Benefits
of Individual ingredients
|
1. Vetiver
The uses of
vetiver in aromatherapy center on its calming, centering, relaxing effect,
which has been exploited in India for thousands of years. Vetiver is known as
"oil of tranquility", due to its psychological effect in
eliminating anxiety and soothing insomnia and depression
|
2. Green
gram Dhal - 1.5 kg
Makes the skin
very smooth.
|
3. Kasturi
Turmeric - 300 grams
This is used instead
of plain turmeric because this does not give the yellowish color on your
skin. This helps in preventing unwanted hair growth.
Turmeric acts
as a antiseptic as well

This is a is a
waxy, white or transparent solid with a strong, aromatic odor.
This is used to
