Product Description

For deep tranquility and natural healing that balances and renews, try Frankincense Serrata Essential Oil. With a medium-strength aroma that’s warm, balsamic, spicy-sweet, and woody, Frankincense Serrata is one of the most popular essential oils for aromatherapy, natural products, and skincare. It’s a gentle yet powerful ingredient that improves all skin types.

Also known as Shallaki, Olibanum Tree Oil, or Alibanum Indicum, Frankincense Serrata evokes the healing powers of the earth while using powerful bioactive plant compounds to reduce infection and support cellular rejuvenation. It’s a rich source of antioxidants called alpha pinenes, which imbue Frankincense Serrata oil benefits with the ability to reduce chronic inflammation, boost collagen production, and soothe body aches.

This variety of Frankincense is also high in alpha-thujene, a compound that neutralizes bacteria, viruses, and fungi and mold. Try adding Frankincense Serrata to your household cleaning products to sanitize surfaces and purify your space. As a bonus, the soothing aroma will fill your home with grounding energy that creates a more peaceful atmosphere.

Other Frankincense Serrata benefits include enhancing focus and concentration. Diffuse this essential oil while working from home, studying, meditating, or any time you need a little help reducing mental distractions. The pleasing scent of Frankincense helps you feel connected to nature and melts away stress.
