Collection: Face wash

Herbal face washes from Roots and Herbs cleanse using mild foaming powders and plant-based surfactants instead of the harsh sulphates found in most commercial face washes, so skin feels clean without the tight, stripped after-feel.

Why a herbal face wash powder

Many foaming cleansers rely on SLS and similar detergents that strip the skin's natural oils along with dirt and makeup. These powder-based washes use herbs and mild cleansing agents that lift away impurities while leaving the skin barrier intact. Curious what's actually in them? See our Ayurvedic Ingredient Glossary for a breakdown of herbs like Manjistha and Anantmool.

How to use a face wash powder

Mix a small amount with water in your palm to form a light foam, massage onto a damp face for 30-60 seconds, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, morning and night.

FAQs

Is a powder face wash better than a liquid cleanser? Powder cleansers let you control water content, so they can be formulated without the preservatives liquid washes need.
How often should I use a face wash? Twice daily, morning and night, is standard for most skin types.
