Not just any old Frankincense, the best quality Young Living Frankincense in the world and that makes all the difference.
I used 2 drops of Frankincense on my face twice a day for a month and the difference was very noticeable. My skin was smoother, clearer and any lines didn’t seem as noticeable after a month. How old do you think I am? I am 35 years old. My skin still has a long way to go but I think for 35 years, it could be a lot worse!

So I made myself an anti-wrinkle cream so I can continue to use Frankincense on my skin daily.
What is so great about Frankincense?
When applied topically, it can help smooth the appearance of healthy-looking skin, I had a very noticeable chicken pox mark on my face and now it is definitely not quite so noticeable.
Frankincense Oil promotes regeneration of healthy cells and also keeps the existing cells and tissues healthy. When you combine this aspect of frankincense oil with its powerful astringent capabilities, you have a potent anti-aging quality that frankincense oil is often used for. It can help you to get rid of sun spots, micro-wrinkles around the eyes and cheeks, and generally tone and tighten skin all over your body. It has made a big improvement to me.

Hi Katherine,I just wanted to tell you I completed the 7 day detox and I feel so great.
I have lost 6lbs, do not feel like I need more my morning coffee, the flushing of my facial skin from rosacea has dramatically reduced and I am so excited to wake up each morning and make a green thickie for breakfast!!
I am a stay at-home, homeschooling momma of 3 littles and at times so busy I would forget to feed myself!
I would go most of the day without eating and then snack on random things.
I gained 60 pounds the last 6 years during pregnancy.
I have lost 30lbs but recently plateaued and have felt so frustrated.
I’ve tried everything from paleo and keto to the point where I didn’t know what to eat or how much and felt like even eating fruit was bad for me which thankfully it’s not!
What a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing a simple but effective program.
I’m so excited to continue another week with this plan! Thankful Stephanie

Anya says
What a great Easy Anti-wrinkle cream recipe! I am definitely making it!
Rena @ No Way That's Healthy! says
I use Frankincense too! Do you really need the cocoa butter here? Can it be made without it?
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
That’s great Rena! I’m afraid I haven’t tried this recipe without the cocoa butter.
Asif says
Hi,
I was expexting to find jojoba oil in the ingredients list. Is there any reason in particular why you have not included it? What do you think of adding 1/4cup jojoba oil?
Editor says
Hi, there is no reason why you couldn’t do this with jojoba oil, definitely try it and let us know how you get on. x
Doris says
Hi,
I wonder if its suitable for oily or combination skin. Tq :))
Editor says
Hi Doris, this cream is great for all skin types. x
Sara says
Coconut oil has wonderfull uses, however it is not known to be non comedogenic.
Lorrie says
What about Shea butter? 50 drops of oil???…really that seems like a lot or is that a typo?
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
Yes 50 drops of oil to get the therapeutic benefits.
Daphne says
50 drops of Frankincense sounds like a lot compared to other recipes I have. Can this cause any skin irritations? I am ready to try it! Thanks for the feedback.
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
As it is balanced out with the other ingredients it is better for sensitive skin. Perhaps try a very small quantity of oil on your skin to check if you can tolerate it before making the recipe?
Yvette Lawrence says
What can be substituted for sweet almond oil as I am extremely allergic to nut products. Thank you
Diana says
I just made this cream. How long does it typically take to see the results?
