By Janine Hughes


Some beauty secrets go centuries back. Frankincense oil is a great product to use for ones skin care or anything else even relating to skin. It can be used on rashes, scrapes, burns and even infected sores. Many people are using it to help with premature aging as well as any skin that has been damaged by the environment.

There are four species of these trees that make the true resin and they are also available in different grades. These grades depend entirely on the time that they are harvested. All resin is sorted by hand so as only the best is used.

The resin is stripped from the hardy trees that have an appearance of being untidy and left to bleed out. Given time this resin will harden and is then referred to as tears. Each group will produce a different resin. Diverse soils and climates that they are found in can also cause the resin to vary even amongst the same kind of tree. In some instances these trees have been found to grow out of rock cropping and tend to have a spherical swelling on the trunk.

In this day and age it is often used with different essential oils. They are natural liquids with aromatic compounds found in many different plants. Each plant is in need of this in order to survive. All of these oils are very clean and gets absorbed immediately into the skin. The pure kinds are transparent and the colour can range from very clear to a deep and crisp blue.

Aromatherapy is considered an alternative medicine and uses plant oils as well as plant materials with aromatic substances. It helps to change ones reasoning, mental, physical wellbeing as well as helping to change mood swings. It is usually given through massage, inhalation, topical application and being immersed in water.

These beetles have extremely long antenna compared to their bodies. There are over twenty thousand different species and about seven of those are considered to be pests. The larvae bore into the wood which cause great damage if not treated. They have also been known to damage houses causing the wood to become weak and collapse.

To make mix the coconut oil, salt and clay in a bowl and adding water a little at a time work with a spoon until a cream is produced. Add the peppermint to the mixture and mix thoroughly. Store in a container and use a small amount for both adults and children.

The oils come in different types and the quality is graded on the age, shape, purity as well as the aroma and colour it produces. The higher grades are considered to be the silver and Hojari. More than eighty percent is produced in Somalia while others are obtained in Southern Arabia. The oil is obtained by a method known as steam distillation and the smell of the smoke is a product of pyrolysis.
