Instant Skin Firmers and Brightness Boosters

Granny used egg white to firm and brighten the skin. Modern equivalents are gel and gel-cream formulas that tighten the skin and give a smoothing, brightening complexion boost. Sadly, the effect is temporary. However, for weary nights out and sag-eyed mornings, they are indispensable.

Beauty therapists recommend using serums as a recovery course after exposure to excess sun or extreme weather conditions or after illness. Serums are concentrates of the "active ingredients" of their parent skin care range. Packaged in ampoules, they have an impressive clinical image. Worn under regular moisturizer, they are supposed to give the skin an extra "fix". However, whether they do more than temporarily firm and stimulate the skin is debatable.
