According to Ayurveda, Black Sesame oil is tridoshic & considered the most penetrating of all oils. Traditionally revered for its nourishing and healing properties and potent antioxidant & anti-inflammatory benefits. Traditionally used for daily self-massage (abhyanga). Add a few drops of essential oil to create a beautiful fragrance. We recommend trying Turmeric or Yogi Oil. Apply 30 min before a morning shower. Do not remove the oil with soap. This oil is unfiltered to maintain maximum potency.
