Sign up to try out NEW No7 Restore & Renew Day & Night Serum NOW CLOSED

We've been asked by Boots UK to find 100 gransnetters to try out their new No7 Restore & Renew Day & Night Serum.

Here’s what Boots UK have to say, “No7 is the UK’s leading skincare brand who’s ambition is to allow women to tell their story through their own voice. NEW No7 Restore & Renew Day & Night Serum is specially formulated for more mature skin and actively targets the five key signs of ageing: wrinkles, lack of firmness, uneven pigmentation, fragility and dull skin. In clinical trials, after four weeks of use, both light reflecting characteristics and levels of natural moisture return to similar levels of younger skin. We’ve had great feedback so far, but we’d love to hear what gransnetters think about the product as well!”

This product test is open to all UK gransnetters. If you are selected to take part, you’ll be sent 2x15ml No7 Restore & Renew Day & Night Serum to try. You would need to use the product each day and night for at least 4 but preferably 8 weeks and then add your feedback to the feedback thread on Gransnet (we'll send you a link to this nearer the time).

Everyone who takes part and adds their comments will be entered into a prize draw to win a No7 skincare bundle worth over £100.

Boots may use any comments posted on this thread in marketing, editorial and/or promotional material so please only post if you are happy with that.

If you’re allergic to any ingredients found in cosmetics please check the ingredients of the serums.

If you’re interested in taking part please fill out the sign up form here.

Thanks and good luck,

GNHQ

love to try it

wallers5 Thu 10-Oct-13 17:03:19

A popular test it seems. Please add me if space allows. I am very much into serums.

chrismse1 Thu 10-Oct-13 10:42:59

I have never tried No 7 serum so it would be great to test it. I usually just use the simple range.

pamelaJEAN Thu 10-Oct-13 10:41:36

I would love to test this product, my skin definately needs, renewed and restored !!! I love Boots products.... and they are within my price range.

LaraGransnet (GNHQ) Thu 10-Oct-13 10:32:05

They're going quickly but we've got a few more places left for product testers. If you're interested sign up here.

I would love to try this. I have used the Protect and Perfect in the past and loved it. I only changed to Avon for the convenience of home delivery. I do occasionally use serums and they really plump and soften my skin.
I am a stickler for skin protection, I put day cream on first thing before I walk the dogs and reapply after showering, I always use a night cream too. I regularly use treatment creams to boost my regime and think my skin is ok for my age but am noticing more signs of ageing. Might be time to try something else. I would like to slow the clock down as much as possible.

I have used No 7 basic serum for years and would love to try these out. I've just started using the eye cream in a tube and that's great too

I put my name down as I need all the help I can get! grin

Galen Sat 05-Oct-13 19:38:21

Yes please! I'm desperate! I'll try anything except surgery!

Mrspn19479 Sat 05-Oct-13 18:54:14

Yes I'll try it please, if the list is still open.

GillieB Fri 04-Oct-13 20:47:45

Whilst I always use a Day and a Night Cream, I haven't often used a serum, so would be really interested to see what it does.

crysta Fri 04-Oct-13 20:12:50

I would love to give this serum a trial, I like using a serum before using my moisturiser, which I think has helped as I don't think I look my age.

mrsredboots Fri 04-Oct-13 19:02:49

I would love to test it, if there is still space. I have just bought some no 7 night cream - not the Protect and Perfect one - as it is so lovely and light. My favourite moisturisers are from L'Occitane en Provence and Elemis, but I can't normally afford them!

Pamaga Fri 04-Oct-13 17:27:08

I'd love to test the No 7 serum. I have used the make-up for years but have tended to use products by Yves Rocher serum for other skin care - also products like Eucerin dry skin cream. I have quite a sensitive skin and am concerned about erupting in a rash if I use something different but I trust Boots and certainly the make-up gives me no problems.
I am 66 now and probably need to use a wider range of skincare products than I have done in the past so this would afford me a great opportunity to branch out a bit.

Thank you Lara. And thank you to the Boots UK spokesperson for the answer smile

janie123 Fri 04-Oct-13 15:43:04

I have used No. 7 on and off for years, and I would love to try out these creams. I could do with a bit of help to look a bit younger!

LaraGransnet (GNHQ) Fri 04-Oct-13 15:03:16

Hi nightowl
Regarding the queries about animal testing and their operations in China, a Boots UK Spokesperson would like to say the following:
“Thank you for your comment – we are disappointed that you feel this way. The issue of animal testing on products and raw materials is one we take very seriously at Boots UK. Let me reassure you that we do not sell any skincare, cosmetics, toiletries or healthcare products in China.
For over 20 years our policy for cosmetics and toiletries has been that we do not carry out, or ask our suppliers to carry out on our behalf, animal testing on either ingredients or finished products. We would like to see an end to all animal testing, and we fully support the development of the ban on further animal testing on ingredients within the most recent 2013 EU Cosmetic Regulation.”

would love to try this smile

psg1968 Fri 04-Oct-13 14:01:15

Hi have signed up to try as would love the chance to see if it has any effect on my fine lines smile

annodomini Thu 03-Oct-13 21:05:47

Oh Riverwalk, that is so touching!

Riverwalk Thu 03-Oct-13 20:35:40

caz I think you'll find that all Gransnetters look younger than their years and are all rather gorgeous. wink

cazthebookworm Thu 03-Oct-13 19:51:29

I have used No.7 products for most of my life and currently, their Protect and Perfect range, and their BB cream are in my bathroom. I am very lucky to often be complimented on looking much younger than I actually am in years, whether that is due to the products or to good genes, I have no idea, but I always feel very flattered (and grateful.)

Gally Thu 03-Oct-13 15:04:34

Jane grin

janerowena Thu 03-Oct-13 14:41:27

I sometimes think that only an acid bath would sort me out. Still, I live in hope eternal and it would be nice to be able to try something out long term and not just from a free sachet that sometimes doesn't even cover your face.

If I find that something doesn't work I then use it as a skin softener on my feet. grin

Hebs Thu 03-Oct-13 11:57:42

As there are no chemists or beauty shops here, where I can buy new products to try, I should like to take part so that if it works, and I'm sure it will, I can then buy on line.
