Product Overview
MB Herbals Alkanet Root Powder is a finely ground, pure herbal powder sourced from the roots of Alkanna tinctoria, commonly known as alkanet or ratanjot. This 8 oz (227 g) package provides a generous supply of natural red dye that has been used for centuries in traditional cosmetics, fabric coloring, and hair care. Free from synthetic additives, this powder is ideal for those seeking a gentle, plant-based alternative for enhancing their beauty routine or crafting projects.
Key Features and Benefits
- Natural Coloring Agent: Imparts a beautiful red to purple hue to lip balms, soaps, creams, and fabrics without harsh chemicals.
- Hair Growth Support: Traditionally used in hair oils and masks to stimulate the scalp and promote healthy hair growth.

- Pure & Unadulterated: No fillers, preservatives, or artificial colors – just 100% alkanet root powder.
- Easy to Use: Simple infusion in oils or water for DIY projects.
How to Use
For Cosmetics: Infuse the powder in a carrier oil (e.g., jojoba, almond) at a ratio of 1 tablespoon per cup of oil. Heat gently for 1-2 hours, then strain. Use the colored oil in lip balms, salves, or lotions.
For Hair: Mix powder with warm water or coconut oil to form a paste. Apply to scalp and hair, leave for 30-60 minutes, then rinse. Repeat weekly for best results.
For Fabrics: Simmer 2-3 tablespoons of powder in a gallon of water for 30 minutes. Strain, then immerse pre-wetted fabric for 1-2 hours. Rinse and dry.
