After years of trying skincare products, I have become sceptical of anything that claims to mimic the Botox or dermal filler effect. As we know, the effectiveness of cosmetic treatments can only be achieved in a clinic. The Future Advanced Line Filler from Australian brand Skin Virtue claims to provide an ‘instant plumping effect’ and smoothing of fine lines and wrinkles thanks to a patented hyaluronic acid formulation.
