Elemi

Plant family: Burseraceae

Latin name: Canarium lazonicum

Origin: Philippines

Plant part (steam distilled): Gum resin

Connection with Divine. The word Elemi comes from an Arabic phrase meaning "as above, so below." As the sister of Frankencinse, she brings stillness, quiet, and peace. 

I add her to cane sugar and avocado oil shower scrub I make to help with my dry skin. She smells great and is a less expensive option to blend with a carrier oil.
