It has been used as a culinary thickener and a traditional personal care ingredient for centuries,valued in both applications for its exceptional fineness, its neutral character, and its ability to absorb moisture and oil without caking or clumping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn our body powder, dry shampoo, and shower steamer formulas arrowroot powder serves as a silky, skin-comfortable base that provides oil absorption, slip, and a dry, powdery finish without the respiratory concerns associated with talc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArrowroot's fine particle size gives it an exceptionally silky skin feel that is softer and more refined than most other starches. Its absorbent properties allow it to draw excess oil and moisture from the skin and hair surface,the mechanism behind its effectiveness in dry shampoo and body powder formulas.
