The neck region is frequently amongst the first areas to display ageing signs, yet it can prove particularly challenging to address. Fortunately, we’ve discovered an ingenious skincare solution: a retinol-packed swipe-on stick that promises younger-looking skin within weeks.
Leading skincare brand RoC has recently introduced its innovative Derm Correxion Retinol Firming Serum Stick to Boots, retailing at £39.99. Created in collaboration with dermatologists and plastic surgeons and infused with RoC’s signature retinol, this convenient stick is designed to glide smoothly over the face, neck, chest, and hands to moisturise, reduce lines, and enhance skin elasticity.
During RoC’s clinical trials, participants experienced smoother and more hydrated skin instantly, with 94% reporting visibly diminished lines following one week of application, and 94% claiming noticeably firmer skin after four weeks.
Beyond the official testing and impressive before-and-after imagery, customer feedback on the Boots website is equally enthusiastic about this ingenious little product, according to The Mirror.
One shopper dubbed it a “magic eraser for wrinkles”, penning: “I love the ROC Derm Correxion firming serum stick. It is like a magic eraser for wrinkles! You can apply it to your neck, face, or hands to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. I use this every day and highly recommend it.”
“I am in shock at how well this works! It goes on smoothly and absorbs well, without leaving a greasy residue. I’m 62 and get tons of compliments on how great my skin looks since I started using it,” another confirmed. “Love it. Will buy again!”
However, not all customers experienced such rapid outcomes. One buyer mentioned that whilst they “absolutely love the applicator and wish more skincare products rolled on like this” and were “happy to report I had no side effects”, they “haven’t seen any drastic results yet”, continuing to note that “I know retinols can take some time to work so hopefully this has more of an effect as time goes on.”
With that review in mind, some may prefer to shop around. A neck treatment we have evaluated is the well-regarded BOOST LAB Edelweiss Neck Firming Serum, £25, which grabbed our attention after Lisa Snowdon championed its benefits. Our beauty writer Laura discovered that, whilst you shouldn’t anticipate dramatic transformations, it does enhance the condition of the skin in this sensitive region; you can access her complete assessment here.
Another top-rated neck treatment is PRAI Ageless Throat and Décolletage Crème, £31.99, which stands as the leading neck cream at both Boots and M&S.
But a happy ROC shopper witnessed changes within a few weeks: “I am impressed with this product! Not only is application easy with the roll-on packaging, wrinkles showed definite improvement in the first two weeks of use.
“I use it once daily, and though it can be used morning and evening, I’ve kept it to once a day because I’ve had reactions to retinol products in the past, and there was still definite improvement to face wrinkles.”
