I'm in my 60s — I put this $13 'Botox in a bottle' from a Canadian brand to the test
Shoppers are obsessed with this affordable anti-aging product. But does it live up to the hype? Aging is a natural part of life, but if you're not so into fine lines and wrinkles, you might want to check out The Ordinary's Argireline Solution 10% Serum for Facial Wrinkles. The Canadian company's serum has been dubbed "Botox in a bottle" by shoppers, and the best part? It's super affordable, ringing in at under $15. The brand's website categorizes it as a "non-injective solution for dynamic lines" specifically designed to target signs of aging. The serum almost seems too good to be true, so both my mom — who's in her 60s — and I decided to put it to the test to see if it lives up to the claims. Scroll down for our honest review. The Ordinary Argireline Solution 10% Serum for Facial Wrinkles review: What is it and what are the claims? The Ordinary's Argireline Solution serum is formulated to target skincare concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles, thanks to an Argireline Peptide Complex. As outlined on Sephora, this complex allegedly helps improve the overall appearance of the eye area and forehead, which are two prominent spots on the face that are most prone to creasing or developing folds in the skin. This affordable serum also features a lightweight texture. For best results, it's recommended to apply a few drops to the forehead and around the eye area twice a day. As The Ordinary's website suggests, you can incorporate this product into your routine after cleansing and before applying any anhydrous serums, oils, suspensions, or creams. also recommends avoiding the use of products featuring Direct acids, Direct/Ethylated Vitamin C, and Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3% in the same skincare regimen as The Ordinary's Argireline Solution contains Peptides. First impressions As someone in her 60s, my mom is always on the hunt for new products to help target fine lines and wrinkles, so she was excited to give The Ordinary's Argireline Solution a go. This was her skin in the morning before she applied the serum — right after cleansing. She then applied a few drops of the Argireline Solution to her forehead and around the eye area, as recommended. Although she didn't notice a drastic physical change, my mom did note that the product felt tightening upon application, firming her skin after use. Best of beauty: I'm a dermatologist — 3 'universal' skincare staples I always recommend for anti-aging Cheekbone Beauty is Canadian, Indigenous-owned and sustainable — and these celebrities are 'adamant' about using it I'm a celebrity esthetician — this is the 'gold standard' for anti-aging Then, it was my turn. As a 27-year-old, I have always been curious about elevating my skincare routine and have become increasingly interested in finding preventative products that can reduce the look of fine lines as I age. As a result, I was eager to put The Ordinary's Argireline Solution to the test to see if it would actually work on both young and mature skin. Similarly to my mom, I applied a few drops of the lightweight serum to my forehead and eye area after cleansing. I, too, immediately noticed a tightening sensation after application but no immediate physical results- except for my skin appearing to look slightly smoother. It's important to note that it is recommended to use this product twice daily, so we will likely see improved results through more consistent use. What shoppers are saying This affordable serum has a 4-star rating on Sephora, based on more than 400 customer reviews. "Love this product," raved one shopper who deemed it "a staple" for them. "I'm on my third bottle," they added. One 72-year-old customer who has "spent thousands on expensive products" said, "I believe I found the holy [grail with] this stuff!" They said that after "a few weeks," their "fine lines have lessened," and their "deeper lines have softened" — even their "neck wrinkles." However, other shoppers claimed to have not seen any "noticeable improvements" after use, alleging that the product does not minimize the appearance of wrinkles as claimed. Is it worth it? It's worth noting that some skincare solutions take a couple of weeks to perform, so we decided to consistently use this product day and night, as recommended, to see if it garners any notable results. Consistency seems to be key when it comes to The Ordinary's Argireline Solution, as verified by other Sephora shoppers who have used and loved the product. Here's what we noticed after diligently using The Ordinary's Argireline Solution day and night for the past two weeks: Although my mom didn't notice a significant physical difference in her appearance, she did note that her skin felt smoother. For the price, she found that The Ordinary's Argireline Solution was definitely worth a try, and she will continue to use the product to monitor how her skin looks over time. After two weeks of consistent use, I, too, didn't notice a huge difference in the way my skin looked. However, I don't have excessive fine lines or wrinkles, so I may consider this to be more of a preventative skincare product in my everyday beauty routine. That said, I did appreciate how smooth my skin felt after use. I agree that this product is worth the hype in terms of the price tag if you're looking for an affordable way to improve skin smoothness and firmness. Even though it truthfully may be too early to claim that this product is "Botox in a bottle," our opinions may change after more consistent use, so we recommend giving it a fair shot (no pun intended) if you're looking to try it out yourself — especially for $13.

What is an everything shower? Beauty experts reveal the most important steps
Let the everything shower take over your wash routine. This complete head-to-toe ritual is designed to leave you feeling refreshed, moisturized and truly pampered. To master the everything shower, start with a high-quality body scrub to exfoliate and prep your skin. Eha Urbsalu, Founder of Viking Beauty Secrets, says that for dry skin, gentle exfoliation is key. She recommends using natural textures to smooth without stripping. "Exfoliating removes buildup so your skin can fully absorb the nourishment from oils and creams, rather than letting it sit on the surface," Urbsalu said. Swap your regular body wash for a hydrating, creamy formula that locks in moisture. Don't forget to nourish your hair with a rich shampoo and a deep conditioning treatment. For sensitive or eczema-prone skin, Melanie Abeyta, Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner and Owner of Harmony Aesthetics Center, recommends choosing a fragrance-free product with soothing ingredients such as colloidal oatmeal, allantoin or niacinamide. "Cream-based cleansers or cleansing oils are better than scrubs for these skin types, which can be easily irritated," Abeyta said. "People with very dry skin benefit from richer oil-based washes while those with normal skin may only need a lighter hydrating wash." The final, crucial step happens post-shower: while your skin is still damp, apply a rich body oil or lotion to seal in all the moisture. People of all skin types should avoid formulas containing harsh or irritating ingredients that can worsen dryness rather than relieve it, according to Valerie Aparovich, a biochemist and certified cosmetologist-aesthetician at OnSkin. Read on to find the perfect products to include in your everything shower routine: Scalp scrubs and clarifying shampoos are essential for removing product buildup and excess oil. Use a hair mask for deep conditioning. Ouai Detox Shampoo is formulated with key ingredients, including apple cider vinegar, to exfoliate and remove dirt, oil and product buildup, as well as chelating agents to help wash away hard water deposits. This shampoo also contains hydrolyzed keratin to help strengthen hair, leaving it feeling clean, soft and refreshed without stripping it of its natural oils. The Chronologiste detoxifying charcoal pre-shampoo is a luxurious option for a thorough scalp cleanse before shampooing. It is formulated with charcoal to remove buildup and hyaluronic acid to hydrate and unclog pores, which creates a healthier environment for hair growth. This hair mask is praised for its restorative properties. It penetrates the hair fiber to repair broken molecular bonds for a lasting restoration. This leads to immediate and dramatic results; users often say their hair feels "like silk" after just one use. It's an at-home version of a professional salon treatment. Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair! hair mask is a popular weekly treatment for hydrating and nourishing dry strands. The formula achieves this by providing a crucial balance of protein and moisture, which are the essential building blocks of healthy hair. The mask strengthens the hair shaft, reduces breakage and restores moisture. The Honey Gloss Ceramide Therapy Hydrating Hair Mask intensely nourishes and strengthens hair. It is formulated with key ingredients like Mirsalehi honey, which acts as a natural humectant to hydrate and add shine, along with biomimetic ceramides and hyaluronic acid. Using exfoliators and moisturizing body washes will leave your skin in top shape. The Bum Bum Body Scrub exfoliates and smooths the skin, known for its distinctive scent. It uses microbead-free ingredients, such as crushed cupuacu seeds and sugar crystals, to gently buff away dead skin. The formula is enriched with nourishing coconut oil and guarana for hydration and a tightening effect. Original price: $8.99 Tree Hut shea sugar body scrubs use real sugar to gently buff away dry skin while shea butter and a blend of natural oils – including avocado and sweet almond – deeply moisturize. The result is soft, smooth and hydrated skin. The Nécessaire Body Wash is a rich, non-drying cleanser that gently cleans the skin and supports the skin's protective barrier. This body wash is also enriched with vitamins, omegas and a microdose of exfoliants to improve skin health. Try Salt & Stone's Body Wash Discovery Set to experience the brand's popular, nature-inspired scents. Each body wash in the set is formulated with nourishing ingredients, including seaweed extracts, hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, to provide a rich, hydrating lather that leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth. The Dove Body Wash Deep Moisture nourishes the skin's protective layer and provides a rich, creamy lather that leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and healthy. Moisturizing after showering is perhaps the most crucial step of any everything shower routine. La Roche-Posay's Lipikar AP+ Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream is formulated for very dry, sensitive skin. Its "triple repair" action restores the skin's barrier and provides 48-hour hydration. The Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Dream body cream is a lightweight, hydrating body moisturizer. It's designed to smooth and soften skin using watermelon seed butter and hyaluronic acid for moisture, plus hibiscus to gently exfoliate. This blend improves the texture of bumpy skin and absorbs quickly, leaving behind a silky-soft feel and a healthy glow. For more deals, visit The Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream is a fast-absorbing body cream formulated to tighten and smooth skin. Its formula features a blend of Brazilian-sourced ingredients like guarana extract for firmness, cupuacu butter for hydration, and acaí oil for antioxidants.
