Amla Powder for Hair & Skin - CA Pack

Amla (Indian gooseberry) is often talked about in traditional hair and skin routines. Spierb Amla Powder brings that idea into a practical format for Canada: a single-ingredient amla fruit powder that fits neatly into your bathroom cupboard and mixes easily with water.

Used as an amla powder hair mask, it’s a flexible add-on to your wash day. You simply mix the powder with water to make a smooth paste, apply it to hair and scalp, let it sit for a short while, then rinse before shampooing. Many people enjoy how their hair feels afterwards—light, refreshed and ready for the rest of their styling routine.

On the skin, this amla powder for skin can be used in simple DIY face and body masks. Mixed into a soft paste, it becomes part of a calm evening ritual: a light layer, a short pause, and a rinse that leaves the skin feeling freshly cleansed and comfortable.

Because it’s just pure amla powder, you’re in control of how simple or creative you want to be. You can keep things minimal with only amla and water, or blend it with other favourite herbs. A classic combination is Amla with Shikakai powder in a hair mask, or Amla with Multani Mitti for a straightforward face mask. If you’ve been curious about using amla powder for hair and skin but weren’t sure where to start, this format makes it easy.

To help you experiment, the Spierb Learn Hub includes an Amla ingredient guide, step-by-step how-to articles, and a glossary entry for amla powder. These walk you through different ways to fit Amla into your cosmetic routine, at a pace that suits your hair and skin.

Always start with a patch test. See “Good to know” for a simple method.

For hair masks

1. Add 2–4 tablespoons of Amla Powder to a clean, non-metal bowl (adjust for hair length and thickness).
   
2. Slowly pour in lukewarm water, stirring until you get a smooth, yoghurt-like paste.
   
3. Keep it simple as an amla powder hair mask, or mix in other herbs such as Shikakai powder or a little Henna if they’re already part of your routine.
   
4. Apply to slightly damp hair and scalp, working section by section so everything is evenly coated.
   
5. Cover with a shower cap and leave for about 15–30 minutes, making sure the paste doesn’t dry hard.
   
6. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, then shampoo and condition as usual.
   

Start with about once a week and adjust based on how your hair feels.

For scalp-focused use

1. Mix a smaller amount of amla powder for hair and scalp with water to make a smooth, spreadable paste.
   
2. Apply gently to the scalp with your fingertips or a brush, focusing on areas that feel heavy or in need of attention.
   
3. Leave on for 10–20 minutes, then rinse, shampoo and condition as normal.
   

Begin with shorter timings and see how your scalp responds.

For face & body masks

1. For a simple amla powder face mask, add 1–2 teaspoons of Amla Powder to a bowl.
   
2. Add enough water (or a gentle hydrosol) to create a soft, lump-free paste.
   
3. Apply a thin layer to clean skin, avoiding the eye and lip area.
   
4. Leave on for around 5–10 minutes. If the mask starts to feel tight or uncomfortable, rinse earlier.
   
5. Rinse with lukewarm water, pat dry and follow with your usual moisturiser or body lotion.
   

Use 1–2 times a week, depending on how your skin feels.
