The beflattered team, all in their 40s, 50s and 60s have tried and tested loads of great products available to all in the market place. Read our take on products to help with Dry and Thirsty Skin.
We believe that effective skincare is key to looking great and staying young.
Our first port of call is to keep up a good skin cell turnover and since ageing skin sheds skin cells more slowly this is a must. To remove the dead and dull cells from the top of your skin and reveal radiant new ones.
First ask yourself if your skin is flaky and rough – if so we think a gentle cleanser and peel is the first step to remove old skin cells and allow your skincare to work more effectively.
We really love .
Gentle enough to use every day and has been specifically formulated with AHAs from lactic acid that work by loosening or breaking up the thick outer layer of skin. This exfoliating activity helps to smooth the skin’s texture.
Lactic acid also has the fantastic benefit of kick-starting your skin into its natural regeneration, stimulating collagen and the skin growth cycle. But as it contains Avocado Fruit Extract as well the skin moistures levels are kept in check.
This wash off cleanser is also a great prep. product for removing dead cells and unclogging pores so your Cosmeceuticals can penetrate better for even more dramatic results!
Add to this .
This is our favorite glycolic peel as it is easy to use and does the job effectively. This product gives you professional results of a non invasive chemical peel at home! It uses the same ingredients as professional peels used by cosmetic surgeons, but at a gentler concentration for gradual skin renewal. This unique 12-week program will gently and effectively slough away dead, dull skin to reveal fresh, bright, younger looking skin.
But if your skin is dry, parched and shiny then we think a little bit of TLC is the best route for cleansing and we think with Damask Rose Oil and buttermilk leaves your skin soft and smooth and cared for. This cleanser gently exfoliates to reveal fresher, younger looking skin that is soft, nourished and smoothed.

The key to the effectiveness of Organic Apoteke is the way the active ingredients are delivered to where they are needed in the skin. This is via multiple micro-emulsion technology.
Organic Apoteke’s unique active complexes, are 'wrapped' in eight layers of botanical oils and floral waters, and are designed to unfold into the skin, infusing it with nutrients as they pass from layer to layer.
Its Pentapeptide Complex acts like a supplement to collagen and elastin, providing the building blocks required to maintain a healthy skin structure for firmer, wrinkle reduced, younger-looking skin.
And don’t let your hard work go to waste – from now on ALWAYS protect your skin from UV light. We like with UVA and UVB protection A superb non greasy facial moisturiser from Skin Doctors that protects skin from the damaging effects of the sun and maximises the results of your cosmeceutical treatments.
And if you just can’t live without a suntan try faking it. We think the best out there is .
Fake Bake has combined its award winning self-tan formula (containing premium DHA and Erythulose for longer lasting, natural looking results) with the latest anti-ageing ingredient - PhytoCellTecTM Malus Domestica, created from stem cells extracted from the rare Swiss apple Uttwiler Spätlauber. So a real double hit of colour and Anti Ageing so you can have your cake and eat it!
Beauty from Within
It’s well known that what you eat reflects in your skin – eat junk consistently and your skin will, over time show it. Even if you eat a reasonable diet, the nutrients in food cannot always be guaranteed, so taking a good Multi-Vitamin and Mineral supplement is good health and skin insurance. For general all round skin care from within we like a good dose of Flax Seed Oil, or chose a good ready made Organic Beauty Oil Complex to take internally every day.
With so much information around we know how easy it is to be confused so have a look at our Top Tips to Young Looking Skin and Foods that Feed Your Skin and see if we can make it a bit clearer for you.
