Galbanum Essential Oil
Details
Galbanum Essential Oil is found in many creams and lotions. Galbanum Oil can diminish stretch marks and scars. It affects production of sebum from the sebaceous glands and keeps skin smooth and soft while it speeds up growth of new skin tissues and cells. It improves circulation and relieves cramps and muscle pulls when used in a massage oil. There are many species but only two major types. One is Levant which is liquid and soft and the one used for essential oil distillation. The Levant or crude is a dark amber liquid with a green balsamic scent. The other is Persian which is solid and hard. The deterpenized oil is called galbanol. A resinoid is also produced and used as a fixative in fragrances. Galbanum produces a true oleoresin.
