Description

Baobab Fruit Powder is a finely milled botanical powder made from the naturally dried fruit pulp of the African baobab tree ( Adansonia digitata ). Its fine texture makes it a lovely addition to facial masks, powder cleansers and gentle exfoliating blends, offering a softer polishing feel than traditional coarse scrub particles.

Baobab fruit pulp naturally contains vitamin C and plant antioxidant compounds, bringing additional botanical character to skincare formulations. Sourced from South Africa and made from 100% baobab fruit pulp with no added fillers, carriers or preservatives, it is a versatile ingredient for creating simple, plant-based skincare.

Why we love it: We love the gentle, fine texture of this South African botanical and how easily it can be incorporated into freshly mixed face masks and cleansing powders. It's a wonderfully simple way to explore natural fruit-based skincare. Key Properties INCI Name: Adansonia Digitata Fruit Pulp Powder Botanical Name: Adansonia digitata L.
