Omg crepey neck

I just took a selfie and my neck looked fucking awful. When I look in the mirror it looks fine. A few lines from 'tech neck' but not Crepey. Is the camera lying to me or the mirror ??
Please recommend decent creams that are not stupidly expensive to help?
I use spf daily, hyaluronic acid and moisturise. I'm only 32 how depressing 😩

Aww Phone cameras are really harsh , honestly try not to feel downhearted as I bet you look great. And I actually think your neck looks fine

I am a decade older than you (eek!!) and have just started using neck cream. Prai is very good as is Galeboy neck firming cream

Here is another one with my head facing straight on. Deffo wrinkles there !

Thank you for kind words and recommendations I will take a look. Just annoying as I really try to look after my skin, I suffer terrible cystic acne so that has scarred my skin really bad and now I've got a turkey neck starting to deal with lol

Your skin just looks a little dry. Nothing to worry about.

@ILoveHuskies which prai cream do you use?

Fluffycloudland77 · 23/12/2021 16:52

That’s just neck creases from moving. Slap some sunblock on daily and retinol at night and you’ll be fine!

It's the "ageless throat and décolletage" one

Also really recommend the Galeboy one

Looks like a normal neck to me ! Also you have lovely hair.

Thank you for the reassurance, it's all I see in the mirror atm 😩 why do we have to age !!

Another vote for Prai Neck Cream

Journeynotdestination · 24/12/2021 09:08

Definitely Prai, it really works.

IamGusFring · 24/12/2021 09:34

It's not a crepey neck !

Peace3132 · 24/12/2021 09:53

Your neck honestly looks fine I think it's just camera angles. Sometimes I take a photo and I look fine then other times not so much. Think it's to do with lighting aswell. When I look straight on I have lines going across and I'm 31.
Also, don't forget a lot of photos that people post on social media etc are filtered to look smooth so it's easy to look at ourselves and see 'imperfections' when really it's just normal.
I use cetaphil spf50 daily- it's not greasy and is good under makeup

janicewheeler · 24/12/2021 17:36

Thank you everyone. I think sometimes we're hard on ourselves aren't we. I know I'm not getting any younger but bloody hell had a right shock with that pic 😆 looking into Prai and in the mean time dousing myself in everything I already have !!
