Have you tried Murad products? 40-something and open to new products.

I tried some in M&S and they seem lovely. Extremely expensive though! I am tempted by the age diffusing serum www.murad.co.uk/age-diffusing-serum and some others.

Any thoughts?

I was given a sample cleanser in Debenhams as I think as they are newish....I think you could get samples from JL also.
It is OK, but smells like stilton and so I have to overcome the gag reflex.

I tried a Murad day cream which has a citrus scent. I don't fancy spending £60 or whatever for a Stilton effect!

Did you like it though, apart from the smell?

Hi mipmop, I'm a similar age, I love the Vitamin C cleanser which I use daily and really liked the the anti-ageing serum with Durian in it (can't remember what it's called, sorry). The day cream in the Vitamin C range is also great, but have only ever used sample sizes so can't report back massively miraculous de-wrinkling/brightening effects, I'm afraid....

I am happy to shell out for the cleanser, and would buy the moisturiser if money were no object and I didn't have a pile of unfinished creams/samples to use up first, but actually have found the Boots Perfect and Protect Intense serum to be as good, which is significantly cheaper.

Thanks BritAbroadInAsia. I'll try to get some samples. In the meantime, the range is showing at 20% off on the M&S website - "until midday" today.
