Hawaiian Sandalwood comes from the Santalum Paniculatum plant, which can be either a tree or a shrub. The tree can grow up to 15 metres tall, with a canopy that stretches for 9 metres or even more. It has glossy, green leaves, and colourful, aromatic flowers.
Hawaiian Sandalwood essential oil is extracted in Hawaii from the wood of the plant. First, the outer layers of the wood are stripped to reveal the heartwood. The heartwood is then chipped into tiny pieces, before undergoing a 36-hour steam distillation process.
The use of Hawaiian Sandalwood essential oil dates back thousands of years. When used aromatically it has a sweet, woody aroma which elicits feelings of calmness and wellbeing, lifting the mood and easing tension.
When used topically, Hawaiian Sandalwood soothes the skin and helps to reduce the appearance of blemishes. It can also be applied to the hair to leave it soft, silky, and healthy.
