Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Organic Cucumber Powder
Q: Why choose cucumber powder over fresh cucumber in soapmaking? A: Fresh cucumber spoils quickly and adds excess water. Our organic cucumber powder is shelf-stable, concentrated, and won’t disrupt your lye calculations — perfect for consistent, long-lasting batches.
Q: How much cucumber powder should I add to melt-and-pour soap? A: Start with ½ tsp per 500g base at light trace. Stir well to avoid clumping — it gives a soft green tint and cooling sensation without affecting cure time.
Q: Will it help with acne or inflamed skin in face masks? A: Yes! Its natural caffeic acid and silica content help reduce redness and swelling. Mix with manuka honey for a gentle, antibacterial spot treatment mask.
Q: Can I use it in cream or lotion formulations? A: Absolutely. Disperse 1–2% in the water phase before emulsification — boosts hydration and gives products a luxurious, cooling finish.
Q: Is your cucumber powder 100% pure with no additives? A: Yes — single-ingredient, spray-dried organic cucumbers. No fillers, anti-caking agents, or preservatives. Certified organic and cosmetic-safe.
Q: Does the colour stay true in high-pH soap? A: The soft green hue holds well in cold-process soap (pH 8–10), but may vary depending on your oil base. For vibrant results, add during the oil phase.
