Hi I have a acne prone skin. So i stopped using soaps/creams/any cosmetic items on face for past 2 years. I use only kasthoori manjal powder. I mix it with water/lemon juice/rose water and apply daily for 5-10 minutes and wash it off. Pimples reducced to great extent. But i heard many telling me dont use daily because it will make my skin aged or get more wrinkles etc. they tell manjal is good when u use the rhizome(kilangu) directly and not to use powder. anyone has any suggestions/advice on this? Regards, AVM
Nothing wrong in applying kasthuri manjal. But no need for lime and rose water. just mix in normal water and wash off. Its good to your skin than any other soap and other cosmetic chemicals.If you have still doubt on my words mean, directly ask a siddha or ayurvedic doctor. He/She will definetly encourage using kasthuri manjal
HI AVM Its been long since saw posts from you.Hope everything went well(or is the d date still to arrive:hide I used to apply kasturi manjal kizhangu, and used to apply it on face daily before going to bed.Everyone used to say there is a profound difference on my faceI havent heard of getting wrinkles and as Kasturi suggested you can use it just with plain water.I prefer kizhangu to powder(unless made in home) because you cant be sure if it's adultered or not.
