It is an age-old concern (no pun intended), but people are always on the hunt for tips to better care for their largest organ—the skin—and finding the best anti-ageing creams and serums is just part of that wider search.
Mayo Clinic says one way to help tackle wrinkles, which is a natural part of ageing, is by moisturisers, as dry skin shrivels plump skin cells, leading to premature fine lines and wrinkles.
However, moisturisers may not be able to prevent the signs of ageing altogether, but they may temporarily mask tiny lines and creases, according to the academic medical centre.
We know how important it is to find a cream or serum that works for you, so while we are not saying this is an exhaustive list, we've put together our picks for the five best anti-ageing creams and serums that you can access in the UAE.
Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Face Cream
According to Olay, having sold more than 50 million jars, the Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Face Cream is designed to diminish wrinkles and fine lines. It is infused with vitamin B3, amino-peptides, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants to aid penetration and improve elasticity.
The moisturiser is recommended for use as the last step in one's routine to leave the skin hydrated with softened fine lines and wrinkles while showing off a firm look. The brand recommends daily use of the moisturiser to see skin transformation in 28 days.
You can find Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Face Cream here for AED 115.
Eucerin Hyaluron Filler Anti-aging Anti-wrinkle Day Cream
Promising to fill, stimulate and defend the skin, the day cream from the Eucerin Hyaluron Filler family has reportedly been clinically and dermatologically proven to deliver multiple anti-ageing benefits.
Using a blend of Hyaluronic Acid and Glycine Saponin, the Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler day cream is reported to deliver a more targeted approach to visibly plumping even deep wrinkles, improving hydration and smoothing the outermost layers of skin.

Revitalift Derm Intensives 1.9% Pure Hyaluronic Acid Replumping Ampoules
The recommendation is to use twice daily or bring ampoules to prep skin when travelling, recovering from a night out, after the beach, or a job interview, as the Revitalift Derm Intensives promises to visibly plump skin.
Each individual ampoule is said to contain an optimal amount of hyaluronic acid to hydrate the skin, and after one ampoule, expect the skin to look visibly smoother and feel hydrated. The brand says that after the seven ampoules, the skin is expected to look healthier and replumped, and wrinkles visibly reduced.

SkinCeuticals Daily Moisture
This daily moisturiser may benefit people with signs of ageing. In fact, customer reviews attest to that, plus its lightweight nature.
SkinCeuticals lists its benefits as restoring and maintaining moisture, being formulated with botanical extracts to help reduce the appearance of pore size, protecting skin from environmental damage, leaving skin with a smooth, non-greasy finish, and being ideal for normal to oily skin.
It is available here for AED 491.
Murad Resurgence Retinol Youth Renewal Serum
Said to be backed by science to optimise skin wellness, this serum combines three retinol technologies and hyaluronic acid to reduce the look of wrinkles in a promised two weeks.
Retinoid, a time-released retinol and a retinol booster help fight lines or deep wrinkles, even skin tone and boost radiance, essentially helping to minimise the signs of ageing.
It is going for AED 265 here.
