Release form
What could be better than a medicine given by nature itself? This is exactly the kind of therapeutic and preventive remedy that mumijo is – a resinous mass that is collected high in the mountains – inside caves, rocky cracks and dips. The collected mass is carefully cleaned, and only then packaged for shipment to pharmaceutical companies and medical institutions.
Stretch Mark Cream with Shilajit
Cream with mumiyo is an excellent remedy for reducing the appearance and severity of stretch marks in the mammary glands, on the stomach, forearms and thighs.
You can prepare the following cream with mumiyo:
- dilute 5 g of mumiyo in 1 teaspoon of warm water;
- add 90 g of regular baby cream;
- Use to rub into areas where stretch marks appear, twice a day, without rinsing.
The resulting cream should be stored in a cool place, perhaps in the refrigerator. Such a simple remedy will help reduce the appearance of stretch marks, their depth and color.
The effect will be much better if you additionally take mumijo internally: every morning, on an empty stomach, 2 tablets. It is advisable to wash down mumijo with milk or carrot juice.
Anti-cellulite cream with mumiyo
Cellulite is a current women's problem, which many people try to fight, but unfortunately, not always successfully. Shilajit cream is one of the few truly effective remedies that permanently eliminate the problem of unsightly bumps on the skin.
Thanks to the cream with mumiyo, it is possible to stimulate local metabolic processes, which helps to remove toxins, restore skin elasticity and improve trophism in the subcutaneous fat tissue.
To prepare a cream with mumiyo and essential oils, we will need:
- mumiyo tablets – 5 pcs.;
- cinnamon oil – 10 drops;
- orange oil – 10 drops;
- pine oil – 10 drops;
- 2 tsp warm water;
- Nourishing body cream – 100 g.
Transfer any nourishing body cream into a container. Dissolve the mumijo tablets in water and mix into the cream. Add essential oils and mix again.
This cream with mumiyo should be stored in the refrigerator and used only 2-3 times a week. After several weeks of using the cream, the first positive result will be noticeable.
Cream with mumiyo for face
To prepare a Shilajit-based face cream, simply dilute 1 Shilajit tablet in half a teaspoon of warm water. In a separate clean container, mix the resulting liquid with one and a half teaspoons of your favorite or any face cream.
Apply the face cream with mumijo like a regular cream. It is recommended to apply the product at night, as mumijo can give the face a slightly unusual shade. In the morning, wash off the cream and apply another one, under makeup.
Regular use of the cream will smooth out fine wrinkles, prevent acne and pimples, and even out skin tone.
It is advisable not to prepare a lot of such cream for future use: it is better to prepare it as needed. This way, the facial product will always be fresh, which will immediately affect its effectiveness.
Cream balm sea buckthorn with mumiyo forte
There are a number of industrial products that contain mumiyo. One of these products is the healing cream balm "Sea Buckthorn with Mumiyo Forte", from the "7 Notes of Health" series, from the Russian manufacturer OOO Dina Plus. According to the description, the cream has significant regenerating properties due to such components as sea buckthorn oil, mumiyo, calendula, and plantain. Interestingly, the composition also contains hyaluronic acid - a well-known substance that promotes high-quality hydration and restoration of the skin.
Cream balm with mumiyo and sea buckthorn helps in such cases:
- in case of injuries and damage to the skin;
- for skin irritation, insect bites;
- for dry, flaccid, saggy skin.
The cream should not be used if there is a risk of allergy to its ingredients.
Smart cream mumiyo with comfrey
Smart - the so-called self-diagnosing cream mumiyo with comfrey - is positioned by the manufacturer as a remedy capable of independently determining the cause of joint pain and eliminating it. How this happens, of course, is difficult to understand. However, some properties of this drug still deserve attention:
- the cream serves as a prophylactic agent, preventing age-related changes inside the joints;
- eliminates body aches "due to weather";
- prevents inflammation and exacerbation of chronic joint diseases;
- helps with osteochondrosis and rheumatism.
The composition of the drug is represented by mumiyo, comfrey, glucosamine, collagen, Indian onion, red capsicum, juniper, boswellia, as well as a number of B vitamins.
The cream has many other advantages. It is well absorbed, has virtually no side effects, and interacts well with other external preparations.
The drug should be used on the affected joints up to 3 times a day for 30-45 days. The course of treatment can be repeated 4-6 times a year.
Smart cream mumiyo with chondroitin
Smart cream with mumiyo and chondroitin acts similarly to the previous drug described above. The manufacturer of the cream is the Russian company OOO Korolev Pharm.
The product is intended for application to the joint area and has a local anti-inflammatory, anti-edematous, restorative, warming and analgesic effect. It can be used as a preventative measure against inflammatory and destructive joint lesions.
The composition of the “smart cream” includes juniper oil, mumiyo, chondroitin, biostimulants, B vitamins, glucosamine, meadowsweet, Adam’s root, Indian onion, red pepper, wax, petroleum jelly and vegetable oil.
Apply the cream to the affected joints up to 3 times a day, massaging until the cream is completely absorbed (2-3 minutes).
Massage cream with mumiyo
At home, you can prepare a massage cream with mumiyo, which will help in the fight against cellulite and even promote weight loss.
For massage cream you will need the following components:
- grounds from prepared ground coffee (about 100 g);
- 2 g mumiyo;
- 80-100 g baby cream;
- a little fat sour cream (80-100 g).
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until the mumijo dissolves. Use to massage problem areas (hips, buttocks, forearms, stomach). It is convenient to do this massage in the shower: after the procedure, keep the mass on the skin for about 10 minutes, and wash off with warm water.
For a slimming effect, apply the resulting cream mass to areas of the body and wrap with cellophane or film, leave for 20-30 minutes, then wash off.
Procedures with massage cream with mumijo are carried out no more than 2 times a week. Additionally, you can use cream for stretch marks and cellulite with mumijo.
Pharmacodynamics
The Altai natural preparation mumiyo is a strong healing agent with a pronounced anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effect. When applied to the skin, the cream with mumiyo stimulates local immunity, heals and rejuvenates tissues.
Mumiyo is a truly unique substance that has no analogues. It renews the superficial skin layers, strengthens blood vessels, eliminates the adverse effects of injuries, ultraviolet radiation, and exposure to chemical reagents.
Cream with mumiyo makes the skin more elastic, firm, hydrated and supple, helps fight stretch marks and signs of cellulite (and prevent their appearance).
External preparations based on mumiyo can be applied to almost any part of the body, and even to the face, where the skin is thinner and more sensitive.
The mechanism of action of the cream with mumijo is due to its stimulating effect on local metabolic processes. Mumijo activates the reaction of oxidative phosphorylation, normalizes tissue nutrition and various types of metabolism. In addition, this substance serves as a high-quality antioxidant, improving skin protection and blocking peroxidation of fats.
Creams with mumiyo have a membrane-stimulating effect and antihypoxic activity, but in order for all the positive properties of the drug to manifest themselves to the proper extent, it must be used regularly.
Pharmacokinetics
The cream with mumiyo is quickly and completely absorbed into the skin at the site of application and distributed into the underlying tissues.
The penetration of the external preparation into the systemic bloodstream is insignificant and is not considered from a kinetic point of view, since it has no clinical significance. It is known that the metabolites of the product are excreted from the body mainly with urine.

Dosing and administration
In standard situations, the cream with mumijo is applied to problem areas once a day. It is optimal to use the remedy immediately after waking up, for 15-20 minutes, then rinse with warm water (you can use a shower for this purpose). If it is impossible to use the drug in the morning, it is applied before bedtime.
To improve the condition of hair and nails, rub the cream in, leave for 15-20 minutes, then rinse in warm water.
To combat cellulite, apply the cream to problem areas and massage, capturing the deep layers of the skin. Then leave the cream for a few minutes to absorb, then rinse with warm water using a shower.
The duration of treatment with cream with mumiyo is usually 2 weeks, and the cream is applied daily or every other day.
For the treatment and prevention of cellulite, 2-3 applications per week for a month are sufficient.
Use mummy creams during pregnancy
There is no direct contraindication to the use of cream with mumijo by pregnant and lactating women. However, it should be noted that adequate studies on this issue have not been conducted. Therefore, you should avoid using creams with mumijo on large areas of the skin. In addition, it is not recommended to use such products for a long time, since there is no guarantee of complete safety of such drugs during pregnancy.
Contraindications
The main contraindication to the use of cream with mumiyo is considered to be increased sensitivity of the body to this resinous substance, or to other components of the cream. In addition, it is highly undesirable to use mumiyo to treat small children.
As for other contraindications, it can be said that everything depends on the composition of a specific product. Some external preparations are completely devoid of any restrictions on use.
It is necessary to use cream with mumiyo with great caution if:
- there are infectious (viral, fungal, microbial) skin lesions;
- the person suffers from autoimmune diseases;
- There are tumors on the skin, including melanomas.
In the above cases, a doctor's consultation is mandatory. Independent use of biologically active drugs can aggravate the disease.

Overdose
When applied externally, an overdose of cream with mumiyo is considered unlikely: such cases have not been encountered to date.
With prolonged and uncontrolled use, side effects may occur.
If the cream is accidentally swallowed, dyspeptic disorders such as nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain may occur.
Interactions with other drugs
