Product Description of SDM Dashanga Lepa

SDM Dashanga Lepa is a time-tested Ayurvedic paste made from ten powerful herbs, traditionally mixed with ghee and applied topically. The word “dashanga” literally means “ten parts,” and this formula brings together ten botanicals in equal measure for a harmonious blend that targets Pitta-Kapha imbalance on the skin. Its texture is smooth, golden-brown, and easy to spread, like a comforting balm when you need it most.

This lepam has been cherished for generation, originally mentioned in Bheshaj Ratnavali, and passed down by healers who swore by its effects. It’s widely used for jvara (fever) as a forehead compress, for shotha (swelling), visarpa (herpes), kust (leprasy), and chronic eczema patches. I sometimes wonder why more folks don’t talk about such simple remedies—they really do help calm irritated skin gently.

When you apply SDM Dashanga Lepa, you’ll notice a subtle cooling and a sense of relief within minutes. It doesn’t sting or burn; rather it settles like a reassuring hand on troubled spots. Over days of use, the paste supports natural skin repair and can lessen the look of redness or rawness. Quite effective, but remember it’s for external use only—so avoid eyes or deep open wounds.

Ideal for anyone seeking a traditional approach to skin comfort without harsh chemicals, this lepam fits right into your self-care ritual. Just mix with a bit of warm ghee, spread gently, and leave it on for 30–45 minutes before rinsing. Simple, honest, and rooted in age-old wisdom.
