Please
allow me to share this anti-ageing story. I recently met a woman I used to go
to school with via a business contact, and post greet duly looked her up on
Facebook – as you do. Now, if my memory
serves me right she was always a year above me at school, but on her Facebook profile
she was now miraculously seven years younger than myself! Without trying to
sound too catty, the seven years she had shaved off her birth date hadn’t done
her any justice. She looked good for age. Her true age, and to delete seven of
them was foolhardy in my opinion.
My stance
on ageing is simple. Look good for your age category. Obviously teens and 20’s
don’t have too much to worry about as Mother Nature is on their side, but once
you hit your 30’s tougher action needs to be taken other than manipulating your
birth year. Some go for non-invasive procedures such as Botox and fillers,
myself I prefer to rely on ingredient led skincare. Anything with lifting and
tightening gets my full attention.
My newest
discovery is La Prairie Skin Caviar Liquid Lift. If you’re looking for the
Bentley of serums, this is it. It’s an experience opening its grand silver
cylinder, whereby the hallowed cobalt blue bottled serum is proudly mounted on
grey felt. As its name suggests, it offers the highest concentration of pure
Caviar Extract of any of their skincare treatments with the added va-va-voom of
being combined with a unique Recovery Complex that alters the skin’s basic
structure for long-term firmness.
Before I
continue let me tell you the price tag. £304. Yes, that’s right, you’ve read it
right. £304! I’m mentioning this early in the copy, rather than at the end so
you get over the shock. But in its defence – it’s bloody marvellous! The minute
you pump and apply, the skin looks smoother – almost de-stressed. There’s no
tightening sensation on the skin, so it doesn’t leave your skin feeling
unnatural. Skin feels nourished thanks to its combination of vitamins, nucleic
acids, phospholipids, proteins and Omega-3 fatty acids. Without getting too
technical there’s also an exciting new pentapeptide and an exclusive Cellular
Complex all of which add up to making it a deluxe five star skin experience. My
husband has noticed a difference. Now that’s a miracle! I wouldn’t say I look
younger, but most definitely fresher in tone and somehow my skin looks like it’s had a
daily yoga workout. As for the price? It does work out less than a £1 a day for
the whole year!
La
Prairie Skin Caviar Liquid Lift available from Urban Retreat at Harrods,
Selfridges and selected House of Fraser stores.
