Clearwater Apothecary is one of the leading suppliers of Frankincense Oil – Serrata is a pure essential oil steam-distilled from the gum of Boswellia serrata, a hardy tree that is indigenous to the Middle East. The resin extracted from the trunk begins as milky-white sap which hardens into a gum resin and scraped off for steam-distillation. This variety of frankincense has a harsher aroma than the popular Carterii species, carrying a strong spicy balsamic note. Frankincense Serrata is sought after for meditation and treatment by wellness centers, spas, and yoga centers for its perceived therapeutic properties. Frankincense Essential Oil is non-toxic, non-irritant and non-sensitizing.
Common Uses: The oil's aromatic properties are said to promote feelings of relaxation, peace, and overall wellness. It's also thought that frankincense can help support cellular function, so it's often used to soothe skin and reduce the appearance of blemishes
Caution: Avoid use during pregnancy.
