Kansa Wand Is One Of Mira Kapoor's Favourite Beauty Tool, Read Benefits Of Using It

Do you know, Kansa wand is being used by Ayurvedic practitioners for over 5000 years now? The Kansa wand is made using teak wood and a Kansa metal which is a mix of copper and tin. As per Ayurveda, this metal is believed to be more healing than gold or silver.

Also known as bell metal, kansa was traditionally only used to make glasses and plates. That was because it was believed to have properties to reduce the acidity present in food. However, later, over time, Ayurvedic practitioners realised its benefits for the skin.

Recently, Mira Kapoor took to her YouTube channel and shared a list of her favourite facial tools. Among her list was a kansa wand. In her video post, she shared that she uses the kansa wand on the soles of her feet to balance the excess Pitta. It also helps her promote restful sleep.
