A Legacy of Authentic Ayurveda

Kerala Ayurveda Limited (KAL) enshrines this purest and unbroken Ayurvedic tradition that goes back well beyond 5,000 years. It is one of the oldest (Founded more than 80 years ago) Ayurveda companies in the world and the only full-spectrum listed Ayurveda company spanning academies, products, research, clinics, hospitals, resorts, and wellness services.

The Ayurvedic Approach to Skin & Scalp Comfort

In Ayurveda-inspired routines, calming body and scalp oils serve as daily nourishment—simple steps that help skin look soft, hydrated, and comfortable. After a warm shower, massage a light layer onto damp skin to seal in moisture and support a smooth, healthy-looking finish. For the scalp, a pre-wash oiling (leave on 20–30 minutes) conditions at the roots and helps hair feel well cared for after shampooing. These blends pair traditional botanicals—such as sandalwood, cardamom, vetiver, and turmeric—with nurturing carrier oils like coconut or sesame to comfort dryness without heaviness. Keep routines minimal: cleanse → apply oil to damp skin → towel blot; for scalp, oil before shampoo once or twice weekly. Pair with sunscreen, steady hydration, and consistent sleep for the best cosmetic results. These are cosmetic oils intended to enhance the look and feel of skin and scalp; always patch test and follow the label.

FAQ

1) What do calming body and scalp oils actually do?
These cosmetic oils are designed to enhance the look and feel of skin and scalp—helping dryness feel more comfortable, softening rough patches, and adding a healthy-looking sheen. On the scalp, a light pre-wash oiling can condition at the roots so hair feels better cared for after shampooing. They’re not medicines; think of them as daily nourishment for skin comfort and a well-groomed look.

2) How should I use them after a shower for the best results?
Towel-dry lightly, then massage a small amount onto damp skin to help seal in moisture. Give it a minute to absorb before dressing. For a richer finish, layer over your usual body lotion; for a lighter feel, use less and focus on dry zones like shins and elbows. Consistency—most days of the week—matters more than the exact amount.

3) What’s the right way to oil my scalp?
Use as a pre-wash ritual: apply a small amount to the scalp and lengths, gently massage, leave on 20–30 minutes, then shampoo as usual. Start once weekly and adjust based on how your scalp feels. If you’re prone to buildup, keep the amount minimal and rinse thoroughly. Always patch test first and avoid broken or irritated skin.

4) Will these oils feel heavy or greasy?
Kerala Ayurveda’s blends are formulated to be lightweight and spreadable. Apply to damp skin, use less than you think, and build only if needed. If you prefer an airier feel, choose coconut-oil–based Eladi Keram; if you like a more traditional cushion, Eladi Thailam (sesame base) offers a classic glide. Blot any excess with a towel.

5) Which oil should I choose—Winsoria, Eladi Keram, or Eladi Thailam?
Choose Winsoria for a calm-comfort feel on easily-agitated skin and for pre-wash scalp care. Pick Eladi Keram (coconut base) if you want a dewy, glow-forward finish on dry skin. Opt for Eladi Thailam (sesame base) if you prefer a traditional, everyday body oil that supports an even-looking tone. Texture preference is a great tiebreaker.

6) Are these suitable for sensitive skin and color-treated hair?
Many users with sensitive skin enjoy these oils, but everyone is different—patch test on a small area for 24–48 hours first. Use a minimal amount on the scalp if your hair is color-treated and shampoo thoroughly. If irritation or unusual discomfort occurs, stop use and consult a professional. For facial use, test carefully or choose a dedicated face oil.

7) Can I combine these oils with other products (lotion, sunscreen, shampoo)?
Yes. For body care, apply lotion first and oil last to seal in hydration; sunscreen should always be your final daytime step. For scalp care, oil before shampoo only. Keep routines simple so you can stay consistent, and introduce one change at a time to see what’s working for you.

8) How long until I notice improvements, and how do I store them?
Skin can feel softer and look more supple right away; the appearance of overall comfort and glow typically improves with 2–4 weeks of regular use. Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Check the label for period-after-opening guidance, and discontinue if scent, color, or texture changes noticeably.
