The Big British Beauty Poll, commissioned by Olay, is one of the biggest beauty surveys ever conducted in the UK - 20,000 women, aged 18-65, were asked about their beauty habits, covering everything from how much they spend to how they feel about Botox.
The results are in, and here we can exclusively reveal what British women really think about beauty.
BOTOX VERSUS NO-TOX?
Botox is out! Now it’s official — women prefer ‘Super Facials’ as the top anti-ageing treatment. The ‘frozen look’ has been given the cold shoulder as women opt for the needle-free method of turning back the years.
When asked ‘Would you consider having, or have you had, any of the following anti-ageing treatments?’, 67 per cent chose anti-ageing facials, 43 per cent micro-dermabrasion, 27 per cent facial peels, 25 per cent laser re-surfacing and 24 per cent cosmetic surgery.
Botox was least popular, scoring only 21 per cent. As high-profile celebrities such as Dannii Minogue say ‘no more’ to Botox, women are following the trend and turning to super-charged facials as alternatives to firmer, younger-looking skin.
A-list facialist Anastasia Achilleos says: ‘I’ve noticed more and more women switching from Botox to high-performance facials.
'They’ve heard about the rejuvenating effects you can achieve from new facial techniques and are looking for a softer, more individual approach to anti-ageing. Now that celebrities are coming out against Botox, there’s a growing trend for a more natural look.’
