Loose Women star Ruth Langsford has shared her skincare regimen and given an honest review of several Nip + Fab products she has been trying out for six months.

The 65-year-old presenter explained that she originally started using the range because her she had very dry skin that had lost plumpness, something she knows many people experience as they get older.

Taking to Instagram, she said of the collaboration: "I was looking for hydration and getting some plumpness back into my skin, and I definitely feel I've achieved that using these products."

One of the first products Ruth highlighted was the Nip+Fab Hyaluronic Fix Extreme4 Hydration Jelly eye patches, which are designed to give tired under-eyes a moisture boost. The patches, which come in packs of 20 pairs, are aimed at people dealing with dryness and fine lines around the eye area.

As with all skincare, consistency is key and Ruth says she's sticking to the routine night and day to give the products the best chance of working. She said: "[Using it] has definitely shown improvement in my skin, I can feel that its plumper. I feel more confident wearing no makeup... my skin feels good and I'm happy to not have foundation on."

Shoppers seem to agree, one who has bought these on repeat said: "Love these patches, soaks in nicely with no irritation on my sensitive skin. Plumps up fine lines and moisturises well." Another said that the patches have "really improved the texture of my skin and certainly has reduced puffiness and smoothed out fine lines."

Not everyone was a fan, however, with a few shoppers noting that they were 'hard to keep in place'.

As well as the eye patches, Ruth mentioned several other favourites from the range. Her evening routine includes the brand's Ceramide Fix Overnight Cream 12%, and the Peptide Fix Finishing Oil 2%, which she uses as a final step. She noted that the oil doesn't feel greasy, something that can often put people off face oils altogether. She also singled out the brand's Glycolic Fix Daily Cleansing Pads, which she says help smooth the skin's surface.

While she's realistic about the fact that fine lines don't disappear overnight, Ruth said that keeping her skin hydrated has made them look softer. "I still have fine lines," she said, "but I feel they're softer because my skin is more hydrated."

Those looking for an alternative to the Nip Fab patches could try Pixi FortifEye Firming eye patches, £22 for 30 pairs, which contain botanical collagen that the brand says helps with firming and lifting tired under-eyes. Or Grace and Stella's Restoring purple eye masks, £20 for 24 pairs, which contain retinol, sea moss, ceramide and fatty acids to brighten sensitive under-eye skin and banish that tired look.
