What Is Cosmetic Grade Chandan Powder?

Chandan powder refers to finely milled sandalwood (Santalum) powder thats meant for external use on the skin.

• Cosmetic grade means its processed and cleaned so its suitable for beauty and skincare applications (face packs, masks, scrubs), not for eating. It should be pure, chemical-free and free of fillers meant for topical use only.

According to sellers and product descriptions, cosmetic-grade sandalwood powder typically uses wood chips and lower heartwood fractions of the sandal tree that are cleaned and ground finely. It retains beneficial properties (cooling effect, soothing skin) even if potency is lower than premium heartwood dust.
