Sandalwood is my second favourite essential oil, second to Ylang Ylang
. Sandalwood has an earthly robust smell and is often used in men’s colognes and aftershaves. Sandalwood is a natural aphrodisiac too, hence the “sexy” part of this post.
Sandalwood
is a name given to a class of fragrant woods that, unlike other aromatic woods, can retain their fragrance for decades. It is so special that unfortunately is one of the more expensive oils but in my experience, a little goes a long way.
Sandalwood is a mild astringent and has antibacterial qualities. It is also anti-inflammatory and can be useful for certain skin irritations like acne and eczema, but mostly it just smells amazing! All of these soaps and the face mask use Sandalwood essential oils and although this article is aimed at men, I would 100% use these handmade soaps
too.
