WHY WE STOCK IT
A chemotyped, wild-harvested frankincense essential oil from Kenya with a characteristic woody, spicy aroma and subtle vanilla-like notes. Unlike the Somalia and India varieties, this oil is intended for cosmetic aromatherapy to help soothe the skin.
 
BEST FOR
Adults looking for a properly diluted frankincense oil for cosmetic skin care, massage blends, personal fragrances or DIY body-care formulations. It is especially suited to those who enjoy a mild, incense-like aroma.
 
HOW TO USE IT
For topical use by adults, mix 1–2 drops into ½ teaspoon (2.5 mL) of vegetable carrier oil before applying to the skin. Perform a small patch test before broader use. Never apply undiluted.
 
MEDICATION & SAFETY CAUTIONS
For external and cosmetic use only. Do not swallow. Keep away from the eyes and mucous membranes and out of reach of children. If swallowed, contact a poison-control centre or seek urgent medical attention.
 
Do not use on children younger than three years or during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if you have asthma or epilepsy. Do not apply to inflamed, broken, irritated or sensitive skin or when dermatitis is present. Stop use if nausea, dizziness, headache, irritation or an allergic reaction occurs. Avoid exposing treated skin to sunlight.
 
INGREDIENT INFORMATION
Contains 100% pure and natural essential oil steam-distilled from the resin of wild Boswellia neglecta. Origin: Kenya. Chemotype: α-pinene. Also known as olibanum.
 
This Kenya variety is labelled for cosmetic use and skin soothing—not for the cold, cough or nerve-calming aromatherapy indications listed for Divine Essence’s Somalia and India frankincense oils.
