(Processed as per Tail Pak Vidhi)

Here is the list of ingredients of the bottle I have...your ingredients look completely different from what I am speaking of...my bottle and ingredients are the following:
(Not trying to scare anyone with the TBHQ , as I stated before, just an FYI):

Wow, I don't get it. Your ingredients was worded just like in your reference? But I have the same bottle! Look: http://public.fotki.com/miami74/my-products/products-i-use/068.html Maybe some of the other ladies can chime in about this difference. I would like to know if mine contains "TBHQ" :perplexed

there must be two formulas b/c I found a pic of this one, 1 and this one, 2. So perhaps there is a version for export, sold outside of india and a version for native sales, for sales inside india. For the record, the ingredients are the essentially the same except for the sugandhit dravyas (aromatic drugs), the dugdha (ayurvedic milk cleanser?) and the TBHQ. Does it work? YES, for me.

I found this at an Indian grocery store last wee. Actually, I love the smell ;it's different, The shine it gives is amazing and it keep my hair (particularly the NG) very soft. There is a very high possibility that this will become a staple.

I'm thinking of trying this on my natural hair. I used this years ago when I was relaxed and remember it making my hair soft and shiny (I never used it on my scalp).

I sure do; I use this to prepoo, on my scalp, and for the LOC method. Has anyone tried the new formula with hibiscus?

Isn't hydroquinone toxic ?
Hydroquinone is a popular ingredient in bleaching creams it's a lightening agent. It's banned for sale in Europe and products with up to 4% can be sold in the US over the counter. My Vatika oil doesn't have hydroquinone, nor would it make sense to have it since it's an ingredient mostly added to skin creams

It contains TBHQ
tert-Butylhydroquinone (TBHQ, tertiary butylhydroquinone) is an aromaticorganic compound which is a type of phenol. It is a derivative of hydroquinone, substituted with a tert-butyl group.
