GUWAHATI, Jan 17: Himalaya Wellness Company recently announced the launch of Himalaya Baby Massage Oil with the goodness of mustard. The oil is specially formulated with carefully selected herbs and ingredients that help nourish the baby’s skin with a non-sticky formula.
Commenting on the launch, Chakravarthi NV, business head, Baby Care, Himalaya Wellness Company, said, “The Himalaya Indian Heritage series of Baby Massage Oil is inspired by age-old traditional Ayurvedic practices that emphasise the importance of body massage (Abhyanga) in your baby’s daily regimen. Moreover, millennial parents are increasingly becoming conscious and aware of the ingredients and the products they use on their babies. They look for chemically safe products along with giving the right nourishment to their babies. Hence, we believe our new Baby Massage Oil – Mustard will resonate with the parents of today. With the launch of this new oil, we want to provide an all-in-one solution to parents with a tidy residue-free option for their babies.”
“Mustard with pure mustard seeds has antibacterial and antifungal properties that protect and relieve the skin from common skin infections and allergies too. Traditionally, mustard oil is also known to be beneficial in relieving itching and keeping skin disorders at bay. Regular massages with pure mustard oil can enhance skin strength in newborns.
Furthermore, while olive oil and aloe vera help nourish, soften, and moisturize skin, vetiver is known for its cooling and soothing properties. In addition, herbs like winter cherry and country mallow will improve muscle tone and promote muscle strength,” added Dr Prathibha Babshet, Ayurveda expert R&D, Himalaya Wellness Company.
