Sandalwood HydrolatSandalwood Hydrolat
Summary of properties
antiinfectious, antiinflammatory, astringent (mild), balancing, calming
Catty (2001) says that sandalwood hydrolat is quite rare and attributes many virtues to it, including its application as a douche for vaginitis and candida albicans, plus the fact that it is mentally balancing and calming.
Catty believes it to be exceptional in skin care, recommending it in a compress for mature and delicate skin (though she also says it is slightly drying and astringent): she says it may also help rosacea, brokens veins, eczema and psoriasis. She considers it to be a great aftershave.
