I am all for affordable (or relatively) affordable but effective skincare. I have a set of SKII skincare in my to use box but I’m to scared to use it – it cost me a fair penny, and if it makes me break out then…its just…too hard to contemplate.
My next main dabbling or should I say trial (after Karin Herzog – verdict coming up) may be this – Boots No. 7′s new Lift & Luminate (not Illuminate, which is what I keep calling it) Skincare range!
Remember the fuss over Protect & Perfect? How it sold out everywhere? Well there’s a new dual named range:
Boots tested this on over 500 volunteers, In vitro and In vivo.
(In vitro means tested in a dish, and In vivo means on a person. One of my best friends is a Cosmetic Scientist!).
Half of the volunteers faces used the Lift & Luminate and the other with standard moisturizer. The skin was then measured using Ultrasound (skin density), Cutometer (for elasticity) and ‘dermal remodelling’ (how the skin changed under the surface).
I am sort of excited….
I don’t get breakouts with No. 7 products so I am hopeful.
The range is for older women, aged 45+ but I’ll give it ago – prevention rather than cure!
The range is:
No7 Lift & Luminate Day Cream, £19.50 for 50ml
No7 Lift & Luminate Night Cream, £20.50 for 50ml
No7 Lift & Luminate Eye Cream, £16.50 for 15ml
No. 7 Lift & Luminate Foundation, £15.50 for 30ml
Launch date: 27th January (Out Now!)

Dear Sir/Madam
I would like to congrans you on No7 Lift & Luminate day cream. My age is 48 and ever since I started using the day cream, I have noticed a big diffrence in my skin. I have combination skin and still suffer from spots. When I first put the lift and luminate on my face I could feel my skin drinking it, it felt so plump and extremly soft with a added glow.
Even after washing my face with water I no longer have that feeling of wearing a mask.
My skin feels softer and younger looking and more fresh.
Thank you so so much No 7 for your lift & Luminate day cream! This is just like Gold.
You have really saved my life!

I bought a Boots No7 Lift & Luminate Night Cream ; it is so bad that I will use it on my feet / body rather than my face. Do not buy it!
