Product Description of Kottakkal Ayyappala Keratailam
Kottakkal Ayyappala Keratailam is a time-honored Ayurvedic herbal oil crafted in Kerala’s traditional way – it's a little rough around the edges but deeply caring. This golden-brown oil is specially formulated for external use on stubborn skin issues like psoriasis, eczema, allergic dermatitis, and fungal infections. At first glance, its texture may seem thick, but once warmed between your palms, it glides smoothly, soothing inflamed patches instantly (many users find it oddly comforting though it takes a minute to get used to).
Derived from pure coconut oil infused with potent botanical extracts, this oil invites the skin’s natural healing while locking in moisture. You can also mix 20 g of Eladi Churnam with 100 ml of this oil to enhance its soothing qualities for seborrheic dermatitis or simply use it solo for dandruff relief. After application, leave it on for 30–60 minutes, and wash off with lukewarm water; it really helps to soften and clear flaky spots.
Despite its serious benefits, Ayyappala Keratailam carries a simple, down-to-earth vibe — like an old friend who always shows up when things get rough. Over weeks of regular use, you’ll start noticing calmer skin, less scaling, and renewed confidence. Note: it’s not magic, but pretty close.
