Shoppers race to Savers to get their hands on a £4.99 product that’s just hit the shelves – it’s ‘Botox in a bottle’
SHOPPERS are racing to Savers to get their hands on their new £4.99 product that’s just hit the shelves.
The beauty product has been dubbed ‘Botox in a bottle,’ as it provides a total anti-ageing effect formulated with a Botox-like tripetide.
The budget retail store is selling Btox Effect serum and cream by a Spanish brand called Babaria.
Lou, who is known as ‘loujade18’ on TikTok, shared a review of both the serum and the cream on her social media page.
Talking about the ingredients displayed, she says: “It does say at the top that the cream provides a total anti-ageing effect formulated with a Botox-like tripeptide.
“It reduces wrinkles and has antioxidants, especially suitable for mature skin. So that’s the only thing that I could get.”
She continues: “I’ve just used it on my face and the only feedback that I can give is that if you’ve got really oily skin it would definitely be good for you.
“What I found was that it’s really hydrating, but like a lot of my other creams, they sit on your skin and they kind of make you feel greasy all day.
“This didn’t. It soaked straight into my skin and it stayed like it. So although my skin still looked really hydrated, it didn’t sit on the top of my skin.
“So if you’ve got oily skin then it’s definitely one for you.”
The ingredients include: Aqua (Water), Glycerin, Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate, Isopropyl Myristate, Parfum (Fragrance), Phenoxyethanol, Polyacrylate-13, Acrylates/Vinyl Isodecanoate Crosspolymer, Ethylhexylglycerin, Polyisobutene, Polysorbate 20, Sorbitan Isostearate, Sodium Hydroxide.
Talking about the product, the Savers website explained: “Babaria’s Botox Effect serum provides a global anti-ageing effect, formulated with Botox-like Tripeptide, it visibly smooths wrinkles and relaxes the face.”
We previously revealed how Cara De La Hoyde has shared her go-to beauty hack for tightening up “loose” skin, and the best part? It’s only £4.
Speaking on her podcast, The School Runway, the 34-year-old revealed her weekly must-have, which you can pick up cheaply while on holiday.
The Love Island star mentioned that both she and her husband, Nathan Massey, 32, are big fans of using Tretinoin.
Cara explained: “They call it Botox in a bottle. Nathan and I both use it, and before I started, my skin was really loose. This stuff tightens your skin.”
Tretinoin, a derivative of Vitamin A, is highly praised in the skincare community for its ability to reduce both wrinkles and acne.
Biggest skincare trends for 2025
Face The Future’s Head of Clinic, Kimberley Medd, shared the five skincare trends predicted to take off in 2025.
1. Exosomes
Exosomes are the buzzword for 2025, taking advanced skin regeneration to new heights. These micro-messengers signal skin cells to repair damage, boost collagen, and accelerate recovery. Whether in topical formulations or clinic-based treatments, they’re a gamechanger for targeting ageing and compromised skin barriers.
2. Streamlined Skincare
The age of 12-step routines is fading as consumers shift to more intentional, multi-functional products. Streamlining skincare not only saves time but also reduces the risk of overloading your skin. In 2025, we’ll see a rise in hybrid products like CeraVe AM Facial Moisturising Lotion SPF50 which combine active ingredients like ceramides with a broad-spectrum SPF50 for simplified, effective results.
3. Vegan Collagen
Plant-based collagen will dominate the skincare world in 2025, providing a sustainable, ethical alternative to traditional animal-derived collagen. Expect vegan collagen in everything from moisturisers to serums, designed to enhance elasticity and hydration whist catering to a more eco-conscious audience.
4. The Rise Of AI
AI is revolutionising the beauty landscape, making it possible for consumers to get truly personalised skincare solutions. In 2025, we predict a dramatic shift towards AI-powered tools that help people understand their skin on a deeper level.
5. Hair Loss Solutions –
Hair loss is an issue that affects more men than we often realise, and it’s no longer just something we’re talking about behind closed doors. In 2025, expect to see a continued rise in demand for treatments that not only tackle hair loss but also nurture overall scalp health.
