Face Cream

full-time-mum

I can deny it no longer, I'm getting older. I looked in the mirror last weekend and I realise that I am going to have to invest in some anti-ageing/anti-wrinkle cream. I've used Body Shop Tea Tree oil products for as long as I can remember as I have (or maybe that should be had) oily open-pored skin and it has suited me well but now I think I need something a little more technoligical!

I looked in the shops and there is a daunting array of products with vast price differentials! I've heard that expensive isn't necessarily best but I just don't know where to start. I've also heard that rentinol is the ingredient to go for.

Any help/advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

I'm a recent convert to Liz Earle stuff.

I get the light face cream & the hot cloth clean & polish wash.

They sell it on ebay, but its cheaper on the Liz Earle website.

Joanna Lumley uses astral or nivea cream. Can't remember which one but she looks great.

Aldi were on tv just advertising a day and night creme for £1.89 can't remember the name of it but for that price it has to be worth a go....

That maybe so, but I wonder what else she is using when she is not advertising?

Will go and have a look - is it just a basic moisturiser/cleanser or does it claim anti-ageing/wrinkling properties?

Have a look at some of the stuff they contain.

I am not afan of expensive creams and for years just used the simple cream.
i wanted something better, tried the No7 protect & perfect and its ok.
but now I have found what i think is a great product and to me its BETTER than the protect and perfect..Olay regenerist serum...i think this stuff is great, within 1 week I could see the difference in my skin. skin looks younger and fine lines are fading. excellent product, sells in Boots for 22.50 but i bought 2 bottles on ebay for £18 inclusing P&P!!!! I am converted and will def
continue using it. oh BTW I think boots are doing a offer on it at the moment, reduced to about £14 I think. sorry, I just checked and offer is finished, I saw it last week.
