Pure Red Sandalwood Powder (Lal Chandan / Rakta Chandana / लाल चंदन पाउडर)
Unlock the age-old secrets of Ayurvedic skincare with our Pure Red Sandalwood Powder (Lal Chandan / Rakta Chandana / लाल चंदन पाउडर). Derived from the heartwood of the Pterocarpus santalinus tree, this vibrant red powder has been cherished in traditional Indian beauty rituals for centuries for its remarkable effects on skin complexion and clarity.
