Over two years since it’s launch, Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle and UV Damage Corrector has swept the beauty industry like a storm. Promising a 54% reduction in lines and wrinkles over a 12 week usage, through twice daily application, this is powerful stuff. You’ll get around 4 weeks from a 30ml bottle, but you can now pick it up in 60ml and 100ml sizes.

Housed in a dropper bottle, the serum is oil-free and very lightweight. Apply this over the top of your moisturiser if doesn’t contain an SPF or underneath if it does. It has been designed for all skin types and is for both men and women. If you’re not at the wrinkly stage yet, then it will work as a fantastic preventative measure, as ‘an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure’ (Ellen Marmur, MD).

Working very closely to with this product and having clients that swore by it, I have really seen the effects up close. Obviously results vary from user to user, and someone with deep wrinkles isn’t going to achieve the same effect of someone who only has light wrinkles, but it’s that 54% reduction whatever the severity.

UV Damage, well this is sun damage, 80% of our life’s sun exposure is incidental, going to the bins n’ that. Now, this is where I get all stern. Bare with me a second as I clamber up on my high horse… There we go…. If you use this serum, see the effects, but use no daily sun protection, use sun beds like there’s no tomorrow, smoke a small plantations worth of tobacco each day, then you are going to see a reduction in lasting effects.

Make sure to always wear at least an SPF 15, and for any women reading, foundation does not count. The amount of women who used to come to me and say “My foundation is gone by the end of the day”, but when asked if they wear sun protection, they say “It’s in my foundation”, kind of makes me think hmm, although I understand the misconception! But I digress. For my men, make sure you’re always using a moisturiser with an SPF, or a separate dedicated SPF suitable for daily use, as holiday suncream is a little much for every day.

If you have or are worried about lines and wrinkles, not that they’re something to feel bad about I must add, but this then is the product for you. It’s one of the only products on the market with proven clinical results. Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle and UV Damage Corrector has product has undergone laboratory tests by clever people in white coats with doctorates on over 600 people to gain evidence of its effectiveness.

It’s available here, direct from Clinique in 30ml, 60ml and 100ml.
