Before body washes and chemical-laden soaps took over, there was Nalangu Maavu — the fragrant herbal powder our grandmothers used to bathe with. A gentle, natural cleanser that left the skin glowing, cool, and lightly scented — no chemicals, no dryness, no artificial perfumes.
With Gomuki Homemade Herbal Nalangu Maavu Soap, we’ve brought that age-old ritual back to life — in the convenience of a modern handmade bar. It’s pure, earthy, and deeply rooted in the Tamil way of self-care.
This isn’t just soap. It’s a return to simplicity — a daily ritual that keeps your skin clean, soft, and naturally radiant.
In traditional homes, Nalangu Maavu was the all-purpose beauty powder made from herbs, flowers, roots, and grains. Every family had their own version — carefully mixed to suit their skin. Used as a natural soap or face wash, it kept the skin fresh, tan-free, and glowing even under the tropical sun.
Our version is crafted with that same traditional wisdom — a handmade soap infused with real Nalangu Maavu ingredients, not synthetic “herbal” perfumes.
Each bar of Gomuki Nalangu Maavu Soap is powered by a time-honored blend of pure herbs and grains that cleanse, exfoliate, and brighten your skin the natural way:
Wild Turmeric (Kasthuri Manjal) – For glow, anti-acne, and anti-tan
Green Gram (Pachai Payaru) – Gentle exfoliation and natural cleansing
Rose Petals – Softens and soothes sensitive skin
Vetiver (Khus) – Cooling and refreshing, especially in summer
Sandalwood (Santhanam) – Reduces blemishes and brings brightness
Neem & Tulsi – Anti-bacterial protection against acne and infections
Avarampoo – Balances skin tone and prevents pigmentation
Multani Mitti (Fuller’s Earth) – Detoxifies and absorbs excess oil
Curry Leaves – Delays signs of aging, rich in antioxidants
Lemon Peel – Fades dark spots and adds mild freshness
Aloe Vera – Moisturizes without greasiness
Each ingredient is freshly powdered, mixed, and cold-processed to retain its natural scent, color, and benefits.
Most commercial soaps strip your skin’s natural oils, leaving it dry and irritated. Nalangu Maavu Soap, on the other hand, cleans without stripping, thanks to its blend of herbs and clays. It balances your skin’s pH, nourishes deeply, and protects from pollution, sweat, and sunburns.
The natural antibacterial herbs keep your skin fresh, while mild exfoliants remove dead cells and tan. Perfect for both men and women, and gentle enough for kids.
Open the wrapper, and you’ll be greeted with a subtle, earthy scent — a mix of turmeric, sandalwood, and rose. No artificial fragrance. The lather is creamy and soft, not foamy like detergent-based soaps. After bathing, your skin feels fresh, cool, and lightly fragrant, just like after a traditional herbal bath.
Wet your skin with lukewarm water.
Rub the soap gently between your hands or directly on your skin.
Massage in circular motions to let the herbs cleanse and nourish.
Leave it on for 30–60 seconds (let the herbs work their magic).
Rinse thoroughly.
Use it daily — morning or evening. Consistent use will help you notice smoother texture, natural glow, and tan reduction.
Pro Tip: For enhanced results, follow with a dab of pure coconut oil or aloe vera gel after bathing.

Every bar is handmade in small batches and cold-processed — meaning no heat, no loss of nutrients. The natural glycerin formed during the process stays within the soap, making it self-moisturizing.
We wrap each bar in biodegradable kraft paper, with plant-based ink. No plastic, no foil, no waste — just pure goodness that’s kind to your skin and the Earth.
