Bio Botox gel to Combat Wrinkles! The secret behind the 52 year old Michelle Obama’s youthful look has been revealed by her make-up artist Carl Ray, and her fresh face is apparently thanks to a tip from Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge. She said Kate recommended the £43 Biotulin Supreme Skin Gel to Michelle which is a non-injectable ‘organic Botox’. This organic gel is said to reduce muscle contractions in a similar manner to Botox.
But what exactly is Biotulin? Biotulin is a transparent gel. It smooths out wrinkles – the first results can be seen within just one hour. The results produced by the active ingredient Biotulin® is comparable to that achieved using Botox, yet it is much easier to use as it is applied directly onto the skin instead of being injected.
Carl told Celebrities Style that ‘Michelle Obama has been using this organic Botox gel regularly on the recommendation of Kate Middleton’, adding that it is ‘unbelievable’ for erasing wrinkles.
The gel contains a natural local anaesthetic extracted from the plant Acmella Oleracea, which promises to reduce muscle contractions and relax the facial features around the eyes and between the eyebrows. This promises to reduce fine lines and make the skin noticeably smoother. It also contains extracts of Imperata Cylindrica, a hardy grass that grows in South America’s desert regions, which gives an intense moisturising effect. The third key element is skin-plumping Hyaluronic acid to restore fullness to the face. Biotulin claims to provide visible results in 60 minutes that last up to 24 hours.
Carl has previously revealed that Michelle likes to keep her skincare regime simple and natural, relying on exercise, plenty of water, a good diet and sleep to keep her glowing.
‘It’s really pretty basic. I wash my face with a good cleanser, and I use a moisturizer with an SPF,’ she told Prevention.
‘Every now and then I’ll go to a dermatologist for microderm or a facial, but I don’t have time to do that all the time.’
The First Lady herself confirmed in an interview that she doesn’t go in for a complicated regime.
The Duchess is also a fan of natural skincare and is reportedly a convert to Beuti Skincare’s Beauty Sleep Elixir, which contains 14 plant-based oils that neutralise the enzymes that inflame and damage the skin.
It’s not known for certain when Kate passed on her skincare secret to Michelle, but the pair were first introduced at a reception at Buckingham Palace in 2011, shortly after the royal wedding. And they had the chance to catch up again when the Cambridges hosted the Obamas for a private dinner at Kensington Palace in April last year.
