Wrinkles, begone!
If only it were that easy.
The more tired I am and the more stressed out the worse my skin looks (so that’s pretty much all the time). After a good nights sleep, some water and chill out time, my skin looks more refreshed and plump, no doubt.
Meanwhile, Aldi - yep the bargain supermarket, has a nifty little skincare and make up range called Lacura. They launched a product called Wrinkle Stop with SYN-AKE (snake venom!) to work like…well botox. Freezing the wrinkles and all that.
At £5.99 its a bargain and I am starting to test it now. Luckily for you, I have just finished testing a skincare range called Planet Skincare, a high end range which also uses artificial snake venom for its botox-ing effect. Therefore I will be able to compare & contrast in a few weeks.
Meanwhile, if you want to see yourself in an old and wrinkly stage, you can visit Wrinkle Stop and upload a photo of yourself to see your now and aged images!

Hi Louise
I have started using it (not long enough to write a review) but I have to say – I like it. I have also used something similar which costs 15 times more (shall mention this in my review) and I have to say, the Aldi is doing better so far!

Hi Row
You wrote this a year ago, so I’m just wondering what your final conclusion is?
I’m in my late 20s, so quite keen to start taming down a truly annoying frown line.
would you recommend it?
Thanks,
RC

Hi RC
Let me think – I started using this and used it for a totally for 8 weeks. I did notice a slight softening of lines – to be honest I’m not that liney, but it sort of tingles and yes, its a pretty good treatment. I mean, no worse that the expensive stuff I get sent so I’d say its worth a go x

Sorry, but I found the Lacura Syn-Ake absolutely useless. I searched and searched for this product in the Brighton branch with no success but then found the product at an Aldi in Bexhill. The same goes for Athena, another one that was a waste of money. I have tried several others but for the life of me I cannot remember what ones. I am going to try wrinkle fillers next, I think Tri-Aktaline (?) from Boots has been highly praised so that’s on my list. What I will recommend for the time being is facial scrubs, your face feels clean and glowing and a good way of keeping skin smooth.
