WALNUT SHELL POWDER
INCI: Juglans regia shell powder
What is Juglans regia shell powder?
Walnut shell powder is obtained from the fruits of the plant Juglans regia, commonly called a walnut tree. It is a large deciduous tree that bears fruit. The seeds inside the fruits are edible and have a rich flavor. It is native to the Balkans, the eastern region of the Himalayas, and southwest China. It is now widely cultivated in parts of Europe as well. The seed of the plant has high nutritional value and is used in foodstuffs and also as herbal medicine. The seeds are covered by a hard shell, which is crushed and powdered and used in various applications.
Use & Benefits:
- Exfoliating Agent: The shell is crushed into a fine powder form and used as an exfoliator. It aids in the removal of dead skin cells from the skin's surface.
- Skin Smoothing: It helps in keeping the skin smooth and prevents clogging of the pores, which in turn reduces infections like acne on the skin.
- Cleansing Properties: It keeps the skin clean and smooth.
- Compatibility with Surfactants: It is compatible with other anionic, cationic, and non-ionic surfactants.
- Variety of Applications: It is used in facial scrubs, skin cleansers, body polishing, and other skin care products.
