The Oil of Sacred Devotion
Sandalwood has been used throughout history as an incense in religious ceremonies, meditation and embalming. Its grounding effects and ability to quieten the mind see that it is still used in meditation and spiritual practices today.
With its sweet, woody aroma, Sandalwood is great to include in your beauty regime. It promotes a healthy, smooth complexion and can help reduce the appearance of skin imperfections and scars.
For a beautiful at home spa experience, try filling a large bowl with steaming water, then apply 1 or 2 drops to your face. Place your face above the steaming water and cover your head with a towel. This will leave your skin feeling nourished and rejuvenated. You can also try applying 1-2 drops to wet hair to help restore moisture and give hair a silky shine.
Not only is Sandalwood grounding and calming, but it is also uplifting which makes it a great oil to use in your diffuser.
