Piramal releases two new Lacto Calamine products

India-based Piramal’s Consumer Products division has introduced a new face wash and scrub under its Lacto Calamine brand.

Designed for customers prone to oily skin, the new Lacto Calamine Oil Balance Face Wash and Face Scrub contains natural minerals and clay-based kaolin.

The products are said to eliminate excess oil, retain essential oils, protect the skin from bacterial infections, and help provide smooth and blemish-free skin.

Piramal's consumer products division chief operating officer Kedar Rajadnye said: “Based on the insight that consumers follow a set regimen to take care of their skin, we have created a unique product line that is calamine and clay-based, to address the entire spectrum of daily skincare for all oily skin needs of consumers.

“Currently, Lacto Calamine reaches more than 3.5 lakh households. As part of our strategy, we will be looking at various products in the clay-based to help consumers solve other oily skin problems.”

Lacto Calamine contains natural ingredients such as kaolin clay, glycerine, zinc oxide, lemon extracts, aloe vera, cinnamon extracts, and neem.

The new face wash and scrub are currently available in 50ml bottles at select chemist outlets in the country.

The consumer products division’s portfolio includes a variety of brands such as Saridon, Lacto Calamine, I range, Quik Kool, Polycrol, Jungle Magic, Tetmosol, Caladryl, Littles, Naturolax and Lacto Bacil plus.
