The resin will not necessarily dissolve completely into the oil, so remove any remaining particles and evaluate the finished product for compatibility, stability and skin tolerance. This is a formulation concept, not a treatment for cuts, infections or other skin conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Myrrh Extracts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMyrrh contains gum, resin and aromatic constituents that behave differently in water, oils and alcohol. A tincture or manufactured extract is not equivalent to the whole resin or its essential oil. Myrrh has a history in oral-care formulations, but preparations for use in the mouth require appropriate extract strength, quality controls and professional formulation; do not use an improvised raw-resin mouthwash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAromatic Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor traditional resin fragrance, warm a small amount using a suitable purpose-made resin burner in a well-ventilated space. Keep hot equipment away from combustible materials and never leave it unattended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrecautions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot recommended during pregnancy.\u003c\/strong\u003e Seek advice before concentrated use while breastfeeding or taking medication. Myrrh resin and extracts may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions. Patch test finished external formulations and avoid applying raw resin or untested extracts to wounds, eyes or mucous membranes. Do not swallow raw resin or use homemade mouth-rinse preparations without an appropriately validated formulation. Avoid direct smoke inhalation and keep away from children and pets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize \u0026amp; Packaging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e50g of natural Myrrh Resin in a resealable kraft pouch.
