I’m in my 40s but look two decades younger – a £6.95 Boots buy makes your skin so soft & fades wrinkles within weeks
A WOMAN who is 41 but looks like she is in her twenties, has revealed that her skin glows thanks to a £6 oil from Boots.
Maggie Rose often shares skincare tips on her social media channels, and is often flooded with comments from fans, who say they can’t believe she isn’t 22.
In one video, the skincare whizz shared her love for castor oil.
She said that when she began using the oil, she noticed that her skin was “so soft”.
“Castor oil is so hydrating”, she said.
She revealed that this is because the oil penetrates down into the deeper layers of skin.
After using the oil, mixed with rosehip oil and black seed oil, she said that her wrinkles began to fade.
Then, her sun spots she used to have on her face faded away.
Maggie explained that rosehip oil also helped to reduce the hyperpigmentation on her face.
“It’s supposed to be a natural source of tretinoin”, she said.
The skincare fan said that using a mixture of castor oil, rose hip oil and black seed oil is her “holy grail”.
“It’s my first love”, she added.
You can pick up castor oil for £6.95, from Boots, and rosehip oil for £7.
Black seed oil can be purchased from Morrisons, also for £7.
Maggie’s video, posted under the username @maggieroseadvocate, has likely left many people impressed, as it has racked up over 1.4 million views on the video sharing platform.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments sections to share their thoughts.
