Applications
Benzoin is absorbed rapidly by the body when taken internally, and it can work as an antiseptic and eliminate toxins whilst restoring warmth, suppleness and vitality to muscles and joints affected by gout, arthritis, poor circulation and rheumatism.

Externally, benzoin is a particularly effective emollient for chapped skin and will cleanse and assist the healing of cuts, sores and ulcers. It can disperse nervous tension and bring a sense of profound and euphoric relaxation. The vanilla-like aroma is deliciously-sweet, intense and rich.
Safety Data
