Arrowroot is a white powder extracted from the root of a West Indian plant, Marantha arundinacea. It looks and feels like cornstarch. Arrowroot is indigenous to the West Indies, where native people, the Arawaks, used the powder. The Arawaks used the substance to draw out toxins from people wounded by poison arrows. Its name is thought to be derived from that practice.

Arrowroot powder is the most popular ingredient for making Body Powders. It is great used all by itself! You can add ground herbs, talc and clays to dress it up a bit as a fine, rich body powder. Can also be very useful to thicken water based lotions creams etc. And especially for an aloe vera base, as aloe vera juice is quite thin on its own.
