A decadent duet designed to transform your daily rituals into a sensory skincare experience, powered by our sustainable Indian sandalwood. 

Known as the 'King of Woods', Indian sandalwood (Santalum album) is revered for its rich, aromatic profile that is at once uplifting and grounding. 

Beyond its captivating fragrance, science is now proving what Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine practitioners have known for centuries: Indian sandalwood's ability to cool, calm, and soothe the skin. When tested on skin cells in a recent study, Indian sandalwood oil  demonstrated that it could help reduce inflammation by blocking certain cellular pathways that lead to skin irritation and aging.

Specifically, Indian sandalwood was found to inhibit the activation and movement of a protein complex known as NF-κB, which is involved in triggering the body's inflammatory response. Eclipsing the anti-oxidant value of Vitamin E, Indian sandalwood's bioactive constituents exert potent benefits for the skin and beyond.

These benefits include significant anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, antioxidative, antimicrobial, and astringent properties, for radiant, bright, and optimally healthy skin.

INDIAN SANDALWOOD BENEFITS

1. CALMS INFLAMMATION + REDNESS

When tested on skin cells in a 2021 study, Indian sandalwood oil was found to inhibit the movement of a protein complex known as NF-κB, which is involved in triggering the body's inflammatory response.

2. BREAKS DOWN HYPERPIGMENTATION

The sesquiterpene α-santalol, a key component of sandalwood oil, is an effective natural inhibitor of the enzyme tyrosinase, which plays a central role in the production of melanin, the group of molecules responsible for pigmentation of skin.

3. PRESERVES SKIN ELASTICITY

Indian sandalwood oil is proven through in vitro testing to preserve skin elasticity by inhibiting the activity of collagen-degrading enzymes.

4. PREVENTS PREMATURE AGING

When tested on human skin cells and tissues exposed to blue light and cigarette smoke, sandalwood oil outperformed even vitamin E (alpha tocopherol) in its ability to protect and rejuvenate the skin via its antioxidant potency.

5. IMPROVES HEALTHY SKIN CELL TURNOVER

When tested on human skin at low concentrations, Indian sandalwood oil has been proven to help eliminate damaged skin cells, allowing for the regeneration of new, healthy skin cells, resulting in younger and brighter looking skin.

6. SHRINKS PORES + FINE LINES

The bioactive compounds in sandalwood oil help to improve overall skin texture, contributing to the appearance of smaller pores and reduced fine lines.

7. TREATS + PREVENTS BREAKOUTS

Due to its abundance of alpha santalol compounds, Indian sandalwood oil has been proven to be a safe antiseptic agent, making it an ideal treatment for acne, enlarged pores, congestion, and break-out prone skin.
