Myrrh Resin

Hailing from the Middle East and Africa, myrrh resin, a millennial healing treasure, —is a natural aromatic resin exuded by Commiphora species (family Burseraceae). Paired with frankincense as the "two aromatic treasures", it embodies the sacred rituals and traditional healing wisdom of ancient Egypt and Babylon. Nurtured by the arid, barren soils of its core producing regions (Somalia, Ethiopia, Oman), this resin boasts rich fragrance and high bioactivity. Once a precious spice reserved for royal sacrifices, it is now a rare, sought-after ingredient in modern high-end fragrances, aromatherapy products and niche skincare lines.

✨ Crafted Harvesting

We harvest resin from native myrrh trees aged 10+ years, using traditional manual methods: shallow trunk incisions let pale yellow resin seep out naturally. Oxidized into reddish-brown solids, the resin is hand-graded, screened for impurities, and air-dried naturally. With no chemical solvents, high heat, synthetic fragrances, preservatives or mineral oils involved, the process fully preserves active ingredients like boswellic acids and terpenes, achieving 100% purity. Gentle and pure in texture, it is safe for external application on sensitive skin.
Irregular lumps ranging from reddish-brown to dark brown, with a soft sheen on the surface. Firm yet brittle, it crumbles effortlessly into a fine powder, revealing a smooth, delicate cross-section. The fragrance is opulent and lingering: anchored by soothing woody notes, enhanced with a subtle resinous bitterness, and rounded off with a warm, comforting finish. Layered and utterly distinctive, it releases gentle smoke and a tranquil, pervasive aroma when burned—offering a dual experience of sensory pleasure and spiritual repose.

💫 Multi-dimensional Nourishment

Rich in bisabolol, flavonoids and unsaturated fatty acids, myrrh resin provides skin repair, anti-inflammatory relief and therapeutic benefits. Ideal for aromatherapy, skincare and meditation, it works especially well for mature and sensitive skin.
  • Skin Repair: Myrrhic acid gently repairs the damaged lipid barrier, boosts skin cell repair, improves dryness, roughness, fine lines and wrinkles, enhances skin resistance, relieves seasonal sensitivity and tightness, and restores skin to a stable, hydrated state.
  • Anti-inflammatory: Natural active ingredients inhibit mild inflammatory responses, alleviate redness and swelling from acne and minor wounds, and gently condition the skin. Ideal for targeted care of acne-prone, sensitive, or compromised skin.
  • Mental Wellness: Its calm, mellow aroma relieves stress, soothes irritability, and eases anxiety and insomnia. Burned or diffused, it creates a tranquil, serene atmosphere ideal for meditation and full physical and mental relaxation.

📝 Versatile Luxurious Fragrance

Boasting a pure, universally compatible texture, it shines in aromatherapy, skincare blending, and targeted repair scenarios, seamlessly merging the elegance of ritual with down-to-earth practicality.
  1. Meditation: Place 1~2 small myrrh resin pieces in an aromatherapy burner. Its fragrance fills the air when heated; pair with frankincense and sandalwood to boost a serene vibe, perfect for meditation, yoga or peaceful study time.
  2. Skincare: Grind myrrh resin to a fine powder. Blend a small amount with jojoba oil or facial cream, or incorporate 1–2 drops of myrrh essential oil. Massage gently onto face and neck for enhanced repair and anti-aging effects. Adjust dosage upward moderately for dry skin types.
  3. Targeted Repair: Mix a small amount of resin powder with base oil to form a paste. Apply it to pimples and minor wounds for gentle anti-inflammatory relief and damaged skin repair; it may also be used on lips to alleviate dryness and discomfort.

🌿 Harmony with Nature

Guided by sustainable harvesting and fair trade principles, we collaborate with local tribes in producing areas to strictly control harvesting frequency and incision depth, protecting myrrh tree trunks, ensuring their natural growth, and preserving local traditions. Each piece of myrrh resin embodies desert gifts and millennia of craftsmanship, offering time-honored natural luxury through its pure aroma and restorative power.
