Methi (Indian: fenugreek seed) powder is incorporated into skincare due to its ability to soothe itchiness and irritations. It is often used for irritated and inflamed skin, dandruff and premature hair loss. Fenugreek seed powder activates cell renewal and healthy hair growth. It is also beneficial when it comes to wounds, atopic dermatitis, fine wrinkles and age spots. When used as a face mask, it absorbs excess sebum leaving the skin flawless and radiant.

Application:

• Hair mask: Mix with warm water until a paste is formed and apply to the hair, massaging the scalp and distributing into the ends. Leave on for up to 15 minutes, rinse and cleanse with a natural shampoo or Aritha powder. Methi powder can be blended with other powders.
• Skincare: Mix with water or floral water and apply an even layer to the skin (face and/or body). Blend in a few drops of essential oil or other high-quality oils. Leave on for 10 minutes. The paste will dry if no oil is added to the mixture. Rinse thoroughly with water. It is recommended to follow with a toner or floral water as well as a moisturiser or plant oil.
