Product Overview

Sidr Powder is a highly valued traditional ingredient derived from the leaves of the Ziziphus Spina-Christi tree. Known for its rich cleansing, healing, and strengthening properties, Sidr is widely used in natural hair and skincare rituals throughout the Middle East and Africa.

It acts as a mild natural cleanser, strengthens hair strands, reduces scalp irritation, and enhances shine—making it ideal for shampoo powders, hair masks, and herbal treatments. On the skin, Sidr helps soothe irritation, calm acne-prone skin, and gently cleanse without stripping moisture.
