Red_Sandalwood_(Pterocarpus_santalinus)

Red sandalwood, or Pterocarpus santalinus, is a revered Ayurvedic ingredient known for its skin-brightening, anti-inflammatory, and cooling properties. Unlike white sandalwood, it has a deep red hue and is used primarily for enhancing complexion and treating skin issues like acne, blemishes, and sunburn. Its natural astringency tightens pores, reduces oiliness, and refines skin texture. Rich in antioxidants, it supports cell regeneration and slows aging signs. Used in face packs and herbal masks, red sandalwood imparts a healthy glow and soothes irritated skin. Regular use helps achieve an even tone, smoother texture, and visibly rejuvenated, radiant skin.
