Eczema isn’t just “dry skin.” It’s your barrier waving a red flag. And until that barrier feels safe, no cream or steroid will offer lasting relief.

🧴 That’s why Restorative Oil doesn’t just hydrate — it helps rebuild. Think of it like first-aid for broken skin: sealing microcracks, calming immune overreactions, and supporting the skin's repair cycle from the base up.

Activated Oils™ go deeper — because they’re designed to work with inflamed, sensitised skin, not against it. This is what makes the difference between temporary calm… and real healing. ✨

😰 Eating healthy but still flaring? THIS might be why.
These 20 common foods could be triggering your eczema — even if you’ve “cut out dairy” or “switched to clean skincare.”

From pizza to paneer, chips to chocolates — the real culprits often hide in everyday cravings.

🧠 Why it matters: Eczema isn’t just a skin issue. It’s deeply linked to gut health, histamine reactions, and internal inflammation. What you eat shows up on your skin, especially if you’re prone to barrier damage.

💡 Pro tip: Everyone’s trigger list is different. Try eliminating 2–3 items from this list at a time, track your flares, and build your personal food diary.

Comment 🫣 if your favorite food is on this list.
And tell us, what’s that one guilty pleasure you know that triggers flares but can’t give up on? 🍫🍟☕

Dermats say “no” to oils for psoriasis — and honestly, they’re not wrong. Most oils available are poor quality, unstable, and way too harsh for already inflamed skin.

But here’s what often gets missed ⬇️
It isn’t that *all oils* are bad — it’s that most people only encounter the wrong kind, in the wrong form.

👉 When an oil is pure, steam-distilled, blended into the right carrier, and actually tested on sensitive skin, it behaves very differently. Instead of burning or irritating, it can:

* Help the skin barrier rebuild itself
* Lock in much-needed hydration
* Calm down micro-inflammation that fuels plaques
* Complement other psoriasis treatments instead of clashing with them

So if you’ve tried oils before and they made things worse — that was about the **process, not the ingredient itself**. With the right quality and method, oils don’t fight your skin, they work with it.

That’s why we don’t dismiss them. We just use them differently. 🌿✨

Ever looked at someone’s thick, healthy hair with envy? 😔 Or wondered why your hair doesn’t look like theirs, even after trying every product under the sun?

It’s frustrating, right? The truth is, the causes of hair loss go beyond what you put on your hair. It’s often about what’s happening inside your body—things like stress, hormonal imbalances, or even nutrient deficiencies.

Instead of focusing on external fixes, understanding what’s really going on is the first step to getting your hair back on track. The right solutions come from knowing your root cause (pun intended), and that’s where real healing begins. 🌱

Your hair is your body’s reflection, and if it’s struggling, it’s sending you a message. Are you listening?

💬 If you are still wondering why your hair’s not growing like you want it to, it's time to try our Deeply Conditioning Hair Growth Oil now. Find the link in bio!

Ananya’s journey is a testament to the strength it takes to show up for yourself even when the world might not understand. From avoiding social events to finally saying "no more" to hiding her skin, she found healing in places beyond just skincare. 🌱

She tapped into community, built habits from the inside out, and created a safe space for her body and mind. Her story is one of resilience, self-empowerment, and the reminder that healing isn’t about “perfection” but peace.

Psoriasis doesn’t define us, but it sure teaches us some valuable lessons.

Our Story

The journey of Oleum Cottage started from a very personal need. Back in 2014 when Kasturi's daughter (one of her twin babies) was diagnosed with a rare metabolic condition, she wholeheartedly took to trying every means to increase her little ones’ immunity naturally. During this search she came across the benefits of aromatherapy and started practising it.

Her first product was a blend of basil, eucalyptus, clove, sesame, soybean and neem, to work on their coughs and colds. It worked so well that it paved the path for our first formulation - Immunity Boosting Body Lotion!

Further validation in the power of cold pressed oils came from her own dry skin woes melting away. She was alarmed to learn that commercially available skin care, hair care, even baby care were primarily focussed on making the product last long and look good, with a dash of plant ingredient thrown in to make ‘natural’ claims. She felt compelled to change this.

As destiny would have it, she met our co-founder Vidhi at her very first boutique store, and together their passion and eagerness for natural and therapeutic skin care had no bounds. With the love and blessings of their users, they finally paved the way for Oleum Cottage – a small batch apothecary for safe, healthy skincare.
