From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Skincare is a big deal and one of the most important steps in any routine is moisturiser, whether that’s purely for hydration or other benefits, including sun protection. One secondary benefit is anti-ageing which is all about targeting fine lines and wrinkles as well as aiming to improve the appearance of skin overall.

A brand that really knows what it’s talking about when it comes to effective skincare is Dr Dennis Gross, which broke into the skincare space more than 25 years ago thanks to its hugely successful daily peel mask. Now, an entire range of products has been formulated using innovative science with the human user in mind, including an anti-wrinkle cream that is famous for its smoothing results.

Coming in a 60ml pot, the moisturiser includes ingredients like ferulic acid to protect against environmental aggressors, hyaluronic acid for that boost of hydration and retinol to help minimise fine lines. A tried and tested favourite, it deserves a place on any bathroom shelf but find out why our writer included it in their review of the best anti-ageing creams for men.

Named the best dermatologist-backed anti-ageing cream in our review, this premium moisturiser is packed with potent anti-ageing ingredients (antioxidant ferulic acid and retinol, which is the anti-ageing world’s go-to ingredient and “made for boosting collagen, speeding up cell turnover and tackling hyperpigmentation”).

“As well as helping smooth fine lines and plumping skin, the presence of ceramides helps fortify the skin’s naturally protective barrier,” noted our tester. It has a “great, silky, rich texture” and it absorbs “quickly” into the skin.

“Dr D, meanwhile, has more than 25 years of experience dealing with people’s skin problems, so, if he can’t help you with your wrinkles, we don’t know who can,” they added.
