I always seem to have one of those No. 7 vouchers squirrelled away in my purse. They become lost among the wad of other vouchers and inevitably are well past their expiry date by the time I discover them.

However, the last time I was in Boots, I remembered to check my vouchers, found one still active, and set off in the direction of the No 7 stand.

I’ve been using No 7 Protect & Perfect serum for a couple of years now and have already switched to the Intense version for more 'mature' skin'. So when I noticed a complementary version of Protect & Perfect Intense in the Night Cream range, I decided to try it out.

After the popularity of Indeed’s Nanoblur, there have been several copycats attempting to catch some of their market share. If you haven’t heard of Nanoblur, this is a cream designed to camouflage wrinkles with an immediate effect. L’Oreal have now brought out their version of camouflage cream, called Magic Blur.

Magic Blur is described as an instant skin smoother finishing cream. According to the pack it ‘instantly blurs wrinkles, pores and imperfections. Look younger in seconds.’

Since reaching my 40's, the follies of sunbathing under the hot Australian sun are fast catching up with me. Where once it was all about getting the deepest tan, these days it’s finding the right skincare to try and prevent further sun damage while repairing the damage already done.

So, in my quest to find products to help keep pigmentation spots at bay, I’ve been using Eucerin’s Even Brighter pigment reducing day and night cream.

Getting older aint much fun, not least because of the uphill battle against the signs of aging. One area that’s often neglected until it’s too late is the hands. Apart from thinning skin, age spots on the hands are a dead giveaway of a persons, err, lack of youth.

I started noticing these horrid marks appearing on my hands a few years ago. First it was the odd one or two, but each year a few more would join. So now I regularly use a rich hand cream at night and another during the day. 

L’Oreal, the international skincare company, is continually researching, developing and improving their ranges of products in order to keep us looking youthful. It seems every few weeks there’s another product launch or new advertising campaign for one of their new and innovative skincare moisturizing creams. It’s pretty persuasive stuff. But to keep its customers loyal, they need products that work. So do they? This product review discusses the findings from using one of L’Oreal’s products from the Wrinkle De-Crease range called Collagen Filler Eye.

Many of us are on the lookout for that miracle treatment, something that will really do what it says on the box and get rid of wrinkles. We end up spending a fortune on face creams promising all sorts of wonders, but more often than not, our wrinkles refuse to budge.

Frownies for Forehead and Between Eyes

Wrinkles, love them or hate them, there's no escaping the fact getting older means more of them. While many of us spend a fortune on face creams, others venture down the Botox route, forking out obscene amounts of money to have a deadly nerve paralyzing toxin injected into their skin.

But there is another, safer, less expensive and all natural alternative, Frownies. I discovered these little miracles by chance while frantically searching online for something to help remove my ever deepening forehead lines. And once I tried Frownies, I was hooked.
