Boots customers can take advantage of the sales to stock up on essential beauty products for less. The high street retailer has been hosting its post-Christmas sale event for several days now.
A favourite among shoppers is the No7 range, which includes numerous gift sets perfect for those who like to plan ahead and stash away future presents or treat themselves after Christmas. Hundreds have already browsed the virtual aisles since the sale started just before Christmas Day.
One standout set that customers are snapping up is the No7 Ultimate Beauty 9 Piece Collection, retailing at £42.50 online. It includes nine items that, if purchased separately, would cost over £136, making this bundle a real steal.
Boots has stated that the Ultimate Beauty Collection is “back and better than ever before”. The online description states: “Including some of the most iconic and most loved products such as the No7 Protect and Perfect day cream, which instantly makes your skin look more radiant, and mini Future Renew serum to reverse visible signs of skin damage, plus a whole host of No7 beauty favourites.”
Marketed as being suitable for those with sensitive skin, there’s a generous selection within the reasonably-priced golden beauty box.
Most of the items inside are full-sized, offering even more value for money. This gift set contains:
- FULL SIZE: No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Dual Action Cleansing Water 200ml
- FULL SIZE: No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Day Cream SPF15 50ml
- FULL SIZE: No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Night Cream 50ml
- MINI: No7 Future Renew Damage Reversal Serum 5ml
- MINI: No7 Pure Retinol 0.3% Retinol Night Concentrate 10ml
- FULL SIZE: No7 Skin Illuminator Nude 30ml
- FULL SIZE: No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Eye Cream 15ml
- FULL SIZE: No7 Lash Extender Fibre Lash Mascara 7ml
- FULL SIZE: No7 Biodegradable* Cleansing Wipes – 30 wipes
Hundreds of former customers have given the beauty bundle five-star reviews. One said: “Super! I love No7. I’m 76 and people are always asking what face creams I use as I look so much younger!”
Another satisfied customer shared: “This was a perfect selection of skincare for me as I use all the products and was thrilled to have bought them together. Each product works well and does what it claims to do.”
A third added: “I buy one of these every year (when they are on sale) as a present for myself. My face is quite dry, but these creams make it feel much better. They and the other make-up primers help to stop patches appearing when I put makeup on.”
Another added: “Love this collection. Always great products and value for money.” However, not all feedback was positive.
A less content buyer said: “I bought this as an alternative to my usual Estée Lauder and Clinique. Since using the night cream my skin has become very sore and it clearly doesn’t suit me. I will stick to my usual brands in future as I am now stuck with and expensive mistake.”
Another noted an issue with the scent of the items, saying: “I did notice a difference in the texture of my skin after a few days, for the better, but I had to stop using it all. The perfumes used made me cough and wheeze all day and I had to use my inhalers far too much.
“I have seasonal asthma but have never been affected before. Why use perfumes to the extent of every item when it’s for sensitive skin? I stopped using after three days, and my asthma subsided.”
Savvy shoppers can now make the most of post-Christmas discounts. For instance, they can get the LBL Pro-Glow Vitamin C Day Cream, CBD Eye Cream & Serum set for just £32, a significant reduction from its original price of £223.
Alternatively, Amazon is offering a limited-time deal on the ESPA Harmonising Hydration Collection, normally priced at £114 but currently available for £39.90.
