Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream

...have used over the years. Boots describe their cold cream as 'deep cleansing and softening' and I would happily agree with both of those statements. Boots Cold Cream is part of their Traditional Skin Care range. A couple of years ago I was attracted to buying this as I had just decided that most of my skin problems were probably due to the wide variety of lotions and potions I was subjecting it to. I'd use a treatment for oily skin which would result ...
...So I was attracted to Boots Cold Cream because it is a very traditional product and doesn't have added vitamins or AHAs (whatever they may be) or plant extracts or any nonsense. True it's made of good old-fashioned chemicals (paraffin, stearic acid, although it is lanolin free) but so are most beauty products, although they pretend to be the juice of freshly squeezed leaves. I also liked the packaging - a white, squat tub with green and gold writing ...

Review of Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream

I have been using Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream for a number of years and have always been very satisfied with the product. I have also introduced my daughter to it and neither of us had any problems with the original formulation. However the most recent jars we have bought burns both our eyes and faces. It is also much thicker and harder to remove make-up. The formulation is different as I have compared the ingredients list on the new jar ...

Review of Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream

...which I am glad that Boots still do produce such products, only bought it a moment ago, therefore I shall report after using it for a while. Like the excellent reviewer before me, I very much agree everything noted from the price(no advertising cost), design (1930's) and formula (simple but effective) of such product. As I have using cold cream from various origin, namely from China which also deem very old fashion but one can still buy it in Hong ...
...must say but I do not think one can buy in here in UK, but if one is in Hong Kong, do look out for it). I mostly use cold cream for body moisturising daily after shower, as I love using soap which makes me feel squeaky clean and problem free, cold cream is just the right thing to use after using soap. I also use E45 cream which has a more hydrate property but not as long lasting then cold cream, and one needs more of it in order to stay soft and ...

Review of Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream

...My cream is TOTALLY different. Boots are still packaging it the same way and the ingredients listed are even the same, and yet my newest cream is completely different to my old one. The cream inside does not even look the same. My mum's cream is totally pure white and mine is pinky in colour. Why have boots changed it? It's now much thicker, oilier, and much more greasy. It almost has a vaseline texture. I have been using this for two years and the ...
...takes some scrubbing and a lot of cotton wool too! It's awful! I need answers. When I realised this change could be why my face has a rash, I threw the Cold Cream away straight away!! I am going to contact Boots and see what they have to say!! ...

Review of Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream

What has happened to the boots traditional cold cream???? I have used it religiously to the exclusion of all others for the past 15 years and the jar before last and my recent one have been such a let down. Instead of the lovely creamy texture that soaks into your skin and removes eye make up, mascara and eyeliner by melting everything gently, we now have this petroleum smelling, lard texture which does not permeate the skin, does not melt the eye ...
...what has happened??? Obviously Boots have changed the ingredients, but why - is the new stuff cheaper - why would they want to change such a fantastic product - I have recommended it to hundreds of people over the years (I am 51 myself, so have lots of experience of other products). This product made my skin soft and moisturised and has surely kept me looking years younger than my actual age - but unless Boots revert to the old recipe, this is the ...

Review of Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream

I found this cream wonderfully rich & softening.It cleansed really well & smelt beautiful too. Really good value & good quality. I find this range generally is a very good quality & found it does not irritate my skin as they do not seem to have too many chemicals in them. ...

Review of Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream

...I, too, have used Boots Traditional Cold Cream for many years and it was a lovely product. However, in contrast, the latest jar I bought is sticky in consistency and does not soak into your make up or skin, but lays on top and takes a lot of effort to wipe it off which I'm sure pulls the skin unnecessarily. I thought I had a faulty jar, but my mum started on a new jar and hers is the same. Its obvious that Boots have altered the ingredients, no doubt ...

I would reccomend this to anyone who has dry skin or conditions like that. The mixture is thick and oily , so when i'm ...
