Watier Age Control Supreme Sublime collection

They say: A collection of skin care for day and night that features “Canadian-sourced antioxidants” such as Labrador tea, cranberry extract, boreal chaga mushroom, and white pine. The formulas, which include a rich day cream, light day dream, night cream and more, promise to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and target signs of aging such as dark spots.

We say: Our tester tried the Sublime Advanced Light Day Cream and the Sublime Advanced Night Cream and was pleased with the performance of the two skin care products. A small amount provided instant, cushioning hydration to the face. Skin appeared more smooth with use, she reports.

$120-$127 | Watier.com 

Flexitol Heel Magic

They say: A heel-smoothing stick applicator that features shea butter, olive oil and 9 per cent urea to help hydrate dry and cracked heels in as little as three days. Suitable for those with diabetic foot concerns.

We say: If you’ve ever been stepping out the door, looked down and stopped in your tracks — those dry heels! — this stick is for you. The mess-free balm can be applied on the go to give dry heels instant hydration. Non-greasy, the skin-smoothing formula is a swipe on and go kind of product, no rubbing required.

$18.49 | Shoppers Drug Mart, Amazon.ca

Alphascience Ultra Firm

They say: A face and neck sculpting concentrate from the French skin care brand that features three key ingredients — Shiitake complex, L-Glutamine, and Genistein — to “transform the appearance of skin” on the face, neck and décolleté.

We say: There’s a reason this formula is award winning. “Wow!” our tester reported back about the visible results she noticed in neck lines and crepiness with continued use.
