Eye cream that makes skin ‘less puffy and wrinkled' has 20% off
On the lookout for a new eye cream? Next on our list to try is Facetheory's Peptide Firming Eye Cream for its effective ingredients and impressive customer reviews (almost all five star!) – especially now that it's currently included in a huge 20% off sale.
For a limited time only Facetheory is taking 20% off almost everything on its website, including this eye cream as well as bestselling serums, moisturisers and cleansers. This means that this anti-ageing eye formula is now £24.80 instead of its usual £31 – and judging by some of the dozens of five-star reviews, we'd say this was one you won't want to miss.
The key anti-ageing ingredients in this eye cream are peptides, currently trending in skincare at the moment thanks to smash hit launched such as Medik8's Liquid Peptides Advanced MP. In this Facetheory eye cream they're combined with vitamin C and botanicals to boost elasticity, smooth fine lines, brighten dark circles and deliver long-lasting hydration.
Impressively, out of the 212 reviews that Peptide Firming Eye Cream has accumulated, most of them are five-star ones, with customers praising the results it gives on fine lines and sagging ski n.
"Excellent so far, I can definitely feel the area around my eyes more firm," one shopper wrote.
"I really like this cream. One of the best I tried. I use it at night and my eyes look really good by morning, less puffy and less wrinkled (I am 57 - I don't expect miracles from a cream!)," another rave review reads.
"Amazing product! From the first application, it has really helped reduce puffiness under my eyes and blur fine lines, plus my concealer glides on and doesn't cake. Even my husband noticed something 'better' about my appearance which is an absolute miracle from someone who can't see the ketchup even when it's right in his eyeline (IYKYK). It's worth 5 stars just for that," a third person joked.
The only minor niggle that a few people had was with the packaging, with one person saying, "My only complaint is with any of the products using the metal/foil tube is that they explode every time they're opened and a bunch of product is wasted," yet so far they are " pleased with the outcome" of using the product.
If you feel like you too might find this tube annoying and would prefer a pot, consider Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado, currently reduced from £30 to £24 and great for dry or sensitive skin.
Meanwhile a cheaper alternative is The Ordinary's Multi-Peptide Eye Serum, which costs £19.90.

‘I asked ChatGPT for the best retinol for sensitive skin and was thrilled with the answer'
Wondering what retinol product is best for your skin? With so much on the market, I decided to see what AI suggested – and as a beauty editor, I completely trusted the result We probably all use AI at some points in our life nowadays, whether we realise it or not, but how good is it at giving beauty advice? As a beauty editor with around 15 years of experience, I put it to the test on one of the most confusing skincare topics – retinol – to see what is had to say – and I have to admit that I agreed with its findings. Retinol and other vitamin A derivatives are widely regarded as some of the best skincare ingredients for a wide range of complexion concerns, from spots to signs of ageing, but with so many to choose from, it can be tricky to know which one is right for you – especially if you have sensitive skin. But I think ChatGPT has nailed it. I asked ChatGPT simply what the best retinol product was, and it helpfully give me a list of options for each skin type. For dry or sensitive skin, which I typically have, it recommended Medik8 Crystal Retinal – and I knew I could trust this advice. Medik8's Crystal Retinal, which starts from £45, is a favourite amongst so many beauty editors and skincare experts for its easy-to-use formulas that really deliver results. It has a creamy, hydrating base texture that won't dry out the skin, and contains retinaldehyde instead of retin ol, which is proven to work up to 11 times faster than standard retinol. Most impressively, you can buy it in various strengths, meaning that you can build up the results; beginners (or those with sensitive skin) should start with Crystal Retinal 1 or 3, before gradually moving up to strength 24 if you feel like you can. I've used it consistently in the past and really liked it – it didn't irritate my skin like many active ingredients do, and I did see results when used consistently. All in all, a trustworthy piece of advice from the AI bot, and one that clearly many agree with, as Crystal Retinal has over 6,000 positive reviews on the Medik8 website alone, plus it's branded the UK's number one dermatological face serum. Going back to ChatGPT's answers, for a budget alternative the AI tool suggested The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane, £8.50, while La Roche-Posay Retinol B3 Serum, currently £33.60, and The INKEY List Retinol, £14, where also suggested. I haven't personally tried any of these three but they're all trusted brands that I know are unlikely to irritate delicate skin. While I certainly wouldn't recommend replying on ChatGPT for all your skincare advice – especially if you have serious issues – on this occasion it has clearly trawled through thousands of actual expert recommendations for this product online, and come to an appropriate summary.

Boots' 'saviour' £10 item 'smooths out fine lines and wrinkles' in days
Boots' £10 Tuesday event has seen the popular product discounted for one day only Boots shoppers are heaping praise on an "amazing" beauty product they say "smooths out wrinkles and fine lines." The product has been discounted too, as part of the retailer's popular £10 Tuesday event. The No7 Laboratories Dark Circle Corrector 15ml is now available for £10, down from £24.95, for one day only. The product comes in two shades - light/medium and medium/dark. According to Boots, the Dark Circle Corrector is "clinically proven to reduce the appearance of dark circles." It promised to reduce their appearance by up to 30%, delivering "both fast, visible results and longer-term benefits over time." The product is formulated with hyaluronic acid to help "visibly plump skin", while algae extract and the rollerball applicator "leaves your eyes feeling instantly soothed and cooled." The lightening technology used in the No7 product targets the three causes of dark circles so skin "appears firmed, calmed and less hyperpigmented." Alternatively, LookFantastic also stocks a number of products targeting dark circles and fine lines from different brands. These include the Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado for £30, the La Roche-Posay Pigmentclar Eyes 15ml for £24.80 (down from £31), and the Beauty of Joseon Revive Eye Serum Ginseng + Retinal 30ml for £15. The No7 Dark Circle Corrector has racked up a number of rave reviews online, with impressed shoppers praising the "amazing" results they've seen. One person said: "Dark Circle saviour! I've tried so many products for dark circles and this is the best one yet! The rollerball helps with puffiness and the colour is sheer enough that it doesn't cake under the eyes! LOVE IT!" A second wrote: "Wonderful stuff. Made a real difference to the shadows under my eyes, and didn't irritate my sensitive skin." A third impressed shopper added: "Gets rid of the worst bags in seconds! Fabulous under eye moisturiser with a light tint that goes on beautifully. "The rollers in the top are wonderful for massaging around tired eyes. Once applied, it smooths out fine lines and wrinkles and makes them look awake and refreshed. I would definitely recommend this to someone." However, not everyone was quite so impressed with the product. One shopper said: "Very disappointed. The colour makes my eyes look worse and does nothing for the appearance." Another buyer wrote: "Feels lovely when applying and absorbs well but that's about it. I've been using this now for 3 months and it's made no difference to dark circles, it's like a watery concealer, and expensive!" Despite this, others continued to heap praise on the Boots product. One excited shopper said: "Was very sceptical at first but then was pleasantly surprised and impressed by the difference in my under eye after I had applied this product, definitely reduces darkness and brightens up the eyes, would buy again. Great product." A fifth wrote: "Wouldn't live without it! Must have! Best product ever! Lightens dark circles, silky and smooth application." Another added: "This stuff is amazing. Genuinely my mind is blown. I bought in the 3 for 2 offer about a month ago. Started using it morning and night as part of my skin regime. "Within a week the thin black/purple bags under my eyes are gone. I use the eye cream too afterwards and I now don't even wear concealer under my eyes now. I used to put it on even if I was going to the bins my eyes were that bad. Not now. Stuff is wonderful!!!"

Is Facetheory's £20 anti-ageing cream too good to be true? I put it to the test
It's very hard to find an affordable anti-ageing cream. As a beauty writer, I know first-hand that prices for good anti-ageing products usually start at around £50, and are often £90 or higher for a measly 50ml formula. But when I spent weeks testing the best anti-ageing creams, one stood out for its remarkable efficacy at a low price. Facetheory's glow-C daily moisturiser with SPF 30 is remarkably good at protecting and rejuvenating skin. For those unfamiliar with Facetheory, the British skincare brand's products are vegan, claim to use backed-by-science ingredients, and the formulations come at relatively affordable prices – it's a brand competing in the same niche as The Ordinary and The Inkey List. The beauty brand has recently had a sleek redesign, with the glow-C face cream now coming in a recyclable aluminium tube. The moisturising formula is a bestseller for the brand, and features the dream team of vitamin C with SPF, but for just a fraction of the price of many similar products. I decided to give this cream another look under closer scrutiny, to see if this budget cream still offers excellence at a fair price point – and if the fancy new redesign is hiding any drops in quality. How I tested I put the day cream to the test for a month, during sunny heatwaves with high UV levels. This enabled me to score the product on how well it protected my skin, as well as its skin-renewing qualities. During testing, I considered a range of key criteria: Formula: I assessed the key ingredients to determine which skin types would be suited to this formula. Application: I noted how easy the product was to apply, and how it felt and looked on the skin. Results: I considered any immediate effects and long-term benefits.

After speaking to expert dermatologists for their advice, she's reviewed everything from the best neck creams to retinol eye creams to find the best value products that actually make an impact on fine lines and pigmentation.
