Patanjali Tejus Tailum Body and Hair Oil {Product Review}

Swathy · February 21, 2011 · 37 Comments

So, here is another of the product from the collection of Baba Ramdev. This is not much of a review coz I never got to using it as such. Well, I’ll explain that in a minute.This oil is supposedly a body massage oil but also good for hair. It also is said to improve the muscle strength. The color of the oil is dark brown though my bottle is empty.
Price: 60 INR for 100ml
Ingredients
A very impressive list of ingredients. Let me just recount them in case the pic is not clear. Sorry for the flash but this was the most clear pic I got. So, every 10 ml of the oil contains almond oil, olive oil, walnut oil, sunflower oil, sesame oil, soyabean oil, peanut (groundnut) oil, mustard oil and castor oil in some proportions. So, reading the list of ingredients, anyone would be tempted to buy the oil.
 
My Experience
Ok, so as I said that I never got to using the oil as such. What I really meant by that statement was that I couldn’t bring myself to use it afetr at max 2-3 times in the starting. Why?? The first time I opened the bottle, my head started to ache. The smell of this oil is too strong to bear. And, it is really very very strong. I have never been fan of strong perfumes and deos but this one takes the cake and the icing. I really fail to understand that why do they need to put a perfume when you are selling natural products. Had that smell not been there, I probably would have fallen in love with the oil. But, now I would never find out 🙁
It surely is a great product owing to the fabulous ingredients. I did manage to apply the oil as a body lotion one or two nights in the start and it was moisturizing enough. My skin didn’t feel dry or parched. Very little oil is enough. No difference in the smoothness of the skin by morning though but then I didn’t really notice that. But, then one or two days might not be enough. I applied it once on my hair but didn’t notice any difference. It would be unfair of me to say that the product is worthless coz I really didn’t use it enough to judge. So, the only point I would put is that this is not for people who can’t handle smells.
I really wish Ayurvedic products do not go into the cosmetics gimmick of great fragrances and elaborate packaging which costs more than the worth of the product. I wish I could send them a feedback about this. So, why is my bottle empty. I didn’t know how to use this oil so I mixed the oil with baby oil and kumkumadi oil and used it. The fragrance did soften down after mixing and my body did glow but then I am not sure about the reason coz it might have been this oil or the kumkumadi oil or even my apricot soap which I have been using and it is excellent. So, I am kinda confused about that. I’ll surely use this oil alone if I buy it next time but that is unlikely so anyone who has used the oil is using, please do comment and share your reviews 🙂 I would love to hear your experience about the product.
My Recommendation
Not to be too biased but this oil is definitely not for people who can’t take strong smells. This might be a good product but you certainly do not want to harm your smell sense. Those who can take really strong perfumes and deos can give this a try.

      yes, it is a body oil as well but I can’t account for the roughness on skin. it can also depend on the face wash you used!! also, yes, it might increase the hair growth as it an oil after all which is meant for hair as well. yes, it can be used as a moisturizer after bath 🙂

    Yes,
    I am living in Hyderabad since past 9 months for work.
    And it’s water didn’t suit me at all.
    I just don’t know what to do. I have tried all kinds of remedies. I got to know about the natural oils South Indian people use and i also made one with Hibiscus and amla with parachute coconut oil base but then i did not get hibiscus in large number anywhere, hence i could not make it again 🙁 I am searching for hibiscus, can you suggest where to find minimum 20 at once? Any park or shop? I would like fresh ones not dried.

      hi Deepika. yeah, the water here is really hard. and, yes, it is really funny that hibiscus flowers are not readily available here. even I have been searching for one. try getting to plant one if you can. also, you could check out this post for the hard water issue.
      https://swathyandsky.com/2012/10/hard-water-affecting-hair-hair-care.html
      also, it might be a good idea to do vinegar rinse every time you shampoo so that the hard water deposits get washed off from hair and scalp. also, it is absolutely fine to use normal oils as well. I would suggest using neelibrigandi hair oil which is available in arya vaidya sala ayurvedic stores. they are all over hyderabad so you can check out according to your locality. if you live in kondapur, chandanagar is the nearest store. it is amazing for hair or you could also get the kama brigandi oil which is amazing!!

        Hi Swati,

        Thanks for your response. I found the plant near Forum mall, there are various people roadside. Waiting for them to magically grow at once.
        Yes, I stay in Kondapur, will try to search for this oil.

        Hi Swati, I researched a lot about neelibrigandi hair oil and found two versions,
        one is neelibrigandi hair oil and other one with coconut oil base named as neelibrigandi Kera Tail.
        Which one is better as it is winters?
        Also, i read about women worrying about the antimony present in this oil which has considerable side effects. Please advise?

          December 22, 2016 at 4:39 PM

          ohk. i did not know about the coconut oil version. i have used only the regular neelibrigandi which is what I would suggest. it will suit for winters also and it is a summer oil as well unless you like using the cooling oils. also, coconut oil does not suit all hair types.
          I have no idea about antimony but go for the ayurvedic ones and you will not have that issue at all. try the arya vaidya sala or kama only. both of them are absolutely natural and no additives at all. you can feel it in the texture of the oil 🙂
