Direct application of the Sushruta Eladi-gana. The cleanest classical “luxury” face powder — combines complete Eladi-gana herb panel with hero brightening agents (Chandana + Yashtimadhu + Kumkuma).

Excluded from the original Sushruta Eladi list: Sthauneyaka (Himalayan yew) — toxic taxanes. Shukti (oyster shell) — optional, not included here for simplicity.

How to apply Make paste fresh each use: 1 Tbsp powder + rose water + a few drops of milk. Apply 15 min. Lift off. · 2-3× per week.
Vaidya review required This formulation requires verification by a qualified vaidya before clinical or commercial use — for botanical-identity confirmation, dose calibration, and patient-population safety.
