Lemon Peel Powder

Product Description:
 
Lemon Peel Powder is made from the dried, finely ground rind of lemon (Citrus limon), a citrus-rich ingredient valued across skincare, culinary, and herbal formulation for its bright fragrance and natural texture. Much like its counterpart Orange Peel Powder, it is made by drying and milling the fruit's rind rather than the pulp, concentrating the citrus oils and aroma into a fine, shelf-stable powder.
 
The peels are sun-dried and milled into a fine, pale yellow powder that blends smoothly into face packs, scrubs, and culinary preparations alike. Supplied in food-grade quality, it is suitable for both culinary and cosmetic use. Lemon Peel Powder is a regular reorder for cosmetic formulators, soap makers, and food and beverage brands working with citrus flavouring, and it's just as practical for a wellness brand testing a new scrub blend, or a home DIY user picking up a single pack for their own routine.
