Mum, 41, reveals secret to looking 20 years younger after being branded a ‘vampire’

A 41-year-old mother who was mistaken for being 21 years-old has revealed her beauty secrets after she was branded a ‘vampire’.

Amber Lancaster, who regularly shares videos online, has credited a ‘small tube’ for her youthful looks. She shared her secret to looking two decades younger with her loyal following, reports the Manchester Evening News.

Telling of her regime, Amber captioned a video: “Four skincare products I love and swear by.”

Holding a tube up to the camera, she explained she’s been using it for 15 years. She said: ““First being tretinoin, you need a prescription for this. I've been using it for 15 years and it’s literally changed my skin. I'm 41 years old and I credit this little tube right here.

"It stimulated collagen production, it’s like the number one ingredient that’s scientifically proven to change your skin. But you do need a prescription for that. It’s not good for all skin types unfortunately.”

She stated that her second favourite skincare product was the SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic Antioxidant Vitamin C Serum, says RSVP Live. Amber explained: “The combination of all these ingredients is what makes this so effective.

"Vitamin C is a very trendy ingredient right now, but it’s not always effective. This one is a good one. It will brighten your skin. I use this in the morning.

She continued: “Another one that I swear by and love is this Ponds Dry Skin facial Moisturiser. I used this at night. You can use it during the day as well. It’s more of a midweight, but it does contain petrolatum which is a skin sealant, but a smaller amount.

“Next is the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream. This stuff has been around for decades. I’m obsessed with it. People have raved about it forever. You can use it in so many different ways. You can use it on your lips, you can use it on your cuticles, hands, heels.”

One of her commenters asked: “Random question but I’m super curious about gorgeous skin like yours outside of products. Do you drink alcohol?” The Price is Right star replied: “I also get Botox on my forehead and crows feet!”

Many of the people that viewed the video couldn’t believe her age, with one person writing: “I cant believe you’re 41. You look so good!” A second commenter shared: “As soon as you said you were 41 I decided I will do whatever you tell me to do”.

A third TikTok user wrote: “41?! You look 25!” A fourth commenter said: “Omg I almost scrolled past because I thought ‘what does this 25 year old know”. With another person writing: “I thought you were 25 until you said you're 41. Amazing!”
