✨ Precious Resin Extract, True Aroma Preserved
We select premium benzoin resin from Thailand and Laos. The viscous resin naturally exuded from tree trunks is hand-harvested and immediately processed at low temperatures. Using food-grade ethanol as a mild solvent for extraction, we avoid high heat that would damage heat-sensitive active ingredients. After multiple solvent removal and filtration purification steps with solvent residues meeting international safety standards, the final extract retains pure resin aroma and original nutrients. It is 100% pure, free of synthetic fragrances, preservatives and mineral oils, with a gentle skin-friendly texture safe for sensitive skin topical use.
This amber-to-dark brown extract boasts a thick, smooth texture with low fluidity. It absorbs deeply into the skin without greasy residue. Its rich, warm aroma opens with intense sweetness and resinous notes, layered with subtle vanilla undertones, and softens into a long-lasting, soothing finish. Distinctive and calming, it creates a serene, elegant ambiance, making it an ideal aromatic skincare ingredient for fall and winter.
