A wrinkly cleavage causes some women as much angst as facial wrinkles. They can affect anyone, not just those of advancing years and women most prone to suffering from them are side sleepers. Apart from using invasive procedures to tackle the problem or sleeping permanently on your back, there’s not much you can do to improve them. However, there is an alternative and completely natural way of banishing chest creases, (at least temporarily), with a product called 'La Decollette'.

L'oreal Revitalift Magic Blur finishing creamAfter 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.

Eucerin Even Brighter Night creamSince 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. 

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.

Back in the late 1800s, few American households were without a jar of Vaseline® petroleum jelly. Now the Vaseline® brand is instantly recognizable around the world. While Vaseline petroleum jelly is still a big seller, they also provide a wide range of body and hand care moisturizing products.

One of the more recent additions is Vaseline's Cocoa Butter vitalizing gel body oil. This could be a product you'll either love or hate as it has received widely mixed reviews which might leave you wondering whether it should be labeled with a strong precautionary warning before trying it out.

L’oreal, the gigantic cosmetics brand with one of the most memorable catchphrases of recent times,  ‘Because you’re worth it’, are enormously popular, no doubt considerably helped by the famous ‘names’ used to promote their products. And L’Oreal Revitalift Deep-Set Wrinkle Repair day lotion followed the trend with a long running advertising campaign featuring the elegant and virtually line-free Andie MacDowell. But does all this make the product worth buying?

Boots Botanics Organic
 Nourishing Body Oil
Covering your body in oil after a bath or shower may not be to everyone’s liking. But if you've only ever used a cream moisturizer, it might be time to give oil a try.

A good place to start would be with Boots Botanics Organic nourishing body oil which is made from 100 percent certified organic ingredients and is designed to hydrate, soothe and nourish your skin.

It's not that long ago when putting your makeup on in the morning involved applying a bit of moisturizer followed by foundation and maybe powder or blusher.  Now though, we are urged to use more and more products, applying layer upon layer over our facial skin to hide all traces of whatever’s lurking underneath. One of the most recent additions to our cluttered makeup bags is a primer. Revlon have produced a primer as part of their Age Defying skincare range which caters for dry skin as well as normal to combination skin.

There was a time when people wouldn't let on that they washed their hair with Head & Shoulders. For if they did, they were also revealing something about themselves that they'd rather keep private – they had dandruff.

 But those days are long gone and Head & Shoulders is now quite trendy and very acceptable to be seen on your bathroom shelf.
Skin Doctors, Rapid Peel
Skin Doctors are an Australian company producing products targeted at treating a host of common skin problems. For instance, if you have puffy eye bags, pigmentation spots, spider veins or wrinkles, Skin Doctors are bound to have something suitable. They claim to “bridge the gap” between ordinary skincare products and cosmetic surgery. Of these, one of their ‘Professional Results’ range is Rapid Peel, a concentrated glycolic exfoliator.


Garnier Nutrisse
Getting your hair colored at the hairdresser can be an expensive business, particularly since you need a root touch up every six weeks or so. Fortunately there are plenty of choices when it comes to coloring hair at home. One of the latest additions to the Garnier collection of home hair colorants is their Nutrisse Creme nourishing permanent hair color.


Choosing the right foundation can be a hit or miss affair. Countless numbers of women must spend years searching for the holy grail of foundations, the one that really will make your skin appear ‘flawless’.

While this claim is wearing a bit thin now, we can live in hope. Anyway, it's there again, promoting a new addition to the Revlon range with its Beyond Natural skin matching makeup.

Dove Body Moisturiser
Most of us want to have beautiful soft skin and one of the best ways of achieving this is to use a body moisturiser. During the summer, skin can become very dry, especially if you're spending more time outdoors in the sunshine. This could also mean you're using a lot more moisturiser than normal.

If this is the case and you're on the lookout for something different from your regular brand, you might want to take a look at this product from Dove, called 'Rich Nourishing Beauty Body Moisturiser'.

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. After all, it has to battle against the elements each day with pollution, indoor heating, air conditioning and poor eating habits all taking their toll on our skin. 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.

Hi and thanks for visiting my blog!

My name's Caroline and I live in London. I'm a freelance writer and nutritionist, so you'll find a lot of my articles are health based.

I'm also passionately interested in skincare. Although the food we eat has the most noticeable effects on our skin, the skincare products we use has a large part to play.

As such, I often write product reviews and other articles on dealing with skincare and anti-aging.
