Mario Badescu’s Collagen Moisturizer SPF 15 ($22, 2oz) is an ultra-lightweight, daily moisture and moderate sun protection all-in-one. Collagen-rich formula protects skin from moisture loss and keeps skin smooth, plump and healthy without the use of heavy oils. To use, apply the moisturizer on clean skin before sun exposure all over the face avoiding the eye area. It is best to reapply frequently to maintain protection and after perspiring or swimming. This may be used under make-up or alone and ideal for combination and sensitive skin.

I cannot say if this product will help with the firmness of the skin of older women but this is a great lightweight moisturizer. Continue Reading »
