My Experience :
I think after Jomol wrote about the miraculous properties for Kumkumadi, all of us wanted to give it a try. I have been using the Kama Kumkumadi for a while now and I am slightly on the edge of loving it.
The oil comes in a tiny dark glass bottle with very small opening at the top.
It is absolutely great for skin:
- it definitely brightens up the complexion. I have seen the difference in my skin.
- it nourishes my dry skin like no other beauty fluid has ever done. For those with oily skin, I’d suggest that you do spot treatment with this. This oil is too rich to be applied overall.
- I mostly apply it at night and by morning my skin looks super soft, nourished and healthy. almost like I have had a facial last night.
- it is 100 % ayurvedic.
- it is an amazing anti ageing product.
- it is bit sticky. Since you have to use only very little of it, it gets absorbed within a few minutes.

Ohhh no wonder your face been glowing like a bulb in all the pics!!:P:P:P
Wow…why don’t we get Kama here….:( he he…I know the stink….its too bad na …ha ha
jomo but you get kumkumadi no. you were the one who introduced everyone to it. 🙂
Rati, Please let me know, do you apply moisturizer after applying this oil.
Kindly Confirm please.
I so agree with Priyanka… we have all been wondering about that miraculous product which made you all glowy… and now we know! yayy!
i dont have a partner, so i guess i should definitely try it… haha
but jokes apart, i am seriously looting the kama store next… a lot of good reviews have been coming up:)
actually a lot of it has to do with makeup also but yeah this works. hihihih good for you. you’d remember my words when you have one. loll!!
Jomol, you live in Hyd right??
We get kama products at Good Earth, Banjara Hills Rd No. 12 🙂
if it works on my scars n pigmentations i dont mind the smell n will even ask hubby to sleep in the next bedroom..lol 😀 thanks for the review n awesome pics
hihihih!!! thank you :))
Nice review Rati..i agree the smell is a turn off.. but it is worth a try..:-).. and yes applying rose water or probably panchpushp is a great idea to lessen the smell..thankiiies 🙂
yeah try that. it works. 😀 hihih
mai bhi laaaaungggiiiiiiii, yay , *happydance*
dangoooooo Rati :*
hihihih nupuri but use it only on spots. it might be too rich for your oily skin. :))
Rati, awesome review and superb pics!!!! I was waiting for thisreview 🙂 We dont get Kama here 🙁
But I have used Kumkumadi tailam from Kottakkal Ayurvedam. I think ppl who dont have access to Kama can try that. I have had a very good experience with it. I am combination-oily skinned n I would suggest that girls who have oliy skin can leave it on for an hour n then wash off thoroughly with besan+rose water. NEVER leave on overnight. It has never ever broken me out that way, plus the benefits are there too. 🙂
but you get kumkumadi no.. that’s fine and thank you so much for the tip. i am sure it’d help a lot of oily skin girls. 🙂
awesome.. seems a must have for me.. 🙂 Am sure aadya’s daddy won’t mind, as he is already tolerating my lemon, honey & vit e chip-chip concoctions he he he 😀 hope so it will be tolerable for both of us.. 🙂
lollll!!! give it a try. we women would do anything for our beauty. 😛
absolutely.. 🙂
I literally have everything in my parents house! Kumkumadi thailam, Kasthuri manjal, rakhthachandan….why? because ours is a Mallu household and we tend to keep all these things at hand. But I never tried any of these, since I thought they were too yucky and messy!
I ll tell mom to courier everything to me asap 😀 :happydance !!
hahha!! I know totally happens. we take everything our parents say for granted and when someone else tells us the same thing, we suddenly want to give try the same things. 😛
lol! Story of my life this one! 🙂
i have never tried anything like this but after reading your review i want it desperately. 😛 wish kama products were available here. i would have got this for my mom too.. she has dry skin.. i on the other hand have oily skin 🙁
Thankkkkk youuuuu Rati Di for the review :-)))
yeah it should work great for your mom’s skin.
hope it works for you neha. 🙂
Wow seems to be a great product minus the strong smell. 🙂
i have dry skin and some freckles from my teenage days…so want to try this…but we don’t get Kama products here!! 🙁
yeah preethi. :))
sanhita, try the regular kumkumadi. jomol has given the link to the website in her post. 🙂
Sounds pretty good Rati… 😀 I’d like to try it on some marks on my tummy though.. 😛
Wow looks promising. I have oily skin…..but I dry up in winter, I think I shall try this. You are right, anything for beauty.
hi caliii welcome backkk. :)) hoe is the baby boy. so good to see you back. :-* and for tummy you can even try forest essentials mother tummy stretch mark oil. :))
hope you like it varsha 🙂
he he..he is doing good Rati…. 😀 Even now I am reading IMBB posts while keeping him on my lap.. 😛 I’ll get this forest essentials oil now… 😀 😀 I do read IMBB daily..and also your photography blog, and Fashion one..Now I need to start following your fitness blog too in order to get back in shape…though I didn’t put much weight and now almost back to my previous shape!! 😀 😀 😀 😀 I so much miss coming here..but can’t sit on laptop much now…. 🙁
And you are just getting better with every post Rati…mwaaaaaahhh
Lovely pics! 😀 Now I know why your face in the recent pictures have been so “glow-y”. (I’d thought that it was the natural winter blush.) I have been meaning to get this kumkumadi thingie for such a long time but keep forgetting to buy it. My left cheek keeps breaking out and it has a few scars now which look even worse because my right cheek is totally flawless and rather nice, if I say so myself. 😛 I’m definitely going to look for this to lessen my appearance to half an Om Puri.
lolll!!! try it only on scars. i feel the overall might be way too much for acne prone skin. 🙂 thanks :))
This sounds good..
sounds good..! 😀
can you please tell me where do we get kama products in Delhi? 😐
thanks bhumika. 🙂
ruchika, they have a store on khan market. also their products are avil at religere medical stores.
Hi,
Can you please tell me where to buy these in Bangalore? Do they sell it online on any ecomm portal?
no idea.. :((

I’m using from two weeks but no difference is seen waste of money time n energy
Hi rati…’m a big fan of u…thanks for the post.
I started using kottakkal kumkumadi tailum,I haven’t noticed any difference yet.
I’m confused between kama and kottakkal.which works better ?
