The label calls it an herbal body dust, line name Sprinkle. The full list is white clay, arrowroot, marshmallow root, corn starch, lavandin flowers, rose flowers, baking soda and an essential oil blend, in a 3.5 oz tube with a soft floral scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo talc at all\u003c\/strong\u003e, with arrowroot and corn starch doing the absorbing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhite clay slip\u003c\/strong\u003e that makes skin feel smooth instead of chalky.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFloral scent\u003c\/strong\u003e from lavandin and rose flowers milled into the powder.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBaking soda inside\u003c\/strong\u003e for a fresher feel through a long, warm day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eArrowroot and Clay Instead of Talc\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eArrowroot and corn starch are fine starch powders that soak up moisture from the skin's surface. White clay adds slip, the silky feel that lets skin glide against skin, and it soaks up a little oil too. \u003cstrong\u003eTogether they do the job talc used to do\u003c\/strong\u003e, with a softer, less powdery finish. Baking soda is there because it neutralizes the acidic side of body odor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShake Into Your Palm First\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTap a little into one hand, then press it onto the skin. The maker's directions point to the creases of the underarms, arms, legs and wrists, the places where moisture sits. \u003cstrong\u003ePatting rather than puffing keeps the powder on you and out of the air\u003c\/strong\u003e, and it is far less mess on a bathroom counter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeep the open tube away from your face and mouth while you dispense it, so you never breathe the powder in.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDeodorant and Dry Shampoo Uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLaguna Herbals suggests it as an underarm deodorant and as a dry shampoo. As a deodorant it absorbs dampness and the baking soda handles odor; it is not an antiperspirant, so it will not stop sweat. If baking soda deodorants have bothered your underarms before, know that this powder carries it too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor hair, part dry roots and pat a pinch in with your fingertips, then brush it through. The starch and clay take up oil at the scalp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTalc Free Powder for Warm Months\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it go under clothes right away?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. Pat off any excess first, since loose powder shows on dark fabric, and let it sit for a minute before you dress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it show on dark hair?\u003c\/strong\u003e A little, at first. Apply it at night and brush in the morning; by then the clay has settled into the roots and the white cast has faded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs body powder a summer thing?\u003c\/strong\u003e Mostly. Search interest climbs through summer and peaks in August, when heat and humidity make dry skin creases the priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is lavandin?\u003c\/strong\u003e A hybrid of true lavender with a more camphor-like note, so it reads fresher and sharper than lavender on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Laguna Herbals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68266359161133,"sku":"SP0015","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/4553\/2717\/files\/laguna-herbals-talc-free-body-powder-1.png?v=1794218907","url":"https:\/\/aysire.com\/products\/talc-free-body-powder","provider":"Aysire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
