Kumkumadi Radiance

Kumkumadi Radiance is based on Kumkumadi Taila, a classical Saundarya (beauty) oil. It combines Kumkuma (saffron), Chandana (sandalwood), Manjishtha and Yashtimadhu (liquorice) in sesame oil. In Ayurveda these herbs are classed as Varnya (support complexion), and Chandana and Yashtimadhu are Pittahara (balance Pitta). The oil is traditionally used as a light night-time facial massage to support a radiant, even-looking complexion and soft skin. For external use only. Do a patch test first.
