- Ensure that each product is clinically proven and backed by scientific data.

As a Scientific Skincare Advisor for Boots for over a decade, I've seen clinical proof from research programs conducted in Nottingham, U.K., that explores the effects of skincare science on the skin. From those finding, we've been able to determine a few ingredients to look for if you're plagued by fine lines:
- Alpha-hydroxy acids help turn over surface cells.
- Peptides are critical; they communicate with your cells to help build and reinforce collagen and elastin in your skin's deeper layers.
- A Pro-Retinol complex encourages mature skin to behave like younger skin, because it: Boosts skin's elasticity for a more youthful look; smoothes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; moisturizes dehydrated skin; and improves skin's overall tone.
