HerbtoniQ kasturi haldi powder is aromatic wild turmeric, the haldi kept aside for beauty rather than cooking. Called kasturi manjal in the south, it is a favourite for haldi ceremonies, bridal ubtans and everyday face packs, loved for its distinctive fragrance.
Key Benefits
- Supports a naturally glowing-looking complexion in face packs and ubtans.
- Helps reduce the look of tan when used regularly with besan, milk or curd.
- Leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and clean.
- Aromatic and for external use, unlike the turmeric used in the kitchen.
- Only a small amount is needed, so each jar lasts a long time.
What’s Inside
2 jars of 125 g each, 250 g in total:
- 2 × Kasturi Haldi (Wild Turmeric) Powder, 125 g – the dried, ground rhizome of Curcuma aromatica. It is traditionally used in Ayurveda and in Indian homes for lepas and ubtans, and is not meant for cooking.
How to Use
- Face pack: mix ¼–½ teaspoon of kasturi haldi with 1 teaspoon of besan or sandalwood powder.
- Add curd, raw milk or rose water and stir to a smooth paste.
- Apply on a clean face and neck, avoiding the eye area, and leave for 10–15 minutes.
- Rinse with lukewarm water. Use once or twice a week.
- Body ubtan: blend with besan and milk, massage gently on damp skin in circular strokes, then rinse.
- Patch test 24 hours before first use. Haldi may leave a light yellow tint on skin, nails and fabric; it washes off skin with a mild cleanser.
Who Is It For
For men and women of all skin types who enjoy traditional ubtans, and a must-have for brides and grooms preparing for a haldi function. Sensitive skin should start with just a pinch mixed into curd.
Why HerbtoniQ
HerbtoniQ kasturi haldi is a single-ingredient powder, finely milled so it blends evenly into besan and curd without specks. It is hygienically packed in India in two 125 g jars to keep the aroma fresh.
