My dermatologist taught me the best £2.39 Superdrug tip – it ages your skin backwards 10 years & takes seconds to apply

WHEN it comes to anti-aging secrets, Elle McNamara has been setting the standard for years.

The skincare guru, known to her fans as Bambi Does Beauty, has mastered the art of smoothing fine lines and reducing wrinkles. 

At 33, she looks so youthful that many assume Botox is behind her glowing complexion – but Elle swears it’s all down to her expert skincare routine.

And she thanks a simple travel hack which she believes knocks 10 years off your skin, and is a must to do when travelling. 

She revealed that putting on a collagen mask for the duration of a flight is the best anti-ageing trick. 

Elle shared a video of her putting the collagen mask on whilst she travels, and said: “The dermatologist that told us that collagen masks age your skin 10 years backwards on a flight, I owe you. 

“Never going on a long haul flight without a collagen mask from now on.” 

Collagen masks can be bought from Superdrug for £2.39. 

Experts have previously revealed how collagen masks can be a game-changer for in-flight skincare, helping to temporarily smooth fine lines and wrinkles while keeping your skin looking fresh. 

Collagen, a vital protein, provides structure and support to the skin, maintaining its firmness, elasticity, and youthful glow – making it the perfect travel companion for your beauty routine.

Many people rushed to the comments section to share their thoughts, with one person asking: “These masks just dry my skin out – what am I doing wrong?”

Elle replied: “Apply hydration BEFORE applying the mask! 

“It’s meant to seal hydration in. I never apply just to dry skin – that’s the key.”

We previously revealed Elle’s other secrets to looking so skin-credible. 

Her surprising tricks? Skipping two key steps in her face-washing process – a move she credits with helping her turn back the clock.

Elle has ditched her morning cleansing routine and rarely exfoliates anymore.

“I stopped cleansing my skin in the morning,” she shared on Instagram.

“I was only cleansing every morning because I thought that was what I was ‘supposed’ to do.

“Even if you have clog-prone skin, this is a game changer.”

While skincare experts have differing views on whether morning face washing is essential, Elle believes in letting your skin’s natural overnight oils continue to work their magic throughout the day.
