Vetiver Products
Khus. The Grounding Root of South India.
Vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioides) has been used for millennia in South India for its remarkable cooling, calming, and antimicrobial properties. Ojas Botanica celebrates this indigenous botanical through handcrafted slippers and body scrubbers. Our vetiver slippers feature a thoughtfully engineered multi-layer construction (Base rubber 1st layer, 2nd coir, 3rd loofah, 4th vetiver, 5th woven cotton/muslin) — each layer chosen for foot health, comfort, and earthing. Our vetiver body scrubbers are hand-bundled from pure aromatic root fibers for a grounding, therapeutic bathing ritual.

THE RITUAL (HOW TO USE)
For slippers: Wear indoors on clean floors. The natural materials will mold gently to your foot over time. Air dry after use — never leave in damp conditions. For the body scrubber: Soak in warm water for 2 minutes before use. Apply a solid botanical soap bar and gently scrub body in slow circular motions, starting from feet upward. The earthy vetiver aroma intensifies with warm water — breathe deeply and allow the scent to ground your senses. Hang in a ventilated area to air dry after each use.
