Description
Boswellia Serrata Extract comes from the Indian frankincense tree, a medium-sized tree native to India. The primary component used is the gum resin obtained from an incision in the trunk. The most biologically active constituents of the resin are boswellic acids, which are known for their potent anti-inflammatory properties. According to manufacturer data, this resin extract, rich in boswellic acids, is also a potent inhibitor of elastase, an enzyme that breaks down proteins like collagen, thereby helping the skin remain firm for longer. Furthermore, Boswellia Serrata Extract protects the skin's vital natural moisturizing factors, helping maintain a youthful appearance and elasticity.
