Oleoresin (Pseudotsuga Menziesii Resin) is an Oregon balm made from the bark exudate of Pseudotsuga Menziesii, the common Douglas fir, also known as Douglas fir. The bark exudate contains resins and essential oils. The exudate is used in cosmetic formulations. It acts as a film former (forms a film on skin, hair or nails when applied), hair conditioner (makes hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume), skin care products and astringents.
