  • Wearing moisturizer and SPF daily on your face is important for keeping skin healthy and youthful, but the skin on your neck is 50% thinner than that on your face — that means it's more prone to wrinkles and looseness.

    "Neck skin is super thin because it has less oil glands, meaning it needs more moisture than the face," says Neda Mehr, M.D., a dermatologist and founder of Pure Dermatology Cosmetic and Hair Center in Newport Beach, California. "Since dry skin leads to fine lines and wrinkles, hydration is key for the neck area."

    In addition, she says, "neck skin becomes crepey quicker than the face because the collagen layer is thinner." Adding one of the best neck creams with anti-aging properties to your skincare regimen can smooth, tighten and firm neck skin (as long as you continue wearing effective sunscreen).

    To find neck creams that actually work, our scientists in the Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab evaluate neck creams and treatments both in the Lab using technical instruments and on consumer testers over 12 weeks, calculating over 1,711 data points in our last test to find the best neck creams.

    The winner of the GH Beauty Lab's neck cream test, this lightweight No7 serum with collagen-boosting retinoids and peptides was a heavy hitter for firming, outperforming the others. Before-and-after images taken with high-resolution professional photography showed the most improvement in tightening and lifting neck skin over 12 weeks.

    Testers voted the drugstore buy the fastest-absorbing and most appealing in texture as well as least irritating. “This made my neck more firm,” one said. A heads up for those with sensitive skin: a few users noted that it didn't react well with their skin and caused inflammation.

        While not designed exclusively for the neck, Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Reviews Analyst Chiara Butler uses it from her chin down and loves that the rich body cream contains retinol, a top anti-aging ingredient, at a gentle but effective concentration of 0.1%. "I found that it made my skin feel softer and smoother with regular use," she said.

        "It has a very emollient texture, thanks to the included shea butter, grapeseed oil and evening primrose oil, which are super moisturizing and help counteract the dryness that retinol may cause." The one element that Butler doesn't love is that it's fragrance-free, "so it smells like its ingredients which I don’t prefer."

            This anti-aging neck treatment recommended by Dr. Brauer is hypoallergenic and made with ingredients to replenish sensitive skin. To treat redness and sensitivity in the neck area, "look for ingredients like niacinamide and ceramides," he suggests. The formula also contains peptides to help firm slack skin.

            "It makes my neck look smoother and less obviously horizontally lined, maybe a little tighter," said Stephanie Dolgoff, GH Deputy Health Director. "It is not thick and goopy so it doesn't build up, and has no scent, which is a plus for me.” The only downside: some complained that the pump in the container didn't work and they had to open the product to use it, potentially reducing its efficacy.

              How we test the best neck creams

              Our Lab Tests Prove This Drugstore Neck Cream Actually Tightens Sagging Skin (94)

              In the Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab's neck cream test, experts measure each product's ability to improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles on the neck and lift and tighten neck skin over 12 weeks of use. Consumer testers use the label-masked products at home and evaluated them on factors like texture, irritation, scent, absorption, moisturization effects and the look and feel of skin after application.

              In the Lab, GH Beauty Lab scientists analyzed over 200 images taken with high-resolution professional photography to gauge changes in neck lines and skin laxity before and after 12 weeks of neck cream use, as pictured below. In total, Lab experts tallied 1,711 data points to find the winning neck creams.

              You can use your regular anti-aging treatments on your neck, but products formulated for the neck tend to be gentler on skin and contain targeted ingredients. "Neck creams that contain ingredients to support the skin barrier and hydration, peptides and antioxidants can help in retaining moisture, while also protecting against and addressing UV damage," Dr. Brauer says. "In addition, topicals containing retinol may stimulate collagen formation, aiding in improvement of laxity and fine lines."

              Seek out these key ingredients for specific issues to find an effective neck cream that addresses your skin's needs, dermatologists suggest:

              ✔️ Peptides and retinol, to help improve skin's collagen, boosting skin's smoothness and firmness.
