Skin Soothing & Healing with Myrrh Essential Oil

Myrrh is a very powerful essential oil from ancient times. The Arabian people used myrrh for many skin conditions, such as chapped skin and wrinkles. It was also listed by Hildegard of Bingen in her book of medicines. Some of the many uses are candida, ringworm, eczema, tooth/gum infections.

Myrrh, like frankincense, is a universal oil, offering benefits for numerous complaints and conditions. Indicated for bronchitis, dysentery, hyperthyroidism, oral and vaginal thrush, ulcers, and viral hepatitis. It has also been found to benefit asthma, athlete’s foot, coughs, eczema, gingivitis, gum infections, hemorrhoids, mouth ulcers, ringworm, wounds, wrinkles, and chapped or cracked skin. It is widely used today in oral hygiene products.

Myrrh is what is known as “a fixing oil.” Meaning it extends the therapeutic action of any other oil with which it is combined. Biblical people knew this and included myrrh as a significant portion of all their ointments. Myrrh was such a universally common ingredient of healing ointments at the time of Christ that the Greek word for “ointment” (muron) and the Greek word for “myrrh” (muron) were the same.

Myrrh is in many of the Young Living products, it’s one of the ingredients in ClaraDerm Spray (item #3750). I’ve experienced and seen some pretty amazing itching and wrinkle removing results from ClaraDerm Spray, the essential oils in this product are very powerful. The thing that gets me, is that it requires so little.

ClaraDerm Spray is especially helpful for skin irritation and itching. Gary Young created it for his wife after childbirth for use in the vaginal area. It helped to speed up the healing of the stressed skin. It was used with her second pregnancy. She wished she had it for the first pregnancy as she healed so much faster, and without discomfort.
