Can I use Kottakal Kumkumadi Tailam on my combination skin nightly? - #48991

yes, you can use Kottakal Kumkumadi Tailam on its own, but for combination skin, every single night may be a bit much. - For combination skin, using 3 drops every night can sometimes lead to: Clogged pores in the T-zone Tiny bumps or breakouts over time Feeling greasy by morning Use ut- 🌙 2–3 drops Alternate nights (3–4 times a week) Option 2 (If your skin tolerates oils very well): 🌙 1–2 drops nightly, not 3 Focus more on dry areas, less on T-zone How to apply (this matters!) Cleanse your face Lightly dampen skin (rose water or plain water) Warm the oil between your palms Press, don’t massage aggressively Avoid thick layering - Absolutely do a patch test if you haven’t Apply 1 drop behind the ear or jawline for 24 hours. If you notice: Burning Redness Itching or tiny bumps → stop or reduce frequency. When NOT to use it nightly ⚠️ Avoid daily use if you: Get frequent pimples Have fungal acne Live in a very hot/humid climate Are using actives like retinoids or exfoliating acids
