Please STOP trying to fix your turkey neck with neck creams. I know that sounds crazy, but every time you moisturise the hell out of it, buy a fancy serum or spend £89 on another firming cream, you might be chasing solutions that have nothing to do with what's actually happening under your skin. I found out last summer. After I spent a week in Marbella in 35-degree heat hiding my saggy neck behind a sarong. We'd been planning that trip for almost a year. Six of us. First proper holiday together since before everything changed, kids, jobs, life. A week in the sun, cocktails by the pool, the kind of trip you look forward to for months. I'd bought a new swimsuit for it. Navy. Fitted. The kind of thing I used to wear without thinking twice. I tried it on three weeks before we left and stood in the bathroom mirror for a long time. The swimsuit was fine. My body was fine. But my neck looked like it belonged to someone else. That crepey, loose, saggy skin that had been creeping down from my jawline for the past few years. In a swimsuit, under a bathroom spotlight, there was nowhere to hide it. I didn't cancel the trip. But I packed four sarongs. The first two days were fine. We were mostly at the beach, I kept a sarong loosely around my shoulders, told myself it was for the sun. No one said anything. I half-convinced myself no one noticed. Then on day three someone suggested photos by the pool. Everyone else looked incredible. Tanned, relaxed, genuinely glowing. And I'm in every shot with a sarong pulled up to my chin, slightly turned away from the camera, doing that thing where you tilt your chin forward and up just enough so you don't see the sagging so much. When the photos landed in the WhatsApp group that evening I went through them one by one. I deleted three. Then I deleted all of them. That night I lay in bed while the others went to dinner and did what I always do when I feel like this. I picked up my phone and started searching. Neck creams. Neck firming. How to fix a saggy neck without surgery. The same search I'd done dozens of times before, the same search that had led me to spend over £400 on creams that pilled under my makeup, smoothed the surface for 20 minutes then did nothing, or just sat in the jar looking expensive. I'd tried them all. Every single one promised the same thing and every single one let me down. I'd pretty much accepted it was surgery or acceptance. And I couldn't afford the surgery. Then a few weeks after we got back from Marbella, my sister sent me a link. A group of UK dermatologists had tested 16 neck creams available in the UK to find out which ones actually target what causes the sagging and which ones are just moisturising the surface. They explained how most creams never actually touch the real issue behind the sagging and ranked the 5 most effective ones. I ordered the one they ranked first that same night. Within two weeks the texture of my neck started to change. Not just softer. Firmer. By week four the crepey look had faded and the sagging had visibly improved. I took a before and after photo, same lighting, same angle, same time of day, and I sat on my bed staring at the two pictures because I couldn't believe it was the same neck. By week six my husband asked if I was using something new on my neck. And this is a man who never notices anything, not even when I rearranged the entire living room. By month three my sister couldn't stop staring at my neck when she came round for tea. She ordered three jars that evening. I just booked Marbella again for this summer. This time I'm packing V-necks, strapless dresses and a bikini. No sarong. If you're hiding your neck behind scarves and high collars, if you're the one deleting photos of yourself, if you've given up on creams because none of them ever did what they promised, read this article. It saved my confidence and it saved me from a surgery I couldn't afford. I put the link to the article below 👇 P.S. They've got a sale on right now so the price in the article is even cheaper at the moment.
