Cascarilla Powder

Cascarilla powder is a traditional white powder made from finely ground eggshells and is widely used in Afro-Caribbean spiritual traditions, folk magic, cleansing, and protection work. Unlike pressed Cascarilla cups, this loose powder is easy to sprinkle, blend, mark, or add directly to ritual preparations.

Cascarilla is commonly used to create protective boundaries, cleanse spiritual spaces, and help keep unwanted influences away. It may be sprinkled around doorways, windows, altar areas, or the perimeter of a room, or used to draw protective symbols and lines. Some practitioners also add small amounts to floor washes, spiritual baths, powders, or other cleansing preparations.

In Lukumí/Santería practice, cascarilla is especially associated with Obatalá, whose correspondences include white, purity, coolness, peace, and clarity. Cascarilla may also be used more broadly in Orisha-based cleansing and protective work according to the customs of a particular house or lineage.
