The beflattered team, all in their 40s, 50s and 60s have tried  loads of great products available on the market. Read our take on products for Saggy Skin.

We believe that effective skincare is key to looking great and staying young.

Our first port of call is to keep up a good skin cell turnover. To remove the dead and dull cells from the top of your skin and reveal radiant new ones – this is indeed one of the treatments you could be offered by a cosmetic surgeon but we think home peels are just as good!

Our favourite product to help with Ageing Skin of any kind is .

This product gives you the professional results of a non invasive chemical peel at home! It uses the same ingredients as professional peels used by cosmetic surgeons, but at a more gentleconcentration for gradual skin renewal. This unique 12-week program will gently and effectively slough away dead, dull skin to reveal fresh, bright, younger looking skin

Since muscles are the weakening element here the idea of freezing them in one place – like Botox – can make a difference, a muscle that is frozen and can’t move and wouldn’t it be great if you could get that result without the needle? Well you can! With .

The massively talked about active ingredient Syn-ake® works like Botox, by inhibiting the release of neurotransmitters which cause facial muscle tension (fine lines, wrinkles and eventually sagging).

SYN-AKE is an active compound based on a synthetic tripeptide that mimics the effect of waglerin 1, a peptide that is found in the venom of the Temple Viper. This compound was awarded numerous patents and was so effective that it was also lauded by the Swiss Technology Awards, because it was proven to reduce wrinkles by up to 52% and to create a smoothing effect by up to 82% within the first few weeks of application. SYN-AKE offers comparable and side effect free, over the counter solutions to the dangers associated with using popular skin injections.

Resurfacing the skin through topical creams also helps to iron out wrinkles and improve sagging we think we’ve found some pretty good ones.

SKIN.NY from America have two great products that in essence do the same one is just gentler.

and   both contain QAL-100™ - uniquely this contains three highly active ingredients, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Co-Enzyme Q10 and Acetyl l Carnitine, together these work synergistically against the effects of ageing helping to make wrinkles less noticeable. This was also the first ingredient anti-ageing complex to be written about in the British Journal of Dermatologists- a real ground breaker claiming to contain molecules that are small enough to pass through to the dermis the skin's deepest layer. It is only at the dermis that you can truly alter the skin and affect real change.

Or we think the is well worth its money if sagging skin is bringing you down? As the name suggest it is a Face lift in a jar that fights deep wrinkles and sagging skin. Supefacelift™ has been specially designed for mature skins to encourage and maintain effective communication between the layers of the skin to produce a lifting effect. Studies on Superfacelift™ active ingredients showed a reduction in deep forehead wrinkles by up to 86% and a 67% reduction in crow’s feet in 8 weeks. Achieve the effects of a facelift without setting foot inside a surgery.

If you prefer an organic product we like .

The key to the effectiveness of Organic Apoteke is the way the active ingredients are delivered to where they are needed in the skin. This is via multiple micro-emulsion technology.

Organic Apoteke’s unique active complexes, 'wrapped' in eight layers of botanical oils and floral waters, are designed to unfold into the skin, infusing it with nutrients as they pass from layer to layer. Its Pentapeptide Complex acts like a supplement to collagen and elastin, providing the building blocks required to maintain a healthy skin structure for firmer, wrinkle reduced, younger-looking skin.

Pair this with  which has the benefits of SIX serums in ONE bottle. Decreases fine lines and wrinkles by 60% and sagging by 21%. Prevents trans-epidermal water loss by 44% (this means is helps your skin to sty hydrated and fuller looking). Increases firmness by 38% ,hydration by 60% and lightens up age spots by 36%.

These amazing results are based on client trials. Results are the average of over 400 subjects over an 8 week period. Measurements were obtained using dermatological, diagnostic technology.

And don’t let your hard work go to waste –protect your skin from ultra violet light at all time. This really is the key and we like Supermoist™ SPF30+ Accelerator with UVA and UVB protection 


A superb non greasy facial moisturiser from Skin Doctors that protects skin from the damaging effects of the sun and maximises the results of your cosmeceutical treatments.

Saggy SkinAnd as sagging is linked to the muscle tone of the face a bit of body building is called for. Try our Age Fighting Facial Exercises.

You won’t see difference overnight but get into the habit of pulling these bizarre facial expressions and overtime your resilience will improve and you may keep the sag at bay for longer.

Either way you will have some fun doing them and laughter is so so good for you.

It’s well known that what you eat reflects in your skin – eat junk consistently and your skin will, over time show it. Even if you eat a reasonable diet, the nutrients in food cannot always be guaranteed, so taking a good Multi-Vitamin and Mineral supplement is good health and skin insurance. Flax Seed OilFor general all round skin care from within we like a good dose of Flax Seed Oil, or chose a good ready made Organic Beauty Oil Complex to take internally every day.

With so much information around we know how easy it is to be confused so have a look at our Top Tips to Young Looking Skin or Foods that Feed the Skin  and see if we can make it a bit clearer for you.
