Amman Thalampoo Kum Kum

Amman thalampoo kumkum, a sacred vermillion powder, is believed to be auspicious and is widely used in Hindu rituals for its spiritual and cleansing properties. It’s traditionally made using natural ingredients, including turmeric, lime, and the fragrance of screw pine (thalampoo). Applying it, especially on the forehead, is seen as a way to invite positive energy and blessings.
