Arrowroot Powder

Maranta Arundinacea

This Product is Cosmetic Grade

Arrowroot Powder (also known as Maranta Arundinacea Root Powder) is an all-natural silky white powder produced by grinding up the dried rhizomes of the tropical Arrowroot plant.

This nourishing plant-based raw material has a rich history of being used in traditional medicine applications due to the ability to detoxify and heal wounds, and calm skin irritations.

In cosmetics, Arrowroot Powder is featured widely in natural makeup, skincare, and personal hygiene products, including body powders, deodorants, creams and lotions, face masks, beauty butters, and bath products. The topical application of cosmetic moisturizers, including creams and lotions, can help successfully alleviate dry hand symptoms.

Arrowroot Powder easily replaces talc or cornstarch in cosmetic recipes and formulations. It is also quite versatile, and can act as a thickener, opacifier, texture enhancer, binding agent, mattifier, moisture absorber, and colour modifier.
