Sandalwood essential oil is actually already a classic - a well-known and well-loved product. It is extracted from the oldest wood, found in the inner part of the sandalwood tree (santalum album or santalum spicatum). Used invariably in the healing arts of Ayurveda, it has many properties that promote health and well-being. The captivating aroma is certainly not all it has to offer.
Sandalwood is one of the basic ingredients of many perfumes. The oriental, woody-floral fragrance has many admirers, the non-obvious balsamic notes add character, and the overall composition is perfect. The oil has been proven to lower blood pressure and cortisol levels, known as the stress hormone. The mild and soothing fragrance reduces tension, makes it easier to fall asleep and improves the quality of sleep.
It nourishes and moisturizes, has a beneficial effect on skin with imperfections - reduces lesions and prevents the formation of new ones. It is also suitable for hair care - restores elasticity and adds shine.
Essential oil is a multipurpose agent. It has antiviral, antibacterial and antioxidant effects. It can reduce inflammation that occurs in the course of skin diseases (such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis) - it restores normal functions, eliminates itching and severity of lesions.
