Description and Uses of Balsam Peru:

Balsam Peru essential oil is extracted from the protective resin that exudes from the bark of the tree when it is wounded. The oil is used as a fixative and fragrance component in lotions, detergents, soaps, and other body care products. It has an exotic aroma which is anchoring, strengthening and imparts a rich, earthy scent to perfumes. Energetically, it is said to have stimulating as well as calming properties in times of stress.

Balsam Peru is a very thick oil and the reducer cap on the smaller bottles may need to be removed in order to extract. Gently warming the bottle in a double boiler may help as well.

As with all of our essential oils (unless clearly stated), this Balsam Peru is 100% pure, undiluted essential oil.

Cautions:

Balsam Peru essential oil may cause skin sensitization.
