Antibacterial/Anti-Acne
Fragrant gum resin that can be a skin irritant. There is little research showing it has any benefit for skin (Source: Healthnotes Review of Complementary and Integrative Medicine, www.healthwell.com/healthnotes/), although there is a small amount of research showing it may have antifungal and antibacterial properties (Source: Planta Medica, May 2000, pages 356–358).
