This week's oil focus is Frankincense 
It is one of the oils of the bible and well known for it's versatile uses. 
For skin- Frankincense oil is known to improve skin tone, heal cuts, scrapes, and infected skin. When combined with rose oil in either a cream or a carrier oil, it is extremely beneficial as a treatment for dry, mature, or wrinkled skin. It also helps to lessen the appearance of scarring. A good blend of oils for mature skin is four drops of frankincense blended with your night cream. Massage a small amount lightly into your face each night to get the best results.
Wound care- To heal a wound, blend four drops of frankincense with two drops of myrrh in a carrier oil. This blend will help combat infection.
Respiratory issues- Frankincense can help clear the lungs. It helps with shortness of breath, asthma, bronchitis, laryngitis, coughs and colds. To ease symptoms, add eight drops to a warm bath, or inhale four drops from a bowl of very hot water for ten minutes.
Arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) – Research by Cardiff University scientists found that frankincense can inhibit the production of key inflammatory molecules, helping prevent the breakdown of the cartilage tissue that causes these conditions.
Digestive disorders – Frankincense oil speeds up the secretion of gastric juices, bile, and acids, and stimulates peristaltic motion to allow food to move properly through your intestines.
