Bottom Line: A No 7 serum that feels nice and promotes soft skin, but probably won’t do much in terms of anti-aging effects. For example, one review says, “I am so loving this retinol night serum! I have used other retinol serums from other companies and they always break my skin out or cause a rash, but this retinol treatment by No. 7 is the best! I have been using it for 3 months and have seen a great difference in my skin. My wrinkles are reduced and the dark spots from sun damage have improved. I highly recommend it!!” Another said: "Perfect eye cream soothes and reduces fine lines and wrinkles as well as reducing dark circles." Antioxidant Complex - discover a more youthful-looking, radiant eye area with Protect & Perfect Intense ADVANCED eye cream This No 7 eye cream has a silky texture that will glide on easily, helping the skin around your eyes to feel smooth and moisturized while also possibly disguising signs of aging like crow’s feet.

Ethylhexylglycerin, Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, Citric acid, Palmitoyl tripeptide-1, CI 77891 (Titanium dioxide), CI 77492 (Iron oxides), CI 77491 (Iron oxides), CI 77499 (Iron oxides). Gluconolactone provides anti-aging, antioxidant, and gentle exfoliating benefits without sun sensitivity. In addition, gluconolactone strengthens the skin’s moisture barrier, thereby leaving it more resilient. The moisturizer also has a strong floral fragrance, which makes using it each morning feel like a treat, but some may find it overpowering. Bottom Line: No 7 Restore and Renew Night Cream is meant to be an anti-aging night cream, but make sure you are using it safely. Gluconolactone is a polyhydroxy acid (PHA). PHAs are second-generation hydroxy acids that are similar to AHAs but provide high-strength anti-aging benefits without irritation. Therefore, PHAs are an ideal choice for sensitive skin types.

Bottom Line: No 7 Lift and Luminate Serum includes vitamin C to firm and brighten skin, but keep in mind that the formula may not have the same benefits as vitamin C is often purported to have. Formulated with shea butter and hyaluronic acid, it also helps to visibly improve wrinkles and fine lines, and promises results in just two weeks. Bottom Line: No 7 Lift and Luminate Powder is a finishing powder that uses talc and other natural minerals to absorb excess oil, reduce shine, and create the appearance of visibly smoother skin. Sara is probably right in thinking that you might be allergic to something in your Lift and Luminate cream.

Gentle yet powerful; Protect & Perfect Intense ADVANCED eye cream is especially designed for the delicate skin around your eyes. Instantly hydrating lines and wrinkles appear visibly reduced, whilst improving the appearance of dark circles and puffiness, for a wide-awake look.​ Notice we said “disguise” signs of aging, not treat or correct. That’s because this eye cream mostly consists of humectants (glycerin, butylene glycol, etc.), silicones (cyclopentasiloxane and cyclohexasiloxane), and denatured alcohol. Bottom Line: The No 7 Retinol serum combines 0.3% pure retinol with the peptide complex Matrixyl 3000, which both works to reduce the appearance of lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and more. No 7 Restore and Renew Night Cream is a rich night cream that includes emollients, silicones, and retinyl palmitate. Double Defence Technology and No7 Age-Defying actives reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and helps protect skin against future signs of ageingThe talc in this formula also helps to absorb oil and reduce shine. Perhaps you’ve heard that talc in cosmetics is dangerous, but is that true? As if that wasn’t enough, research suggests that when vitamin C is applied to the skin, it significantly reverses aging-related structural changes by influencing collagen and elastin synthesis. Although, as our in-house biochemist, Elle MacLeman points out, most of the research on vitamin C’s benefits comes from the ingredient L-ascorbic acid.
