As we often hear, mango is the king of fruits, but for all of us, it is the king of memories as it has been connected to our very close memories of helping our grandmother or mother prepare the very famous 'Aam ka achar' or for our member of #AmrutamFamily, Sakshi Dobhal, it is being served some cold Aam Panna on a hot summer day. Hence we feel mangos play an important role in preserving these memories in our minds.

Even now slowly but surely, you've started noticing that the Mango Boxes have been increasing in your house, and your favorite cafes and restaurants have added a special mango menu to their board.

So we thought we should also contribute to the mango madness with our favorite recipes handpicked from our team's and followers' kitchens, beginning from the basic breakfast to the very lavish dessert at the end of the day.

Amrutam Face Clean Up Reviews

Currently on my second bottle and happy with how this product has kept acne & breakouts in check. It doesn't leave the skin too dry and also doubles as a face mask.

Juhi Bhatt

Amrutam face clean up works great on any skin type, it has helped me keep my skin inflammation in check, helps with acne and clear the open pores. Continuous usage has helped lighten the pigmentation and scars as well. I have recommended the face clean up to many people and they have all loved it!!

Sakshi Dobhal

This really changed the game of how to maintain skin soft supple and glowing! I’m using it since few weeks and see hell lot of difference in the skin I had before and now. I don’t need any makeup or foundation to cover my skin imperfections since now they are slowly fading away after I started using this! I would say this product doesn’t need any kind of review because it’s above par than expected. It’s a blind buy honestly . I’m looking forward to buy more products and repeat this regularly henceforth.
