Pour qui
Descriptif
Santalum Album Oil is the essential oil distilled from the heartwood of sandalwood, a fragrant ingredient long used in perfumery and skincare. In cosmetics, it’s valued mainly for its scent and for the soft, comforting feel it can bring to formulas. You’ll often see it in facial oils, creams, balms, and hair products where a warm, woody aroma and a touch of elegance are desired.
For skin, Santalum Album Oil is typically included to help products feel soothing and luxurious, and it may be especially appealing in routines aimed at dry, dull, or stressed-looking skin. In hair care, it can add fragrance and a polished sensory finish to oils, masks, and conditioners. People who enjoy natural aromatic ingredients or richer, more spa-like formulas may appreciate it most.
Caveat: as with many essential oils, it can be irritating for some people, especially in concentrated leave-on products. Sensitive skin types should look for well-formulated products with low amounts of fragrance ingredients and consider patch testing first. It’s best thought of as a sensory and supportive ingredient, not a treatment for skin concerns.
