While it is well-known that African Botanics has clearly distinguished itself for having created among the finest luxury beauty oils on the market, you may not yet be aware that they have likewise created one of the most outstanding nighttime serums that I have ever experienced. In fact, this potent, antioxidant-rich serum is a game-changer that effectively treats a multitude of skin concerns while you sleep. 

The lightweight, and fast absorbing, gel-like serum is filled with an array of healthy, antioxidant-rich botanicals, highly effective Swiss Garden Cress Liposomes and Peptides, Retinol, Resveratrol and Green Sea Algae– to name but a few of their potent, carefully selected ingredients. African Botanics Resurrection Cell Recovery Serum increases collagen synthesis, accelerates skin cell-turnover, plumps and reduces the appearance of fine lines, improves elasticity and tone, deeply nourishes and hydrates skin and it reveals luminous, youthful skin. 

My skin appears refreshed, luminous, even in texture and skin-tone, lifted and ultra-hydrated. I simply massage a small amount into my face, neck, décolleté and under eye area and go to sleep, and when I awaken my skin appears as though I had a serious rejuvenating, anti-aging facial and peel. For the most incomprehensibly potent duo, I follow by using African Botanics Fleur d'Afrique Intensive Recovery Oil (Reviewed HERE), and once you try these two together, there really is no turning back. This serum is suitable for all skin types, and is non-comedogenic.
