It’s no secret that as we age our skin becomes thinner and its elasticity dwindles, which can leave it looking saggy, droopy and lined. Although we often focus our anti-ageing efforts on our face, there are other areas that are also affected; most prominently, your neck.
It’s often advised that you continue your usual skincare routine all the way down to your neck and chest, but as gravity takes over it can be a tricky area to rectify without surgery or treatments like Botox. However, we’ve come across a genius solution that gives “amazing results” without a needle in sight.
The Neck Rescue Non-Surgical Beauty Strip from ContoursRX are priced at £31.28 and give an instant lift and tighten to your neck area. These non-surgical beauty strips help to visibly tighten, lift and firm your neck area, smoothing any sagging and eradicating the appearance of deep wrinkles and fine lines.

Using them couldn’t be easier; simply apply the strip to the back of your neck and pull the skin taut to get your desired look, and use the strip to hold it in place. You can alter the length or width by simply trimming the strip with some scissors before applying, and to remove it all you need to do it peel it off much like you would a plaster.
You get 30 strips included in the pack, and the results are instantaneous. It’s recommended that you apply the strip to clean, dry skin that doesn’t have any oils or moisturisers on it to get the best grip, and when applied correctly they should last all day.

ContoursRX)The ContoursRX website does recommend the strips are only used for special occasions, as although the Neck Rescue strips are latex-free, the adhesive is very strong and daily use can leave your skin irritated. They currently have 100 out of 120 five star reviews on the CountoursRX website, with shoppers singing their praises.
One wrote: “Tremendous difference in my appearance. Wonderful product,” whilst a second added: “OMG! These are amazing! It really works!”
A third penned: “It is the best product I have used. They look great, stick, and do not peel off. Make sure to use warm, soapy water when removing to break the adhesive bond. Love it!”
However a fourth reviewer did caution: “While these strips are a quick fix they are tricky to put on. My biggest issue with them is if it’s warm weather and I am hot, the strips won’t stay on. They just pop off. But otherwise I use them when I absolutely have to.”
