Lens culinaris

In haircare, protein-rich ingredients like lentils give condition, shine and strength to the hair.

Using powders rather than liquids helps to create solid, naked products that don’t need packaging. 

What are the benefits of lentil powder?

• Shine
• Strengthening

Lentils are low in fat and full of fibre, folic acid and iron. They’ve been used throughout the ages in cosmetics. The Egyptians believed lentils to have aphrodisiac and mind-enhancing properties; Roman women used a beauty paste made of honey and lentils to lighten their skin; and in India and the Middle East, women have used lentils in beauty preparations and hair care for centuries.
