Daily Face Use –Quantity 1 teaspoon Kolarakku powder –Mix with one of these: -1–2 teaspoons rose water (best for oily skin) OR plain water OR thin curd/yogurt if your skin feels dull —How to apply Mix into a smooth paste (not too thick). Apply a thin layer on clean face. Leave for about 5–8 minutes only if using daily. Before washing, gently massage in circular motions. Rinse with cool or lukewarm water. Use a light moisturizer afterward if skin feels tight. —You can alternate these through the week: Kolarakku + rose water → controls oil, refreshing Kolarakku + aloe vera gel → calming and cooling Kolarakku + curd → mild glow and tan reduction Kolarakku + a pinch of kasturi turmeric → helps with acne marks (very small pinch only) ----Avoid Lemon daily (can irritate skin) Keeping it on too long Scrubbing harshly Mixing too many ingredients together -----Since you’re unsure about sensitivities Do a small patch test near your jawline once with any new ingredient combination before using it fully.

For oily skin, Kolarakku powder can be used as a gentle Ayurvedic face pack. How to use: Take ½ to 1 teaspoon Kolarakku powder Mix with rose water or plain water (for oily skin, rose water is best) You may also add a few drops of aloe vera gel for soothing effect Application: Apply a thin layer on clean face Keep for 8–12 minutes only (do not let it fully crack) Wash with cool water Frequency: Since you have oily skin, use 3–4 times a week, not strictly daily (to avoid dryness or sensitivity) Precautions: Do a patch test first (behind ear or jawline) Avoid mixing with harsh acids or strong scrubs on same day If irritation occurs, reduce frequency

Good morning. Kolarakku Powder is commonly used for improving complexion, mild pigmentation, acne marks and skin glow. How to use on face Take 1 teaspoon Kolarakku powder Mix with enough rose water or raw milk to make a smooth paste For oily/acne skin: mix with rose water For dry skin: mix with milk or aloe vera gel Apply a thin layer on face, avoid eyes. Keep for 10–15 minutes and wash with normal water. Use 2–3 times weekly. For pigmentation/tan: Add a pinch of turmeric and ½ teaspoon sandalwood powder

●For Glowing Skin (General): Mix Kolarakku powder with Rose Water. This creates a cooling paste that helps soothe the skin. •For Dry Skin: Mix it with Milk or Malai (Milk Cream). The fats in the milk provide deep hydration while the powder works on the skin texture. •For Oily Skin: Mix with Honey or Curd (Yogurt). Honey acts as a natural humectant without adding oil, while curd contains lactic acid which helps cleanse pores. •It is frequently mixed with Nalpamaradi Thailam or Kumkumadi Tailam for a more intensive treatment aimed at brightening ●Preparation: Mix 1/2 teaspoon of Kolarakku powder with enough liquid (rose water, milk, etc.) to form a smooth, consistent paste. •Cleanse: Wash your face with a mild cleanser and pat dry. •Apply: Use your fingertips or a brush to apply an even layer to your face, avoiding the sensitive area around the eyes. •Duration: Leave the mask on for about 10-15 minutes. Do not let it get bone-dry, as this can pull moisture from the skin. •Rinse: Gently massage with lukewarm water in circular motions while rinsing to provide mild exfoliation. •Moisturize: Always follow up with a light moisturizer. ●Staining: Kolarakku has a natural reddish-brown pigment. Depending on the purity and your skin tone, it may leave a very slight temporary tint. Using milk or curd helps minimize this.•Patch Test: Before applying it to your entire face, apply a small amount behind your ear or on your inner forearm. Wait 24 hours to ensure you don’t have a sensitive reaction to the resin. Use this 1-2 times a week. Over-exfoliating with powders can sometimes irritate the skin barrier.

Kolarakku powder ko face par daily use kar sakte ho, lekin mild form me use karna better hota hai, especially oily skin ke liye. Isko hamesha kisi mild base ke saath mix karo, direct dry powder face par na lagao. Use karne ka simple tarika: 1/2 teaspoon Kolarakku powder lo Rose water ya normal water ke saath paste banao Oily skin ke liye thoda sa curd bhi mix kar sakte ho Face par thin layer lagao, 10–15 minutes rakhkar wash kar lo Daily use se better 3–4 times per week use karein Agar dryness ya irritation ho to frequency kam kar do. Regards, Dr Raghuveer (Ayurvedacharya)
