Marks & Spencer Formula Absolute Ultimate Sleep Cream 50ml £22

Today we're talking about the Marks and Spencer Formula Absolute ('FA') Ultimate Cream* because, hear this people, I will be talking about how far £22 will take you in a little over a week.
Now some of you may already be aware that I will soon be leaving the 'twenty something' category behind me and I've recently noticed (amongst short and cute sprigs of white hair that I wear so proudly) that my skin is losing its youthful appearance.
I was crying over my fine lines (the ones around my mouth and forehead) when the beauties at M&S got in touch asking what products I'd be interested in trying.
I'd never previously heard of the Formula Absolute range which is M&S's in-house anti aging range and was keen to give it a try. I was sent, amongst some other products, the FA Ultimate Cream which I was over the moon to receive (particularly given the glowing reviews left by other users).
I've been using the cream consistently for about 1 week straight now and have woken up to beautifully plump skin on every day of use. This was slightly marred by a small reaction as a result of another Glycolic based product I was using (nothing to do with this product) but I have otherwise been very pleased with the results.
The Ultimate Cream provides serious moisturisation to the skin and whilst this is great for all skin types, those with drier completions will appreciate this property even more.
It is not pore clogging and the product is great for those with sensitive skin as it does not cause nasty, pesky reactions. It is actually quite a gentle and caring formula.
In terms of presentation it comes in a pretty black jar with a gold coloured cap which makes for such a pretty sight on the vanity.
The cream, hands down, beats some of the more luxurious brands out there and it does so without the nasty price tag which would put the average Joe off.
In terms of texture, it is medium rich in consistency and slightly tacky when it goes on but is absorbed quickly and effectively by the skin.
At £22 this investment will have your skin eternally grateful to you. For reference purposes my skin is oily and I've found this to work very well for me and dare I say, has made my makeup go on a lot more nicely and has gone so far as improving the performance of makeup by providing the appearance of being naturally lit within.
The jar contains 50ml of product and you only need a little bit every night (the quantity you need may vary from skin to skin).
I would highly recommend this cream to all those with fine lines and ageing skin concerns.  M&S prove, with this gem, that you do not need to spend hundreds and hundreds of pounds in order to get quality skincare in your life.
I hope this short review has been helpful however any questions, please feel free to ask away.
Yours,
GSA
