Urtica Dioica Leaf Powder (Nettle Leaf Powder)
Urtica Dioica Leaf Powder is a finely milled botanical powder made from the leaves of Urtica dioica (stinging nettle), valued in cosmetic formulations for its skin- and scalp-conditioning benefits and its natural “clarifying” positioning. Naturally containing minerals, polyphenols, and other plant constituents (depending on harvest and processing), it is commonly used to support a fresher, more balanced look—particularly in oily-feeling skin or scalp concepts—while contributing gentle exfoliating texture and enhanced sensory character in powder- and paste-based formats. It can also help reinforce a botanical, herbal product story and add visual and tactile interest to scrubs, masks, and solid cosmetics. Urtica Dioica Leaf Powder is found in scalp scrubs, shampoos (including dry or powder shampoos), cleansing powders, masks, soaps, body scrubs, and targeted treatments, typically used at low to moderate levels and formulated to maintain smooth application and good tolerance.
