Tag Archives: Lift & Luminate

For my money, Boots’ No. 7 skin creams are right up there beside some of the high-end brands in terms of quality. Of course, they’re not cheap: in fact, they fall into a price bracket that’s not too far off that of some of the aforementioned high-end brands, but having been pretty much raised on No. 7 (my mum has been a fan for as long as I can remember and I swear by their Protect & Perfect range), I’m always interested in a new release in the skincrae line.

This one is called “Lift and Luminate”. I bet you can’t guess what it does, can you? Yes! It lifts and… luminates the skin! Aimed at the “more mature woman”, here’s what Boots have to say about the line:

 ”Quench thirsty skin with this intensely hydrating cream, specially formulated to visibly improve the appearance of wrinkles and to give you an instant boost of radiance. Our unique anti-ageing and advanced energising complexes work together to lift, firm and to restore your complexion, leaving it looking and feeling healthy and glowing. Use it every day to help reduce the signs of ageing; in just four weeks, your skin will be more even toned, younger-looking and more luminous.”

So far, so like Protect & Perfect, then, but as this is aimed at a slightly older demographic, Boots say it will also make the skin feel firmer, rather than “just” reducing the appearance of wrinkles. As you’ll have noticed from the blurb above, they also say this will happen in just four weeks, which makes me wonder if it’ll sell out as quickly as P&P did when it was originally launched, too.

There’s a day cream (£19.50) , a night cream (£20.50 each) and an eye cream (£19.50) and these are available now from Boots.
