Indonesian Beauty Secrets: Jamu

There are so many beauty secrets from all over the world. Nah, since I’m an Indonesian and living there, I’d like to share to you about our country’s beauty secrets. Yes, secrets. We have so many! The first one I would love to introduce you is Jamu. Jamu literally means “herbal drinks” in English. Since Indonesia has always been the place where a lot of plants and spices gather, of course beauty is also part of the usage of Jamu.

This herbal medicine is always part of Indonesia. You can find it anywhere in Indonesia whether it’s on the wet markets, along the streets, or even in the most luxurious spa boutiques. The health benefits of consuming it are also varying from beauty to stamina. Both young and old are also parts of the fans of this drink. The taste also varies, from sweet, sour, to bitter (yeah, it’s also considered as medicine).

Jamu is mainly made of natural ingredients, for example plants (roots, leaves, fruit) and animals (bile of goat and alligator). Generally, you can find Jamu sold door to door, with a lady carrying a big basket full of bottles of Jamu and stop by every customer. Others sell it on the street using bicycle or minivan. Jamu is also mass manufactured by large companies and sold in countless drug stores in sachet packaging.

Jamu is often delivered in form of powder, pills, capsules, and drinking liquid. Jamu can be consumed on a daily basis for both prevention and treatment of serious conditions. Main ingredients of Jamu are Turmeric and Ginger; which are the most potent antioxidant and anticancer herbs.

Related to beauty, Jamu provides us with so many choices. Just mention your concern or problem, I bet Jamu has the remedy for it. A number of the most popular ones are Galian Singset (to keep women stay slim and fit) and Sari Rapet (to take care of women genital organ healthy). Other forms of Jamu are like powder (bedak dingin) to take care of acne and scrub (lulur).
