It's been a long time since I've been so excited to get my hands on a beauty product. I mean, I'm obsessed with products, but they usually don't instill a frenzy of squealing from me...
Until today. I got home after another long day at the office and there was a nice box waiting for me. Inside were some beautiful looking bottles of soap (to be reviewed later) and a small padded envelope that held untold treasure - a full-size tube of Boots No7 Restore & Renew beauty serum!!! EEEEEeeeee!
Ok, breathe, breathe. I don't want to get overly excited in case this product doesn't live up to the hype (and boy, has there been HYPE!) but I am super-jazzed to start trying this out.
Any beauty junkie worth her Smashbox Photo Finish primer has probably heard about this beauty serum from Boots. It sparked a shopping frenzy earlier in the summer in the UK (where it's named Protect & Perfect) with early morning line-ups and sold-out signs everywhere. Then it crossed the ocean to North America, where it got a new name, but had the same reaction from shoppers. Positive reports from the BBC and CNN probably helped.
Anyhow, the package promises:
"Reveal smooth and younger-looking skin with this light, non-greasy and fragrance-free serum. It glides on, instantly softening and smoothing your skin. With regular use, it works to renew your complexion, restoring radiance and helping to reduce the appearance of pores, fine lines and wrinkles in just 4 weeks."
Which means that it will be a several weeks before I post a review, but in the meantime I'm going to have fun trying out this product, which I didn't think I'd get a chance to try for months!

this product i hear is great for the 20 - -30 yr olds for older people 40+ the age rewind is great also
I got a bottle of this and although I haven't been using it long enough to notice a big difference, I do like the way the serum insantly makes my skin ultra smooth and soft.
Ahh, this has caused such excitement over here :) I don't think Boots have ever had such a popular/famous product ;)
OMG! I can *NEVER* find this when I go to Target! LUCKY GIRL!
I know! I'm trying not to get over excited in case I build the product up too much in my mind, but it's hard not to when you see how crazy people are going for this. I think the low price point & positive reviews really helps.
