Benjoin Siam Tincture Uses:
Primarily used in incense making and as a fixative in perfumery.
The warm balsamic fragrance of benjoin resin is familiar to most people, and this ancient aromatic has been used in almost every culture around the world since records began in both incense and medicine. Its medicinal use throughout history is legendary, and the aromatic resin from the tree still remains in high regard within the world of perfumery and medicine.
The tincture has been traditionally used to protect the skin. A prized 19th century beauty tonic called ‘virgin’s milk’ was made with tincture of benzoin and rose water.
We use tincture of benzoin in those of our products designed to calm and soothe the skin, such as facial cleanser and cream hand and body lotion.
Benzoin is a natural preservative, which makes it a great ingredient for low-preservative cosmetic formulas.
Because benjoin is a resin, it forms a protective film over the skin, which stops it from losing moisture. This helps protect very dehydrated and mature skins and improves skin condition.

(Styrax Tonkinensis Tincture)
1. PRODUCT DISCRIPTION.
Benzoin is the fragrant, resinous exudation secreted by a tree – the Styrax tonkinensis – after an attack by a parasite or an incision in the trunk. In September, the styrax growers manually tap the tree, making multiple incisions on the trunks of mature trees to encourage exudation of the precious gum. After only a few weeks, the white, brittle tears of benzoin flow down the trunk. Oxidation of the tears, caused by contact with the air, will give them a superficial, orangey-brown color. Harvesting the tears is often from December to January.
Styrax tonkinensis comes mainly from the northern highlands Vietnam and Laos between 800 and 1,600meters’ altitude. This large tree was identified by botanist L. Pierre, who named it Anthostyrax before it was renamed Styrax tonkinensis. It is also called Benzoin Siam, Benzoin Vietnam or Benjoin Laos Larmes
The sweet, vanilla-like smell of benzoin is very popular in gourmand perfume compositions.
Benjoin Tincture is produced from Benjoin siam gum by solvent distillation method.
