5. Estee Lauder Revitalizing Supreme+ Global Anti-Aging Cell Power Creme SPF 15
This is one of the best luxury anti-aging moisturisers. This deluxe cream promises to strengthen delicate skin and plump fine lines. Use it both in the morning and evening but, because of its super-thick texture, it really depends on your age and on your skin type. If your skin is on the oilier side, only apply the cream once a day but dry, more mature skin types would reap the benefits of using it twice daily. The pot is slightly bulky therefore, it’s not the most practical for travelling with, but the cream leaves the skin looking flawless so that’s one problem worth having.
