Yes Sister you heard me correctly. Botox in a bottle. And what's wicked about this discovery is that it's nature's botox. An 100% natural, non-invasive liquid gold that will totally blow your skirt up (and plump up your skin). No needles required. A 100% natural beauty product that softens and smoothes fine lines, slows down the signs of aging, boosts collagen production, refines and improves the skin texture. All sing hallelujah, sing it, sing hallejujah, sing it girlfriend ...meet Mohi Everlasting Facial Elixir 24k Gold.
For me the temptation to go down the injectables road is immense. I flip and flop "should I, shouldn't I" and these feelings hit fever pitch after I've spent hours editing a makeup "how to" video ... endless minutes staring at my deep lines ... they quite literally become all I can see. Let me get this straight, no judgement at all if you've done the injectables - good on you girl - I'm a firm believer in whatever floats your boat is right for you. Botox is prolific as the pressure to remain younger looking and for many professional women over 40 that pressure to remain relevant in the workplace is intense.
So here at Secrets from a Beauty Insider we're always on the hunt for non-invasive alternatives either to accompany your injectables or instead of.
This product is a gem.

MY EXPERIENCE
LEFT We use Mohi Everlasting Facial Elixir 24K Gold in our Masterclasses / MIDDLE Natures Botos in our Masterclass Goodie Bags / RIGHT My "before" photo
Test-driving this 100% natural, clean beauty treat, my skin was left feeling "plump", deeply hydrated, smoother and firmer. And yep, I'm glowing.
Now I'm prone to breakouts, my skin can be quite reactive and sensitive. Mohi Everlasting Facial Elixir 24K is rich - jam packed with incredible oils - so I used it as a treatment twice a day, 3 times a week for the first week. For the best results use twice daily (I found I needed to build up to this over a period of 2 weeks). The Mohi Everlasting Facial Elixir paired with the Gua Sha tool has a detoxifying effect on your skin, so you may experience some breakouts. This is temporary and settled down after a few days.
BONUS: I used a Gua Sha Tool to maximise the effect of the elixir. This ancient beauty tool promotes collagen production, increases lift in your facial muscles, improves lymphatic drainage and toxin release and creates a fresh, youthful glow in your skin. Full stop. Mad not to. Click here to read more.
BEST NEWS: The plumping effects are cumulative. The longer you use it, the better the result. Let's just say I'm addicted.
BEST SUITED TO: mature, normal, dry, dehydrated skin.
VALUE: It's not cheap but you wouldn't expect something that packs this much punch to be cheap, right? Using just 4 drops per use, one bottle goes a long way.
