Research & Development at Zita Ayurveda
At Zita Ayurveda, research is not about chasing trends or creating quick fixes. It is about understanding the depth of Ayurvedic wisdom, translating it responsibly into modern formulations, and ensuring that every product we create is safe, effective, and rooted in authenticity.
Our Philosophy: Research with Responsibility
We believe that true innovation in Ayurveda comes from respecting its classical foundations while adapting them thoughtfully for contemporary use. Our research process is guided by three core principles: authenticity to Ayurvedic texts, safety for long-term use, and effectiveness that can be felt and trusted.
Every formulation begins with a question: What does the skin or scalp truly need? We then turn to classical Ayurvedic texts to understand how ingredients have been traditionally used, their properties, and their synergies. This knowledge forms the foundation of our research.
From there, we work to create formulations that are not only effective but also gentle, stable, and suitable for daily use. Our approach is slow, deliberate, and deeply rooted in the belief that wellness cannot be rushed.
From Classical Texts to Contemporary Use
Classical Texts
We study foundational Ayurvedic texts like Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, and Bhavaprakasha to understand the traditional use of herbs and their therapeutic properties.
Ingredient Understanding
Each ingredient is evaluated for its Ayurvedic properties, modern scientific validation, and compatibility with skin and scalp health.
Modern Adaptation
We translate classical wisdom into modern formulations that are stable, effective, and suitable for contemporary lifestyles while maintaining Ayurvedic integrity.

No Harsh Actives
We avoid ingredients that may provide quick results but compromise long-term skin health. Our formulations are designed for sustained wellness.
Gentle by Design
Every product is formulated to be gentle enough for daily use while being effective enough to deliver visible results over time.
Transparency in Ingredients
We believe in complete transparency. Every ingredient serves a purpose, and we are committed to explaining why it is included.
Founder-Led Research Direction
Dr. Rashmi Ved, founder of Zita Ayurveda, brings over two decades of clinical experience in Ayurvedic dermatology and wellness. Her hands-on involvement in research ensures that every formulation is grounded in both classical knowledge and practical understanding of skin and scalp concerns.
Her approach is not about creating products for the sake of expansion, but about addressing real needs with thoughtful, research-backed solutions. She personally oversees ingredient selection, formulation development, and quality standards to ensure that every product reflects the values of authenticity, safety, and effectiveness.
Continuous Learning & Evolution
Research at Zita Ayurveda is not a one-time process. It is an ongoing commitment to learning, refining, and evolving. We continuously study new developments in cosmetic science, gather feedback from our community, and revisit our formulations to ensure they remain effective and relevant.
