Emotionally it is said to be grounding and calming, effective in anti-anxiety blends. It is a wonderful ingredient in any room scenting blend, blending well with basil, black pepper, cajeput, cedarwood, eucalyptus, frankincense, ginger, lavender, lemon, myrtle, niaouli, peppermint, pine, rosemary, rosewood, tea tree, or thyme. It is believed to have a centering effect on the emotions. It can slow respiration, thus helping your body calm and center itself. A great oil for asthma or chest congestion.
Frankincense can act as an expectorant, soothing congestion while also relaxing breathing.
In skin care, Frankincense is a wonderful oil to blend into facial creams or oils for aging skin. This Frankincense has a delightfully sweet, sparkling aroma. I've found that it blends well with Orange and Neroli. It tends to 'soften' any sharply scented oil blended with it and seems to blend well with any of the woods, or spices. This is the nicest Frankincense I have ever experienced, a true delight to the senses.
