Ubtan is the traditional body pack and beautification process used for brides and bridegrooms in India. It is one of the sixteen parts of Solah-Shingaar. Ubtan dates back to antiquity and beyond it was originally used for overall health and to speed the healing of illness, but today it is mostly used for brides and bridegrooms to prepare them for their wedding day…and night. Ubtan produces amazing results in creating beautiful, glowing skin and diminishing acne, blemishes, blackheads, and pimples. If it is done on a regular basis, Ubtan will prevent premature aging of the skin. It is a paste made from turmeric, saffron, sandalwood, and yellow mustard seeds. These ingredients are scientifically proven to stimulate circulation and clear up the skin…especially the pores. It has also been know and proven in tests to remove scars and lighten freckles. This is an all around beauty product that is all natural and very healthy for your skin. It may very well be the world's first cosmetic! There are few things in the ritual of marriage in India that are as important as Ubtan, since the bride and bridegroom say ritual prayers during the Ubtan treatment it is not only something to beautify and purify the skin, but also the heart and soul.
