Recognized as one of the most valuable and precious essential oils, frankincense has extraordinary health benefits. In addition to their notoriety in the New Testament, the Babylonians and Assyrians burned incense in religious ceremonies and the ancient Egyptians used frankincense resin for everything from perfume to soothing skin ointments. This centuries-old knowledge contributes to modern Frankincense applications today. Its smoothing and beautifying properties are used to rejuvenate the skin and help reduce the appearance of blemishes when applied topically. As the king of oils, frankincense is known for its healthy cellular functions when used internally. When inhaled or diffused, incense promotes feelings of peace, relaxation, satisfaction, and general well-being.
