I love frankincense!!!! Its one of my favourite smells. I put some on a cotton ball when I've had a miserable day and need to unload all the goo I've picked up during the day. I'll be going back to work soon so I guess I should buy some more
I've mixed it with geranium oil and used a few drops of that in a tsp of jojoba as a facial massage on myself, daily, for a few weeks before bed. I have that lovely hormonal acne under my chin and it helped make a marked difference in the amount. Of course, the smell on my face was wonderful (well, I thought so, but the DSH can't stand the smell of geranium essential oil ) and breathing it in helped me to sleep faster.
Its also supposed to help joint pain but I haven't used it for that yet.
