How to use organic tulsi powder
We love tulsi powder for its versatility. There are plenty of ways to make the most of this supplement’s plethora of benefits.
Tulsi powder for drinking
One of the easiest and most effective ways to enjoy tulsi powder is by creating a fragrant and refreshing tea. All you need to do is add ⅓ of a teaspoon of organic tulsi powder to a mug and pour in one cup of filtered water. Let it steep for about 20 minutes, then strain, and sip.
When preparing tulsi powder for tea, bear in mind that it has a naturally bitter and pungent taste, offering a warming feel. If you like, you can add honey or agave for a bit of sweetness.
You can also stir tulsi powder, with its gentle floral aroma, into smoothies!
Using tulsi leaf powder topically
Another way to benefit from tulsi leaves is to combine the powder with a liquid or cream base to create a face mask.
You can mix it with water, rose water, honey, or yoghurt to create a paste. Apply it as a cleansing and soothing face mask for 15 minutes before gently washing away with warm water.

FAQs
Does tulsi powder tea contain caffeine?
Tulsi “tea” is caffeine free and can be safely consumed up to six times a day.
Is tulsi leaf powder safe for use during pregnancy?
Studies from the 1970s suggested that tulsi might have a mild anti-fertility effect in animals. Although this has not been shown to occur in humans, if you are pregnant or trying to be, we do not recommend consuming or using tulsi powder.
Can I apply tulsi powder directly on my face?
Absolutely, tulsi powder makes an excellent cleanser and face mask. You can create a paste to help remove makeup and dirt, reduce the appearance of oil, and clear pores.
Please note: Our tulsi it is packed on premises that handles nuts and seeds, so we cannot guarantee it is free from nut traces.
