Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...free face powder. Boots themselves say of their foundation: "Ever so clever colour... take away the guesswork with a foundation that adjusts to match the colour of your skin for a sheer, natural finish. Velvety soft, easily blended and so amazingly light you'll forget it's even there." I have to admit that I can't argue with anything in that statement - this foundation delivers exactly what the advertising blurb promises and for me that is a rare ...
...for Boots as No 7 is their own brand product. There are often deals on with the N0 7 range so you could, in effect, get 3 for the price of 2 or get a goody bag with No 7 products when you spend over a certain amount (usually £15). ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...had given me plus some Boots vouchers I had got from doing a survey. I needed some Cleanser and a new lipstick. I love bargains and I noticed if I spent £15 I would get a goody bag with several items in it, so that was how I discovered Intelligent foundation. I have lots of freckles so my skin colour is quite difficult when it comes to buying foundation. At a make-up party once the organiser used a very pale foundation as she matched it to my wrist ...
...for 40mls. On sale at Boots shops and online. Colour ===== My tube was medium colour and I nearly had a fit when I saw how dark it was! How do you use it? =============== Just as it says on the tube. But this tube (me) didn’t read all the instructions, and didn’t shake the first few times I used it, but to be honest, it is quite thick so I can’t see how shaking will have any effect. I squeeze a little onto my finger and apply to moisturised ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...just strolling around my local Boots one afternoon, playing with Urban Decay eyeshadows and drooling over Chanel perles, when I walked past the No7 counter. Walking past without a second glance is my usual reaction to No7 counters, as they strike me as a "mum" brand, and far too old and sophisticated for the likes of me. This time, however, I was stopped in my tracks by a big pink sign. I could hardly contain my excitement - written upon this wonderful ...
...to make me squeal with joy - "500 extra Advantage Card points". All I had to do was spend £15 on No7. Quickly, I grabbed a tube of Intelligent colour foundation - in the light shade (£12.99 - only £2 to go!), and a pack of face wipes, and trotted up to the checkout to get myself £5 nearer to a Chanel lipgloss on my advantage card. Stupidly, I hadn't even tried this foundation before I splashed the cash - I'd been far too excited by the points. When ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

When it comes to choosing foundation I inevitably end up with the wrong shade, whether it be because of the lighting in-store or just because my skin tone changes throughout the year. So with this in mind I picked up a tube of this Intelligent Colour foundation on a trip to Boots. It costs £13.75 for a 40ml tube and there are only 3 shades to choose from - light, medium and dark. I went with the medium as I have a fairly average olivey type skin ...
...a sleek black tube which is quite small and neat as foundation's go, and it looks really nice with it's gold writing. It's a squeezy tube so you just give it a squeeze to get some of the foundation out. This foundation is supposed to adjust to your skin tone to give you a sheer, natural finish. The tube also says that it's velvety soft, easily blended, and so light you'll forget it's even there. It has SPF6, which whilst it's not as much sun protection ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...You can buy it from Boots Stores and it costs £13.00 **Shades you can get?** You can get it in shades: -03 Dark -02 Medium -01 Light I have fair skin and choose the 01 light. **Packaging** Comes in a simple black tube, and you squeeze it to get the foundation out. So its quite easy to get out. **Why Did I Buy This Product?** I wanted something to cover up a few of my spots and bad blemishes on my skin, and wouldn't look obvious like I had ...
...excellent product to buy because all the awards, advertising and reviews. **My Experience** I had a bad experience with it. Firstly it really didn't match my skin tone, I have tried both fair and medium and both never suited! After a lot of blending I looked like a orange tan and this was in a fair shade! In didn't look natural at all and was very cakey on my skin and I put moisturiser before applying it like no7 said to! It also felt like I had ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...myself when I noticed that Boots No7 had an offer of buy two items and get the third free. First thing I bought was No 7 Intelligent Foundation, for two reasons. 1. It stated on the box that it was New on a green sticker stuck to the top right hand corner of the black box. I like trying new products, which is probably why I have 5 drawers full of the stuff. 2. Because I read the back of the box and I liked the part where it stated ‘Glides on effortlessly ...
...a self-tanning product, which I will write a review of later. The third was a packet of make-up remover wipes that cost £3.99 the other two cost 12.99 each. I often have these lapses of common sense. I spent £26 to get an item for £4. I have kicked myself a dozen times since, as could have chosen something for the same price or near enough. I suppose anybody that reads this would have thought of that immediately but not me. I live in a world of ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...up buying this foundation from Boots purely by chance so I could get my free tinted moisturiser and cleanser that came as part of the package! I'd never bought No 7 make-up before but I was really impressed with this product… *** Price ********** A 40ml bottle costs £12.50 but you only need a tiny amount each application, so it will last for ages (at least 6 months I'd guess, and you can keep the bottle for 24 months once opened) I really liked ...
...lady on the counter at Boots advised me to still wear a moisturiser underneath, so I apply that, leave it for 3 mins or so then apply the foundation and this seems to help it stay on longer. It's easily removed with facial wipes (I use Boots own brand) *** Does it work? ********** Having praised how good it is as a foundation, I must admit I was a bit disappointed with "the science bit!" The Intelligent Colour part of it claims to "adjust to match ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...months to a year. Boots are currently running an offer - buy two No.7 products that total up to over £15 and get 500 points on your Advantage Card. I think this is worth it, as there are loads of quality No.7 products around and you can buy yourself something else with the £5 worth of points you get! I've come across so many expensive foundations that are completely rubbish, but I'm definitely going to be sticking to this product. How can one thing ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...there until I tried this, Boots No 7 Intelligent Colour. My criteria for a good foundation are demanding, I suppose; but if your foundation is wrong the whole makeup looks poor. I want : 1. Value for money. I don’t necessarily mean cheap. Two I like are Margaret Astor and Lancôme, in their water based ranges, and there’s around £8 difference in the price. So the Margaret Astor wins simply because there’s little in it for quality. 2. Ease of application. ...
...when I saw the new Boots foundation. I’d bought a L’Oréal which was far too heavy, and because I hate throwing bad cosmetic buys away I was diluting the stuff with moisturiser and whingeing every time I put it on. Then, on my weekly prowl round all the cosmetics counters, I saw Boots No 7 Intelligent Colour Foundation. It cost £12, but there were 500 extra points, so I bought it. I liked the look of it in its slimline , flat black tube with gold ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...with the lady at the Boots make-up counter the trouble I'd had with skin (by that I mean spots). She suggested that maybe it was due to the fact that the foundation I was using was slightly too thick and causing dirt to clog in my skin. She then disappeared under her counter and pulled out what she suggested would help to solve my problem. I use quite a lot of No.7 products so I didn't need much persuading when it came to trying Boots No.7 Intelligent ...
...with where you can buy Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation as it is only sold by Boots. You can also buy it online at www.boots.com if you don't live near a Boots store. It retails at £14.40. This may seem a little expensive but No.7 often has 3 for 2 offers, so if you buy it then you'll save yourself almost £15. *My Opinion* Packaging: This No.7 foundation comes in a black squeezy tube with a screw-on lid. It's very easy to use: just unscrew ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...a bit more colour. The Boots No 7 Intelligent Colour foundation comes in a range of 3 colours - light, medium and dark. Although I am quite light-skinned, I use the medium colour. On squeezing it out of the bottle, it is always rather a shock to see how dark it is - but thanks to the 'intelligent colour' features, it blends in really well for a really smooth, flawless finish. Although I like my evening makeup to look a tad darker, I also like it ...
...When going out, it lasts well and stays shine-free throughout the night. It is also thick enough to hide imperfections and red cheeks, without being difficult to get off, or without rubbing off on everything around you. I definitely recommend this product - although I haven't tried the other shades, I am sure they are just as good. The colour really does adapt to your skin-tone, and goes on so easily. As it says on the bottle, it leaves your skin ...

...it a go! The boots No7 brand of make –up launch in 1935, and I think by now it’s a well known band to all, with the likes of Madonna, Rachel Stevens and Sadie Frost singing its praises, there’s no wonder why it is today’s leading cosmetic brand in the UK. I had bought nail varnishes and lip-gloss before, but never a foundation, Intelligent Balance Foundation came to my attention when I found out it was one of Cat Deely's secrects! The foundation ...
...product is available from all boots stores with a No7 counter. The price of a 40ml tube is £12.50, which may sound expensive but I’m still on my first tube and I wear this foundation most days, a little goes a long way!!. The foundation is Hypo-Allergenic and fragrance free. More info can be found on the boots website under Cosmetics and No7. The product can also be purchased from the website. www.boots.com Thanks for Reading Lou xXx ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

I bought the new Boots Intelligent Colour foundation a couple of weeks ago, after it's praises were sung by several magazines. I paid £12.99 for it, which is a bit more than I would normally pay, but I thought I would look great! The basic principle is that Boots have produced three shades - light, medium and dark. You decide which applies to you and the foundation then adjusts itself to your skin. Fantastic!! No more orange lines, pasty streaks ...
...Now, I'm not blaming Boots for the whole debacle. I should have got a tester and tried it out on the back of my neck or somewhere first. This is something I should know by now. I was temporarily deluded by the promises on the box. However, I still love you Boots, even though you've caused me pain. So, in conclusion, if you have sensitive skin GET A TESTER FIRST. If not, fair play to you and purchase at will. Excellent idea really, shame about my ...

Review of Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation

...was a bit apprehensive about Boots No 7's Intelligent Colour Foundation when I first heard about it. Certainly skin colour cannot be easily categorised into 3: Light, Medium and Dark. How can all the different races in the world be put into three easy categories? After reading rave reviews I finally bought it. I bought it because my clinique foundation stick was finishing and I was truly unhappy with it and because I couldn't be bothered to look ...
...oriental without the yellow, how complicated is that?)and it was fairly affordable £12 for 40ml. So I picked up the medium shade. The tube is black with gold lettering. Simple but not really to my liking. It claims to be a super lightweight and soft foundation...which sounds good because the last thing I want to look like is caked. It is supposed to create a sheer natural finish. It is also non pore blocking and has spf6. The thing I like best ...
