It may not surprise you to know that Alkanet is known for its beautiful red dye, for if you’ve worked with it before, you can see from your fingertips! You can also use it in a tinted lip gloss, if you like. I have no doubt it was the favoured way in which women through the ages have given their pouts a bit of colour before Revlon and other make up companies came out with tubes of lipstick. Not only has Alkanet been used for lippy, but has, and still is, used to colour wood stain, cloth dye, and wine.

Alkanet is a wonderful herb to use for anything related to money. You can carry a piece of the root with you when going gambling to increase your luck or mix the powdered root with other money-drawing herbs, flowers, and woods to carry in a sachet or talisman. It is also a fabulous anti-negativity herb and has long been used in loose incenses.
