Omumbiri Essential Oil is a steam-distilled, wild-crafted oil from the aromatic resin of Commiphora wildii, harvested from sun-drenched Namibian deserts. Known locally for millennia, this wild Myrrh resin has traditionally been blended with fats and ochre for skin care and ceremonial use.

This oil exudes a warm, amberous lemon-balsam scent that leans more toward frankincense than traditional myrrh, and is rich in skin-soothing sesquiterpenes, providing deep hydration, toning, and softening effects.


Benefits

  • Skin Health: Hydrates, softens, and tones; excellent for dry spots and stressed skin.

  • Aromatherapy: Use in diffusers, saunas, or salt pipes for relaxation and meditation.

  • Hair & Scalp: Add to carrier oils for conditioning and scalp nourishment.

  • Natural Perfume: Unique amber-balsam scent for personal fragrance.

  • Community Support: Harvested by Ovahimba women in Namibia; profits return to local communities.


How to Use

  • Topical: Dilute in jojoba or other carrier oils for face, hair, or body care.

  • Bath: Add a few drops for a restorative, aromatic soak.
