing a normal second shampooing.
- Can I leave it in my hair overnight?
- Yes, it is actually recommended. The overnight treatment allows the nutrients to penetrate the cuticle and deeply moisturize the scalp.
- Does it smell strong?
- The product has a specific, natural, herbal, and slightly spicy scent, given by the Amla fruits and sesame oil. It contains no synthetic fragrance to mask this authentic aroma.
- Does it help with hair growth?
- Yes, by improving scalp health and nourishing the follicles. Regular massage with Amla oil stimulates microcirculation, which is essential for a healthy growth cycle.
Technical data, quality
The product is an oily macerate. Amla fruits do not contain enough lipids to produce an oil by pressing, which is why they are infused in stable carrier oils. The choice of the Sesame and Brassica base is not accidental, but respects the ayurvedic principles of stability and penetrability.
The main active compounds are:
- Tannins (Emblicanin A and B): Polyphenols with powerful astringent and antioxidant properties, which bind to hair keratin, strengthening it.
- Vitamin C (traces): Although vitamin C is water-soluble, the whole Amla extract retains antioxidant co-factors that protect the oil and the skin.
- Linoleic and Oleic Acid: Essential fatty acids from the base oils that provide emollience.
- Erucic Acid (from Brassica): A long-chain fatty acid that provides a "natural silicone" effect, smoothing the hair without chemical buildup.
- Flavonoids: Quercetin and kaempferol, which protect against UV radiation.
Warnings, Safety data
General precautions
- Cosmetic product for external use only. Do not ingest.
- Perform a patch test before first use.
- Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly with water in case of accident.
Safety in use
Amla oil is generally very safe. However, people with an allergy to sesame or to plants from the Brassicaceae family (mustard, rapeseed) should avoid this product. Because it can stimulate circulation, it may produce a slight warming or tingling sensation on the scalp, which is normal, but persistent irritation requires discontinuing use.
Storage, preservation
- Store in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight.
- Close the container tightly after each use to prevent oxidation.

Why we love it
We love Amla oil because it brings the millenary wisdom of India directly into our care routine. It is the secret of Indian women for that gorgeous, long, thick, and shiny hair we all admire. We like that it is an honest product, which smells of plants and nature, and which offers visible strengthening and volume results without resorting to synthetic chemicals. It is a true "nourisher" for hair hungry for vitality.

I often use this amla macerate as a mask before shampooing. Most of the time , however, I apply it on the ends, on dry hair , after shampoo and mask. Hair combs extremely easily, has more volume and shine.

I have been using amla oil for a month and a half. For hair I used it as an evening mask until morning. After washing the hair remains silky (I have coarse and dry hair that I dye with henna) and moisturized, and the white strands are not noticeable so quickly. Also, even if it wasn't specified on the website, I used it as a night cream after cleansing. My complexion is slightly dry to combination. In the morning my face is as smooth as I have never had it, no matter what creams I would have used. I recommend the oil with confidence and it is definitely on the list for my next order!

I used it in hair masks and I was very pleased with the results, both me and my clients; I noticed an immediate decrease in hair loss, which was maintained even long after applying the mask (hair fell less and less), and even if for a while I didn't apply that mask

I was very excited to learn that this oil is now part of the Elemental offering. After the pleasant experience I had with the Amla powder, I immediately ordered the oil as well and am waiting to test it for a while to form an opinion. Thank you, Elemental!

Even though I made an oily macerate with castor oil and amla powder for my hair, I thought to try this already prepared amla oil anyway. I am very satisfied because I am enjoying the benefits of amla (after just a few days, my hair is stronger) without being left with oily hair after daily application.
