No7 - One of the best fake tans!

Advantages: Instant glow, develops into a really natural-looking tan, smells ok, leaves your skin silky smooth
Disadvantages: Slight smell, but what fake tans don't!

...Having tried several fake tan products available on the market, I came across the Boots No 7 Quick Dry Self-Tan lotion some time ago, and fell in love straight away! The lotion is smooth and non-greasy, and rubs in easily. It is absorbed quite quickly, and makes your skin really smooth and silky - not all oily like some other tanning products. Although it gives an instant hint of colour, the real tan doesn't start developing for a few hours. Personally, I think it is best when put on for bed - the next morning, you wake up with a fantastic glow! I have the medium/dark version, which gives a great tan after the first application. Unlike so many other products, it does not turn you orange - just a fantastic, gorgeous brown, which is not so strong as to look unnatural. I have received so many compliments before, and recommended it to so...

Review of Boots No.7 Quick Dry Self Tan Lotion

Another great self tan product

Advantages: Golden skin
Disadvantages: No orange marks

...Ladies, I have found yet another excellent self tanning lotion that you must try. There really is no excuse for white pasty skin any more! This self tan is from the No.7 range and it's priced at £9.50 for 200ml which I think is a reasonable price. It's a special fake tan because it is tinted so when you apply the fake tank you can see where you have applied it and where you have missed. It comes in a yellow box and it states that it contains jojoba extract, cocoa butter and vitamins A and E to moisturise and nourish skin. It also says that it is Hypoallergenic and non pore blocking which is the general rule about N0.7 products. You can use this on your face or body so no need to buy a separate one. I choose the fair/medium type but if you have darker skin or want a darker tan then choose the medium/dark colour. The fake tan...

Boots Soltan Self Tan Light

Advantages: nice, streak free tan
Disadvantages: the way Boots kept prompting you to buy their other products through the directions on the can

...Boots Soltan Self Tan Light Three months I won this in a packet of prizes. Last week, with the good weather (though I like the weather, I don't want skin care so instead of hours of sunbathing and burnt skin, I opted for faking it) I decided I wasn't going to be the palest person on the planet and got to work. I normally use the Piz Buin fake tan and I'm never used mousse before. There's no category for the light mousse so I hope you don't mind me put it in the Medium section. ++Variety, the price and availability ++ There are only two mousses. Soltan Self Tan No Streaks Mousse Light and Soltan Self Tan No Streaks Mousse Medium. Also there's sprays, wipes or lotion in the self-tan range of Boots. As it's a Boots brand, you can only get it at Boots. It's on special offer so at the moment it's £4.65 instead being £6...

Boots No7 Stay Perfect Eyeshadow (Innocence)

Advantages: Nice texture, colour comes out well
Disadvantages: Expensive, small, difficult to use brush

...Yet again last week I found myself with a £5 off No7 voucher from Boots! This time I decided I would buy a light coloured eyeshadow because my usual one had smashed in my bag! I always like to have one which has a little brush inside the pot so I can take it around in my bag and still use it easily. So when I noticed No7 do one like this I decided to try it. I was surprised that it was £7, as it's a pretty small eyeshadow, but with the voucher it meant I only paid £2. The only pale colour I could see was a nice cream colour called "Innocence" Packaging It comes in a little black case with gold 'No7' on the front. When you open it the eyeshadow takes up about ¾ of the space inside and there is a really cute little brush in the other bit. In some ways it is good that it is small because it fits really easily in your bag but I...

Boots No.7 Instant Radiance Concealer - brilliant product

Advantages: Blends nicely, conceals dark shadows, one tube lasts a few months
Disadvantages: No way of knowing when it will run out, cleaning the brush is a mild nuisance

...I've always had quite dark circles under my eyes which never completely go away however much sleep I've had. My previous experiences with using the normal, old-fashioned concealer sticks have looked cakey and dry, and give the appearance that I have wrinkles, which is most unwelcome! Like other reviewers that have commented on the Instant Radiance Concealer, I had read about Touch Eclat by Yves Saint Laurent and wondered if I should invest in it, but thought the price was prohibitive. Reading up about Instant Radiance Concealer on the Boots website convinced me that this would be a reasonably-priced alternative, so I bought some on my next visit to the shop. It comes in a narrow black box with an instruction leaflet. The concealer itself is contained in a cylinder that looks similar to a pen. The concealer costs £12.75 which isn...

Review of Boots No.7 Instant Radiance Concealer

A hint of sun for a rainy summer

Advantages: easy to apply, streak free
Disadvantages: Looked a tiny bit orange

...products, and came across No.7 Quick Dry Tinted Lotion. I have no recollection of buying or using this, and although the bottle was virtually full, it was obvious it had been used (or maybe tested) at some point. It's described as a wear off tan for light/medium skin tones (there is also one for medium/dark) and can be used on the face and body. It contains aloe vera and camomile extracts as well as vitamin A and vitamin E. ~Packaging~ It comes in a round, sleek looking bottle, which is dark brown in colour with a white pearly lid. It's quite a plain and simple design, but full instructions for use are included on the back. The bottle also has a pump action dispenser which can be twisted to lock in place - quite handy I think, as it will prevent spillages. ~Using it~ Before applying this, I shaved, exfoliated and moisturised my legs...

Boots No7 36- Lash Mascara

Advantages: Easy to remove
Disadvantages: Useless brush, doesn't do what it claims

...And so my bad luck with Mascara's continues? I decided to buy this mascara this week after being pleased with the No7 Volume mascara in the past. This one was £11.50 but I had a £5 off voucher so it didn't seem too much for a No7 mascara. I chose this particular one because the name sounded appealing and the promises it made to make your lashes much more curled and thicker looking. Also there was a display on the counter of the exciting new brush which did look rather good, with its coiled middle and normal bristles on the outside. Also the display brush was pink which somehow made it more appealing even though the one you buy would obviously never actually look pink! Packaging The mascara comes in a tall silvery gold bottle which looks really nice, and was another reason I chose this mascara. It looked better than all...

St Tropez Self Tan

Advantages: Great colour and very even colour
Disadvantages: Takes time and alot of effort

...St Tropez is a great range that contains all the products needed for a fantastic natural looking all year round tan. It claims to work instantly for a streak less application that will last for days. It comes in an 8oz bottle with a handy pump action, which makes it a lot easier to use. I paid £26.50 for this, which I know does seem like a lot. I initially brought the St Tropez mousse however this brought me out in a rash so I had to discontinue using it. My friend used this lotion so I borrowed a little bit and I didn?t have the same reaction so decided to give it ago. I did love this at first because it brought me out in such a dark tan and I even had one done professionally, which cost £25, I thought after it was a waste of money because it really is easy enough to do it at home and get the same results. This is in my...

Review of St. Tropez Self Tan Lotion

boots no 7

Advantages: great coverage
Disadvantages: not great in the summer

...I have used many no 7 foundations over the years and, think that although it is not the best for price it gives the best coverage and it lasts. Boots No 7 Intelligent Balance Mousse Foundation comes in various shades Suede, Tan, Buff, Almond, Ivory and Blonde. I use Blonde in all the ranges of foundation that no 7 have. This gives your skin a soft finish as the foundation blends easily with the skin and leaves you face with a flawless finish to cover all those blemishes, so all you require is a little powder brushed over the top and it looks great. I use this more in the winter, I use a tinted moisturiser in the summer as I think you need a lighter look in the sun and this does not do that well as it gives a great coverage but in the summer it tends to melt whilst on you face and it ends up looking uneven. Where as in the summer...
