Ingredients

Triple Sifted & Grounded Hibiscus Sabdarrifa. No preservative or any chemical added to the powder.

Packaging

This is a fine powder that comes packed inside a cardbox. The cardbox is white & green themed showing a large red Hibiscus flower printed on the front, while the features are printed at the side. Other organic powders such as Amla, Orange peel, Tulsi, Shikakai, Brahmi, reetha, Bhringraj, Aloe Vera, Rose Patels, Fenugreek, Neem, are also shown at the back which are produced at at Indus Valley.

Inside the card box, Hibiscus powder is sealed in a transparent plastic pack. Which needs to be cut a bit to take out the powder. The powder should be transferred to a zip lock pouch or to an air tight container, once the pack is opened other wise the powder may get ruined after coming in contact with air/water.

Fragrance & Texture

As I opened the pack, I inhaled the fresh smell of Hibiscus flower. It kind of proves the authenticity of the product. After going through such vigorous process of cleansing & grounding, the powder still smells so good.

This is a powder, but not as fine as Sandalwood Powder is. It is like coarse sand or wood powder. The texture of the powder is like this because, the whole flower is grounded and not just the flower petals. If you have used Forest Essential ubtans, it has same texture like that. It can be mixed with water, milk, curd, lemon juice, rose water, toner anything you want. It will form a nice paste.

How To Use

The powder can be used in multiple ways for skin & hair.

Night Cleanser

Make a paste of this powder with water, curd, lemon juice, rose water, toner, milk etc. depending upon your skin type. Apply the paste on face in a light layer. Massage gently for few minutes & wash it off with water. I have been using it as my night cleanser from about 2 weeks. I mix 1 spoon of Hibiscus powder with rose water or water. And wash off after massaging it for a while. Pat dry my face and apply few drops of Indus Valley Skin Care Oil while giving a bit of massaging.

As a Scrub + Mask

This powder, due to it’s coarse texture, can be used as a scrub and mask too. Make a paste with anything runny & apply on you face. Leave it there for few minutes & then start massaging it giving your skin a nice scrubbing action. This works as a 2 in 1 scrub + mask.

In a Hair Pack

Hibiscus Powder’s benefits off hair care are well knows. To strengthen your hair roots, prevent immature grey hair & hair loss, use this powder in a hair pack. You can also mix it with curd to condition your hair well. You can mix it with Henna to impart a better color to your hair.

As a Body Ubtan

Make a paste of this powder with water and apply on your body, leave for few minutes & then scrub the dead skin away while massaging it to improve blood circulation. Skip applying soap or body wash. You will notice glowing skin after your shower.

When Hibiscus powder is applied on skin or scalp, it gives a soothing effect to it. It is anti inflammatory hence, takes away redness & scaliness of skin. The Hibiscus powder is also consumed to treat various ailments such as liver malfunctioning & constipation, but, I would not suggest to do so without consulting your doctor.

My Experience

I am very happy that I got to try this natural & organic Hibiscus powder. I already was a fan of Hibiscus powder, but it is very difficult to find a 100% pure product. In the past I have used Hibiscus powder from various brands, and that’s how, I can tell, how authentic & effective this product is.

I use this powder in my skin care & hair care. This has surely simplified my skin care routine, specially when I am travelling. I do not have to carry separate cleansers, scrubbers or masks. One product does it all. Skin is free of impurities, redness or flakiness. I have not experienced any acne breakout on account of this powder, while Forest Essential Ubtan broke me out very badly when I used it few years ago.

Whenever I am in Ultra-DIY-Mode, I mix Hibiscus Powder & Sandalwood power (that too from Indus Valley), with water/rose water to form a paste and use it as a soothing & clarity mask. It makes my skin glowy & calm. It’s one of my Summer special mask (I am working on this post).

I also like the fact that the powder is very affordable despite of being 100% natural & organic. Otherwise, the other organic products are very costly and the organic brands keep on raising it’s products’ prices (am talking about you Forest Essential 🙂 )
