FAQ: Lilly Tragacanth Gum 

​1. What is Kathira, and what are its amazing benefits for hair and skin?

Internal & External Use: Kathira is a natural resin considered "raw collagen" from nature. Externally, it acts as a very powerful moisturizer that locks moisture into skin cells and hair strands. Since beauty starts from within, using Kathira as an external moisturizer protects your body from environmental dryness, giving you a vibrant and plump appearance.

​

​2. What are the benefits of Kathira for "Hair," and how can I boost its effectiveness?

External Use: It is the secret to density and softness; it coats the hair, increases its thickness, and provides instant shine. For maximum benefit, we recommend adding it to Sidr or Mashat blends. Kathira increases the moisture of the mix and balances the dryness of the herbs, ensuring your hair is both strong and soft.

​

​3. How does Kathira benefit the "Skin" as a natural moisturizer?

Internal & External Use: Kathira is one of the strongest natural moisturizers for the skin; it tightens the skin, reduces pores, and gives the face a natural "filter" glow. Regular external use maintains skin elasticity, and when supported by proper internal nutrition and hydration, you’ll notice a remarkable disappearance of fine lines and dryness.

​

​4. What is the correct way to prepare Kathira for use?

External Use: The ideal way is to soak a very small amount of Kathira pieces in plain water or rose water and leave it overnight until it turns into a thick, transparent jelly consistency. This jelly can then be applied directly to the skin or mixed with hair masks. Since absorption starts through the pores, this jelly consistency ensures nutrients reach deep into your cells externally.
