Looking for a natural remedy to soothe skin infections, promote healthy hair, or fight fungal issues? Karanj Oil—also known as Pongamia Oil—has been used in Ayurveda for centuries due to its powerful antifungal, antibacterial, and skin-healing properties. Extracted from the seeds of the Pongamia pinnata tree, Vedcare Karanj Oil is your go-to multipurpose oil for natural wellness.
In this blog, we’ll explore the top benefits of Karanj Oil for skin, hair, and common infections—and show you how to use it effectively at home.
What is Vedcare Karanj Oil?
Vedcare Karanj Oil is 100% cold-pressed, pure oil made from high-quality Pongamia seeds. It’s a natural powerhouse that supports skin health, scalp care, and microbial defense. Known for its bitter aroma and healing capabilities, this oil is often compared to neem oil—but with gentler properties for daily application.
Top Benefits of Karanj Oil
1. Fights Skin Infections & Irritations
Karanj Oil has strong antibacterial and antifungal properties that help treat skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, ringworm, and itching.
Use: Apply a few drops to affected areas after diluting with coconut or sesame oil. Leave it on overnight or for a few hours.
- Promotes Scalp Health & Hair Strength
It nourishes the scalp, removes dandruff, and strengthens hair roots. It’s ideal for treating scalp infections like folliculitis or lice naturally.
Use: Mix with castor or almond oil and massage gently into the scalp. Leave it for 30–60 minutes before shampooing.
- Effective Against Fungal Infections
From athlete’s foot to nail fungus, Karanj Oil is highly effective in reducing itchiness, inflammation, and spreading of fungal infections.
Use: Apply directly on clean, dry skin using a cotton ball—1–2 times daily.
- Heals Minor Cuts, Burns & Rashes
Thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, it promotes wound healing, reduces redness, and soothes minor skin trauma.
Use: Dab gently on affected areas after washing with clean water. Avoid contact with open, deep wounds.
- Detoxifies Skin Naturally
Regular use of Karanj oil in face masks or body oils helps detoxify the skin, reduce blemishes, and balance sebum production.
Use: Add a few drops to your DIY clay mask or face oil blend.
