1. Which skin type is this oil best suited for?
Balaayah Black Gram Body Booster is perfect for dry, aging, mature, undernourished skin. The ingredients with which these oils are made are traditionally known in Ayurveda for being highly effective on mature skin. Also, these oils have unparalleled moisturizing abilities too, so basically anyone of any gender or age can use it to moisturize their body and enjoy its luxurious feel!
2. Can I use this oil if I have sensitive skin?
Balaayah Black Gram Body Booster is made with natural and Ayurvedic ingredients. We’ve received many positive reviews from customers with sensitive skin. However, we always recommend doing a patch test before use. We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee, so if you decide to try it and your skin doesn’t like it, we’ll simply refund you!
3. How soon will I see results?
You will see positive changes, more softness or moisturization, after the very first use.
Results may vary from person to person, and it will depend on your skin type, age, the climate you live in etc. – but many of our customers see more beneficial results as soon as after 2 weeks of consistent use. For extremely dry and crepey skin, keep in mind that Ayurvedic products are completely natural and may take longer to show results, but will be more beneficial for your skin in the long run.
4. Do these oils stain?
Balaayah does not color-stain, and when massaged into the skin properly (till it’s absorbed, which essentially takes 4-5 minutes), it does not leave oil stains on clothing or linen.
6. Do I need to shower after using this body oil?
There are a couple of different ways the oil can be used. When we talk about washing it off we are talking about the Ayurvedic practice of Abhyanga (self massage) where you would massage the oil into your skin, allow it to sit for 15-30 min while you practice pranayama, meditation, or just go about other things you need to accomplish (ideally what you do should be relaxing). Then you rinse off any excess oil (no, or very little soap is needed as oils have cleansing properties themselves) and you should find you don’t have a need for moisturizer. Alternatively, you can apply the body oil after your shower much like you would a moisturizer or lotion. Because we are an Ayurvedic company, we do present the option of Abhyanga.
7. Does Balaayah contain fragrance?
Balaayah doesn’t contain any added fragrance. In fact, no iYURA product contains any added artificial fragrances. Balaayah contains the essential oils of Frankincense and Vanilla.
8. Is Balaayah gluten free?
The ingredients used in Balaayah do not contain any gluten, however gluten free tests haven’t been conducted on the final product.
9. Is Balaayah tested on animals?
No, it is not. In fact, iYURA products are never tested on animals.
10. Can I use it if I have allergy-prone skin?
This oil is natural and Ayurvedic. But sometimes even natural ingredients can cause allergic reactions, which is why we always recommend doing a patch test before use, or simply checking the ingredients list.
