Powdered Sage

Salvia officinalis

Sage is stimulating and cleansing to the skin and scalp, and soothing to sore muscles. Powdered sage is cleansing and absorbs excess sweat, and helps to prevent body odor, which is why you can find it in some of our powder deodorants.

Sage is thought to purify and cleanse a place, warding off evil spirits. Powdered sage has many culinary uses: it's added to cheese, sausages and stuffing, and it can also be used as a tea. Our powdered sage is sourced from Turkey via a UK supplier. The leaves are picked for immediate use, or before flowers open for oil distillation and drying. The dried leaves are ground to produce powdered sage.
