Reviews
luxurious and versatile!
The scent of this body powder is so lovely, discrete, luxurious! I love its texture and versatility too. I use it on my body instead of perfume, a little bit in my hair as a dry shampoo, or as a deodorant. 100% happy with it!

Sophisticated smell & feel
This is my new favorite powder. It smells like cardamom and rose and it's absolutely fantastic. It literally feels like silk on your skin. I wish I tried it sooner. It's a new regular in my Hauschka collection!

Body powder like no other
I have sensitive skin that is prone to breakouts. But when it gets hot I use powder in the areas where my skin folds. Add also the fact that I am asmatic and scented things will cause issue. So I bought one during the 12 days of Christmas. And it worked great. There is a scent;sutle. My asthma did not flair up, thank goodness! Will be using this product during the hot weather months and during times of hot flashes to help me keep those folds dry.

Wonderful
I’ve been a fan of this product for years… It’s great as a dry shampoo, it’s great in the summer when the humidity is high, you can use it as a facial powder, a body powder and it’s super fantastic when you sprinkle it on your sheets, you just slide and you feel like you’re in a luxury hotel. This is always a staple in our home.

Unbeatable!
This is the best body powder on the market. It's true it may be a bit "grainy" as other reviewers have said, but that doesn't really impact its effectiveness or use. Even in the record high temperatures we are experiencing this summer, I stay very dry. I find the delivery system difficult though and wish it came in a container with a powder puff. It is pricey. Worth it, but I don't like wasting it.

Lovely smell, but...
I love the smell of this talc free powder, but it has a grainy consistency that I don't like. Don't know if I will repurchase again.

I enjoy body powder - use it daily, but I have not decided on the fragrance of this... Have used it just 1x - I will try it again

Wonderful talc free powder
No one should use a product with talc. This powder is amazing, talc free, can be used on the face, lasts forever, and has no fragrance. I use it after the Sage deodorant and I am covered all day even in the summer.

Aromatic comfort
I have used Hauschka silk powder for years because of its safe formula, smooth consistency, and pleasant aroma. Other non-talc bath powders are grainy and not as long lasting.

It’s ok
I thought this powder would be more refined than it is. It’s very grainy and consistency and I found that to be annoying and challenging to use as a dry shampoo

Just plain powder
Over price. And it just as regular as the store bought.

Essential Part of my Body Care Collection
Body Silk is the Best Dr. Hauschka Product for hot sticky summer days (and nightly hot flashes if you have that issue) and is the reason I began shopping the website; Whole Foods stopped carrying it, even though it's perfect for babies, too. It's so light, so fresh-smelling and leaves skin feeling smooth and refreshed and not all gooped up. I gift Body Silk to my menopausal friends to share the wealth.

Mix with loose face powder!
For a lighter complexion. I am a super fair redhead and it’s a better and lighter color for me. I love the feel of the powder.

Not silky
I really want to love this powder, but the grainy texture is anything but silk-like. With that said, the fragrance is natural and pleasant, and it really does keep perspiration odors at bay. Waaaaay too expensive, though.

FRAGRANCE is too overpowering
It's a great powder, but I'm allergic to fragrances, even natural ones sometimes (unfortunately). I wish this powder's fragrance wasn't so strong, because I really like this body powder. Hopefully Dr. Hauschka can make something similar fragrance-free. Give allergy sufferers like me to choose something without fragrance. Thanks for letting me write a review.

Excellent + Versatile Powder
This works really well, for body, to prime your skin for the day & to freshen up; as well as for face to finish make-up and for your head/hair. Amazingly effective. I forget to stock it so will run out, but it is one I think is essential care aide so prefer to have it on hand to use daily.

Dry Shampoo
I really like this powder. I use it as dry shampoo on my hair between washes and it works way better than any other baby powder/dry shampoo I have used. It makes my hair look less oily and adds volume. And the smell is lovely.

luxurious but pricey
I got this as a present and thoroughly enjoyed it's touch - like corn tassels but it it too pricey to justify getting it myself. Maybe in a larger format... just wishful?

Not for me
I really wanted to love this powder, but I'm just not impressed. It has a nice scent, but I don't like how it sits on my skin. I've also tried it as a dry shampoo and I didn't notice any of the oil in my hair being absorbed. I absolutely love Dr Hauschka products, so it's hard for me to not love this product.

SO SORRY TO SAY BUT......
I am so sad to say this but I honestly do not like this product. while it replaces Talc which is a good thing the fragrance is very much overkill. would rather see a fresh scent vanilla, coconut or the like. the container is so small that the price is just out of control. and for those reasons I have to say not for me. sorry.

Silk body powder
The silk body powder is awesome. I'm bigger chested so it works well for keeping my girls dry all day. I also used it as a dry shampoo a day after I washed it, with excellent results. It takes the oil out and gives hair great body all day. No need to reapply for me. Thanks for making this all natural product, I stay away from the talcum stuff as it is not good for the body. Thanks so much for making this product.

The ultimate body powder for southern summers.
I couldn't get through the South Carolina summer without this wonderful body powder. It has a delicate scent that doesn't draw attention to itself and the powder itself makes damp skin feel immediately cool and dry.

Body Silk kudos
My skin is sensitive to almost every skin care product. So, yes, I use all things Hauschka. Silk body powder is one of my favorite products. It's gentle, leaves no scent,, absorbs beautifully.
