Skin benefits of using Sandalwood Powder (India):

Blemish Treatment: We all know that blemishes can be pretty stubborn but sandalwood is extremely effective in helping you get rid of these stubborn spots and blemishes most naturally.

• Gently massage it onto the affected area and leave it on overnight.
• Wash it off with cold water the next morning.

Doing this regularly will help in removing blemishes and also relax your skin.

Pimple treatment: As the skin produces sebum and oil in excess quantities, impurities, dirt and germs begin to clog the skin pores. This is the prime reason why pimples are formed. Sandalwood has anti-bacterial properties that help fight and prevent acne-causing bacteria, making your skin look flawless in the process.
