Kumkumadi Lepam is an ancient ayurvedic recipe consisting of precious Ayurvedic ingredients as detailed in the ancient texts of beauty secrets. This cream is very effective in improving the colour (complexion) and texture of the skin and is also effective for pimples, black marks and rings under the eye.
Each ingredient is specifically chosen to render this luxurious blend most beneficial for the toning and enrichment of the skin. This potent skin treatment includes rare and common herbs, flowers, and spices from all across India that are aromatic and soothing to the nerves, cooling and calming to the body, and effective for a variety of other conditions. The central ingredient of this blend is the rare saffron stigma and corolla, held by ayurveda to be a royal spice which invigorates and imparts a golden glow to the skin.
Kumkumadi Lepam, by Nagarjuna, is a classical Ayurvedic saffron-based face cream/paste traditionally used to support a clear, even, glowing complexion. Built on kumkuma (saffron) with sandalwood, lodhra, manjishtha, and other classical beauty herbs, it is traditionally valued for supporting skin tone and texture, softening the look of pimples, dark marks, and under-eye circles, and imparting a natural glow. "Lepam" means it is the paste/cream form, applied to the skin. It is for external use.

+What is the difference between Kumkumadi Lepam and Kumkumadi Tailam?
Both are classical saffron-based Kumkumadi complexion preparations; the difference is the form. Kumkumadi Lepam is the paste/cream (lepa), applied as a richer face pack or spot treatment and left on, while Kumkumadi Tailam is the lighter facial oil, massaged in as a few drops. They share the same saffron-led tradition for tone, glow, and softening blemishes; choose the lepam for a pack-style application and the oil for daily massage.

+How does Kumkumadi Lepam work?
Kumkumadi Lepam is traditionally used as a face pack to support a clear, even complexion. Saffron, sandalwood, and the supporting herbs are traditionally valued for supporting skin tone and texture, softening the look of pimples, black marks, and under-eye circles, and giving the skin a natural golden glow, soothing and toning as they go. This is supportive, traditional cosmetic skin care for the look of the skin; persistent acne or skin concerns should be assessed by a dermatologist. It is not intended to treat any disease.
+How do you use Kumkumadi Lepam?
Apply a thin layer of the lepam to clean facial skin (or to specific marks), leave it on for a short while as it is absorbed or as a brief pack, then rinse gently with water. A few pointers:
Use on clean, dry skin, ideally in the evening.
A little goes a long way; avoid the eyes.
For external use only. This is a 10g pack.
