Kumkumadi Oil - Key Ingredients and Their Benefits
Shankara’s Timeless Kumkumadi Oil features 32 carefully selected ingredients as prescribed in the 5000 year old Ayurvedic texts. It's packed full with tumeric, saffron, red sandalwood, sesame oil, wild Himalayan cherry and other goodies! Among them, the following are the key ingredients:
Saffron (Kumkuma): The star ingredient, saffron, is celebrated for its skin-brightening properties. It helps to lighten dark spots and promote an even skin tone, giving your skin a natural glow. Kumkumadi oil gets its name from this ingredient.
Sandalwood (Chandan): Sandalwood’s soothing qualities make it ideal for calming inflammation and reducing blemishes. It also adds a touch of aromatic luxury to the oil.
Manjistha (Rubia cordifolia): Known for its detoxifying effects, Manjistha helps to purify the blood and clear up skin impurities, promoting a clear and radiant complexion.
Vetiver (Khus-Khus): Vetiver is renowned for its hydrating properties, helping to keep the skin moist and supple.
A2 Cow’s Milk: Unique to Shankara's Timeless Kumkumadi oil, A2 cow milk is used to enhance the oil's moisturising and exfoliating properties. Rich in lactic acid, it helps to gently exfoliate and hydrate the skin.
Lotus Flower: The lotus flower, rich in flavonoids, elevates skincare formulations with its potent antibacterial and antioxidant properties. These benefits promote better blood circulation, boost collagen production, maintain skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Additionally, the lotus flower aids in pore and oil management. Studies show that this skin-balancing flower regulates sebum production while preserving the skin's natural hydration, making it ideal for those with oily or acne-prone skin, as well as for preventing acne and clogged pores.
How is Kumkumadi Oil Made: An Ancient Preparation Process
The preparation of Shankara's Timeless Kumkumadi Oil is what sets it apart from others. We use and adhere to the meticulous and time-honored process that involves the use of precious herbs and natural ingredients. Here’s a basic step-by-step overview of how this potent elixir is traditionally crafted:
Base Oil Preparation: The process begins with the selection of a high-quality cold pressed sesame oil. Sesame oil is revered in Ayurveda for its nourishing and penetrative properties.
Herbal Decoction: A decoction is prepared using a combination of herbs and plant extracts. The primary ingredient is saffron (Kumkuma), which gives the oil its name and its distinctive golden hue. Other key ingredients include sandalwood, manjistha (Indian madder), and various herbs renowned for their skin-benefiting properties.
Milk Infusion: One of the unique aspects of Kumkumadi Oil preparation is the use of cow’s milk. The herbs are first infused in milk, which helps to extract their water-soluble properties. Milk, rich in lactic acid, also adds to the moisturising and exfoliating properties of the oil.
Oil Infusion: After the milk infusion, the herbal decoction is slowly infused into the base oil over low heat. This process ensures that the active compounds from the herbs and milk are thoroughly absorbed into the oil. The infusion is done with great care, by hand, often taking several days to complete.
Final Filtration: Once the infusion is complete, the oil is carefully filtered to remove any solid residues. The result is a clear, golden oil rich in herbal radiant goodness.
Storage and Maturation: The oil is then stored in a cool, dark place to allow the ingredients to synergize further. This maturation process enhances the oil’s potency and effectiveness.
How to Use Shankara's Timeless Kumkumadi Oil
For best results, apply a few drops (yes, that's is all is you need!) of Timeless Kumkumadi Oil to your face before bedtime, after thoroughly cleansing and drying your face. Gently massage it into your skin using upward circular motions. Let it absorb overnight. Regular use can help to brighten your complexion, reduce fine lines, reduce pigmentation and keep your skin hydrated and glowing. Results are evident from the first application.
Will Kumkumadi Oil Get Rid of the Dark Circles Under My Eyes?
Kumkumadi Oil is highly regarded for its effectiveness in addressing hyperpigmentation issues, particularly dark spots. Regular application of Kumkumadi Oil is known to gradually diminish the visibility of dark spots, leading to a glowing complexion and a more even and radiant skin tone.
The oil works by targeting the underlying causes of pigmentation, such as sun damage or hormonal changes, helping to restore the skin's natural color and texture. Its potency in reducing pigmentation is enhanced when used consistently over time, making it a preferred choice for those seeking a natural solution to improve their skin's appearance.
