Cooling calm for warm, sensitive skin

Sandalwood — Chandan in Sanskrit — is one of the most sacred and revered ingredients in Ayurvedic skincare tradition. Classified as a cooling, calming herb in Ayurveda, it is the classic choice for Pitta skin: warm, sensitive, prone to redness. This after-shower body oil carries sandalwood's grounding, ceremonial scent alongside its traditionally soothing properties.

How to use: Apply immediately after shower on slightly damp skin. The light, fast-absorbing base makes it ideal for daily use. Sandalwood's scent deepens on warm skin — it works particularly well as an evening ritual.

Developed on ancient Ayurvedic principles. Manufactured under a government-issued AYUSH license.

Ancient Wisdom

The Ayurveda Story

Sandalwood paste was used in ancient Ayurvedic practice as a daily face and body application — applied for its cooling and soothing properties, and for its grounding scent which Ayurvedic tradition also valued for the mind. Indian sandalwood (Santalum album) was harvested and prepared with care, and was considered one of the most precious skincare ingredients in classical Ayurveda.

This oil carries that ingredient in its simplest, most direct form — in a base that lets the skin absorb it as intended.
