Lightweight and mild, Roc’s formula was a heavy hitter for smoothing lines and skin texture in the GH Beauty Lab’s anti-aging day cream test. Digital imaging showed that the cream improved skin’s texture by 11% in four weeks; it also rated highly for diminishing wrinkles and firming. Testers commented on how quickly it absorbed and how smooth their skin felt after use.
The star (and best value!) of the GH Beauty Lab’s anti-aging day cream test, L’Oréal Paris topped Lab and tester assessments for reducing UV spots, evening skin tone, moisturizing and absorbing fast with a silky finish. The vitamin C and glycolic acid cream received the highest score for minimizing dark spots, by 11% over four weeks, and boosted skin’s hydration by 28%. “It decreased the appearance of my wrinkles and made my skin brighter and more radiant,” one raved. “My skin stayed hydrated throughout the day,” another said.
