A ROYAL AROMATIC OIL POSSESSING GREAT BENEFITS!!
Kumkumadi oil is an amazing ayurvedic concoction of herbs that acts as a magical remedy for uplifting skin health and treating various skin issues. This oil, which can also be used as a moisturiser is suitable for almost all skin types specifically for sensitive or dry flaky skin. A wonderful blend of plant, flower, fruit, and milk extracts, make this tailam or oil a wholesome beauty product that aims towards lightening the complexion, diminishing various signs of aging like wrinkles, fine lines, dark circles, spots, pimples, blemishes, and effectively treating skin infections and conditions like hyperpigmentation, allergy, eczema, etc.
Coined as a ’miraculous elixir’, this oil when applied regularly is said to make your skin glow like gold. ‘Kumkumadi oil’ which literally translates into ‘saffron oil’ in English is known for its luminescent properties. This oil is renowned for its use in rejuvenating and renewing the skin cells, illuminating the skin and bestowing a young and healthy appearance. As suggested by the name, the main ingredient in this oil is the red thread-like pollen particles obtained from the vibrant purple coloured saffron flower which goes by the botanical name Crocus sativus. Saffron threads rich in antioxidants are famous in lightening the skin colour and improving complexion. The potent warming and kantivardhaka properties of saffron normalises the Pitta and Vata doshas.
Being a powerhouse of antioxidants, this oil influences the epidermal inflammatory response of this skin, which in turn encourages oxidation of arachidonic acid and stimulates the release of leukotrienes, prostaglandins, etc. These chemicals released to modify the activity of melanocytes and immune cells, which most likely results in hyperpigmentation. Thanks to its potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, properties, Kumkumadi tailam breaks the chain of these chemical processes by dropping inflammation and exercising antioxidant action. It also reduces the release of the pigment melanin in the skin which lightens the skin colour and prevents any dark patches and spots.
The oil is beneficial for all skin types but it is strictly advised for people having oily skin to use it in minute quantity so that it doesn’t make the skin greasy. This magical tincture devoid of side effects is extremely beneficial for the skin. It holds high significance in improving skin complexion, reducing acne, pimples, and other skin infections, diminishing dark circles and pigmentation and promoting overall skin health.
ONE OF THE BEST OIL’S TO USE IN YOUR ROUTINE .
