The power of plants
Bambusa arundinacea, a variety of bamboo found throughout India, is a fast-growing type of reed with a tall, hollow stem. The substance that forms in drops on the nodes of branches is known as "bamboo tears" or "tabashir" in India. It is very rich in silica and used in traditional medicine for its beneficial action on the joints and its toning and fortifying properties.
Skincare benefits of Bamboo powder
The powder produced from bamboo tears is commonly used to mattify the skin when the particles are fine and to exfoliate when the particles are large. This powder is also used in make-up to improve hold.
