Please give me recommendations for your best cream that you rely on to lift, plump and firm - especially to help with crepey skin.

Also interested in this. I have crepey skin. I probably always have but notice it more when the botox wears off. I’d really like to stop botox but my skin is just so awful without it. Note to younger people reading this- start a good skincare routine early.

What’s your budget? My absolute favourite cream is Kate Somerville peptide power cream, BUT it is £127. It has worked wonder for my skin though.

A more budget friendly option is REN Bio-Retinoid cream.

Are you acid toning? I found that helped loads to get rid of the top layer of shite so the cream can really sink in. Also using a hyaluronic acid serum before your moisturiser really helps plump and moisturise your skin.

Tbh I'm trying to avoid Botox so happy to pay ££
I use lactic acid 10% every ither night and a retinol on tge alternate nights.
I use HA serums morning and night - and argeriline, matrixyl and pentapeptide serums.
Also ascorbic acid in the morning.
Looking for a thick unctious sp? cream to really lift and plump.

Fresh do a black tea corset firming cream which might be what you're looking for. Full disclosure a I've not tried it, but I have the Fresh black tea eye cream, and the black tea firming overnight mask, and they are both firming and hydrating. But ££££ though not as much as the Kate Somerville.

Curel moisture lotion no 2 which is watery, but full of ceramides, followed by Hada Labo Premium Hyaluronic Milk (yellow one) Absolutely brilliant and my skin is juicer now than in my 30’s. (I’m almost 48)

Hiya, I find the Elemis pro collagen range works well for me. They have a day and night cream, the night cream: pro collagen matrix is wonderful.

Samantha Sona Davidson Plum Day Cream & Native Snowflower Night Cream (£13.91 each plus postage from Australia). They also do a Vitamin C Day Serum for about £20.

Great products. And all cruelty-free.
