Hailey Bieber and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's go-to anti-ageing cream has ‘dramatic' wrinkle reduction
Medik8's r-Retinoate Intense anti-ageing cream is a staple in the beauty routines of both Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Hailey Bieber and it's now got 20% off for a limited time When it comes to skincare, taking advice from a super model is usually a pretty safe bet. They're known for their expert skills at protecting, repairing and boosting their complexions, so any products they consider a must-have go right to the top of our beauty wishlists. So when we found out that both Hailey Bieber and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley – who are both known for their flawless skin – are huge fans of Medik8's r-Retinoate Intense cream, we knew it couldn't just be coincidence. The anti-ageing cream is touted as having 'dramatic' wrinkle reduction, not to mention quick and effective results, with visible changes said to be visible in as little as four weeks. The r-Retinoate Intense is usually priced at £229 for a 50ml container, however Medik8 is currently running a huge summer sale, which includes the celeb-loved anti-ageing cream. Currently it has a 20% discount, bringing the price down to £183.20 and saving you almost £45. Now we know this is still quite the splurge for many, so there are other retinol-infused night creams around that are a little more affordable. A 50ml tub of the Olay Retinol 24 MAX Night Cream Face Moisturiser is currently £21.99 down from £44 at Amazon, whilst Paula's Choice has slashed the price of its 50ml Anti-Aging Intensive Repair Moisturiser from £39 to £31.20. You can also pick up Perricone MD's High Potency Retinol Recovery Overnight Moisturizer for £30 for a 7.5ml tub. However, the r-Retinoate Intense comes highly recommended by plenty of celebs and A-listers, making it a great choice for those whose budgets will stretch to it. One reason the anti-ageing cream is such a favourite product is because of how quick and effective it is at showing results. It's said to take as little as four weeks for your skin to look brighter, firmer and smoother, as well as giving your skin 'dramatic wrinkle and dark spot reduction' in the same time frame. It's eight times stronger and 11 times faster acting than a typical retinol, with the r-Retinoate Intense 's formula using a blend of retinal and encapsulated retinyl retinoate that's exclusive to Medik8. It also combines five different anti-ageing technologies into one night cream, cutting down your routine time and giving you the same results. It also has an impressive 4.85 out of 5 star rating, which means it's not just A-listers who've seen great results from using the cream. One wrote: 'I love this. It makes my night-time regime so easy, one and done, no top coat of moisturizer needed. And I wake up looking better. It's not greasy and it doesn't dry out my skin.' Another agreed: 'This product is amazing, my skin feels so plump, soft and fresh.' Whilst a third chimed in: 'I love this product. It is pricey but I can definitely see an improvement in my skin. Fine lines have almost disappeared.' Of course, not all products will work for everyone, with one shopper saying: 'Sadly, however I applied this I experienced pilling. I even tried using a Medik8 cleanser (I normally use a micellar water from another brand) but still found it pilled. I also found it wasn't moisturising enough and woke with a few dry patches. Shame as I really wanted to love this so I could simplify my nighttime routine. Customer service were really helpful and made various suggestions but I continued to have the same issue so am reluctantly returning it However, others couldn't stop praising the r-Retinoate Intense, with one writing: 'Definitely at the higher age group and more. I have looked after my skin since a teenager, so it was pretty good. I have been using the r-retinoate range and pleased with that; but this takes it to a new level. A male friend even noted that I seem to be getting younger!'

Olay retinol that's ‘the best night cream' is cut from £44 to £19 in better than Boots deal
Amazon shoppers have praised the Olay Retinol moisturiser as being one of 'the best night creams' around, and it's now got 55% off making it a better bargain than at Boots When it comes to your evening skincare routine, you want something that's streamlined, efficient and actually works so you don't need to spend hours on your regime before bed. Products that combine two results in one are therefore an absolute god send when it's late at night and you just want to get to sleep. That's why plenty of shoppers have raved about the Olay Retinol 24 MAX Night Cream, which combines anti-ageing and skin renewing properties of a serum with the hydration and skin-smoothing of a moisturiser. Although it's usually quite a splurge at £44, Amazon has currently included it in a limited time offer which sees it slashed by 55% to £19.98, saving you more than £24. This deal also rivals Boots, where the same cream is currently reduced from £43.99 to £21.99, making it £2 more expensive – plus Amazon Prime members have the added bonus of free next day delivery. The Olay Retinol 24 MAX Night Cream boosts your skin's moisture levels with 50% more hydrating ingredients, and is touted as being able to transform the softness and smoothness of your skin in just one overnight use. It also helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles long term. It contains retinyl propionate, which reaches deep into your skin's layers to smooth out texture, as well as vitamin E and 50% more glycerin for a soft, smooth look. If you're looking for other options, Paula's Choice's Anti-Aging Intensive Repair Moisturiser is also currently on sale, down from £39 to £33.15. It has an ultra-rich formula with 0.2% retinol to reinforce the skin's barrier and smooths fine lines, whilst still being a gentle way to introduce retinol to your routine. The Intelligent Retinol Smoothing Night Cream from Medik8 also comes highly recommended, with slow-release 0.2% retinol which is gentle enough for retinol beginners. It is however slightly pricier than the other options, at £60 for a 50ml jar. However the Olay Retinol 24 MAX Night Cream is also great for introducing retinol into your night time routine without worrying about damaging your skin barrier. Amazon shoppers have also been fans of the moisturiser, with some saying they've used it for years with great results. One wrote: 'Love this I've been using it for years it keeps skin from developing fine lines into wrinkles.' Another agreed: 'This is an excellent cream. The face feels soft after I put it on at night. It's also fast absorbing, which ensures that there is no residue on my pillow when sleeping.' Whilst a third added: 'One of the best night creams for combined skin.' Some found it less effective, writing: 'Not really that impressed find no difference and leaves my skin a bit dry.' Which another agreed with: 'Seems a good cream but I'm not sure it's great for a more mature skin. It absorbs well but for me not very moisturising.' Others loved it though, saying: 'Wonderful night cream. Feels silky and easily and quickly absorbed into skin. Helps to keep my skin hydrated. Good price.' And another praised: 'Lovely. Moisturising with a silky feel. My skin looks fresh & clear.' You can save £24 on the Olay Retinol 24 MAX Night Cream at Amazon now.
