What Is Sandalwood Soap?
Sandalwood soap is a type of soap made with essential oils derived from trees of the genus Santalum. These essential oils are fragrant and aromatic, and are often used to make incense and perfume, as well as soap. Most sandalwood soap is all-natural and is often vegan as well, containing no animal products, although some soaps made with sandalwood may contain ingredients that are not vegan, such as goat’s milk. Sandalwood essential oils are calming to the skin and therefore useful when applied to skin that is irritated, dry, cracked, or affected by acne. The oils are also used in aromatherapy to reduce tension, and also have antimicrobial and antiseptic properties.
