How to Use Sandalwood Oil:
- For aromatherapy, add a few drops of sandalwood oil to a diffuser to create a warm, grounding atmosphere that can help reduce stress, anxiety, and promote relaxation and mental clarity. You can also inhale the rich, woody aroma directly from the bottle for an instant sense of calm and inner peace.
- Mix sandalwood oil with a carrier oil like jojoba, almond, or coconut and apply it topically to the skin to help soothe inflammation, reduce the appearance of blemishes and fine lines, even skin tone, and promote a smooth, radiant complexion. Always do a patch test first and avoid sun exposure after application.
- Add a few drops of diluted sandalwood oil to your bathwater to create a luxurious, spa-like experience that can help ease muscle tension, soothe the skin, and promote overall relaxation.
- Use sandalwood oil in homemade skincare products like face serums, toners, and moisturizers to enjoy its skin-nourishing, anti-aging, and balancing benefits. You can also add it to your existing products for an extra boost.
- Massage diluted sandalwood oil onto pulse points, the chest, or the soles of the feet to help ground emotions, enhance meditation or spiritual practices, and promote a restful night’s sleep.
- Always dilute sandalwood essential oil properly before topical use and perform a patch test to check for skin sensitivity. Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, and other sensitive areas. Consult with a healthcare professional before using if you are pregnant, nursing, or have any medical concerns.
