A treasured beauty secret with roots in Himalayan soil and timeless tradition.

Unlike its culinary cousin Curcuma longa, Curcuma aromatica—known as Wild Turmeric or Kasturi Manjal—has been cherished for centuries in Ayurvedic beauty rituals. Indigenous to the Eastern Himalayas and Southeast Asia, this aromatic root is especially prized for its non-staining properties and gentle effect on the skin, supporting complexion.

What makes it so special? While regular turmeric became a global kitchen staple, wild turmeric remained a well-kept secret in traditional skincare across India. Ancient Ayurvedic texts praise it as a “varnya dravya”—a herb used in bridal preparations, detox routines, and sacred ceremonies.

Wild turmeric is like a secret beauty keeper—sharing ancient radiance rituals passed through generations of mountain brides.

Benefits

Wild Turmeric supports a radiant complexion.

It supports skin comfort with its soothing properties, supporting a clear, smooth feel.

Known as a deep cleanser in Ayurveda, it supports skin vitality and resilience, especially for oily skin types.

Rich in antioxidants, it supports a refreshed, balanced glow.

How to use

To support sunburned area, make a paste of sandalwood and turmeric by mixing equal amounts of these herbs with a little cool water and apply.

Face Pack for supporting glowing and younger skin: Regular use of a face pack made by mixing Kasturi manjal with yogurt or milk (can be plant-based) helps to cleanse the skin from deep within.

Mustard oil together with Wild Turmeric supports muscle strength and inflammation making it great for at-home body massage.

Cooling and hydrating face pack:
1/4tsp of Turmeric powder + 1/2tsp Rose petal powder + 1/4tsp Bentonite Clay Powder + 1 Tbsp yoghurt or milk (can be plant-based too).

Mix all ingredients together to make a thick paste, apply to skin and leave it for 20mins, then wash it off using cold water. You can adjust the quantities as per your convenience. 

Safety & Precautions

Please ensure you always do patch tests prior to use.
