Mastic Gum Products: Capsules, Toothpaste and Raw Mastic

In short: Chios mastic gum comes in many forms — raw resin tears, powder and capsules, mastic oil, ELMA chewing gum, toothpaste and cosmetics. Chew it as a natural gum, take it as a food supplement that contributes to the normal function of the digestive system, or use it in everyday oral and skin care.

The uses of mastic

The specific, unique properties of Chios mastic gum have led to its use in many products. Besides the resin itself — as tears, powder and oil — you'll also find toothpastes, skin- and body-care products and hair care. On the island of Chios, across Greece and even in Arabic countries, mastic is used as an ingredient in food, drinks and cosmetics — most famously in ELMA chewing gum.
