Product Description of Kottakkal GandhakaTailam

Kottakkal GandhakaTailam is a time-honoured Ayurvedic medicated oil, carefully prepared by Kottakkal’s traditional methods. Infused with purified Gandhaka (sulphur), this herbo-mineral oil has been popular for centuries in addressing stubborn skin concerns. It’s not just a lotion—this oil feels warm and grounding on touch, reminding you of ancient healing rituals. You might feel a slight warming sensation at first, but it settles down as you massage it in.

Whether you’re troubled by persistent dermatitis or occasional scabies flare-ups, GandhakaTailam offers targeted relief. Some folks also take it internally, under expert supervision, to support skin health from the inside out. And oh—don’t be surprised if a whiff of its distinctive, earthy aroma brings back memories of old Ayurvedic clinics or your grandmother’s remedy chest. It’s quite the experience, really.

Apply it liberally to the affected area, allow it to sit, and let the medicated oil work its wonders. Used regularly, it helps restore balance to your skin’s micro-environment, encouraging faster recovery and helping to keep fungal invaders at bay. Just one drop can be potent, so a little often goes a long way. Seriously, you don’t want to overdo it—start small!
