I've tried a lot of skincare brands over the years but none have had such an immediate and long lasting effect on my skin as Dr Sebagh.
Dr Jean-Louis Sebagh (apparently rhymes with teabag as much as I wish it didn't) is a world leader in non surgical procedures and has an anti ageing clinic in his home town of Paris as well as my home town of London where he specialises in keeping people youthful rather than turning back the clocks completely. His signature look is more subtle than most and thats one of the reasons he's so successful - let's face it, pillow face is never a good look is it?
But his skincare range isn't just a lucrative sideline to sticking needles in Kylie's forehead. He works hard along with a team of chemists to produce amazing products that really do work.
I first discovered Dr Sebagh (available from johnlewis.com) about ten years ago when I didn't have many other financial commitments so I could afford to splurge - prices start at £25 for a cleanser and go up to £215 for a serum. You might wonder why the 23 year old me decided to use a brand so heavily associated with anti ageing. In fact, Dr Sebagh products concentrate on two areas of skincare that are really opposite to each other. As well as fighting blemishes, greasy T zones and acne (things associated with being young) the products also fight the signs of getting older namely wrinkles, age spots and complexion dullness.
Nowadays I have less budget for lotions and potions so I was super happy when somebody very generous gifted me a few bits this week. The problem is now I've been reminded how amazing the products are and I have no idea which bill to stop paying so I can afford to buy more!
