Frankincense is one of the most valuable skin care hydrosols for toning and anti-aging. This hydrosol comes from a certified organic USA artisan distiller that imports the Boswellia carterii resin used to produce this remarkable hydrosol.
The toning and antiseptic qualities of Frankincense hydrosol coupled with its resinous sweet woody aroma make an awesome after shave facial tonic for men. Our convenient atomizer bottles are perfect to mist on legs after shaving. For an ultra-luxurious facial mist consider blending with Sandalwood, Black Spruce or Neroli hydrosols.
Highly recommended to mist directly on face two or three times a day to combat signs of aging, large pores, and uneven complexion. Renown hydrosol author Suzanne Catty notes in her assessment of Frankincense that it can also be used as a gargle for mouth and gum infections.
