Chironjee, also known as Buchanania lanzan or charoli, is a tropical evergreen tree native to India. The seeds of the chironjee tree, often referred to as "cuddapah almonds," have been used in Indian cuisine and traditional medicine for centuries. Chironjee seeds are rich in Vitamin C, B1, B2 and niacin, all of which benefit skin and hair health.

Historically, women in India used a mixture of several dals and pulses as a face and body scrub to promote radiant and healthy skin. One of the major ingredients of the scrub was ground chironjee seeds.
