Frankincense Gum Tears

Frankincense gum tears are a natural resin obtained from the Boswellia carter tree. It is traditionally used as incense by burning the gum tears on smoldering charcoal bricks. Frankincense gum has natural antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and astringent properties; it can be ground with a mortar and pestle and incorporated into creams, lotions and salves. This product can also be added to your cosmetics as a natural thickener. Due to the unique look of frankincense gum tears, add this product to botanical displays and potpourris along with other warm spices.
