You have been living under the rock if you don’t know the goodness of Sandalwood and its benefits for the skin. Some of the many benefits include fighting pimples, reducing the tan and brightening the skin and disappearing the acne scars on face. This is the reason so many indian soaps include Sandalwood as an ingredient. Also, Sandalwood works on all kinds of skins. But not many people are aware of ways to use Sandalwood powder. Go on ahead and read the following tips if you are one of them.
If you are struggling with acne scars on your face, mix sandalwood powder with one spoon milk and two spoons honey and make it into a paste and apply it on your face and especially on the acne. Let it rest for 15 minutes and wash it with cold water gently. Doing this twice a week can help in reducing the acne scars. A mixture of sandalwood oil and olive oil can be applied to your face and slowly massage it for 15 minutes. Wash the face with cold water later. This can give you soft and smooth skin.
If you have black spots on your face, mix sandalwood powder with one spoon turmeric powder and camphor and apply it as pack. Leave it on for 15 minutes and rinse your face with cold water. Blackheads and acne can also be reduced by applying this pack twice a week. Some important things to remember are to never let the pack completely dry on your face as it will suck the moisture out. Also gently wash your face after the pack dries without stretching your skin.
