Second, look out for those claiming to be endorsed by a celebrity.  Just because they are holding a bottle that they may have gotten in a gift basket or because they happen to have a stock photo of them does not mean that they use or endorse that product.  It doesn’t mean anything actually, and even if they have a commercial using them and their words, they paid for it.  So they definitely don’t use it.

Third, watch out for the “free trial offers.”  They claim to be miracle creams that they are not, and they rely on those free trial offers to get you into an auto ship program after about 30 days or so.  Sometimes, they only give you 14 or 15 days from ship date.  But either way, they have to do this, because otherwise, you would never actually reorder their product.

Our final word is that there are various methods.  If they offer you a trial sometimes they even say they are conducting studies in your area.  Either way, you should watch out for these types of products.

Anyway, in terms of your skin and the oils that it can be found in, sandalwood actually improves dry and cracked skin.  It draws natural oils to the surface and makes itself a valuable ingredient in multiple types.  It can also be used as an antiseptic, meaning that it could beneficial in soaps, acne treatments, beauty creams, and otherwise.  In short, sandalwood has all its benefits and many benefits of a general skincare product.  The thing that surprises me is that it kills bacteria with its particular aroma.  Most antiseptics, antibacterials, etc that work actually stink.  But hey, I guess the world is making turns in the right direction.
