Skincare fans looking to give their usual regime a bit of a boost in time for the New Year are flocking to Rodial to take advantage of its Winter Outlet.

Featuring a host of the brand’s high-end products, shoppers will find some significant discounts on Rodial’s most sought-after ranges – with some rumoured to be loved by Princess Kate. The Bee Venom Body Serum is one such product on sale, which has won over users for allegedly making their skin ‘less crepey’ after a few weeks.

The limited-time sale, which lasts until 9 January, gives both new and loyal customers a chance to try or replenish their supplies at a fraction of the regular cost. The outlet features top sellers like the Bee Venom and Placenta 24 Carat Gold Ultimate Crème (£95 from its original price of £750), Vit C Pads, Snake Serum and more, all available without the need for a discount code.

Rodial’s Bee Venom Body Serum, now priced at £45 down from £75, is a lightweight gel concoction designed to smooth and brighten skin without leaving any sticky residue. The brand claims it absorbs swiftly, making it suitable for both morning and night-time use. Its immediate results leave skin feeling soft and instantly rejuvenated.

Its rose and honey fragrance reportedly lends it a spa-like quality, which adds to its luxury. But perhaps the hero of this serum is the Rodial Bee Venom Melittin peptide, renowned for enhancing elasticity and texture, according to the brand.

Said to ‘boost collagen’, the serum promises to give the skin a firmer, more even appearance over time. It also contains vitamin E, an antioxidant known to protect the skin and enhance hydration levels, reports the Mirror.

Many users have praised its effectiveness on areas like the arms and elbows, where skin can often appear drier or less smooth.

For those seeking an alternative, the No7 Protect and Perfect Intense Advanced Moisturising Body Serum (200ml) is available for £24.95 from Boots. This ‘non-greasy body serum’ is said to target the visible signs of ageing, helping to make skin feel firmer and lifted.

LookFantastic also stocks the Bali Body Hydrating Body Serum (180ml), priced at £28.95. This ‘nourishing body serum’ is formulated to prepare and prime the skin before fake tan application.

Meanwhile, the Bee Venom Body Serum has garnered impressive reviews on the Rodial website, with one customer declaring: “Excellent. l have dry thin skin usually, after four days (it has) significantly improved.”

Another reviewer shared: “I lost a lot of weight and my skin was loose. I read an article and decided to try it. It brought elasticity back to my skin and helped lift it back to its original state. It’s my new body staple now.”

One cautious customer noted it was premature to judge, commenting: “Super fast delivery. Serum smells lovely. Too early to report on efficacy just yet, but will report back in four weeks.”

The same person added: “Only a week in, but seem to be noticing a difference, going to order again as I feel you need time to 100 per cent say it works.”

Generally, customers were delighted with the results, with another testimonial stating: “I have previously purchased this product, so I know I love it! It’s very light and dry within minutes, with no stickiness, so ideal to use morning and night. It leaves your skin feeling soft and within two weeks my skin, especially on my arms and elbows was less crepey.

“After a six stone weight loss, this is just what I needed. It was a great price as I bought it on Black Friday directly from Rodial with free postage. I ordered it late Thursday night and it arrived this morning (Saturday).”

Also available is Rodial’s Bee Venom and Placenta 24 Carat Gold Ultimate Crème, currently discounted to £95 from its original price of £750. According to the brand’s website, this product is designed to brighten, smooth, and rejuvenate the skin, targeting multiple visible signs of ageing.

The luxurious formula aims to leave skin feeling softer, more even, and noticeably more radiant. It can be used as the final step after cleansing, including with the brand’s Bee Venom Cleansing Balm.

The cream combines bee venom, vitamin C and placenta protein to help improve skin tone and texture, while a nano peptide bound with 24-carat gold works to promote a firmer, more youthful appearance, according to the brand. These ingredients are paired with amino acids and minerals to nourish the skin and improve the appearance of fine lines, expression lines and uneven tone.
