And Not only this, but Margaret Fyffe, 77, also swears by No7 products. Posting on social media, Amy Fyffe shared a clip alongside her gorgeous nanny, as she asked her relative: 'What's the biggest thing for good skin?' To this, Margaret then shared the habits she lives by as she confirmed: 'I don't smoke and I don't drink.' Following on from this, Margaret then revealed what she uses on her skin in the morning and at night. To kick off her night-time routine, Margaret got candid on her boiling water hack, as she shared: 'I boil my water in the kettle and then I put it in the basin, let it cool and then I put in my face cloth and then I'll give my face a wee clean.' Following this, Margaret uses the No7 Cleansing Toning Water, which she pre-soaks on cotton wool. She expressed: 'Then I get my toner and I just put a little drop on cotton wool…They get soaked in boiling water as well.' After applying her toner, which retails at £9.95, Margaret then goes in with the No7 Future Renew Night Serum, which doesn't come cheap and will set shoppers back £39.95. Following this, she uses the No7 Lift & Luminate Triple Action Night Cream, which is £29.95, as she continued: 'And then a wee while later before I go to bed, I put the night cream on.' I hated my wrinkled skin, so I spent £4k to have the top layer taken off, people can't believe I'm the same person To finish off her night-time routine, Margaret uses the No7 Pure Retinol 0.3% Retinol Night Concentrate, another pricey buy that's £37.95. Then, when she wakes up in the morning, Margaret explained: 'I do the same again with the basin and the cloth and then I get my toner on.' How to reverse ageing in just 2 weeks, according to royal go-to nutritionist LONDON -based Gabriela Peacock, who has helped the likes of Prince Harry and Princess Eugenie prepare for their weddings. She told Fabulous: 'The science is evident that we all have the power to make simple life changing alterations to better our future selves - no matter what genetic hand we might have been dealt with. 'The reality is, we all sometimes indulge in unhealthy eating habits like processed foods, smoking cigarettes, drinking too much alcohol, inhaling city pollutants, and even drinking water from plastic bottles – none of this is good for us. 'All this does is promote the ageing process, but we all have the potential to change this.' It may be hard, but try to keep away from sugary carbohydrates, because they feed chronic inflammation, which is one of the worst enemies of reversing ageing. Now only will you end up putting on weight if you consume them regularly, but your energy and hormonal levels will be affected and this will influence how you look and feel. Whatever your age or state of health, it's never too late to reverse how quickly you are ageing and embrace the energy and vigour of a younger you. Antioxidants, such as vitamins A, C, and E, are essential in neutralising free radicals—the culprits behind premature ageing. Integrating a spectrum of colourful fruits and vegetables into your diet provides a potent source of antioxidants. Omega-3 fatty acids, abundant in fatty fish like salmon and flaxseeds, are vital for maintaining skin elasticity and hydration. Omega-3s act as nourishment for your skin, locking in moisture and diminishing fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen, a structural protein dwindling with age, can be replenished through collagen-rich foods like bone broth and lean protein sources. It's only two steps in the morning for Margaret, as following this, the pensioner applies the No7 Restore & Renew Multi Action Day Cream, which is £32.95. Following this, Amy recognised: 'So you're sticking with the brand, that's good - means your skin won't react.' In response, Margaret beamed: 'I like No7.' 8 Margaret also uses No7 Retinol before bed Credit: Tiktok/@amyfyffe_ 8 Just before she goes to sleep, she lathers her face in No7 Night Cream Credit: Tiktok/@amyfyffe_ Beauty fans beam Amy's TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @amyfyffe_, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up over 6,200 views. Skincare fans were impressed with Margaret's advice and raced to the comments to praise her youthful-looking appearance. She's some woman, probably spent £1m on No7 products TikTok user One person said: 'I love this, she's so cute.' Another added: 'Your nanny looks so beautiful and young.' A third commented: 'Looking gorgeous.' Meanwhile, someone else gasped: 'She's some woman, probably spent £1m on No7 products.' In response, Amy wrote back and laughed: 'Accurate.'

"It's literally the best lipstick ever." Biggest skincare trends for 2025 Face The Future's Head of Clinic, Kimberley Medd, shared the five skincare trends predicted to take off in 2025. 1. Exosomes Exosomes are the buzzword for 2025, taking advanced skin regeneration to new heights. These micro-messengers signal skin cells to repair damage, boost collagen, and accelerate recovery, and they're a gamechanger for targeting ageing. 2. Streamlined Skincare The age of 12-step routines is fading as consumers shift to more intentional, multi-functional products. Streamlining skincare not only saves time but also reduces the risk of overloading your skin. In 2025, we'll see a rise in hybrid products that combine active ingredients for simplified, effective results. 3. Vegan Collagen Plant-based collagen will dominate the skincare world this year, providing a sustainable, ethical alternative to traditional animal-derived collagen. Expect vegan collagen in everything from moisturisers to serums. 4. The Rise Of AI AI is revolutionising the beauty landscape, making it possible for consumers to get truly personalised skincare solutions. In 2025, we predict a dramatic shift towards AI-powered tools that help people understand their skin on a deeper level. 5. Hair Loss Solutions - Hair loss is an issue that affects more men than we often realise, and it's no longer just something we're talking about behind closed doors. This year, expect to see a continued rise in demand for treatments that not only tackle hair loss but also nurture overall scalp health.
