If your mum and grandma were your go-to skincare advisors growing up, then you have probably heard of ‘Chandan’. If you haven’t, then let us quickly introduce you to this miraculous ingredient nestled in your grandmother’s beauty recipes- #SpectacularSandalwood. Scientifically known as Santalum Album, it is renowned for its aromatic and rejuvenating properties and is a common feature in the ideal skincare regime stated in the ancient Ayurvedic scriptures.
Sandalwood is that helpful friend you need when in trouble, well in this case- skincare troubles! Every time a gnarly pimple pops up, pigmentation is not fading away, or even if you just need the extra glow for that festive Saturday soiree you’ve been invited to; Sandalwood is your ingredient! With its light and dry physical qualities, cold potency and clarifying properties, it works wonderfully to alleviate several skin-related concerns.
Here are a few quick tips and DIY recipes with Sandalwood that you can whip up at home and unravel rejuvenated, glowing skin; just in time for the festive season!
Sandalwood For Dry Skin
Must-have: If you have dry and patchy skin, Sandalwood essential oil should be your holy grail! It works excellently for dry skin, given its lubricating and nourishing properties. It has the dual benefits of sandalwood for skin, not only improving skin imbalances but also in helping soothe anxiety and sleeplessness when infused in skincare products for dry skin.
DIY: Mix 1 tablespoon of Sandalwood powder and 1 teaspoon of Rose petal powder with milk to form a fine paste. Apply this on the face and neck area and leave for 15 minutes. Do this once or twice a week for smooth, supple skin.
Sandalwood For Oily Skin
Must-have: A Sandalwood infused Ubtan makes for the perfect purifying addition to your daily, facial cleansing regime. The astringent and antiseptic properties of Sandalwood clear the skin of excess moisture, target active acne, and effectively lighten pigmentation and scarring.
DIY: Mix 1 tablespoon of Coconut powder with 1 tablespoon of Sandalwood powder and add some Tomato juice to it. Apply this paste on all affected areas almost like a spot treatment and leave for 10 minutes. Rinse with cold water once done.
