I Adore Frankincense Essential Oil !

Frankincense essential oil has some remarkable properties. You will always find it in my home.

The History of Frankincense

Did you know that there are over 50 Biblical references to Frankincense? Frankincense is considered the holy anointing oil in the Middle East, where it has been used in religious ceremonies for thousands of years.The ancient Egyptians used it in rejuvenation face masks. It was valued more than gold during ancient times, and only those with great wealth and abundance possessed it.  It is often diffused to enrich prayer, meditation, and enhance relaxation.

5 Amazing Uses for Frankincense Essential Oil

Note: . If you are unsure about the quality of your essential oils be very careful and do not ingest. Also, even though Frankincense is one of the safest oils (it’s a favorite of my children!), it’s always wise to put 2 to 3 diluted drops on the inside of your forearm to test for reaction, before using elsewhere on your body.

 

  1. Beautiful Skin

Frankincense essential oil is great for your skin.

  • tones and lifts skin, heals and protects skin (against  boils, wounds, acne and other skin maladies), fades and heals scars
  • promotes regeneration of healthy cells and keeps existing cells and tissues health
  • eliminates germs (either by burning resin or applying oil topically)

I use it these products:

       Day & Night face cream for normal-combi skin

      Day & Night face cream for acne skin

 

  1. Healthy Respiration

Support your respiratory system with Frankincense. Inhale directly from the bottle, diffuse, or rub into hands               and inhale. You can also rub some Frankincense essential oil on your toes or directly under the toes. Apply to               chest and/or spine. (dilutes)

Pure winter oil is the must have for the winter to help with breathing, coughing and colds. 

 

  1. Calming

I use Frankincense to calm my young children when they are sick, worried, or overwhelmed. I rub a few drops,             diluted with a carrier oil, on their chest and they always seem so peaceful afterward.

 

  1. Help Support Emotional Well-Being and Hormones

Frankincense has been use as an uplifting mood booster. Diffuse it and notice the difference.

 

  1. Help with Clarity and Focus

Used topically on the base of the neck or used aromatically can help with mental clarity and improve focus. You          can also place three drops in the palm of your hand, rub hands together to warm the oil, and then hold hands                around your hose and mouth while taking 3 deep breaths.
