Frankincense Carterii Oleo Extract with Boswellic Acids for Reactive Skin |

An oleo extract is an infusion of Boswellia Carterii resin powder into a carrier oil, capturing fat-soluble compounds like boswellic acids that are often missing from steam-distilled essential oils. The potent anti-inflammatory benefits come from the resin itself, not the essential oil. This method ensures you receive the full, active properties of frankincense.

This concentrated extract can be used in three primary ways: as a targeted facial serum (always patch test first), diluted with a carrier oil at up to a 1:5 ratio, or incorporated into your existing creams and balms. Due to its high concentration, dilution is recommended for most users to ensure skin compatibility and to make the bottle last longer.

Yes, it is specifically formulated to be compatible with reactive skin. The boswellic acids are known for soothing irritation and reducing redness, promoting skin equilibrium. We always recommend a patch test behind the ear or on the inner arm first, and the simple ingredient list—just the resin extract and fractionated coconut oil—minimizes potential irritants.

This oleo extract is intended for topical skincare use and is not marketed or tested for internal consumption. For internal wellness uses of boswellic acids, we recommend consulting with a qualified healthcare professional. Our focus is on delivering these potent compounds through your skincare ritual.

It has a warm, resinous, and authentic frankincense aroma inherent to the Boswellia Carterii resin—this is not an added perfume. The scent is present but will naturally mellow when blended with carrier oils or other skincare products, integrating beautifully into your routine.

A bottle's longevity depends on your use; a little goes far, especially when diluted. To preserve its potency, store it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. The meticulous six-week maturation process contributes to the extract's stability and shelf life.

The value lies in the slow, six-week infusion of resin powder, which delivers active boswellic acids most essential oils lack. Combined with ethical sourcing and a meticulous, filler-free process, this creates a uniquely potent extract for skin wellness. You are investing in the resin's full benefits, not a distilled derivative.
