About Red Sandalwood (Surkh Sandal)

Red Sandalwood comes from the heartwood of a tree native to South India, historically valued not for fragrance (unlike white sandalwood) but for its striking natural red pigment and traditional applications. It has long been used in Ayurvedic and Unani skincare traditions, typically mixed with water, rose water, or other natural ingredients to create traditional face packs and topical pastes. It has also historically been used as a natural dye for textiles and in some traditional ceremonial applications across South Asian culture.

Sourcing & Sustainability Note

Red Sandalwood is classified as an endangered species due to historical overharvesting, and its trade is regulated under international frameworks such as CITES, as well as forest protection laws in its native range. We source our Red Sandalwood Powder through established, regulated trade channels. Buyers — particularly those exporting, reselling on regulated marketplaces, or operating in jurisdictions with specific timber/wildlife trade laws — are encouraged to verify compliance with relevant regulations for their region.

Red Sandalwood Powder is intended primarily for topical (external) use.
