hello rani,
After pregnancy, many women notice changes in their skin tone and texture due to hormonal shifts, stress, sleep deprivation, and nutritional deficiencies. If your skin has become dull and darkened and you haven’t used any cream for six months, it’s quite natural for pigmentation to linger. The good news is that with the right Ayurvedic care, you can absolutely restore glow, tone, and clarity.
Yes, Kumkumadi Tailam is traditionally used to brighten and nourish dull, pigmented skin. It contains saffron (Kumkuma), manjistha, lodhra, and other skin-rejuvenating herbs processed in sesame oil. Many women post-pregnancy use it for pigmentation, melasma, and dark patches.
Application Method:
Cleanse your face gently with a mild herbal cleanser.
At night, apply 2–3 drops of Kumkumadi Tailam on a slightly damp face.
Massage gently in upward strokes for 1–2 minutes.
Leave it overnight or wash it off after 1–2 hours if your skin is sensitive.
Use regularly for 6–8 weeks for visible changes.
Diet Tips to Support Glow:
Drink warm water with a pinch of turmeric daily.
Include soaked almonds and raisins in the morning.
Use homemade ghee in food.
Avoid late nights, sugar, and oily snacks.
Recommended brands (authentic and classical):
Kerala Ayurveda Kumkumadi Tailam
Arya Vaidya Pharmacy (AVP) Kumkumadi Tailam
TAC – The Ayurveda Co. Kumkumadi Oil
You can find these on their official websites, Amazon, or Ayurvedic stores like Jeeva, AVP, Kama Ayurveda, or even Netmeds.
Start slowly, be consistent, and let your skin heal naturally. No harsh actives are needed. You’re doing well already by being cautious and patient. With regular care, the skin will gradually regain brightness.
If you have any doubts, you can contact me.
Take care,
Regards, Dr. Karthika
