Sneha Singh

Looking after your skin is essential. Having healthy skin makes you feel confident. That is why Purplle offers a range of sandalwood facepacks! Choose from the best sandalwood facepacks for all skin types. 

It's hard to find skincare products that suit your skin and can stick with you for a long time. Unfortunately, few products rejuvenate and replenish the skin, making your skin feel young and healthy. Sandalwood is one such goodness that works for all skin types and can give you glowing skin. 

Sandalwood (Chandan) has been used for thousands of years due to its medicinal properties and healing benefits. It has also been used in various soaps and beauty products because of its unique properties. It is one of the most expensive woods and has always been highly valued. 
 Sandalwood helps reduce acne, scars, evens out the skin tone, improves the elasticity, reduces dark spots, and helps with pigmentation. In addition, it has anti-inflammatory properties and helps cool the skin. Including sandalwood in your skincare regime can do wonders for your skin and help you feel refreshed. 

Here are a few ways you can use sandalwood based on your skin type

 1. Sandalwood Face pack for Oily Skin
 Sandalwood combined with almond, coconut, jojoba, and tea tree oils helps soak up the oil from the skin and provide the right amount of moisture. Use any of one of the mentioned oils and mix it with sandalwood and rosewater for best results. The sandalwood will retain moisture and give you glowing skin, while the secondary oil reduces the oil. Using this face pack in your skincare routine will unclog your pores and keep the skin intact. You could also add orange peel if it suits you. 

Take and mix:

  • 1 tsp sandalwood powder
  • ½ tsp oil of your choice
  • ½ tsp rosewater

Keep it on for about 5 mins

Dab with a wet cloth
 2. Sandalwood Face Pack for Dry Skin
 Sandalwood combined with honey is very beneficial for dry skin. Honey adds useful moisture to the skin and improves its pH. It will uplift your skin, take away the dryness, and give you glowing skin. 

Take and mix:

  • 1 tsp sandalwood powder
  • 1 tsp honey

Keep it on for about 10 mins

3. Sandalwood Face Pack for Glowing Skin
 Sandalwood with turmeric and curd is the best combination for dull skin. Turmeric helps revive the skin and adds a natural glow. It adds luster and helps the skin look vibrant. Along with curd, it improves the skin's elasticity and reduces fine lines, causing your skin to glow. These two ingredients combined with sandalwood add definition and radiance to your skin.

Take and mix:
