Our Marula and Frankincense facial serum has been especially formulated in-house by our team of chemists, cosmetic safety professionals, beauty therapists and medical practitioners.
The long-lasting 30ml dropper bottle of our unique serum will smooth fine, dry wrinkles, lift and plump the skin and fight the signs of ageing. The serum harnesses the power of Marula Oil and Frankincense, both known to visibly smooth the skin, counteract the signs of ageing and promote a youthful glow. Fast-absorbing and non-comedogenic, the serum is suitable for all skin types - dry, combination, oily and acne-prone and is so lightweight and swiftly absorbed that it can be applied under makeup.
We recommend that you pair this product with a gua sha facial massage, an ancient practice which provides:
- improved circulation
- enhanced lymphatic drainage
- improved absorption of the serum
- reduction in skin stress and fine lines
For best results, use the jade Gua Sha tool to gently massage the serum into your skin, following your face's natural contours to encourage detoxification and a lifted, sculpted appearance. For tips on using your gua sha, read our helpful blog HERE
Marula Oil is made by pressing the seeds of the native African Sclerocarrya Birrea bush, it is rich in fatty acids including omega-6 and omega-9 that reduce inflammation, promote collagen production and strengthen the skin barrier. Marula oil is also a good source of Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant, which protects skin from free radical and pollution damage.
Frankincense (boswellia carterii) oil has been used to enhance skin health for over 5,000 years. Boswellic acid, found within frankincense, has been subject to scientific studies and cited as a UV inhibitor, providing protection against sun damage. It has also been found to be helpful in counteracting the effects of photo-ageing, in particular improving skin texture and smoothing fine lines.
As with all our products, the new facial serum is a delight to use and comes in eco-friendly, plastic-free packaging. It is easily incorporated into a morning or evening skincare routine or applied during the day as a nourishing interim boost. Simply apply to clean, dry skin before moisturising.
