Aromatherapy Properties:
(Uses)
Our Benzoin
is a 100% pure Benzoin Resinoid which is alcohol extracted from Benzoin
tears. There is no addition of DPG (Dipropylene Glycol) or anything else. It
is semi-liquid because the procedure is to stop the solvent evaporation
before the end, leaving around 5% of the alcohol in it in order to keep it
semi-liquid. Most of the Benzoin Resinoid you find on the market is cut at
50 % with DPG. There’s no DPG in ours. NOTE: This is a very thick, dark
colored product. It’s up to the customer to figure out how to work with this
product and/or incorporate it into their recipe. Warming the jar or bottle
may help, as well as dissolving it in jojoba or vodka.
Alcohol (NOT
solvent) extracted resin/tear, China. The benzoin tree produces a white sap
which becomes hard and brittle, and yellowish-brown in color. The bark is
deliberately cut, causing the sap to run, and it is collected from the bark.
It's made up mainly of Benzoic acid, Benzoate and some vanillin. It's used
as an expectorant and pulmonary antiseptic, for acne, eczema, and psoriasis.
It's used as a preservative in food. Some "experts" consider it a skin
sensitizer but we don't know what proof they use to substantiate this claim
as other "experts" recommend this product for acne, eczema and psoriasis.
One very famous acne medication has "benzoin" as part of its name.

General Safety Information: Do not take any oils
internally without consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner.
Do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated
essences onto the skin. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage,
have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the
proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme
caution when using oils with children and give children only the gentlest
oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified
aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. A skin patch test
should be conducted prior to using an oil that you've never used before.
