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.

Total Effects is a mid-priced range of face and skincare products manufactured by Olay which are designed to target, treat and prevent the seven signs of aging. According to the Olay website, their products are proven to deliver dramatic improvements in skin appearance.  And judging by the popularity of their moisturizers, Olay must be doing something right. Among the Total Effects range is Wake Up Wonder which has received rave reviews.

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.

Dark circles, puffy eyes and crepey looking skin can make us look older and more tired than we really are or indeed, feel. And often it's the skin around our eyes that starts showing the effects of ageing long before the rest of our face catches up.

This happens because the skin around our eyes is much thinner and more delicate and needs to be treated carefully. Many people find it helps to use a special eye cream rather than the same moisturiser that's used on the rest of your face.

One such cream is No. 7 Lift & Luminate Eye Cream.

Olay is one of the world's most recognizable skincare brands and a long time favorite among generations of women since the 1950s. However, the ensuing years saw the skincare market deluged with countless new and innovative products with Olay appearing a little staid and sometimes regarded as a product ‘my mother used to buy’. Since then, Olay has given itself a major facelift, having undergone a significant revamp and updating of its image along with the introduction of several completely new product lines including Total Effects, ProX and Definity. One of the most recent to be included to its growing range is Olay Regenerist. Read on for the complete review.

Women can spend years fruitlessly searching for that illusive anti-wrinkle product that really works. And then one day you suddenly find one and your faith in the beauty industry is restored. Boots Time Dimensions softening line smoother is one of those little miracles that makes you wonder why everyone isn't talking about it.

We all want our skin to feel and look its best and there are countless products out there all promising to help us achieve a more youthful, radiant look. But sometimes, no matter what we do, our skin can still appear dull, grey or washed out.

But there is a product by Skin Doctors, called Gamma Hydroxy which claims to help restore the younger looking skin hidden beneath our lifeless surface skin.
