Myrrh Save.

Myrrh essential oil is used in aromatherapy to relieve minor skin irritations and minor cuts, bruises, and burns, as well as for the symptomatic relief of acne and boils. IMPORTANT: THIS ESSENTIAL OIL IS NATURALLY THICK (High Viscosity). You shake the bottle, it drips very slowly or nothing comes out of the dropper, and you think: Something is wrong with my oil! Don't worry, this is normal (may vary from batch to batch) and is a sign of quality. So patience is required. HOW TO LIQUEFY A THICK ESSENTIAL OIL - Warm the bottle in your hand. Sometimes heating the bottle will not help, so please tap the bottom of the bottle as this may help release the oil. If this does not work:- Place the bottle in a small ziploc bag and squeeze out as much air as possible (to protect the label and to prevent the bag from floating), then place the bag in a larger container of hot (not boiling) water to warm gently for about 5-10 minutes. And there it is, out of the dropper!- This procedure will need to be repeated each time before use as the oil will become thick again.- Avoid using a microwave oven as the oil may overheat and spoil.- Tips and tricks: You can remove the dropper and use a pipette to extract drops or a toothpick, needle to extract the desired amount from the bottle.BOTANICAL NAME Commiphora myrrha (C. molmol)PART OF PLANT EXTRACTED ResinORIGIN KenyaCULTURAL Wild CHEMOTYPE CURZERENEAUOTHER NAME Myrrh Tree, Balsam EXTRACTION METHOD Steam distillationODOR Sweet, woody and aromaticCOLOR Amber yellow to brown
