2024's 5 Best Neck Firming Creams
Do you know what part of your face INSTANTLY gives away your age to a stranger? Is it your eyes… the wrinkles on your forehead… or how about the lines around your mouth? Believe it or not, it's your neck! That's why if you have sagging jowls, “turkey neck,” “necklace lines,” or a droopy double chin, you may appear up to 15-20 years OLDER than you really are.
Our researchers and review team test-drove top-selling neck cream products so you wouldn’t have to. In coming up with their list of must-have neck creams, our researches and testers reviewed dozens of products to see which ones lived up to their promise of firmer, tighter, more youthful-looking skin.
Here are their selections for THE 5 BEST of the best neck firming creams:
1 —
LE NUAGE, SUPER ANTI-AGING NECK AND DÉCOLLETAGE CREAM
Effectiveness: 95%
Safety: 100%
Price: $$
Overall: A+
After just a handful of uses, our researchers and testers almost unanimously reported seeing—and feeling—a tangible difference in tautness along the neck and jawline with Super Anti-Aging Neck & Décolleté Cream. Many also commented that the product left their skin dewy-fresh and noticeably plumped up over time. Others gave a thumbs-up to the creamy but not too thick texture as well as its paraben-, sulfate- and cruelty-free status. A very reasonable price point (we LOVED the 30% off subscription option!) and free shipping was the cherry on top. Made with a powerful Peptide Complex, the cream also boasts a Vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid base that drenches skin in moisture. These carefully selected ingredients help to firm the skin’s appearance and reduce the look of lines.
Le Nuage has hundreds of reviews from insanely happy women, and many customers have had some incredible results. Our favorite is a customer who says she looks now “20 years younger!”
Before & After: Super Anti-Aging Neck & Décolletage Cream by Le Nuage
Effectiveness: 90%
Safety: 85%
Price: $$$$
Overall: B+
One of our all-time favorite neck creams is Revision Skincare's Nectifirm lotion because it absorbs quickly and contains nourishing ingredients like skin-firming peptides, brightening vitamin C, and moisture-retaining vitamin E. It provides a nice dose of antioxidants for a brightening effect and inclusion of red algae to lift and firm. If you’re willing to open up that purse and dig in, it’s a great recommendation, we totally loved it!
3 —
NEOSTRATA, TRIPLE FIRMING NECK CREAM
Effectiveness: 89%
Safety: 85%
Price: $$$
Overall: B+
This rich, indulgent moisturizer is enriched with amino acid chains (also known as peptides) to firm the skin while shea butter and antioxidant vitamin E condition. Its formula also contains a special ingredient called neoglucosamine, which is an amino sugar that helps diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This is a strong cream that certainly help reduce fine lines - but we did not see as much improvement as we would like based on other cream’s results.

ESTÈE LAUDER, RESILIENCE MULTI-EFFECT TRI-PEPTIDE FACE AND NECK CREME
Effectiveness: 85%
Safety: 95%
Price: $$$
Overall: B+
With its trio of skin-firming peptides and silky texture, it’s no wonder so many testers initially loved Estée Lauder Resilience Multi-Effect Tri-Peptide Face and Neck Crème. This dermatologist-tested formula also performed highly in consumer panels. But there are a host of other ingredients in this formulation that we try to avoid, such as PEGs, petrolatum, sulfates, and added fragrance and color, all of which can cause irritation. That convinced some of our testers to look elsewhere.

ROC, MULTI CORREXION 5 IN 1 CHEST, NECK & FACE CREAM
Effectiveness: 75%
Safety: 80%
Price: $
Overall: B
RoC's Multi Correxion 5 in 1 Chest, Neck & Face Cream is a great choice because it moisturizes skin with glycerin and shea butter while shielding you from UV-induced sun damage with broad-spectrum SPF 30. While we like the price and reviews, we did not see line reduction as with some of the other products.
