In addition to boswellic acid and its acetylates, they also isolated boswellic acid carbonyl derivatives, pentacyclic triterpenes, tetracyclic triterpenes, macrocyclic diterpenes and diterpenes. More than ten kinds of volatile oils, arabinose, etc.

Frankincense volatile oil can be used to prepare cosmetic fragrances. Frankincense extract promotes the activation of caspase, which is the core enzyme that causes cell apoptosis. Its inhibition means extending the life of cells and can be used in anti-aging cosmetics; frankincense extract It can activate peroxidase (body proliferator)-activated receptors, which means it has anti-inflammatory effects and can also prevent and treat skin redness; it can also whiten skin, regulate oily skin, and promote hair growth.
