Advantages: Tones and tightens the skin

Disadvantages: Doesn't knock 20 years off my age!

Garnier Skin Naturals Ultralift anti wrinkle day cream is a product I have been using for a couple of years now. I have used various Garnier products and have never suffered any irritation on my sensitive skin and this is what prompted me to give this one a try. Also, being on the wrong side of 50, I hoped it would help with the appearance of my wrinkles and fine lines. I really want to look 20 years younger but short of cosmetic surgery I don't think there's a cat in Hells chance of that! But I live in eternal hope!

** What The Blurb Says**
The Ultralift range has been specially designed for skin that is showing signs of ageing, suffered loss of skin elasticity and firmness.
Using natural ingrediants, including 10 times more concentrated ginger than before,helps to decrease deep wrinkles and and firm the skin.
As you can see from the picture this cream comes in a red glass pot with a white domed screw off lid. The cream itself is white and of a thick consistency which spreads easily over the skin. It is lightly fragranced and whilst I can't put my finger on what it smells like it is very pleasant.

** Directions for Use**
Warm up a small amount of cream between your hands and apply to thoroughly cleansed skin in light upwards circular movements. Massage stimulates the skins micro circulation and improves the appearance.
I use this every morning after cleansing and toning and find a couple of pea sized blobs is generally ample to cover my whole face. On application I can feel it tightening the skin especially around the cheekbone area and the laughter lines from the sides of my nose down to the corners of my mouth. The forehead feels more taut as well but not in a way which makes me feel I am wearing a mask just firmer and more toned. This effect can be felt for some time and is in no way uncomfortable.

** So does it Work?**
Well yes and no! I don't look 20 years younger but I do feel when I am wearing it that my skin feels and looks more toned. The wrinkles and fine lines are still there but not quite so prominent as they are without wearing the cream.My skin absorbs the cream quickly and feels moisturised and soft without any tackiness to the touch.
.
So all in all I would say it is a very good moisturing face cream which does help with skin tone and elasticity but not a miracle cream that will make all your lines disappear like magic.
** Ingredients**
Glycolic acid
Hyaluaronic acid
Skin relaxing Ginger
Wheat Proteins
Cherry Extract

** Other Items in the Range**
Ultralift Intensive Daycream
Daycream with SPF15

I bought my 50ml pot from Superdrug for £7.99 but it can be found on offer regularly. Feelunique ( formerly Island Cosmetics) retail it for £6.99 inclusive of delivery and it can also be found in most good supermarkets and chemists.

So in conclusion a good moisturiser at a reasonable price that will help with the look of wrinkles , fine lines and skin tone but won't knock 20 years off your age!
