If you had to pick one skincare product that really works what would it be and why?

Can’t afford a whole new routine but would like to introduce something - maybe a serum - to up my skincare game a bit.

I just got a Korean sunscreen and I’m in love with it, but at only 2 days it can’t be my recommendation.

Indeed micro exfoliator about twice a week. I have a bottle that’s at about 2 years old and going strong. My dh let me do him last week and he looked 5 years younger! It’s a chemical powder one.

Easy. Tretinoin at night and spf 50 in the day.

Vaseline. I’ve been applying a thin layer of it on at night over my normal (cheap-Nida at the moment if you are interested) moisturiser for ages and it works a treat to sort of seal the product and moisturise in itself. My under eye has totally reversed in crepe-I-ness as a result. Korean beauty types are also on to this and call it slugging I believe, but I just started doing it almost by accident and found it worked.

Effaced is the only moisturiser that doesn’t break me out so I am a devotee as it just works for me. Other than that I use the medik8 vitamin C in the mornings (there’s a more expensive serum type one which is lovely but I’m on the slightly cheaper oil based one at the moment) and SPF

against my better judgement yesterday I bought that dupe of the Nivea q10 night cream from Lidl and have woken with my skin feeling fantastic on the cheeks and forehead but with a big spot on my chin. Will keep trying it with more selective application. I may try the cicaplast next

For the No 7 fans above, there’s lot of it on £10 Tuesday today.

Supergoop glow screen-sunscreen, primer, moisturiser and it gives a bit of a glow. She will never look back!

@PotatoBreadForTheWin That's so annoying when a new product makes 95% of your skin look great. I get it when I apply Avene Cicalfate, most of my skin is hugely improved but with two or three small spots appearing.

I’ve been using this for six months with the vitamin C as well, what a game changer! Mid sixties and I’m told I have fantastic skin. Think they do an offer for the first 3 months so very cheap to start and the dose of Tret increases each month to begin with. I have sensitive skin and have not had any problems.
