Daily Record28-05-2025
Harness the power of two powerhouse ingredients, with this two-in-one serum that's 54 percent less on Amazon.
Reducing the appearance of wrinkles is a high priority for many skincare buffs. With an assortment of anti-aging products on the market, it can be hard to know what actually works.
For anyone not wanting to test out a myriad of products, then one that is said to be "clinically proven to reverse five years worth of wrinkles" is the bestselling L'Oréal Paris Age Defying Serum Le Duo (30ml).
This two-in-one serum, which usually retails at a whopping £37.99, has been dropped on Amazon to just £17.39, saving 54 percent off the RRP. Considering rival Boots still stocks it at full price, it's a deal not to be missed.
Unlike similar products on the market, this one harnesses the power of two serums, offering double the ingredients to expertly target wrinkles, firmness, and radiance.
On one side there is a collagen peptide booster that works to help "rebuild firmness", while the other uses vitamins B3 and C to "reignite radiance and even skin tone with two powerhouse vitamins."

Product Description
Suitable for all skin types, the serum duo is said to be fast-absorbing, with 18 percent of users saying that they saw instant firmness, while a further 83 percent of women saw a reduction in wrinkles and 87 percent saw an increase in radiance.
It's not the only two-in-one serum on the market, as the Clarins Double Serum also uses a dual formula to target the signs of ageing linked to lifestyle, with a 30ml on offer at Debenhams for £52, down from £65.
Meanwhile, Boots stocks the Eucerin Anti-Pigment Dual Face Serum for £45, which is another dual serum that boasts two powerhouse ingredients, thiamidol and hyaluronic acid, to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and leave skin looking more even and radiant.
As for the L'Oréal Paris serum, it seems results speak for themselves, as it has earned a 4.3 rating on Amazon based on hundreds of reviews from beauty fans who have said it is "game changer" and the "best serum ever."
Beauty deal of the week
Perfume fans will be keen to hear about a deal we have just spotted at Boots.
Those looking for something "timeless" and "distinctive" might already have Givenchy's Amarige Eau de Toilette on their radar. A favourite since the early 90s, it's got a bit of a cult reputation.
Even better, Boots has just dropped the cost of a large 100ml from £109 to just £54.50, allowing shoppers to save an impressive 50 percent off a beloved perfume.
Its scent makes up a "beautiful bouquet of white flowers", with top notes of tangerine, violet and rosewood being mixed with heart notes of gardenia, mimosa, red fruits and ylang-ylang.
The scent then finishes on "vibrant yet muted" base notes of ambergris, precious woods, musks and vanilla. The bottle, which was designed by perfume legend Pierre Dinand, takes inspiration from the ruffles sleeves of a Bettina Blouse designed by Givenchy.
One shopper who is a devoted fan wrote: "One five-star review read: "I bought this on offer at Boots, it was around £30 cheaper than anywhere else! It has an amazing timeless distinctive scent must be tried!"
A second loyal fan said: "The best perfume of all times! So classy! I'm glad it is back for it has been my signature perfume for more than a decade. Intense. Long lasting. Amazing. Complements galore!"

One five-star review read: "This serum is a game-changer! It leaves my skin feeling hydrated, smoother, and visibly radiant. A luxurious treat that's worth every drop."
Someone else wrote: "The serum feels incredibly refreshing and leaves my skin feeling plump and hydrated. It has a subtle lifting effect that helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
"It has a brightening effect that helps to even out my skin tone and reduce the appearance of dark spots. It also feels very soothing on the skin and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin at all."

One user did criticise the value for money, writing: "Lovely cream but very disappointed how quickly it run out. As you cannot see how much your are using or how much is left. It was a big disappointment that it only lasted four weeks."
Meanwhile, one shopper compared it to the iconic Clarins serum by writing: "Feels and smells divine. Best serum ever! Honestly, as good as Clarins without being expensive."
While another fan added: "I have been using it for a week and there are improvements in my skin. It is a great product and it also smells very nice."

Amazon cuts Fitbit smartwatch by 29% – but shoppers say ‘you can't go wrong' with this £35 alternative

ACTIVITY trackers are one of the simplest ways to take control of your health. Right now, the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 is just £34.93 on Amazon, giving the big-name brands a serious run for their money. Xiaomi Smart Band 10 Smartwatch, £39.99 £34.93 For context, the Fitbit Charge 6, which offers many of the same core features, is currently on sale for £98.99, down from £139.99. That's still a decent price, but when the Xiaomi does the essentials for a third of the cost, it's hard to justify spending more. If you've been eyeing a Fitbit but don't want to drop nearly £100, this is a smart swap. I spotted this gem sitting high on Amazon's best-selling activity trackers list, and it covers all the essentials. You get a bright 1.72-inch AMOLED display, and fitness features like 24/7 heart rate tracking, sleep monitoring, and over 150 exercise modes. Like the Fitbit Charge 6, it's water-resistant up to 50m, so you can take it swimming, and it'll track your heart rate in the pool, which is a rare feature at this price point. It works with both iOS and Android, and keeps you connected with smartphone notifications, alarms, and reminders to move. It's no fad either, research shows fitness trackers could help predict the likelihood of dementia by spotting changes in movement and sleep. Spotting those patterns early could help you make important lifestyle changes sooner. And it keeps up without constant charging, the Xiaomi tracks trends with up to 21 days of battery life, compared to around seven on the Fitbit. It also powers up in about an hour, so you're not constantly tied to a charger. The Fitbit Charge 6 does go further with extras like built-in GPS, Google Maps, Google Wallet, and YouTube Music controls. So if you want those smart features baked in, it might be worth the extra spend. But if you're focused on tracking your activity, sleep, and workouts with a long battery life, the Xiaomi punches well above its weight. And it's not just me, the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 has earned a 4.5-star rating and racked up over 1,000 sales in the past month, with buyers clearly impressed. One reviewer wrote: 'I've purchased fitness trackers over 5 times the price, this is the best fitness tracker anywhere near this price.' Another added: 'I'm very happy with it. Does everything I want it to do and only needs charging once every two weeks.' For a budget-friendly tracker to cover the basics well, this model punches well above its weight. It's not the only bargain I've spotted turning heads on Amazon, with a TSA-approved power bank recently dropped from £130 to just £30. best wireless headphones for running.

Tired Boots shoppers 'can't be without' £32 eye serum for 'saggy' lids slashed to £10

The L'Oréal Paris 2.5% Hyaluronic Acid and Caffeine Revitalift Filler Eye Serum has been reduced by 68% in the Boots £10 Tuesday sale, but shoppers need to be quick Boots £10 Tuesday is back, and just in time for payday, no less. This week, some of the deals are so good they've sold out before we even had a chance to write about them. But, there is one product that shoppers have been raving about that's seen a major price cut from £31.99 to £10, saving more than £20 on the RRP. Until 23.59pm tonight, shoppers can pick up the L'Oréal Paris 2.5% Hyaluronic Acid and Caffeine Revitalift Filler Eye Serum at 68% off, making it cheaper than Amazon where it's £15.60. The eye area is typically the first place to show signs of ageing and fatigue as the skin is ten times thinner and more sensitive. That means that stress, screen time, lack of sleep and pollution often take its toll, leading to dark circles and fine lines. The Revitalift Filler Eye serum has been specifically formulated for the unique eye area and is proven to visibly brighten dark circles and replump eye lines for younger looking eyes. Dermatologist approved, the fragrance-free formula is 'effective on all skin tones', and contains a mix of well-known skin-loving ingredients for effective results. The serum features both macro hyaluronic acid and a higher concentration of micro hyaluronic acid which penetrate deeper into the skin for maximum hydration, while caffeine and 4 per cent niacinamide target dark circles for a brighter complexion. The serum also stars a cooling triple bead applicator for gentle under-eye and eyelid massage, targeting puffiness and rejuvenating weary eyes. According to L'Oreal, it's suitable for use before bedtime or in the morning, claiming it 'quickly absorbs' and 'layers perfectly under makeup'. The affordable serum has been lauded by beauty enthusiasts for giving 'plumper' skin in just a few days. Elsewhere, the Charlotte Tilbury Cryo-Recovery Eye Serum contains IceAwake complex and caffeine, with a skin-cooling applicator tip for eyes that appear depuffed and smoothed. However, it is on the pricier side, coming in at £47. For a more affordable option, there's The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG 30ml for £8.40. This light-textured formula contains an extremely high 5% concentration of caffeine, supplemented with EGCG which can help reduce looks of puffiness and of dark circles in the eye contour. Beauty fans are so impressed with the product, they say they 'can't live without' it. One five-star reviewer said: "I use this eye serum with the rest on the revitalift range and it completes my routine wonderfully! My eyes certainly thank me for it! The wand makes application super easy and it feels refreshing and soothing when putting it on. After a few uses, the skin around my eyes is plumper, my dark circles have disappeared and I look so much more awake and ready for the day ahead. I can't be without this now!' A second raved: "Oh, I love this eye serum. Using it in the morning and my eyes feel so fresh. I usually have very tired eyes with saggy eye lids and puffy dark circles underneath my eyes, all of this kind of disappears within 30 minutes after using it. I specially like the applicator when I can massage the serum into my eye lids and under my eyes. It feels so refreshing. I highly recommend this. Also using it in the evening, just to refresh my eyes after a long day." But others have found the texture to be a little 'greasy' adding: 'I found this to be a bit to greasy, I think the first Time I used it, I use a bit too much, but even with cutting it down, I still found it greasy and hard to soak in the skin. I persevered with it and have found a slight difference to the wrinkles round my eyes and the puffiness has gone, so it does work.' 'Bought this while it was on offer... really blown away!' wrote a fourth. 'Noticed an immediate tightening around the eye area and after two weeks of using twice a day the lines are visibly reduced around my eyes." Shoppers can pick up the L'Oréal Paris 2.5% Hyaluronic Acid and Caffeine Revitalift Filler Eye Serum for £10 today.

Boots drops £28 'miracle' face cream with 'noticeable results' to £10

People have felt their skin 'looks younger' and some claimed that imperfections 'totally disappeared' with this product Beauty shoppers are taking advantage of a deal on a face cream that offers people the chance to "look younger" within weeks. It's usually priced at almost £30, but a flash deal has made this "miracle" pot just £10. Boots has slashed the price of the No7 Protect & Perfect Intense ADVANCED Day Cream from £27.95 down to £10 during the weekly Tuesday flash sale, where dozens of items are reduced to just £10. The cream, infused with SPF15, offers "advanced protection and 24 hours of hydration for visibly younger looking skin", according to the Boots website. It goes on to claim that skin will look "instantly more radiant" after applying, with continued use leading to more results. Boots claim that, after two weeks, skin should "look younger" and a month of use will leave fine lines and wrinkles "visibly reduced." The website adds: "Rest assured the formulation of our advanced skincare products you have come to love remains the same giving you noticeable age-defying results." The Boots cream is said to be suitable for sensitive skin, and ingredients include hyaluronic acid that helps skin stretch and flex, reducing skin wrinkles and lines. There are similar moisturising day creams available for people looking for an alternative, such as Dr H Hyaluronic Acid Anti-Ageing Day Moisturiser (Debenhams, £18.75, down from £220) and L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Filler SPF 50 Day Cream (Superdrug, £14.99, down from £29.99), but No7 fans are taking advantage of this deal to stock up on their supplies. The cream has an overall rating online of 4.2 stars out of 5, with 500 different reviews from Boots shoppers. Lots of people who had bought and used the cream had glowing verdicts of the product, which some have used for years. One said: "I love this cream. It absorbs into your skin quickly and makes your skin feel very smooth." Another added: "I have been using this for a few years, and it suits my skin. It gives a lovely luminous look. I have lots of comments on how good my skin looks so highly recommend it for sensitive skin." A third wrote: "I used to have dry flaky patches on my face which have totally disappeared since using this, my skin is soft, even, and feels firmer. My uneven skin tone looks more even, and my fine lines are visibly reduced. Can't rate it highly enough, to me, it's a miracle product!" There were a few critics, though, as some felt the quality didn't match up to their expectations. Some also found that it caused reactions on their skin, which is why Boots suggests people test with a small patch on their skin to check suitability before applying fully. One said: "Got this as a present. Don't like it as it was very greasy on my skin and felt more like a sunscreen. Might be better if you have very dry skin." And, one more claimed: "The adverts on tv made me want to buy this and because it stated suitable for sensitive skin, I was sure it would be my new favourite. Unfortunately it made my face sting and my skin was so red, I looked sunburned!" However, someone else put: "I find this cream gives my skin a lovely glow after use but never sticky feel. Slightly fragranced but nothing off putting. Long lasting too." And, a fifth shared: "Have been using this cream for a few months, it's brilliant. You only need a small amount and your skin feels fresh and hydrated."
