Frankincense Essential Oil

Frankincense Essential Oil is a warm, woody and slightly sweet-scented oil extracted from the resin of the Boswellia tree through steam distillation. It is a highly valued oil in skincare, aromatherapy and personal care products because of its soothing and rejuvenating properties. This oil is known to reduce signs of ageing, support clearer skin, calm the mind and add a rich fragrance to blends. It is commonly used in creams, serums, soaps, massage oils, candles and diffuser blends.
