,
“Rowanda Herb” powder is commonly used in rinse-off products (powder masks, cleansing products, scrubs). At low levels in emulsions, it can lend a light tightening feel and a natural tint; higher levels may increase color/odor or feel gritty, so moderate use is preferred. It disperses easily in dry blends and its components can be extracted into water or light hydroalcoholic/glycol solvents for use in toners and gels. A patch test is recommended to check for sensitivities.
Benefits:
● Helps reduce surface shine for oily/combination skin
● Gentle feel that supports improved pore appearance
● Clean after-feel in rinse-off formats
● Adds a subtle natural tint in powder formulas
●
Plant-derived
and suitable for minimalist formulations

● Emulsions (cream/lotion): disperse as a fine powder in a little glycerin, propanediol, or Aqua; add in cool-down with mixing and fine-filter if needed.
● Toner/gel (as an extract): prepare a filtered water/glycol or light hydroalcoholic extract and incorporate with an appropriate preservation system.
