Patanjali Herbal Suhag Teeka / Herbal Sindoor Review

Read Previous Article: Dove Essential Nourishment Body Lotion Review

It is a tradition in Hinduism where ladies apply kumkuma/sindoor in the midst of eye brows. But every traditional custom ruled by our ancestors has a scientific significance. Previously, purest kumkuma/sindoor was prepared at every home from fresh turmeric, cow’s ghee and camphor.  Later on the contaminated kumkuma/sindoor got released in the local market in forms of powder, liquid and also stickers causing skin infection.

Ajna chakra (the sixth chakra of our body) also called as “the third eye” resides in the midst of eyebrows which is known to be activated when the pure kumkuma is applied regularly. This chakra deals with senses, intuition, mental stability and wisdom also it governs human brain.

 Price tag: Rs 75 for 3g

Shelf Life: 24 months

Ingredients:

Package: Stick like package which can be twisted outwards and inwards for usage. The stick is golden and red with a transparent cap. On the whole the package is in the form of lipsticks which makes it travel friendly.

Colour/Shade: Appears maroon in the pack but actually is dark pinkish. The shade is heavily pigmented.

Fragrance: Mild scent of herbal ingredients which do not smell when applied.

My Experience with Patanjali Herbal Suhag Teeka / Herbal Sindoor:

I used this for application of bindi in the midst of eye brows. This is indeed a very good alternate for those gum stickers which itches skin. One or two swipes provide the perfect colour and the gliding nature of the stick makes the usage easy. For dark skin tones , you might require more swipes. It does not smudge and cause any mess, even while wiping off it do not spread unevenly.  A single face wash wipes the stain.

The sindoor does not vanish when you perspire too.  But I am not sure about the results in hot climates and for people who sweat heavily. For me in my place (Bangalore) it all went well and sets well for a minimum of 6 hours which is considerably great.

As claimed, it is truly herbal causing no irritation, no skin infections. You can even apply to your kids.

You can make different designs for bindi, but as the stick gets used and its sharpness fades it might be difficult to draw designs for your bindi.
