We select the most effective and innovative products to help keep your neck looking younger

I have a small confession to make – although I have been in the beauty industry for over 25 years my neck is the one area that I neglected until I started to see those tell-tale signs of ageing.  So my advice to my younger self and all of you reading this would be that it’s easier to start early and help slow the sands of time!

However with the advancements in skincare it is also possible with the correct products to improve both the texture and tone of your neck and décolletage area.

Today neck treatments are available in the forms of serums, lotions and creams and are no longer the thick gloopy textures of the past.  I would recommend twice daily application, taking the product from the jawline to bust line and massaging upwards.  Remember to also take the application round to the back of the neck as this is the area that helps support the visible area around the throat.

Choose your product based on your main concerns – is the texture of the skin crepey or are you more concerned with slackening of the jowl area?

Please also remember to include your neck area in your daily cleansing routine and don’t forget to apply your mask to this area too.  Finally remember to use a daily SPF on both the neck and décolletage area – our skin is so fine here that it is one of the first places to show sun damage.

Filorga Nutri-Filler Nutri Replenishing Cream

This cream gives intense nourishment to the neck area with Shea Butter and Argan oil; these ingredients also help support the elasticity of the skin.  The inclusion of Red Algae helps to target the jaw area to refine the ‘U’ line.  I would recommend you warm this cream up between your fingers first and then massage into the skin.

StriVectin Tightening Neck Serum Roller

This innovative neck serum roller is new to the UK market.  Containing the patented NIA-114 technology from StriVectin this serum is proven to restore the youthful contour of the neck area whilst tightening and firming the skin.  We have seen these roller-ball applicators with eye creams but this is the first that I have seen it in a neck product.  This application method massages the neck area and increases circulation.  Having used this product recently I feel the application method really does add an extra benefit.
