Ingredient Spotlight: Why We Use Whole Frankincense Resin in Evening Gold Facial Oil
Frankincense has been cherished for centuries for its therapeutic and skincare benefits, often distilled into essential oil. However, we believe in harnessing the power of the whole plant resin in its purest form, infusing it into jojoba oil for maximum skin benefits. Here’s why this approach elevates our Evening Gold Facial Oil:
1. Gentler on the Skin
When using the whole plant resin, you get a gentler yet effective skincare solution. Essential oils, though potent, can sometimes cause sensitivity or irritation for delicate skin. Our resin infusion delivers the nurturing properties of frankincense without the risk of irritation.
2. Enhanced Holistic Benefits
The frankincense resin contains compounds like boswellic acids, which are known for their anti-inflammatory and healing properties. These components don’t appear in essential oils, meaning our resin infusion offers broader benefits for reducing inflammation and restoring skin’s vitality, especially for mature or damaged skin.
3. A Silky, Luxurious Texture
Infusing the resin into jojoba oil creates a rich, non-greasy texture that mimics skin’s natural oils. This provides deep hydration while maintaining a light, silky feel on the skin. It’s perfect for evening use, nourishing your skin as you rest.
4. Sustainable and Thoughtful Sourcing
Using the whole resin minimizes waste and ensures we get the full array of benefits that frankincense offers. Plus, we source our frankincense sustainably, ensuring respect for the environment and ethical harvesting practices.
Our commitment to using whole plant ingredients like frankincense resin is part of our philosophy of creating high-quality, artisan skincare that’s effective, sustainable, and luxurious. If you’re looking for a facial oil that supports firming, renewal, and a healthy glow, Evening Gold is your perfect match.
