Beauty Ingredient Spotlight: Dragon’s Blood

Dragon's Blood is just as unique as it sounds. Of course, it is not blood at all. It actually comes from the bright red sap of a tree found deep in the Amazon rainforest in South America and is locally known to have exceptional skin benefits. This amazing sappy resin acts like a liquid bandage and dries quickly to form a protective barrier on the lips. It is used traditionally to help accelerate repair of the skin, giving rise to its reputation as a ‘second skin’. Dragon’s Blood also has antioxidant properties and activity suggesting that Dragon’s Blood reduces free radical damage to the skin making it an ideal ingredient for beauty products. {Product provided for review/feature consideration}
