FAQs
What is Frankincense essential oil derived from?
Frankincense essential oil is derived from the resin of the Boswellia tree, specifically Boswellia Carterii, native to Somalia.
Can I apply Frankincense oil directly to my skin?
It is not recommended to apply essential oils directly to the skin. Always dilute Frankincense oil with a carrier oil (like jojoba, almond, or coconut oil) before topical application to prevent irritation.
Is this oil suitable for use during pregnancy?
No, Frankincense essential oil should not be used during the first two trimesters of pregnancy. Consult with a healthcare professional for guidance on essential oil use during pregnancy.
How should I use Frankincense oil for meditation?
Add 3-5 drops of Frankincense essential oil to an aromatherapy diffuser and inhale the calming aroma while meditating.
What does Frankincense essential oil smell like?
It has a characteristic spicy, woody, and light lemony aroma.
Is this product vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes, the product is 100% pure, natural, vegan, GMO-free, and cruelty-free.
How long is the shelf life of the essential oil?
When stored correctly in a cool, dark place, pure essential oils like Frankincense can maintain their quality for several years. However, potency may gradually decrease over time.
Troubleshooting
Oil is not diffusing effectively
Ensure the diffuser is clean and the water level is adequate. Try using fewer drops of oil, as sometimes too much can clog the mechanism. Check that the air vents are not blocked.
Skin irritation after topical application
Immediately wash the affected area with soap and water. Ensure the oil was properly diluted with a carrier oil, as neat application can cause irritation. Try a lower dilution or discontinue use if irritation persists.
Bottle cap is difficult to open
Ensure the cap is dry and try gripping it firmly. If still stuck, you can gently run the cap under warm water for a few seconds (avoid getting water into the oil itself) and then try opening it again.
