Ultra-Rich Anti-Ageing Day Cream

I recently tried the Ultra Rich Anti Ageing Face Cream (Day Formula) from Edinburgh Skincare, and I’m genuinely impressed. The first thing that stood out to me was its luxurious texture – it feels incredibly nourishing without being greasy, making it perfect for my morning routine. As someone who’s conscious about protecting my skin from environmental damage, I appreciate that this cream offers a sheer protective barrier against UV rays, toxins, and pollutants. After using it for a few days, I noticed my skin felt firmer, more hydrated, and had a lovely, youthful glow that lasted all day.

What makes this face cream even more special is its all-natural, handmade formula crafted in the Garden of Scotland. It’s refreshing to find a product that doesn’t contain artificial colouring, preservatives, or fragrance oils, yet still feels so indulgent on the skin. With its ability to hydrate not just the face but also the eye, neck, and décolleté areas, this 100ml jar has become a staple in my skincare routine, and I can already see it making a difference in maintaining my skin’s radiance and elasticity.
