Lemongrass Powder

Lemongrass powder is a versatile, natural beauty ingredient prized for its antibacterial, antifungal, and astringent properties, making it ideal for oily and acne-prone skin. It deep cleanses, tightens pores, reduces oiliness, and nourishes the scalp to promote hair health. 

Key Beauty Uses of Lemongrass Powder

• Acne Treatment and Skin Balancing: Due to its antimicrobial properties, it helps combat acne-causing bacteria and reduces skin inflammation. It acts as a natural astringent, helping to minimize the appearance of pores and reduce excess oil without over-drying.
• Deep Cleansing Face Masks: Mix lemongrass powder with bentonite clay, honey, or yogurt to create a purifying face mask that removes dirt, impurities, and dead skin cells for a glowing complexion.
• Hair and Scalp Care: When added to hair masks or shampoos, it helps purify the scalp, reduces dandruff, and strengthens hair follicles.
• Natural Exfoliant in Soaps: It can be incorporated into handmade soap recipes to act as a gentle exfoliator and provide a refreshing scent.
• Body Deodorizer: Due to its strong citrusy scent and antibacterial nature, it can be used in homemade body powders to neutralize odor.
