Organic Frankincense Essential Oil
Part of our Ingredient Glossary — educational information about raw materials we may use in our products. We don't sell raw ingredients.
Frankincense is an aroma that feels ancient and sacred. When we open a bottle, the workshop fills with its complex scent—balsamic, woody, and resinous, with a surprisingly bright, lemony lift. It’s the timeless fragrance of spiritual spaces, and it immediately encourages a deeper, slower breath.
In skincare, Frankincense is a true treasure. It is one of the most effective essential oils for mature skin. It has a natural astringent property that helps to tone and tighten, diminishing the appearance of fine lines. It’s also known to reduce the appearance of scars and promote a smooth, even complexion.
Beyond its physical benefits, this oil is a powerful ally for the mind. Its grounding aroma is incredible for calming a busy, anxious brain. It helps to quiet mental chatter and promote a feeling of tranquility, making it a perfect ingredient for products used in a relaxing evening ritual.
Our organic Frankincense is sourced from India, where the resin 'tears' are carefully harvested from the Boswellia trees. The resin is then steam-distilled to capture its potent aromatic and therapeutic compounds. It’s an ingredient that truly nurtures both the skin and the spirit.
