I’m 40 – my skin was terrible after smoking heavily for 20 years, but a $22 anti-aging Amazon serum kicks wrinkle’s butt
AFTER smoking heavily for 20 years, a 40-year-old woman has turned back the clock with an affordable anti-aging buy.
She is now curing her terrible, wrinkled skin with an Amazon serum full of age-defying properties.
Amazon shopper Gail is a 40-year-old with a heavy smoking history.
As a result of decades of use, her skin developed deep set lines and wrinkles.
She hailed the TruSkin Vitamin C Face Serum, $21.97, as the product that saved her skin in a review.
Gail admitted that she smoked heavily for over 20 years before she quit in January 2017, and "drank pretty bad" for 13 years before getting sober in 2015.
It has anti-aging nutrients, including hyaluronic acid, vitamin E & aloe vera, jojoba oil, and MSM to help brighten, calm and protect all skin types.
It works well on fine lines and wrinkles and can also be used around the eye area, to combat dark spots, and even out skin tones.
Apply one to two drops morning and night for the most effectiveness.
Gail gushed about the beauty item and rated it 5/5 stars in her in-depth review.
She added that "vitamin C does work well with retinol," in case anyone was wondering.
"It turns out that using retinol without vitamin C or any other potent antioxidant is keeping your skin from reaping all the benefits of using retinol!!! Which is why this serum is so important in your skincare regimen. My skin was terrible!!!!" she wrote.
In her review, she attached a photo with absolutely no makeup on, only moisturizer and lip balm, and was proud of her results.
"Hopefully this review helps clear up the myths of using certain anti-aging products together, and their (in)effectiveness. Us ladies gotta stick together in this war on aging and kick some wrinkle butt!!!!" she added.
Customer Sja also gave it a solid five-star rating for its consistency and price and called it a "definite buy," after purchasing it in March 2023.
"I wanted a serum that would take away my age spots. I read the reviews and saw some of the pictures. When I first got it, I really liked how it felt on my skin like it drank this stuff," she commented.
"I have dry skin, and ever since I started using this serum, it really hydrated my skin, and I had a glow to my face. I loved it so much that I would keep buying another bottle."
Overall, product users like the skin serum's brightness, texture, and effectiveness.
It's a must-have for any skincare routine with over 141,000 reviews and an average rating of 4.3 stars.
