It is what relaxes the look of expression lines and leaves the surface looking momentarily smoother and more taut — the botanical you can actually feel working.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrankincense resin\u003c\/strong\u003e carries boswellic acids, and infusion is the only method that extracts them. Steam distillation cannot: the molecules are too heavy to travel with the steam, so frankincense essential oil contains none at all. We macerate whole \u003cem\u003eBoswellia carterii\u003c\/em\u003e resin in organic jojoba over six weeks to bring that fraction across. It is the slower half of this formula — for skin that looks firmer and smoother over time, with more even texture and a better-looking suppleness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth are carried in a base of jojoba, castor, black seed and cold-pressed rosehip oil, chosen to nourish skin and help it look more even and radiant as it changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot an injection.
