• Mimosa Tenuiflora: Known as the skin tree; of the Mayas, Mimosa Tenuiflora is a shrub found on a narrow strip of land located at an altitude of 800 - 1000 m in the Mexican state of Chiapas. According to Indian tradition, the powder obtained from the bark helps to heal wounds. The Mexican earthquake of 1985 and the shortage of medicine that followed brought this special tree's therapeutic benefits back into the spotlight. It is now officially recognized as part of the country's national heritage and for its exceptional capacity to restore damaged epidermis.

I cannot honestly see me spending £0 on 15 ml of this as it didn't do anything for my skin and seems an expensive and fiddly item to add to my beauty regime.

Summary
This is an oily liquid that is a dark orange colour and you have to mix just a few drops of this with either your moisturiser or foundation. You need only a very small amount but this is a fiddly thing to do I found. My sample sachet I poured into my moisturiser which only had had left then mixed it up thoughly.
