10 Reasons Why Women Over 60 Are Wearing Short Sleeves Again With This "Cover & Rebuild" Arm Stick

You barely touched anything. Maybe it was a door frame, the dog or the garden, but soon there's a dark purple mark on your forearm, and it'll be there for weeks.

So out come the long sleeves, even in the middle of summer.

Your doctor says it's thin skin and nothing can be done. The bruise creams fade one mark, concealer hides it for an evening, and the next one comes anyway.

This stick goes after the cause. It rebuilds the thin skin underneath, so fewer new marks show up. And while it works, it covers the ones you have in seconds.

1It Covers Purple, Red And Brown Marks

These marks change colour as they heal. Purple at first, red at the edges a few days later, then a brown stain that lingers for weeks.

This formula contains colour-correcting pigments that neutralise purple, red and brown at once, so one layer covers a new mark and an old stain on the same arm.

The result is even, natural-looking skin from elbow to fingertips.

2It Rebuilds The Thin Skin That Causes The Marks

Your doctor is right that it's thin skin. The skin on your arms has thinned like tissue paper over tiny blood vessels, so even a watch band can leave a mark.

That's why the bruise creams never stopped the next one. They fade the mark on top, but never reach the thin skin underneath.

This stick contains vitamin C, which skin uses to rebuild collagen. In a 12-week study on people over 60 with these marks, the arm treated with vitamin C ended up with fewer marks and thicker skin than the arm without.

The result: you cover them on day one, and fewer new ones show up over the weeks.

3It Works Without Changing Your Medication

Eliquis, aspirin, prednisone. They all make skin bruise more easily, and stopping them isn't an option.

This stick goes on the skin. Nothing to swallow. Nothing new in your pill box. It's fragrance-free and gentle enough for the backs of your hands.

Care and coverage, without changing a thing about your medication.

4It Protects Your Arms From Further Sun Damage

Years of sun are one of the main reasons the skin on the forearms and hands has thinned, and arms are the one part you can't keep out of it, in the garden or outside in summer.

This stick has broad-spectrum SPF built in, so every layer shields your arms while you're outside.

So the new skin you're building isn't undone by this summer's sun.

5It Helps Today's Mark Fade Faster

On thin skin, a fresh mark can take weeks to fade.

That's why this stick contains Nordic arnica, grown in the mountains of Norway. To survive the long, harsh winters, the flower grows tougher and builds more of the natural compounds that help bruises fade. It works on today's mark while the stick covers it.

The result: today's mark is covered and gone sooner, while vitamin C works on the next one.

6It Goes On Gently And Stays Put

Regular body makeup has to be rubbed in, rubs off on sleeves, and needs scrubbing to remove, on skin that tears from almost nothing.

This formula blends in with a few light strokes of the fingertips and sets to a transfer-resistant finish that holds through summer heat.

It stays on your arms, not your blouse, and comes off with warm water. No rubbing, no scrubbing.

7It Looks Like Your Own Arms, Even Up Close

Purple marks and brown stains make arms look years older than the rest of you, and arms are seen up close: across the table, holding a hand, in family photos.

This lightweight formula evens out every mark in a single layer, with a natural finish that never looks painted on.

The arms you had before the marks.

8No More Looks At Your Arms

Maybe it's the woman at the nail salon, or someone in the checkout line. A glance at your arms, a sad smile, sometimes a look like something is wrong at home.

When the marks are covered, the looks stop. Nobody wonders what happened to your arms. You're just out, enjoying your day.

And as fewer new marks show up, there's less to cover each morning.

9It Uses Ingredients Your Skin Already Knows

Many body lotions and makeups are packed with fragrance, fillers and long ingredient lists that thin, sensitive skin doesn't need.

This formula is built on a short list of ingredients: Nordic arnica to help fresh marks fade, vitamin C to help skin rebuild collagen, and hydrating plant oil to keep dry, crepey skin soft.

The result is calm, comfortable skin, and ingredients you'd recognise on the label working on your arms all day.

100-day risk-free money-back guarantee

10100-Day Risk-Free Trial

Many women have been told nothing can be done, and have tried cream after cream with little to show for it.

That's why this stick comes with a 100-day risk-free trial, plus an exclusive discount.

If you don't love how your arms look, you'll receive a full refund. No questions asked.

My doctor said it was just age and nothing could be done. I'd tried every bruise cream on the shelf. I started wearing this every day for the cover, but after a month I noticed I was getting far fewer new marks. My arms haven't looked this good in years.

I was tired of people asking what happened to my arms. My granddaughter, a lady at church, even a nurse once. I'd stopped wearing short sleeves altogether. Now I put this on in the morning, it takes a minute, and nobody asks anymore. I'd forgotten what that felt like.

My son got married in July and I'd spent weeks looking for a dress with long sleeves. In the end I wore the sleeveless one I actually liked. I covered my arms that morning, and in every photo they looked like my own arms again. Nobody could tell I had anything on.

If you made it to the end, you deserve arms you're happy to show again!
