INGREDIENT SPOTLIGHT

Frankincense Oil

Boswellia serrata

Drawn from the resin of hardy desert trees, frankincense has been prized for thousands of years in ritual, perfumery, and healing. In a facial blend, it brings both aromatic depth and a long-standing reputation for helping stressed skin recover its calm.

Primary Uses

Soothing, restorative, aromatic grounding

Doc's Fact

Frankincense is not pressed from fruit or seed. It begins as tree resin, tapped from the bark and slowly dried before distillation.

Origin & Habitat

Frankincense trees grow in arid regions across the Arabian Peninsula, northeast Africa, and India, clinging to rocky slopes where few other species can thrive. Their slow, resin-rich growth is part of what gives the oil its distinctive character.
