Anti Wrinkle Serum
Jump to: Newest in thread
Hey
Anyone use this?
I've just purchased an anti wrinkle serum x been using it for a week and a positive difference x
Box says it rejuvenates and firms and I can confirm it seems to be true!
And only a couple of pounds from the make up counter! |

"I'm TERRIBLE at skin care. Truly awful.
I moisturise about once a week "
I've never moisturised in my life. I hate the feel on my skin.
Any...... from the cheapest to the most expensive only penetrate the epidermis in any case........ so I believe. |

I sometimes use serum but not regularly, I don't find it makes any difference to me. I'm using a very expensive moisturiser that Mr N bought me at the moment and the skin on my face feels really nice. Usually though I use Aldi moisturiser. Maybe I should invest in serum.

If something makes you feel good then it's worth the money.
But they do very little to prevent gravity doing it's job.
I use a cheap as chips moisturiser because I don't like feeling dry.
Moisturising from within with drinking lots of water is the most effective. |

I've got very oily skin and I think that's helped although it's also been the bane of my life at times |

I might put gravy in pretty packaging with a designer label and use long words no one understands claiming after a month you will look 10yrs younger.
I'll charge £100 for a small pot of it

I do know that those patronising women who say "hyaluronic acid" really slowly as if we're all incapable of understanding long words because we're so girly and not interested in such things, really get on my nerves. |

I use coconut oil to moisturize my face and body , sometimes I may add in afew drops of essential oil into it. I do have good skin and look younger than my approaching years but I think alot is down to genetics. My mum looks much younger than her 70 years |

"I've only recently become interested in skincare, and my skin has never looked or felt better. I wish I'd started 20 years ago "
I'm the same - I'm using a product called Balance Active Formula it's from a discount store - I've heard the No7 range is excellent x |

I am obsessed with skin care. Doesn’t have to be expensive (the ordinary range is an affordable brand and worth looking at), however I do have some high end brands too. No7 often have great deals.
I use tropic to cleanse and tone, beautiful products. I also use their skin glow oil. Hyaluronic acid is a must, serums on deeper lines and then a decent moisturiser. I treat my neck and décolletage as an extension of my face and always treat those areas too.
I’m often complimented about my skin x |

The great snake oil con, costing us £billions. They use special trademarked names that they want to add scientific gravitas to their formulations. The strongest help will come via your genetic makeup, your diet and lifestyle, including minimising sun exposure and stress plus your blood serum will deliver the nutrients that your skin needs, at the right depth in your skin. Otherwise, it's like plastering and polyfilla, we're just tinkering on the surface. The Boots range has some valid scientific research behind it but the rest are going to be helping us feel good,mostly the skin being slightly prevented from water loss, dead cells removal and some placebo effect too. I like Elemis stuff. |

I do think genetics play a huge part. My dad has never used anything but soap and water on his face and sparingly at that lol. Although he's mid nineties his skin is remarkable. His mother was the same, she used glycerine and rose water. |

I just had a quick look at her video about adapting your routine as you get older. Then she said "I'm turning 34" and I pressed back |

I like the Bodyshop Drops of Youth range, and I know it's ethical and packaging recyclable.
I use my friend's shea & teatree face soap, she hand makes them and again all the packaging is plastic free.
Nothing stops my hormonal break outs though. |

I use a mix of The Ordinary (Buffet, hyaluronic acid, mandelic acid and glycolic acid - also vitamin C suspension but I'm not repurchasing, I see no difference), Revolution (salicylic acid, The Ordinary discontinued theirs. It's fragranced), Superdrug (vitamin E moisturisers), and oddly Tesco (their sensitive skin cleanser is quite good). I also wear sunscreen religiously.
My sensitivity, oiliness, congestion/blemishes, and texture have reduced over the two years I've been paying attention beyond wash and moisturise. |

I absolutely adore skincare. I can't imagine what my skin would look like if I didn't have products to help keep it under control.
If you're blessed with good skin then I don't think you need to spend a fortune. As long as you're using SPF daily and keeping your skin hydrated you'll be absolutely fine.
I'm approaching my 30s and I still get hormonal breakouts on my face every couple of months. I've struggled with acne my whole life. Luckily I've got no wrinkles and barely any lines but my mum is nearly 60 and doesn't have any so it is probably good genetics. I do like to make sure I take care of my skin now for the future though. |

I always slather on the moisturiser face and body but always swap and change what I use, most of how you look is down to genetics but figured why not give yourself an extra helping hand |
