Elemi Facial Elixir | Powerful Rejuvenating Plant-Based Oil Blend Elemi Resin-Infused Jojoba, Marula, Moringa, Bakuchi, Argan, Baobab, Rosehip, Raspberry Seed, Tamanu, Squalane, Sea Buckthorn, and Vitamin E Oils If you're like me, you have never heard of elemi. Unless you work in the world of perfumery, I'm sure the two of you haven't met. A relative of frankincense and myrrh, elemi (Canarium luzonicum) is an oleoresin collected from the Canarium tree of Africa and the Philippines. This fragrant resin has quietly occupied a niche in the perfume industry for centuries. Its aroma is a REAL showstopper - so intriguing that it's virtually impossible to walk by because it just stops you in your tracks. Elemi's aroma is like an intoxicating blend of fresh lemon, pine, black pepper and spice. When I was melting the resin into the oil, I could not stop going in to smell it! But where elemi really shines is in what it does for your skin! How lucky can we get - great for the skin AND smells like heaven too? Traditionally, natives to its region refer to elemi as "Resin of Light." They often incorporate it into local folk medicine for skin problems for its regenerative, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial powers. Its benefits include: Anti-aging, including reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving elasticity and complexion radiance Helping the skin eliminate toxins Combating acne, blemishes and other skin irritations Improving skin's moisture retention This facial oil blend uses elemi-infused jojoba oil as its base, but it gets even better! 12 Magical Oils The power of this facial blend comes from the addition of 11 more plants that love to love your face. The following nutrient-packed cold-pressed oils work together synergistically with the elemi to strengthen and rejuvenate your skin.
