About Ayucare Til Tail (Sesame Oil)
Sesame oil sits at the very centre of Ayurvedic external care. Known as Tila Taila in Sanskrit and til ka tel across India, it has been the everyday oil of Indian homes for generations — for the body, the hair, and as the base of countless classical formulations.
This is a single-ingredient product: pure Til Tail (Sesamum indicum), nothing else. It is warming (Ushna) and unctuous (Snigdha) by nature — the reason classical texts pair it with Vata, the dry, light, cold quality that sesame oil so neatly settles. Retailed by Riddhish Herbals and manufactured by Ayucare Pharmaceutical Pvt. Ltd.
Traditional Ayurvedic Importance
Ayurveda is unusually direct about sesame oil. The Ashtanga Hridaya (Sutrasthana, Annapana Vidhi) states plainly: "tatra taileshu madhye mukhyam tilodbhavam" — among all oils, the one born of sesame is foremost.
The Charaka Samhita (Sutrasthana, Matrashitiya) describes Abhyanga — daily application of oil — as a core practice of Dinacharya, valued for supporting the skin, easing the effects of ageing, and grounding Vata. Sesame oil is the oil traditionally named for this purpose, and remains the classical base for medicated Taila preparations. This product carries the pack reference Aaryabhishak (A.B.), a respected classical compendium of Ayurvedic practice.

Research & Scientific References
A 2017 triple-blind randomised controlled trial published in Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice observed that light-pressure massage using topical sesame oil was associated with reductions in self-reported pain severity in adults with limb injuries, compared with a placebo oil, under study conditions. (Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice, 2017; Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials.)
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel, after reviewing animal and human data, assessed Sesamum indicum (sesame) seed oil as safe for cosmetic use as a skin-conditioning agent, reporting it to be neither an irritant nor a sensitiser at cosmetic-use levels. (Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel, 2011; PMID 21772026.)

How to Use & Anupan
For Abhyanga (body massage)
Warm a small quantity by standing the bottle in warm water. Apply over the body — long strokes along the limbs, gentle circular motions over the joints. Rest 15–20 minutes, then bathe with warm water. Daily or 3–4 times a week suits most routines.
For hair and scalp
Massage a small amount into the scalp and hair. Leave 30–60 minutes, or overnight, before washing.
