Anti-ageing skincare has evolved over the years – from donkey milk baths (famously favoured by Cleopatra) and mercury masks (an Elizabethan technique) to the more recent “vampire facial” (thank the Kardashians). But many modern anti-ageing skincare products also claim to take a more scientific approach, with ingredients often sounding like excerpts from a chemistry textbook.

Three of the most popular ingredients in anti-ageing skincare products (even the budget ones you can buy on the high street) are vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and retinol. But is there any solid evidence that they can reduce wrinkles? According to researchers, the answer might just be a “yes” – depending on which product you use.

You’d be hard-pressed to find a child these days who doesn’t like video games. But if you’re worried about all the time they spend glued to their consoles, a recent study might just put your concerns to rest – playing video games might actually make kids smarter.
