Let me introduce to you, Neal’s Yard Remedies Frankincense Intense Lift Serum*.
Neal’s Yard Remedies Frankincense Intense Lift Serum* key ingredient is frankincense which is highly valued for its healing and therapeutic properties. This serum uses the highest grade of frankincense which is from Boswellia Sacra trees of Omani origin and contains three different types; Boswellia Sacra resin oil, gum extract and resin extract. They are listed in the medium of the ingredient list so I believe the concentration is enough to make a difference. Frankincense oil has antiseptic properties and is a powerful astringent which helps protect skin cells. It is also known to heals and fade scars and I’m surprised that not many beauty companies are using it in their products.
As I said earlier in the post, the serum has a thick texture however it spreads easily across the skin. It absorbs within seconds and does leave a slight tackiness to it which dissipates after a while. It layers beautifully under moisturizer and makeup and I have no problems with products pilling up on top of it. The only issue that I think others might have with it is the scent does linger for a few minutes. If you love therapeutic scents like me then it wouldn’t impose a problem, if not then you probably wouldn’t enjoy this as much.
One of the first things I noticed about this serum is it gives an instant firming effect to the skin. Initially I thought it would be a temporary effect but as the weeks passed, I noticed not only my skin looking smoother and brighter, it also appeared firmer and the effect didn’t fade away even after I washed my face. I also tried gently pressing my face with my fingers and I could feel a slight bounciness with my skin.
This is my first skincare that I have tried from Neal’s Yard Remedies and I have a strong feeling that it will not be my last. I have been using serums in my routine ever since I can remember so it’s pretty hard to impress me but this serum definitely exceeded all my expectations and more. I also think it will suit all skin types as it feels light on the skin but I recommend giving this a whiff first before purchasing.
If you are looking for an amazing firming and lifting serum which contains plenty of organic and natural ingredients then I highly suggest checking out Neal’s Yard Remedies Frankincense Intense Lift Serum*. We all know chocolate is food for our soul (and waist line but we will ignore that for now), this serum is a healthy diet for your skin.
