'My £10 Boots anti-ageing cream has my friends convinced I've had Botox and I've stopped wearing foundation'

Boots shoppers have showered praise on a budget £10 anti-wrinkle moisturiser that promises to fight all seven signs of ageing. The £10 anti-ageing moisturiser has been hailed a 'game changer' by those who have tried it, and has hundreds of five star reviews - with some claiming it gives the same effects as Botox, while others have been so happy with their skin after using it, they've ditched their foundation.

Olay Total Effects Anti-Ageing 7in1 Moisturiser usually costs £16.50, but has been reduced down to £10 in a flash sale on the Boots website. The £10 Olay Total Effects Anti-Ageing 7in1 Moisturiser is an anti-ageing cream that fights the 7 signs of ageing for radiant and flawless skin.

The budget £10 anti-ageing cream contains Niacinamide and Antioxidants. Olay Total Effects Cream exfoliates to enhance the skin’s natural self-renewal process for healthier looking skin.

Its non-greasy, fast absorbing formula will not clog the pores of the skin. The Olay Total Effects Anti-Ageing 7in1 Moisturiser has impressed shoppers, and the product has been showered with five-star reviews on the Boots website.

One beauty buff described the £10 anti-ageing cream as 'heaven on the face', writing: "I contacted Olay for advice as I was confused with all the products Olay have. After giving a few answers to the questions the advisor asked, she was then able to give me the correct lotion to try, which was the 7 in one fragrance free. It is marvellous, light, non sticky and makes your skin look and feel great."

A second said: "I tried this product as soon as I received it. I find it lovely and light in texture and feels very luxury on your skin like other expensive ranges/product but for the fraction of the price. I started to notice a different on my complexion and dry areas mainly my t zone after about 5 days and ask have carried on using the improvement just seems to carry on so glad I found this product for such an affordable price too."

Another Olay fan said: "I have super dry skin with a tendency to break out in patches of eczema. I’ve always struggled to find a moisturiser that does everything I need to, intensively moisturise my very dry patches but not overpowering the rest of my face. Olay total effects does this! My skin feels moisturised and much brighter than at the start of using this. A little genuinely goes a long way and I am not afraid of people seeing me without foundation, I’ve been quite happy to just use a light B.B. cream rather than my everyday foundation. Brilliant product, I’ll definitely be buying again!"

A mum who swears by the £10 anti-ageing cream wrote: "I raise teenagers while working a 50hr week in shifts and run a house so any creams that I use need to be easily absorb so I can put my make up on immediately, as time is something I don’t have a lot of I have been using the moisturiser for a few weeks now and my skin tone is more even, looks a lot fresher and the cream is very easily absorbed - so I can put my make up on straight after.

"I have had a few comments on my skin from friends - I think they thought I might have had Botox but when I told them what I had used they were all very shocked. I then went on to give them a sample and asked them to let me know what they thought of it. Excellent product at an affordable price as a little goes a long way. As someone who has tried some higher end products this is definitely up there with the best of them."

Somebody else gave the cream five stars, writing: "My skin is the same whole day, no spots, no greasiness. I love it! Only thing I would change is the smell. Fragrance could be fresher."

"I can’t stress how over the moon I am with this cream! My skin is a nightmare to control. I have dry and oily patches do I have to be careful with the products I use. Straight away my skin felt soft and make up sat better. Within a week my skin was brighter and my complexion was so much better. My fine lines were reduced and I don’t have any dry patches! I was worried that it might make my oily patches worse but it didn’t. I’m so impressed I can’t recommend it enough. I even bought it as Christmas presents for my friends and family," read another glowing review of the £10 Olay anti-ageing cream.

The Olay Total Effects Anti-Ageing 7in1 Fragrance Free Moisturiser is £10 instead of £16 for a limited time on the Boots online flash sale. Alternatives include Rodial's £18 anti-ageing skin serum that they claim works even better than Botox after just 30 seconds., and No7's Future Renew Regime, which promises to reverse the signs of skin damage, and is currently reduced down from £129.80 to £85 for the entire collection.
