Balm of Gilead Anointing Oil

This aromatic blend of essential oils is scented with the heady, sweet fragrance of Rose of Sharon, and enriched with the gold-colored sap extracted from the bark of balsam trees. Native to the Gilead region (an eastern territory of ancient Israel, now in Jordan), balsam trees and their resin are known for their antiseptic and analgesic properties. Perked up with invigorating mint, this anointing oil smells good and feels wonderful on the skin.

Anointing oils use olive oil as a carrier. Olive oil is rich in vitamins E and K: vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant which helps fight free radical damage. When applied directly to skin, it helps your body fight visible signs of aging, and is intensely moisturizing.

This oil is available in a range of sizes.

The New Jerusalem offers an enticing selection of anointing oils, which have been created from a wide selection of natural, pure essential oils and olive oil harvested in Jerusalem and Judea. Free from synthetic substances, these high-quality pure oils boast medicinal, healing properties and wonderful fragrances.
