Here's a basic recipe to make sandalwood paste for facial mask:

1. Prepare our superfine sandalwood powder, clean dry bowl and rose hydrosol. (Tips: Rose hydrosol can be replaced by mineral water or pure milk.)
2. Depending on the face area that you want to cover, take about 1 to 2 tablespoons of sandalwood powder into the bowl.
3. Add in the rose hydrosol little by little while stir continuously to create a smooth, thick paste. (Tips: do not add too much water at a time. The consistency should be such that it can be easily applied to the skin without dripping.)
4. Once the paste is ready, let it sit for a few minutes. This allows the sandalwood powder to absorb the liquid fully and thicken slightly.

How to use the sandalwood facial mask?

1. Cleanse your face thoroughly with a gentle face wash or cleanser.
2. Pat your face dry with a clean towel.
3. Apply an even layer of the sandalwood paste to your face, avoiding the area around your eyes.
4. Let the paste sit on your face until it dries completely.
5. Rinse off the paste using lukewarm water, gently massaging your face in a circular motion. This will help exfoliate your skin.
6. Pat dry your face with a soft towel.

Please understand that the aroma may slightly vary from batch to batch due to the wood's natural circumstances.
