On Tuesday’s episode of How to Look Good Naked, Dawn Porter and her team of 100 testers set out to find the best anti-aging moisturiser in terms of value for money and best results. The four products in the experiment were DDF Wrinkle Relax (£82.00), Estee Lauder DayWear Plus (£28.00), L’Oreal Revitalift (£13.00) and Simple Regen+ Anti-Wrinkle Firming Cream (£12.99). I love it when the cheaper products come out on top – it proves that you don’t have to spend a fortune to help your skin stay younger for longer.

The most expensive product actually came last receiving only 45 points out of the possible 100, then in 3rd place came Simple Regen+ Anti-Wrinkle Firming Cream with 52 points, 2nd place went to L’Oreal Revitalift with 54 points and in first place came Estee Lauder DayWear Plus with 58/100 points. At 1/3rd the price of the most expensive product, Estee Lauder provides both value for money and the best results.

This week on Channel 4’s How to Look Good Naked, Dawn Porter and the girls tested Under Eye Dark Circle Creams. The products tested were Benefit Eye Con (£21.50), Boots Time Delay (£7.99), Hylexin Dark Circle Cream (£95.00) and
ROC Hydra+ Destressant Eyes (£11.95). The girls that reported their experiences said that the creams didn’t really do much for their dark circles but did moisturise their skin. Would you spend up to £95 on a product that’s not going to do its job? Unlikely.

The most expensive product Hylexin Dark Circle Cream did score the highest amount of points (54) but none of the girls were raving about it, it is in my opinion a waste of money that could have been better spent on two new pairs of shoes! Benefit Eye Con came in 2nd place with 50 points out of the possible 100, Boots Time Delay came in at a close 3rd (49/100) and ROC Hydra+ Destressant Eyes last place with just 30 points.

Obviously everybody’s skin is different so you never know what products may work for you. There is no way I would spend £95 on a product but I would consider using Benefit Eye Con as it did rank just 4 points behind and is over £70 cheaper. I have seen a few US websites that advertise Hylexin Dark Circle Cream for $95 which is much more reasonable.

See the Channel 4 Website for further information about the show or to get the chance appear on the program.

I am a huge fan of the new show How to Look Good Naked on Channel 4, I think it’s a great feel-good program and I’m sure many women across the UK are hooked. If you haven’t seen the show, they basically pick a women who feels self conscious about her body and they dress her in clothes to suit her shape and make her feel fabulous. At the end of the show she has her own photo shoot and models underwear on a catwalk.

Every week they test out beauty products on a group of 100 women, this week they tried tanning products and for the first time in ages an expensive product actually won the experiment. Make Believe Tan Extender costing £25 scored the highest but only by 3 points.

Second in the rankings was Olay Everday Sunshine costing just £5.99 – an absolute bargain compared to the Make Believe product. To be honest I couldn’t tell the difference in appearance between one woman wearing the expensive tan and the other wearing the cheaper version.

I therefore conclude by saying, Olay Everyday Sunshine is the ideal tanning product of the summer!
