As we age, our skin becomes thinner, drier and less elastic. This makes it more susceptible to wrinkles and discolouration. Although no cream can guarantee beauty and youth forever, the best anti-aging creams can slow down the effects of aging and provide targeted ingredients that will make skin more comfortable as it ages.
Which products are worth the investment and why? We have sifted through hundreds of tubes and jars of night and day creams in our quest to find the ones that truly smoothen skin and soften wrinkles. Before you buy, here are some important information.
This world-famous day cream is widely regarded as the best anti-aging cream available. This cream contains soothing rose and Mediterranean sea algae. It is lightweight in texture, but delivers big results. You can expect to see fewer lines within two weeks.
It’s suitable for all skin types, even sensitive. After applying your favorite serum, apply a small amount to your neck and face every morning. The cream will quickly absorb into your skin, so you can apply your makeup immediately. The SPF 30 version is recommended for sun protection. There’s an ultra-rich version available for those with dry skins, as well as a men’s version ($44 for 30ml) that is perfect for after shaving.
Clinique’s rich moisturising lotion with brightening vitamin A and nourishing vitamin E stimulates the skin’s natural collagen production. This results in a firmer, more youthful-looking skin. It has a light chemical scent in the jar but it quickly disappears after use. The cream is noticeably rich, but it easily sinks into the skin leaving it baby-soft and glowing. Dry skin feels hydrated, soft, and comfortable immediately after application. After four weeks, your skin should feel firmer and smoother. Repairwear Uplifting dry is ideal for very dry or dry skin. It’s also available as a combination-friendly version.
L’Oreal’s brightening moisturizer contains retinol, a powerful ingredient that can soften skin and promote healing. It also includes a protective sunscreen of 30 and vitamin C to treat discolouration and dark spots. You will notice a smoother, lighter, and more even-toned complexion by using it daily. It is pleasant-smelling and quickly absorbs. Use twice daily, after cleansing, to see visible results in just a few weeks.
Drunk Elephant’s powerful combination of cell-boosting amino acids and peptides will help improve your skin’s texture and tone. This high-protein concentrate can be used alone or mixed with a moisturiser, serum or moisturizer. It contains nourishing oil and waterlily as well as signal peptides which direct skin cells to rebuild their cell-building proteins.
The vegan formula is fragrance- and silicone-free. The first application will result in firmer skin and less dark spots.
Combination skin is a combination of dry and oily cheeks. Exfoliating too harshly can cause dry, irritated cheeks. Oily or rich products may make oily areas look and feel worse. Clarins Multi-Active Nuit is a great option. This night cream is designed to treat both types of skin.
This lightweight cream is infused with the heavenly floral scents jasmine, freesia and heliotrope, which will brighten tired skin by morning.
Are you looking for an affordable anti-ageing product that doesn’t cost a fortune? Olay Regenerist is a hydrating cream that millions of women love. It contains firming amino-peptides and plumping hyaluronic acids, as well as vitamin B3 to improve skin texture. Olay claims that the skin-firming ingredients penetrate 10 layers to increase cell regeneration. It is easy to apply and leaves skin feeling smoother and moisturised. Skin will look smoother and more even with regular use of the non-greasy formula. It combats dullness and brightens the complexion. Great results at an affordable price.
This world-famous, ultra-premium face cream is worth every penny. It is the crème de la crème of hydrating and nourishing products. Creme de la Mer, the cream that kept Friends’ female cast looking fresh through the 1990s is well-known. It can be found backstage at Fashion Weeks around the world, soothing busy supermodels’ faces.
The formula was developed by Dr Max Huber to repair burns. It contains citrus extracts, algae and a trademarked Miracle Broth. This ultra-soothing ingredient is known for making the skin feel softer, smoother and more radiant. First, warm the opaque balm with your hands and then gently apply to the neck and face. The 500ml jar is 1,700 if you have the funds to buy bulk.
This famous face cream will give you the feeling of having just had a facial. Named after the amazing antioxidant ingredient, Immortelle Flower extract, the moisturiser is named after the ‘flower that never goes out of fashion’. It is rich in texture but easily melts into skin, leaving it feeling nourished, moisturized and fresh.
Immortelle Divine cream is especially effective in replacing dull-looking skin due to thinning. You can wipe out years of your appearance by using it in conjunction with the Immortelle Overnight Recovery Serum.
