doTERRA Frankincense Stick + Naiofa – Experiences and Reviews
The frankincense has long been one of the most valued essential oils and resins: in ancient times it was part of rituals, healing practices and skincare. doTERRA has now combined this tradition with a modern, practical cosmetic product: the Frankincense + Naio Wood stick, which may become a new favourite in skincare.
What is the doTERRA Frankincense Stick + Naio Wood?
The stick is a 30 g practical body-care stick that is easy to apply, does not leave a greasy feel, and is made with natural ingredients.
Main ingredients:
- Frankincense essential oil– sourced from several Boswellia species and known for its skin-soothing and skin-supporting properties
- Naio Wood essential oil– rich in bisabolol, a skin-soothing active ingredient popular in cosmetics
- Fractionated Coconut Oil and sunflower wax– for easy application and skin protection
This combination can contribute to skin comfort, help soothe minor skin irritations and support healthy-looking skin.

My own experience (Gigi)
My little son (7 years old) came home after several days at summer camp with his facial skin in a terrible condition: the skin around his whole mouth was dry and cracked. When he got home, I took out the Frankincense Stick and applied it to his mouth twice a day for two days, while he continued to spend a lot of time outdoors, often in the sun — and I admit, we did not really use sunscreen on those days either. You can see the result in the photos:
Why is frankincense special in skincare?
Frankincense essential oil and extracts are the focus of numerous scientific studies:
- Anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing potential: several studies point to the possibility of supporting skin regeneration and modulating inflammatory processes
- Potential anti-aging effect: recent research has examined frankincense nano-formulations in slowing skin aging
- Important distinction: frankincense essential oil used for cosmetic purposes is not the same as Boswellia extracts used in pharmaceutical preparations, such as tablets
How to use the Frankincense Stick?
- For external use only: apply directly to the skin.
- Avoid the eyes and sensitive areas.
- Before using it for the first time, it is worth doing a patch test, for example on the forearm to rule out sensitivity.
