Serums have stepped up their game. If you haven’t yet invested in an advanced anti-ageing formula, we’ve tried and tested some of the best in the business – here is our G&G recommended edit.
NEAL’S YARD REMEDIES FRANKINCENSE INTENSE CONCENTRATE
For an organic option, we love this three-peptide complex from NYR. Using nourishing argan oil and frankincense, it claims to reduce wrinkles and fine lines in a mere 30 minutes, leaving skin smooth and hydrated.
AROMATHERAPY ASSOCIATES INSTANT SKIN FIRMING SERUM
This fast-working beauty combines algae extracts and pomegranate seed extracts to restore firmness and battle wrinkles. On top of that, it acts as a protector against environmental damage.

KIEHL’S PRECISION LIFTING & PORE TIGHTENING CONCENTRATE
If sagging skin is your concern, try this tightening serum from Kiehl’s. Visibly lifting the skin, it reduces the likes of pores, wrinkles and fine lines, for a redefined face.

ALGENIST POWER ADVANCE WRINKLE FIGHTER SERUM

REN RADIANCE PERFECTION SERUM
For simply better skin, we highly recommend this wonder serum from Ren. Using the likes of vitamin C, glabridin and hyaluronic acid, it helps to reboot your skin’s energy cycle. In turn, this means age spots and blemishes are reduced; plus the skin is more evenly toned, softer and radiant.
DERMALOGICA MULTI VITAMIN POWER SERUM
Combining vitamins A, C and E with protein peptide, this boosts skin’s elasticity and defends the skin against ageing. It also decreases those fine lines and age spots, resulting in a more youthful look.

Pep up tired complexions with this tri-radiance complex product, which instantly rehydrates dull and dry skin. Protecting against the signs of ageing, skin will be smoother, firmer and plumper. Win win!

EMMA HARDIE MIDAS TOUCH FACE SERUM
Using the super clever Edelweiss Miristem cell culture, this collagen-boosting serum will help to fade out wrinkles and fine lines. What’s more, the likes of avocado, retilactyl D and hyaluronic acid means your complexion will be radiant, firmer and softer than ever.
BEETOX SERUM
We all know that bee vemon and manuka honey are fab for the skin, so it makes sense why this serum would combine the pair. This nourishing concoction fights against the signs of ageing, supports cell regeneration and leaves skin seriously soft.
