Get back your youthful skin with this firming moisturizer. This moisturizer is formulated with shea butter, olive and macadamia oils, and a powerful antioxidant blend to help combat skin's aging process. "Shea butter has actually been shown to have some anti-aging properties," FutureDerm reports. "In two studies it was determined to help regenerate thinning skin, lessen wrinkles from sun damage, improve complexion, and promote healing."

NIVEA Skin Firming Hydration Body Lotion

NIVEA's Skin Firming Hydration Body Lotion is proven to work in as little as two weeks. It contains specially formulated Q10, or coenzyme Q10. "CoQ10 also helps the skin by acting as a strong antioxidant. It helps to neutralize the harmful free radicals that are one of the major causes of aging," says dermatologist Nicholas Perricone.

This serum uses a tri-ball application to evenly distribute the skin firming formula to your thighs, arms, and bottom. It contains several peptide combinations and ingredients such as ginseng, sweet almond oil and glycerin. According to dermatologist Zoe Diana Draelos, "High-concentration glycerin is being added to many moisturizers to function as a humectant, aiding in attracting water to the xerotic skin surface."
