Frankincense is renowned as one of the most prized and precious essential oils. In addition to its notoriety in the New Testament, the Babylonians and Assyrians would burn Frankincense in religious ceremonies and the ancient Egyptians also used Frankincense resin for everything from perfume to salves for soothing skin.
This centuries-old knowledge contributes to the modern uses of Frankincense today. Its soothing and beautifying properties are used to revitalise the appearance of the skin and help reduces the appearance of imperfections when applied topically.
When inhaled or diffused Frankincense essential oil may support feelings of peace, relaxation, satisfaction and overall spiritual and emotional wellness.
