‘Honestly, this formula is so rich and velvety, it’s got the texture of truffles and is super luxurious to the touch, yet it combines some of the most potent anti-aging heavy hitters – it really does the job.’ Linda x

THE FORMULA
A richly indulgent night cream, this formula features two of the most effective youth-giving actives. Vitamin B3, or niacinamide, really helps transform skin - strengthening and protecting at a cellular level, easing pigmentation, fine lines and flare ups, aiding cell regeneration and improving skin texture and clarity. The other key ingredient is retinol - widely considered the single most effective active for maturing skin. Derived from vitamin A, retinol is proven to help enhance healing, smooth wrinkles and ease fine lines, reverse sun damage, brighten and even skin tone, tighten pores and counter congestion. The rich, whipped texture comes courtesy of luxurious natural oils that melt the actives into skin to nourish, calm, smooth, soothe, firm, clarify and add youthful bounce and radiance.

THE METHOD
Warm one pump between palms for a moment to soften the natural oils in the product before pressing it into cleansed skin, after you’ve applied your serum. Once the product is absorbed, tap skin lightly with your fingertips from decolletage to hairline to help firm and boost radiance.

THE NON-NEGOTIABLES
This is a night cream formulated for use in the evenings. Retinol can irritate sensitive skin, so we always recommend a patch test – leave it for 48 hours to be sure. With retinol, it is also essential that you use sunscreen in the daytime to protect your skin from exposure.
Every formula in Linda’s Luxe Lift collection is concentrated, so you shouldn’t need more than a pea-sized quantity – about one pump. If, after applying, you need to spend time massaging into skin you have probably used too much.

KEY BENEFITS
- Retinol and niacinamide actively fight signs of aging
- White truffles nourish and repair the skin
- Rich velvety consistency melts into skin
- Suitable for normal/dry skin

This is so nourishing - the best way to apply is to warm between palms then press into skin rather than massaging. As with all Retinol formulas, patch test for 48 hours first and wear sunscreen in the day.
