Eye cream that makes skin ‘less puffy and wrinkled' has 20% off
Using one of the best eye creams can be an effective way to diminish signs of ageing, and shoppers think they've found a gentle yet effective formula for reduces bags and fine lines
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.

Anti-ageing Medik8 SPF hailed for not leaving ‘sticky or residue' is on sale
If you're looking for a skincare gem that battles visible signs of ageing while also protecting your skin from UV damage through the summer and beyond, look no further than this Medik8 cream Step up your skincare routine with a multi-tasking cream from the cult-favourite beauty brand Medik8, and save some cash at the same time. This Medik8 Advanced Day Ultimate Protect SPF50+ works to tackle visible signs of ageing while also protecting against future damage that can contribute to complexion woes. Normally retailing for £59, this anti-ageing SPF cream is currently on sale at Lookfantastic with a whopping 20% off, saving shoppers £12. The daily hydrating day cream with SPF50+ PA++++ protects the skin from UV rays and pollution and banishes signs of premature ageing. Defending against the sun's rays, the Medik8 Advanced Day Ultimate Protect keeps your skin safe from UVA/UVB rays, blue light, infrared light, and pollution. The formula utilises advanced UV filters to deliver high-performance protection against sunlight. Encapsulated photolyase, an enzyme derived from plankton extract, helps to minimise the visible signs of ageing caused by UV rays, such as fine lines, crow's feet, wrinkles, and dark spots. The moisturiser uses the brand's unique 360° environmental shield. Its formula contains blueberry seed oil and carnosine, which work to prevent skin damage from oxidative stressors. The cream also contains hyaluronic acid and squalane, which hydrate the skin, leaving it feeling protected and nourished all day long. During Medik8's tests, 94% of users agreed that the Advanced Day Ultimate Protect leaves the skin feeling moisturised all day, perfect for this time of year when the warmer, drier weather leaves skin parched and in need of nourishment. Over at Lookfantastic, plenty of customers have shared their love for this skincare gem. One 5-star reviewer writes: "Very happy to use this daycream, not only because of its spf but also for his hydrating. Even though it is a cream rather than a lotion , my foundation still goes on smoothly and not greasy. It's a winner." Further praise comes from this shopper who says: "Like all medik8 products, it's perfect! Easy to apply, rich moisturiser and it's giving full protection from harmful rays. It's still lovely as a base for foundation and doesn't feel greasy at all on my combination skin. It's my second tube and I'm a big fan." A third buyer beams: " Love this moisturiser with sunscreen. It works and my skin feels great and protected all day. Highly recommend for someone who is short of tine in the morning." And even more accolades come from this customer who raves: "I do have hyper sensitive skin and getting rushing from everything, this cream is the only one that works for me- no break outs! Will buy again, it gives skin light summer glow and protection is perfect. Definitely recommend!" A fifth gushes: "I have used various other SPF 50 sunscreens previously and they have always had down sides such as being too greasy on the skin or not sitting well under make-up. Not with this one! This is absorbed very quickly and feels extremely hydrating yet non-greasy! No pilling under make-up either! Well done Medik8!" And this shopper shares: " My go to sunscreen! Keeping me young forever! I love the fact that it has PA++++ which protects my skin from the screen damage!" You can pick up this SPF cream from Lookfantastic or Amazon at the reduced price of £47.20. Or, if you don't mind paying the full price, Sephora, Cult Beauty, and Medik8 are selling it for £59.

‘This new vitamin C serum is the only one that doesn't irritate my problem skin'
'I've been testing out this new skin-brightening vitamin C serum for months and can confirm it's a game-changer for blemish-prone skin like mine,' says our beauty editor Skin experts agree that vitamin C is one of the best skincare ingredients you can add to your routine, proven to be effective at brightening and evening the skin, defending against future damage, and tackling other signs of ageing. Vitamin C serums and creams, though, aren't always tolerated well by all skin types, including sensitive or spot-prone complexions – both of which apply to me. However, I've been testing Medik8's brand new serum, and it's a game-changer for problem skin like mine. Medik8 already makes a few hugely popular vitamin C serums, including the original C-Tetra (a longtime favourite with beauty editors) and C-Tetra Luxe (which has a richer texture). However, both of these are oil-based consistencies, which can block pores in blemish-prone – something I've certainly found in the past. Now Medik8 has just launched its C-Tetra Advanced serum, priced at £69, an effective formula containing 20% stabilised vitamin C in a gel-serum texture, designed to get visibly brighter skin and reduced wrinkles in just seven days. I received a bottle of Medik8 C-Tetra Advanced a few weeks ago ahead of its launch and I've been using it almost every morning since. I was a little dubious about trying it as Medik8's existing vitamin Cs haven't been right for me, but I was so pleasantly surprised by this one; the formula is like a very light, runny cream instead of an oil, sinks into skin quickly, and layers brilliantly with my other skincare and make-up products (I currently follow it with Medik8's brilliant Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream and my favourite Ultra Violette Future Fluid SPF 50+ Superlight Mineral SKINSCREEN). It did give a slight immediate brightening and evening out effect to my face, but it was about about a week of using it that I really started to notice a difference: my skin felt my much softer and smoother, looked generally more healthy, and my foundation looked fresher and less patchy. I didn't also get any breakouts or irritation (use it every other day at first if you're unsure). Of course, other factors may have affected this result, but I'm thrilled to have finally found a high-performance vitamin C serum that suits my skin. One point I'd flag is that it's not as hydrating as soon of my other favourite serums; usually I can go straight from serum to SPF in the mornings, but using this, I do need to apply a moisturiser in between. For this reason I think that this new launch is best for those with combination-to-oily skin, while anyone with dry skin should probably go for one of Medik8's other vitamin Cs (there's a handy tool on the website to help you to decide which is right for you). C-Tetra Advanced is also quite highly fragranced (probably because vitamin C doesn't usually smell very pleasant); this isn't something I have an issue with, but if you're skin is very sensitive to scent, you may want to go for something like CeraVe Skin Renewing 10% Pure Vitamin C Serum, £29. If you're looking for more alternatives, Facetheory Glow-C Vitamin C 20% Serum contains the same level of vitamin C (20%) but even cheaper at £23.

Sam Thompson suffers injury during gruelling Soccer Aid challenge which leaves his sister Louise 'petrified' and on the 'cusp of having a breakdown'
Sam Thompson has suffered a huge injury during a gruelling multi-marathon challenge which has left his sister Louise 'petrified' and on the 'cusp of having a breakdown'. The I'm A Celeb star, 32, has been given the task to travel a mammoth 260-mile journey on both bike and foot to deliver the match ball to its new home in Old Trafford, with the hope of raising much-needed funds for Unicef. To complete the challenge, Sam is expected to run a marathon for five days and cycle in between, ensuring the ball arrives on June 6, just in time for kickoff on Sunday, June 15. But after running the first marathon Sam has revealed that he has 'popped his calf' and has now been strapped into a medical table with the hope to recover in time for his session on the bike. In his usual happy mood, Sam appeared unphased and ready to carry on despite his family posting distressed-looking videos to social media. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. And his injury has left his sister Louise 'petrified' and on the 'cusp of having a breakdown' as she took to her Instagram Stories to give her followers an update Hits Radio shared a clip of the former reality TV star on the phone where he said: 'I'm just sat on the table. I've got Game Ready on, which is like a bucket ice machine. 'We've completed a marathon. It was going great until my calf popped. Don't really know what that means but something has happened. So I can barely walk on it. 'But we completed the marathon and we are going to do the bike in a bit. Let's see how that goes.' And while Sam appeared in happy spirits, his sister Louise took to her Instagram Stories looking in distress to give her fans an update. She said in the video: 'I cannot believe I am in my dressing gown but desperate times call for desperate measures.' 'I have been following so closely to the Soccer Aid channel, the Instagram, the Instagram Stories, Hits Radio this morning all covering my brother doing his run from here to Manchester. 'And I am literally on the cusp of having a breakdown every time I see stuff. I saw a video of him limping really badly after the first marathon and he has now got to get on a bike and do a really really really long cycle and I am so worried his legs are just going to give in'. Speaking exclusively to MailOnline earlier in the day, Sam opened up about what he believes will be the biggest challenge he'll face over the next five days. But after running the first marathon Sam has revealed that he has 'popped his calf' and has now been strapped into a medical table with the hope to recover in time for his session on the bike He said: 'The hard part of this challenge is gonna be the fear of not completing it. 'That that will, is and will always be the hardest thing in my head is the fear of injury and not being able to play it. 'I just, I have to be able to get of course I finish line. 'And like, you've seen how many people are here. Just letting people down is my biggest weakness, so that is terrifying to me.' Elsewhere, Sam gave an update on his relationship with Samie Elishi as he kicked off the first day of his intense Soccer Aid challenge. While his sister Louise and her partner Ryan Libbey were present at the starting line to show their support, Samie was notably absent. Speaking just moments ahead of the challenge, Sam revealed that several close friends, including best mate Jamie Laing, have remained tight-lipped about whether they'll join him along the way. However, he did confirm whether or not Samie, who he has been dating since April, will be making an appearance. Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, Sam said: 'Throughout the experience, I hope there'll be a few people.' When asked directly if Samie would be making an appearance, he responded: 'I feel like... this is so much more than who I'm dating or hooking up with. 'And I feel like it would take away from what it is going on. You know what I mean? 'You know, If I had a wife or something like, like a girlfriend of years it might be a different. 'I just think that I don't want to do anything that will take away from this challenge and Unicef - the spotlight needs to be on them. 'Like, I'm literally a vehicle. That's how I'm seeing it. I'm just a thing that is running to try and make money, so I want to keep it that way.'
