In the mountains, people have always trusted what nature gives them. One such gift is Chulli
Oil, made from apricot kernels grown on Himalayan slopes.
Life in the hills is shaped by cold winds, strong sun, and long outdoor days. Skin and hair need
care, not chemicals. Chulli oil became a part of everyday life. It was kept in simple bottles at
home and used by everyone.
On warm afternoons, families would sit outside in the sun. Mothers gently massaged chulli oil
into their children’s hair and bodies. It protected the skin from dryness and kept the hair strong
and healthy. There was no hurry, no fixed routine — just care passed on naturally.
Chulli oil was not used for fashion or appearance. It was used because it worked. A few drops
were enough to soothe dry skin, cracked hands, and tired bodies. Hair stayed nourished even in
harsh mountain weather.
The oil was made slowly. Apricot kernels were sun-dried and pressed in small batches. Nothing
extra was added. Nothing was taken away. The oil remained pure and close to its source.
This is not a beauty trend.
It is a tradition that quietly continues in the mountains.
