TRIED & TESTED

ANT-AGEING HAND AND BODY CREAMS

CAUDALIE VINOPERFECT DARK SPOT CORRECTING HAND CREAM £15, Dermalogica.co.uk

A HANDS-DOWN winner. We thought it was an exceptional moisturiser that gave us youngerlooking hands to be proud of. Pigmentation and dry, crinkly skin improved ten-fold. INSTANT EFFECTS HAND SUPER SERUM £24.99, Myinstanteffects.com

THIS fast-working cream was a hit. The scent isn’t to everyone’s taste, but this product really lived up to its name. Our tester said hands look plumped up, smooth, soft and hydrated. Definitely younger looking. LANOLIN LANO COCONUTTER HAND CREAM INTENSE £8.99, Lookfantastic.com & Waitrose

SO much to love about this gorgeous smelling cream that left skin super-soft and looking younger. It has a velvety feel once applied, and when used daily our usually dry hands didn’t feel dry any more. DERMALOGICA PHYTO REPLENISH BODY OIL £47.50, Dermalogica.co.uk

ALTHOUGH it seemed oily at first, it disappeared into our skin soon after application and left a perfect sheen. Skin looked quite a bit younger, smoother and firmer. Cellulite looked a little better.

THE BODY SHOP SPA OF THE WORLD ETHIOPIAN GREEN COFFEE CREAM £25, stores nationwide & the bodyshop.com

FANS of this loved it as a moisturiser and saw antiageing benefits too. While it didn’t perform as well on orangepeel skin as the Dermalogica oil, our testers saw some firming effect that would convince them to use it again.

NIVEA Q10+VITAIMIN C FIRMING RICH BODY LOTION £8.49, Boots & Superdrug

AGAIN, this didn’t have the cellulite-tackling abilities of the oil above, but testers still loved it and most saw some anti-ageing effect. It absorbed quickly and left skin feeling smoother and plumper.
