CARMEL ORGANICS Manjistha Root/Indian Madder Powder (8 Ounce), Natural dye and Hair Color | Ayurvedic Herb for Skin and Health, No Added Preservative or Additives, Non-GMO

I ordered the manjistha powder. I made a clay mask for my face with it & some aloe Vera leaf powder & water. It was excellent. I used so little, I look forward to it again. After a thorough gentle gel cleanse followed by a good quality scrub, steam & clay mask, my skin felt very clean and smooth and any pain from blemishes ceased immediately (That’s 1 of my fave benefits of the manjistha powder, it’s simple to mix & it’s a beautiful color. The complimentary tea bags with my purchase is lovely, I’m interested in checking out more tea from this company for its delicious. Thank you.

I got this for dyeing fabric & yarn. I used linen and wool fabric, and wool and silk yarn and thread. I got the most glorious shade of red orange on the wool fabric. I got kind of a pinky red on the linen fabric and got various shades of red and orange on the wool and silk. I understood this is not what the product advertised but it worked really well!

Good product.

I use it for making a red dye, it works good for that. It makes a strong red dye.

I don't know if this was a product issue or just a misuse issue on my part. I had a soap recipe that called for using madder root for coloring soap red. I did not like the color that came out it was more of a rust color than red. But again that could have been my problem or at least my recipes problem.

The package does not state madder root.

This really is good, potent stuff. Definitely works if you want to dye a fabric red.But I made the 1st mistake of not adding milk/yogurt to the powder for making face-pack out of it. And then 2nd stupid mistake of not testing it on my wrist before painting my face with it.Whoa! I ended up with a RED face! Good thing I work from home, otherwise they'd think I was in some "solar accident" LOL. Anyway, I had to rub on some lemon juice to lighten it up-EEKS! But then it naturally faded away in two days. So, do beware... this Manjistha is THAT GOOD!

Bought for natural dying, works a charm.
