Kumkumadi Oil is a treasured Ayurvedic facial-oil preparation traditionally made with saffron and a complex blend of botanicals.
At Tara Herbals, we honor this time-tested tradition through a carefully prepared, small-batch formulation made in the USA.
Rather than simply blending a few botanical extracts into an oil, our preparation brings together saffron, sesame oil, goat milk, Dashamoola and numerous traditional botanicals through a layered preparation process.
The result is a rich, aromatic facial oil created for a beautiful, intentional skincare ritual.

WHAT MAKES OUR KUMKUMADI OIL DIFFERENT?

IT'S MORE THAN SAFFRON.
Saffron may be the star, but Kumkumadi is a complex botanical formulation.
Our preparation includes:
Saffron • Red Sandalwood • Manjistha • Licorice • Blue Lotus • Sacred Lotus • Vetiver • Padmaka • Daruhaldi
along with Dashamoola, the traditional group of ten roots.
WHAT IS DASHAMOOLA?
Dashamoola means "ten roots" and refers to a traditional Ayurvedic group of ten botanicals incorporated into our preparation.
This botanical complexity is one of the defining characteristics of our Kumkumadi Oil.

YOUR NIGHTLY RITUAL

1. CLEANSE
Start with clean, dry skin.
2. APPLY
Warm a few drops between your fingertips.
3. MASSAGE
Gently press and massage over your face and neck.
4. RELAX
Allow the oil to settle into your skin and make it part of your evening ritual.
Tip: Start with a few drops. A little goes a long way.

WHEN SHOULD I USE IT?

We love Kumkumadi Oil as an evening facial ritual.
It can be used after your water-based skincare and moisturizer, or as the final step of your routine.
If using during the day, follow your skincare routine with sunscreen.

WHO IS IT FOR?

Kumkumadi Oil is ideal for adults/teenagers who enjoy:
•    Botanical facial oils
•    Traditional Indian beauty rituals
•    Rich, nourishing skincare
•    Saffron-based formulations
•    Simple, intentional skincare routines
If you have sensitive skin or known ingredient sensitivities, patch test before use.

SKIN TYPE & HOW TO USE

Kumkumadi Oil can be incorporated into all skin types night routine. Because it is a rich facial oil, we recommend starting with a small amount and adjusting based on how your skin feels.
OILY SKIN
Start with 1 drop and observe how your skin responds.
•    Leave on for 15 minutes, then rinse, or
•    Leave overnight if your skin feels comfortable.
•    You may gradually increase to 2 drops if needed.
•    Do not exceed 2 drops.
DRY SKIN
Kumkumadi Oil is especially suited to a richer skincare ritual for dry-feeling skin.
•    Start with 2 drops and leave overnight.
•    If needed, gradually increase to 3 drops.
•    Adjust according to how your skin feels.
COMBINATION SKIN
Start with 1 drop and observe how your skin responds.
•    If your skin feels comfortable, gradually increase to 2–3 drops as needed.
•    Use less on areas that tend to become oily.
•    Do not exceed 3 drops.
NEW TO FACIAL OILS?
Start small. Your skin doesn't need a lot of oil to enjoy the ritual. Patch test before your first full-face application and adjust the amount based on your skin's response. 

WHAT CAN I EXPECT?

With regular use, skin can feel:
Soft • Supple • Nourished • Moisturized
And your complexion can look:
Fresh • Radiant • Smooth • Well cared for
Every person's skin is different, so we encourage you to make Kumkumadi Oil part of a consistent, enjoyable ritual rather than expecting overnight results.
