What can I do to minimise them? Is there a magic cream?

Sleep on your back not your side.

Good advice Dexter! I do try but fear it is too late! In bright light they look like the Grand Canyon!!!!

I have them too (too many sunbeds in my younger days)

Bio oil is supposed to help. I tried it for a while, but must admit I didn't keep up to it.

merlin · 07/03/2012 11:20

Ah yes - the infamous bio oil - will def try that. Thank you!

Factor 50 all over your chest all summer.

merlin · 07/03/2012 11:36

Pseudo - that's what I don't get - I've always used suncreams, only had about a dozen sunbeds in my whole life (and I'm nearing my half century!!!).

I'm going to get started on the Bio-oil and see if that helps.

oh me too, creases. have always used suncream Sad

soooooo pissed off, it looks really aging. i have quite olive skin, and up until 2 yrs ago my skin hadn't changed much for yrs.

i am 43.

will get my bio oil out later.

Pseudonymity · 07/03/2012 12:09

I also have olive skin and have spent a lot of time in hot countries. I do have some aging on my chest and shoulders that is probably not noticeable to other people but I'm aware of it. So, I spent all of last summer putting factor 50 on most days as I tend to wear tops that expose either shoulders or chest (or both) and it has made a big difference. I think that most of your sun exposure comes when you aren't necessarily thinking about it - so times that you might not be putting on suncream. Driving in the car is a classic time to get a lot of sun exposure on your chest and down one arm Grin!

Have you tried Snoxin? I had the same problem and have been stunned........

Havingkittens · 07/03/2012 14:52

Maybe one of these?

ha, the video is very funny, bla bla bla bla 'night bra'!

reminded me of 'scorchio', the fast show.

kaumana · 07/03/2012 19:01

Janinlondon- enquiring minds need to know! What were the results? What is snoxin?

1gglePiggle · 07/03/2012 22:25

Am I right in thinking that wearing the night bra, you actually have your tits hanging out? How strange, but actually tempted to buy one... Blush

anniewoo · 08/03/2012 07:55

Yes do tell... What is Snoxin??

1gglePiggle · 08/03/2012 14:40

I've seen it in boots. It's some new miracle anti ageing cream for about £30.

merlin · 08/03/2012 16:11

Well, I've ordered my Bio-Oil (Boots online) and will see how that works before I give the Snoxin a go!!!

Thanks for all the suggestions but I WON'T be buying one of those bras!!!!! Smile

Snoxin is indeed the stuff they are selling in boots. I think it does have an effect on texture/evenness and on fine lines. Have only used it for six days so far. Am using at night on face and twice a day on neck and decolletage. It is crap under makeup. As is the nanoblur (which is the cosmetic/temporary fix stuff made by the same company) - definitely had an effect but not good enough to make me presentable without makeup, and under makeup it is patchy and nasty.

anniewoo · 11/03/2012 15:25

Have bought the Snoxin will teport back. Hope it's bettet than Soap and Glory - Wish upon a Jar- no change to skin texture or appearance!

1gglePiggle · 11/03/2012 22:39

I think the nanoblur has to go OVER makeup, perhaps that's why result wasn't too good? I'm always a bit dubious about all these miracle creams though. Prevention better than cure!
