Fenugreek, commonly known as methi, is a humble kitchen ingredient that has been used in Ayurvedic beauty rituals for centuries. Packed with vitamins A, C, and K, iron, protein, and antioxidants, fenugreek is a natural elixir for both skin and hair. Its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and moisturizing properties make it an all-in-one remedy for common beauty concerns—ranging from acne, pigmentation, and dullness to dandruff, hair fall, and dryness.

When soaked, ground, or infused into oils and masks, fenugreek seeds release a slippery, nutrient-rich gel that deeply nourishes the scalp, strengthens hair roots, and leaves skin soft and glowing. Whether used as a paste, powder, or infused water, fenugreek is a versatile and affordable ingredient that can easily become a part of your DIY beauty routine for naturally radiant skin and lustrous hair.
