WONDER CREAMS that REALLY work
ERASE CREASES
SVR BIOTIC CERA REGENERATING FILLING BALM, £40, LABO-SVR.COM Although this cream isn’t cheap, it’s a darn sight less than fillers. The bouncy, fresh texture helps smooth and blur lines and wrinkles without needles. Creases look airbrushed and it makes a great base before you apply make-up, leaving your skin looking fresh and dewy all day.
SMOOTH THINGS OVER
LIZ EARLE SUPERSKIN ALT-RETINOL SKIN PASTE, £38, LIZEARLE.COM
Not keen on using retinol due to the risk of redness and peeling? Then try this. It delivers similar results without sensitivity, thanks to two key botanical ingredients, stevia and bidens Pilosa, which closely mimic Retinol’s ability to smooth and plump the skin.
PLUMP IT UP
LACURA EBONY ROSE FACE CREAM, £6.99, ALDI
We all love a ‘dupe’ and this version of a £146 face cream contains black rose extract, which helps to plump and brighten skin. After just one application, your skin will appear smoother and more rested.
A CLEAR WINNER
CLINIQUE ID DRAMATICALLY DIFFERENT HYDRATING CLEARING JELLY + ACTIVE CARTRIDGE CONCENTRATE FOR IMPERFECTIONS, £38, CLINIQUE.CO.UK
