    Arrowroot Powder is a soft, white powder derived from the starchy root of the Arrowroot plant. With a texture resembling cornstarch, this cosmetic-grade powder is light and silky to the touch, making it an excellent substitute for talc.

    The term 'Arrowroot' is believed to originate from its historical use as an antidote for arrow wounds by the native Arawak Indians of South America and the Caribbean. This rich history extends to its incorporation in traditional herbal remedies in countries such as India, where it has been valued for many years.

    Prominently featured in natural and plant-based cosmetics, Arrowroot Powder can be incorporated into body powders, dry shampoos, face powders, and other powder makeup. It creates a smooth, flawless finish upon application and helps absorb sweat and moisture. Its texture-enhancing properties also make it an ideal addition to lotions, creams, natural deodorants, lip balms, and body butters, where it adds thickness and a pleasant feel.

    Discover the natural versatility of Arrowroot Powder and enhance your cosmetic formulations with this ultra-effective ingredient.

    HOW TO USE

    Rosy Reset Face Mask: Mix equal parts French Clay – Pink and water to create a smooth, creamy paste. For added nourishment, substitute water with Floral Water, Aloe Vera Juice, or Rose Hydrosol. Apply evenly to clean skin, avoiding the eye area. Leave on for 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water. Skin feels soft, balanced, and refreshed.



    Soothe & Smooth Body Wrap: Blend French Clay – Pink with warm water or hydrosol until it forms a creamy consistency. Apply to the body and allow to rest for 15–20 minutes before rinsing. This gentle wrap helps refresh and smooth the skin’s surface for a polished, spa-quality feel.



    Custom Clay Creations: Use French Clay – Pink as a mineral-rich base for clay masks, scrubs, soaps, and other skin care products. Combine with essential oils, botanical extracts, or gentle exfoliants to create bespoke pink clay formulations that cleanse, soften, and refine.



    Formulation Notes: French Clay – Pink at 5–30% in skin care products, or 1 tablespoon (15mL) per lb (500 g) of soap. Incorporate into clay masks, scrubs, cleansers, or soaps for natural mineral enhancement and a smooth, refined texture.

    Any questions?

    Are your refill products as effective as conventional cleaners?

    Yes, effectiveness is one of the main criteria we use when selecting refill brands.

    We carefully curate products that clean just as well as conventional options, but with better ingredients and less wasteful packaging. If something doesn’t perform well in real homes, it doesn’t make it onto our shelves.

    Is switching to refills complicated?

    Not at all! It’s actually simpler than most people expect.

    You start with a reusable bottle, then refill it whenever it’s empty instead of buying a new plastic container each time.

    Many customers quickly turn it into a routine — refilling their cleaning and personal care products just like they would restock groceries. Plus, many customers find their products last longer due to concentrated formulas.

    What ingredients do your products use — and what do they avoid?

    We curate brands that prioritize naturally derived, biodegradable ingredients that are safe for everyday home use. Our role is to do the research and testing for you, so you can shop with confidence.

    Every product we carry is reviewed against our ingredient and sustainability standards. We look closely at things like formulation transparency, environmental impact, and packaging. The products we carry avoid ingredients such as:

    • SLS / SLES
    • Synthetic fragrance
    • Parabens
    • Harsh chemical fillers

    What if I try a product and it doesn’t work for me?

    Because we curate many different brands, we can usually recommend an alternative that better fits your needs.

    Our team is always happy to help you find the right product for your home, whether that’s a different scent, formula, or brand.

    We want you to feel confident that what you’re bringing home will actually work for you.

    What is your return policy?

    We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. If something isn't right, we're happy to offer an exchange or store credit within 14 days of purchase for items that are unused, unopened, and in their original packaging. We do not offer refunds.

    To start a return, mail your item to 3010 Dundas Street West, Toronto ON M6P 1Z3. Return shipping costs are the customer's responsibility and are non-refundable. For items over $75, we recommend using a trackable shipping service.
