Overview

Aritha Powder, also known as reetha or soapnut, is made from the dried, ground fruit shells of the soapnut tree. Mixed with water it gives a soft, low natural lather, which is why it has long been used in traditional Indian hair washing.

It is usually mixed with shikakai and amla powders to make a homemade hair wash.

For external, cosmetic use only. Do not eat or drink.

Highlights

  • Soft, low natural lather
  • Mixes to a thin paste with water
  • Pairs with shikakai and amla
  • Classic Indian hair wash ingredient

How to Use

  • Patch test 48 hours before each use: apply a little to the inside of your elbow and don't use it if irritation appears
  • Mix 1 to 2 tablespoons with warm water to a thin, runny paste
  • Massage into wet hair and scalp, then rinse thoroughly
  • Keep well away from eyes: aritha stings if it gets into them

Storage: Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and out of reach of children and pets. Reseal after opening.

For external use only. Not a food. Keep away from eyes; if contact occurs, rinse well with water. Stop use if irritation occurs.
