Ayurvedic Herbal Bath Powder-Sunni Pindi- How to use & Benefits

2/21/2015

Skin is the largest organ in our body. When we use a bath soap our body will absorb the chemicals through the skin. In the same way, when you use a herbal bath powder, the medicinal and healing qualities from the herbs enter into your body. They heal and nourish your body. To minimize the chemicals and toxins enter into your body, we should minimize using soaps containing harmful chemicals. I have a simple and easy recipe for ayurvedic herbal bath powder. Try this and share your feed back with me and other viewers.

Ingredients
1 cup of Besan/Chickpea flour/Gram flour/Senaga pindi
1 tbsp Rice flour
1 tbsp Turmeric powder/Haldi/Pasupu/Manjal
1 tbsp Amla/Amalaki powder/Usirika podi/Indian Goose berry
1 tbsp Tulasi/Holy Basil powder
1 tbsp Neem/Vepa/Indian Lilac powder
1 tbsp dry lemon or orange peel powder

Preparation
Take all the above ingredients in a bowl and mix them well without any lumps.

How to store
Store it in a bottle with holes on the lid like a spice container or salt shaker. These containers are easy to sprinkle bath powder. Keep this bottle in the bath room where you can reach easily but keep away from the water. If the water gets in the bottle the bath powder will get wet and will get spoil soon.

How to use
Here I will show you how to use everyday and on a regular weekly basis.
Weekly
Apply oil on all over your body. Let the skin absorb the oil and apply oil again and lightly massage. Take a small amount of bath powder in a bowl and make a paste by adding little water or milk. Apply this paste generously on your oiled skin and let it dry. Once it is dry you may wipe off by pressing hard on your skin back and forth. Like you are doing a deep massage. Then wash it off. You do not need to use a soap to wash. Besan in the bath powder will do the cleaning.
Daily
When you are taking shower daily sprinkle bath powder on your skin after wetting it. Gently rub your skin just like you use a soap. And finish your shower by washing it off. It takes almost the same amount of time like when you use a soap.

Health Benefits
Removes pimples and blackheads.
Nourishes the skin.
Cures eczema.
Prevents many more skin diseases.

I live in Canada where should I buy dry lemon or orange peel powder?

Hi Smitha,

You can make lemon or orange peel powder easily at home. I did mine. Cut the lemon or orange peel into small pieces and spread them on a plate and place inside your oven. You may turn on your oven to the lowest temp. or even without the heat on they will get dry. Without heating it may take 3-4 days. With heat on it will be done in a few hours. But you have to keep an eye otherwise they will burn. If you just leave them on your kitchen counter also they will get dry. When they are completely dry, you can grind them in your mixer - grinder into a fine powder.

If you don't want to go through this you may order online. Here is a link. http://www.starwest-botanicals.com/category/lemon-peel/

Hello Sarita,
Thank you for watching my video on my website.

If you are allergic to besan/gram flour, next best options are Oats and mung/pesalu.
Make a fine powder with oatmeal and add other ingredients.
Make a fine flour with mung/pesalu or mung dal/pesara pappu and add the other ingredients. If mung dal flour is available in Indian stores it will be easy for you. But I am not sure about that. Let me know how did it come out.

Hi, Yes you can mix those three for a daily face pack. But there is turmeric already in sunni pindi. You can add some more if you want.

Thanks for this simple and effective bath powder recipe! I have been using soap my whole life, I didn't know bath powder existed until I saw your video! My skin is so happy and vibrant!
I was just wondering if It's effective as a daily wash and if I can go on using it for years?

Thank you so much for your nice feedback. I am so glad to hear that your skin is so happy and vibrant.
You can use this bath powder everyday and forever. It has antibacterial herbs like Amla, Neem, and turmeric. There is no need to use soap. There are a lot of people just use bath powder all their lives without even touching a soap. They are happy with their healthy skin.

Hi Kalyani, It could be overheating. I can not understand why exactly. You may discontinue it for a few days.
Use turmeric besan paste for pimples. Check out this link. http://www.sasirekhaskitchen.com/home-remedy-for-pimplesacne-and-face-mask
Apply this on the pimples and marks. I hope this works.

can i leave the mask on face overnight ?

I don't think you need to leave the mask overnight. It will dry out after 30minutes anyway. The turmeric in the bath powder will stain on your sheets. So I wouldn't leave it overnight.

What is the remedy to remove facial hair faster and permanently

Sasi Rekha link

Hi Priya,

Facial hair is a problem for many women in these days. You can use home remedies like applying turmeric powder, besan, lemon juice etc. But you have to find out the root cause. In lot of women facial hair is because of the hormonal imbalance. It is better to get a hormonal check with a holistic doctor.
I read about Saw palmetto. Saw palmetto is a herb that reduces male hormones. Pregnant women and nursing women cannot take saw palmetto. I will give you a couple of links to read. Read and know about Saw palmetto before using.
