Nowadays, the immense emphasis is being given to the concept of “Make in India”, and it’s not just limited to making in India. Still, we are being told, again and again, even to buy and use products that are made in India. This emphasis on Indian brands is an essential step for us, as Indians, to recognise the value of our brands and the power of a unified India.
A lot of us opt for international brands for the sole reason that they are considered more effective, efficient, and some consider buying them as a mere social status.
Now, talking about the health and skincare brands and their effectiveness, several Herbal and Ayurvedic brands have developed natural products that are equally effective, giving immediate and valuable results just like our international competitors. These Indian brands even satisfy our budget and embrace the beauty of the natural herbs available in the country.
