What is the key ingredient in amber? What is amber made from?
The Baltic amber-succinite – is fossilized resin produced by plants 40 – 50 million years ago. In nature the resin would have been used by plants as an antibiotic against viruses, a substance healing cuts or a plaster for wound dressing. Now fossilized, its healing properties have been captured and are released once the resin has been warmed by the skin.
