Question 1

What does the 5% dilution mean for frankincense essential oil?

Accepted Answer

A 5% dilution means the essential oil is blended into grapeseed carrier oil — in 10 ml, 0.5 ml is pure essential oil and 9.5 ml is carrier oil. This concentration is suitable for direct skin application without further blending.

Question 2

How should I use essential oil safely?

Accepted Answer

Never apply essential oil undiluted to skin. Always dilute to at least 2% in a vegetable carrier oil (e.g. sweet almond, jojoba) — approximately 4-6 drops per 10 ml carrier oil. For sensitive skin, perform a patch test first.

Question 3

What is frankincense essential oil used for in aromatherapy?

Accepted Answer

Frankincense is primarily used in diffusers for meditation, yoga, and creating a calming atmosphere. Diluted, it is also excellent for skin care and massage. Its effects are based on aromatherapy experience, not medical claims.

Question 4

Which diffuser is it compatible with?

Accepted Answer

Compatible with both ultrasonic (humidifying) diffusers and traditional oil burners (aroma lamps). Add 3-6 drops to the diffuser water reservoir, or 3-5 drops to the oil burner bowl with a little water.

Question 5

Can frankincense essential oil be blended with other oils?

Accepted Answer

Yes — frankincense pairs particularly well with sandalwood, myrrh, lavender, and bergamot. It also blends beautifully with citrus oils (orange, lemon) and rose essential oil.

Question 6

How long does an opened bottle last?

Accepted Answer

Once opened, stored in a cool dark place, it generally maintains its quality for 1-2 years. Citrus oils may lose their fragrance sooner (6-12 months), while resinous and woody oils can last even longer.
