We've all heard the age-old advice about protecting our skin from the sun, right? It seems like we're told from day one to avoid the sun like a vampire to keep wrinkles at bay.

For example, more than 22,000 happy shoppers on Amazon are raving about Medix 5.5 Retinol Body Lotion for its ability to help restore skin elasticity.

Reviewers in their 50s and 60s have found a genius way to 'stick' it to dark circles and fine lines. You can expect results in as little as three weeks.
"I absolutely love this product," said one repeat buyer. "My eye area is dry, and as I've aged I have gotten wrinkles and dark circles. This eye cream has worked miracles. My eyes are brighter and the dark circles have lightened. It feels amazing as soon as you apply, giving my eye area lots of moisture. I have tried several eye creams over the years and this one is by far one of the best. I definitely recommend."
Prescription-strength retinol products can cost upwards of $40, so even at its full price, this highly rated lotion is a bargain. But the fact that it's on sale for $20 makes it a no-brainer. Plus, this deal is for a 15-fluid-ounce bottle — that's a lot of product, especially considering plenty of retinol creams come in tiny jars.
Retinol is a powerhouse anti-aging ingredient. It helps support collagen production, which in turn has a firming effect that reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and crepey-looking skin.
This anti-sagging cream is also infused with natural antioxidants like black tea, aloe vera and chamomile to help reduce redness, puffiness and irritation. It contains no alcohol or parabens and is vegan and cruelty-free. Many fans say it's helped reduce wrinkles and tighten sagging on the face, neck, arms and legs — pretty much everywhere the sun shines.
Speaking of which, we all know sun protection is incredibly important: UV rays are dangerous, and we encourage you to use SPF and be smart. What's great about this product is that it promises to improve the appearance of damage that's already been done. This stuff works all over, so apply generously anywhere that's craving moisture.
Tens of thousands of fans rave about how well this cream works for perking up their skin.
"My turkey neck has improved! First product I've had that gave me results," said a happy shopper.
"Crepey arms appear much better," this five-star fan said. "I was buying Avon for my arms, but I've liked this from the first use. I don't think you can cure crepe, but this does camouflage the appearance. I also like the pumper."
"I've tried more body lotion/cream brands than I can remember, and I've gotten better results with this brand by far. I grew up in the pre-sunscreen era and my skin shows it," said this former sun worshipper. "This product leaves my skin smooth, soft and healthy, a noticeable improvement. It absorbs quickly and has a light scent, very subtle. I can't recommend it enough. I just ordered a second bottle."
While thousands say this lotion does the trick, some did find the scent more than light and subtle. "I want to love this because it feels good and is a good deal," admitted this user. "But it is loaded with fragrance ... I feel like I can taste it after putting it on."
Said another, "I'm sorry I didn't get to experience the effectiveness of this lotion before I gave up on using it because of its very strong floral scent. It's not unpleasant, just really strong and I couldn't stick with it."
