Kate Middleton reportedly recommended this £43 face cream to Michelle Obama
The Duchess of Cambridge has gorgeous skin. Now – according to Just Jared – we reportedly have more details on the cream she uses, thanks to a recommendation she once gave former First Lady Michelle Obama.
In an excerpt from the original post, Obama's make-up artist Carl Ray reportedly said, 'Michelle Obama has been using this regularly on the recommendation of Kate Middleton,' and added that 'the effect is unbelievable.' It looks like he might have said that late last year and we haven't seen him confirm this directly on his Instagram, but he's pretty prolific about his work with Obama in general.
The main ingredient of Biotulin Supreme Skin Gel is spilanthol, which is 'a biological local anaesthetic that is derived from the extract of the plant Acmella oleracea, and it is said to work by reducing muscle contractions and relaxing your features.' Unlike Botox, which is injected, this cream is just dabbed on the face and neck. As such, it's not long-lasting, but apparently will work for up to 24 hours.
Not everyone was totally on board: Dr. Maryam Zamani told Get The Gloss that she was 'skeptical' that a cream could block muscle movement, but did add that the moisturising component could potentially be helpful.
Biotulin has apparently garnered a lot of fans, including J. Lo, Madonna, and even Kim Kardashian.
