With regular use, this massage oil reduces uneven skin tone, pigmentation, spots, acne scars and skin rashes and leaves the skin looking gorgeous. Sesame oil in it hydrates and nourishes the skin while vetiver effectively cools and calms it. This oil also has antibacterial properties due to ingredients such as madder and Indian gooseberry, which protect the skin from external aggressors and keep the skin healthy and radiant.
