Kokum (Garcinia Indica) also known as Wild Mangosteen is a fruit-bearing tree indigenous to the Western Ghats and the Andaman Islands in India. The dried rinds of the purple-colored ripened Kokum fruits are used as a spice and as an Ayurvedic herb for treating dry, cracked, and flaky skin due to its deeply nourishing and intensely moisturizing properties which promote skin regeneration. The Kokum fruit is highly nutritious and contains garcinol, anthocyanins, fatty acids, acetic acid, hydroxycitric acid, malic acid, Vitamin A, C, E, and B3, zinc, potassium, iron, calcium, phosphorus, and manganese that provide antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, rejuvenating and hydrating properties making it an ideal cosmetic ingredient.
