made my face itch - would not recommend!
i agree it is coarse, i  am not too sure if its effective or will give negative effect to skin, i will update on that later when i see the results. but definitely it doesnt stain the skin although it is yellow, so i think its genuine.<br /><br />update 11/2017- i started using it right after i bought it as i felt it would be better compared to normal tumeric. i started using it for  my diy tumeric face mask.  i start having rashes on my face. i didnt believe it at first, so i stopped using it for a few months. and then i tried this again and the rash came back!<br /><br />so, i tried using very small amounts of eating tumeric (normal spice tumeric) and i didnt get any rash. my conclusion is, i may be allergic to kasturi manjal or its not prepared in clean conditions and will give rash. save your money and do not buy!
