All About Copaiba Essential OIl
Copaiba essential oil is one of my favorites. I do have several essential oils that I try to make sure to have a back up bottle on hand and Copaiba is one of them. Copaiba resin is tapped directly from trees (copaifera reticulata, C. langsdorfii, or multijuga) in Brazil before being steam distilled.
Its topical applications are many and it has a calming aromatic scent that can be Inhaled directly or used in a diffuser. It is a mild essential oil, which is also great topically after exercise, or upon waking. Add to your Mix 2-4 drops in a carrier oil and apply to face, neck, arms, hips, stomach, and thighs to maintain a healthy appearance. You may even want to try rubbing a couple of drops into your hair or scalp before or during shampooing. Copaiba has also been known to amplify the affects of other essential oils when applied topically with or over the top of other essential oils.
