I’m 37 and my face hasn’t aged in 10 years – I swear by a £3 Boots buy for a glowing complexion
A 37-YEAR-OLD woman who said her face hasn’t aged in 10 years, has shared the secret to her glowing complexion.
Stef, revealed that she doesn’t get Botox and hasn’t had any filler for the last five years, choosing instead to stick to a more natural skincare routine.
“I haven’t really aged in 10 years, honestly, my face hasn’t really changed”, she said.
Vitamin C
Taking to TikTok, the mum revealed that one of the things she uses to keep her skin clear and wrinkle-free is taking Vitamin C tablets.
Vitamin C can help to heal blemishes, reduce hyperpigmentation and make your skin glow.
You can pick up a box of 60 Vitamin C tablets from Boots for £3.50.
PRP
Stef revealed that another thing she does to keep her skin looking youthful is get Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment.
PRP treatment is the process of removing plasma from blood and then applying it to the face following a micro-needling treatment, and rubbing it into the skin.
The treatment will only take around 20 minutes from start to finish and its purpose is to rejuvenate skin.
The PRP works by boosting the skin’s cell turnover, giving you better, plumper skin.
Stef said that she gets this treatment around four times a year, however, on average, it will set you back around £1,000.
Retinol
Retinol increases skin cell production and helps to unclog pores.
It also exfoliates the skin, and increases collagen production, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Stef uses retinol in her skincare routine, and you can pick retinol serum up from Boots for £4.
Sun Cream
Another product that Stef never fails to add to her skincare routine is sun cream.
Sun damage is the biggest cause of premature ageing, so wearing sun cream every day can help to prevent the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
“Stay out of the sun”, Stef said.
Peptides
Stef said that she uses copper peptides every day.
Regular use of copper peptides can lead to a noticeable reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkle.
“It does this really beautiful regeneration, it’s awesome”, Stef said.
You can purchase The Ordinary Multi-Peptide + Copper Peptides 1% Serum from Boots for £28.90.
Stef added that she also aims to lead a healthy lifestyle by doing meditation, exercising, and making sure her stress levels aren’t too high.
Her video, posted under the username (@get_wavy) has likely left many people impressed, as it has racked up over 400,000 views on the video sharing platform.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts.
One person said: “Absolutely agree, I use the same skincare products minus the peptides and it reversed my skin ageing.
“I look younger at 37 than I did in my 20s.”
A second person said: “As a daughter of a dermatologist I approve, this is the way.”
A second person said: “You look gorgeous. I’m 36 and take vitamin C plus I use sunscreen and retinol in the evening.”
