About Kasthuri Manjal Podi
Kasthuri manjal is wild turmeric, and it is a different plant from the turmeric in your kulambu. It is used for skin: brightening, fading dark spots, lifting suntan, calming acne and controlling oil.
It does not leave the bright yellow stain that culinary turmeric does, which is the reason it exists as a separate product at all.
Blended with a long list of traditional roots and flowers — poolankilangu, avvarampoo, kora kilangu, vetti ver and marikolunthu among them — rather than sold as wild turmeric alone.
