The 41-year-old used the age filter on social media to show people what she thought she would look like by the time she was 40.

The filter showed Yvonne with sagging cheeks and wrinkles all over her face.

But when she removed the filter, she saw a very different reality.

Her natural skin showed no wrinkles and had a beautiful, youthful appearance.

The beauty fanatic looked decades younger and many viewers agreed, but she revealed it was all thanks to one product.

She said, “This is what I thought I would look like at 41, thank you, tretinoin.”

The incredible skin care product is a type of retinol that sheds old skin cells and stimulates the growth of new healthy cells.

This speeds up cell renewal, which can help combat acne, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation.

Tretinoin is stronger than retinol and works faster.

But it can also lead to more side effects, such as redness, dryness and flaking.

When you first start using tretinoin or retinol, you should introduce it slowly into your skincare routine. Start with twice a week and build up slowly.

Tretinoin is a prescription drug in the UK, so you will need to visit your doctor or online dermatologists such as Dermatica to get it.

Alternatively, you can use retinol, available from Boots or Superdrug.

The clip has since gone viral on her TikTok account @yvonnekipling with over 3.9 million views and 435,000 likes.

What is Retinol?

Retinol is a big buzzword in the beauty industry right now…

Retinol is a chemical exfoliant that belongs to the retinoid family, a group of compounds derived from vitamin A.

It promotes the shedding of old, dead skin cells and the production of new, healthy cells. This process helps keep the skin smooth and radiant by improving its texture and tone.

By accelerating cell turnover, retinol also helps unclog pores, making it an effective treatment for acne.

Regular use of retinol can significantly improve the overall texture and tone of your skin. It can minimize the appearance of pores, smooth rough patches, and even out pigmentation.

Retinol also helps fade dark spots and hyperpigmentation by accelerating pigment cell renewal and promoting the growth of new, evenly pigmented cells.

People were quick to respond to the comments and were in awe of her youthful appearance.

Someone wrote: “You’re 41?!!!! You look so much younger!”

Another commented: “41??? wowwwza.”

“You’re the first person I’ve seen do this trend and actually look younger than they are,” wrote a third.

Meanwhile, a fourth said: “Girl, you look like a good 20-something.”

“You have amazing skin,” claimed a fifth.

Someone else added: “You look so much younger! I need tretinoin now.”
