INCI: Juglans Regia Shell

Walnut Shells are bulk hard, plant-based shells from Juglans regia , commonly used in natural body care, henna work, plant dye projects and craft applications. When finely milled, they can be used as a biodegradable exfoliant in rinse-off soaps and scrubs. Strong walnut shell decoctions can also be used externally in hair, skin and henna colour projects to add warm earthy brown tones. The bulk format suits soap makers, scrub formulators, henna users and natural craft makers.

♡ Why we love it: Walnut shells are a practical plastic-free exfoliant and natural colour-support material. The bulk format is useful for makers who mill, blend or brew shells regularly for cosmetic and craft projects.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.

Also available in a smaller retail size.
