Mama Bear's Frankincense Soap

[rongallant]

Frankincense is one of my favorite scents. So when I saw someone made a soap, I jumped on it. I believe this was a short run last Christmas. Not sure if you can still get it.

Anyways, the smell is not what I expected, more of a pine smell. Not at all unpleasant. Very woodsy.

I lathered it up, great lather, put some one and OUCH. My cheeks burn!!!

I am guessing this is form the oils. Are all of her soaps like this? Does anyone else have this issue? I want to try some other scents but don't want to melt my face.

I've used a few of her menthol soap. Currently I'm using awakening every other day and have never had an issue.

Some of the EOs are more potent than others. I've used Dragon's Tears and it works great. No negative affects to speak of. But I hear some of the scents can be a bit irritating to those with sensative skin or allergies to a particular oil.
