Frankincense Essential Oil is steam distilled from the resin of the Boswellia carterii tree, of the Burseraceae family, and is also known as Olibanum. The word is derived from the French franc encens, meaning luxuriant, and it was, together with myrrh, the first gum to be used as incense. The tree is indigenous to the Middle East, and is said to exist in natural bonsai formation in that dry land. Frankincense is said to symbolise divinity.

This oil is the most popular in aromatherapy for its calming properties. It is said to help heal wounds and prevent scars. It is used to tone the face, remove wrinkles and prevent stretch marks in cosmetic products. Frankincense Essential Oil has been used to relieve anxiety, stress, asthma, bronchitis, laryngitis and heavy coughing. It is a general tonic to the uterus, has a calming effect during labour and helps to stem heavy menstruation. It is most useful during meditation. Avoid during pregnancy.

The ancient Egyptians burnt frankincense as a sacred incense and used it as a face mask. They ground the charred resin into a powder called kohl, used to highlight the eyes. Kohl lined eyes are commonly seen in Egyptian art. The first record of frankincense use was found in an inscription on the tomb of Egyptian Queen Hatshepsut from the 15th century BC. It was used to fumigate the sick, to banish evil spirits.
