Frankincense Boswellic Acid Extract Powder

Frankincense Boswellic Acid Extract Powder

This is a powdered extract made from frankincense resin, the aromatic sap that hardens on the trunks of frankincense trees. Our batches have come from wildcrafted resin harvested in Oman and in Somalia.

The powder is slightly grainy and blends easily into oil-based carriers. It is moderately soluble in lipids and in ethanol, so oils, butters, and balms are its natural home. The aroma is resinous and earthy, with a sweet, warm, radiant quality that lingers. Frankincense has long been a favorite for meditation and relaxation, for staying focused and present, and for skin care blends where you want something gentle and grounding.

This batch of Frankincense Boswellic Acid Extract Powder comes from Somalia, where the resin is wildcrafted from trees growing in their native dryland habitat. The raw resin is harvested and processed into a fine powdered extract, keeping the material close to its original form rather than distilling it. Batch FAP-102-35% was produced on January 12, 2026, and carries a shelf life through January 2032.

As a resin extract rather than a volatile oil, this powder is valued for the triterpenoid fraction naturally present in frankincense resin, the boswellic acids reflected in the batch designation. It blends readily into balms, butters, and other base formulations where a resinous, grounding character is welcome.

Every batch we bring in is independently verified, and the analytical documentation and certificate of analysis for this exact lot are available to download here. You see what we see.
