Acmella oleracea, commonly known as Paracress
As a 56-year-old mom to 9½-year-old twins and the wife of a devoted husband and father, I’m deeply aware of how blessed I am. I’m constantly filled with joy and gratitude, but navigating my way through this blissful chaos can also become extremely overwhelming. Many things led up to this moment. I started by embracing clean food and natural alternatives to household products, creating natural products free from harsh ingredients for my family. In life’s journey, I’ve realized that self-care is not a luxury but a necessity to stay grounded in who I am. I’ve always managed to carve out five minutes in the morning and evening to take care of my skin – that’s my me-time, a reminder that I’m still here, a woman worthy of a little self-care and indulgence.
As I continued on this journey, I searched for products that aligned with my values – naturally, intentionally, and safely – but was consistently disappointed. Most products didn’t meet my standards. However, I discovered a ground-breaking, natural alternative to Botox that has revolutionized my skincare routine. This extraordinary ingredient, known internationally as Paracress, has produced remarkable scientific results. By relaxing facial muscles and smoothing out skin texture, it provides a natural, non-invasive solution for a more youthful appearance. Paracress affects the skin-nerve connection causing the facial muscles to relax, thereby reducing lines and signs of facial stress. This neuro-cosmetic ingredient plays a similar role to Botox without any side effects, while contributing to the formation and enhancement of collagen. As noted in clinical studies and research papers, this active ingredient is a myorelaxant alkaloid with antiseptic properties that inhibits the underlying facial muscles from contracting, with a result similar to the botulinum toxin used in Botox. The release of muscle tension results in smoother looking skin and the reparation of wrinkles such as forehead lines, crow’s feet and smile lines.
I’ve partnered with one of South Africa’s leading cosmetic labs to develop a revolutionary water-based serum that harnesses its full potential. Now, I’ve built Truth Through Nature – a clean, effective skincare line designed for women like me who want to age gracefully, with confidence, and without compromise. Our products are crafted with care, combining the best of science and nature to help you glow from the inside out.
