I have added my name and will keep my fingers crossed. I wonder if they are going to extend the age range or keep within a narrow age margin. Time will tell.

I'm a fan of No. 7 too. I use their Protect and Perfect and Life and Illuminate products. I love their BB cream and Primer. Their mascara is brilliant.

I too am a fan of the No7 serums and hope I have less lines....! Its good value and I no longer use Clarins which I found very expensive and no better.

I have used various No7 products for a few years and they have always suited my skin,some brands seem to make my skin feeling far to tight and uncomfortable but No7 has always seemed more sensitive to my skin type.

I've been using Protect and Perfect serum for ages [ever since finding that it was a good base for foundation]. Haven't used the new Day and Night serum, though. Started using a lot of No7 products when I could no longer buy Almay.

I have tried No.7 products before and like the texture of the serum - very soothing - not sure if it improved my wrinkles but it certainly made my skin feel softer - perhaps it was psychological wink but anything that helps at this stage of life and possibly contains a magic ingredient, can only be a bonus! It is quite expensive compared to some creams and potions but on the upside, the tubes are very lightweight which is good when travelling which I do often. Why do most skin care products come in heavy 'china' type pots - ok if you aren't going anywhere but useless when restricted on weight?

I always go back to this, just to see. Every time, after a week of use the renew and restore products bring me out in spots. Every time. Think I've learnt my lesson now.

Boots' animal testing policy is vague and evasive. They do not state clearly whether the ingredients they use are tested on animals. In addition, I understand that Boots have big plans to increase their operations in China. I am aware that any cosmetics sold in China must by law be tested on animals, even when they are not tested in their country of origin. It is not clear whether Boots sell cosmetic products in China but I prefer to use products from companies that are transparent about their policies and certified cruelty free.

Only recently*anno*? I have already volunteered and have my fingers firmly crossed,but as they ask for your age I am not holding my breath.

I seem to have acquired a few more lines recently. I wonder if this product would help me to turn back the clock. I'll volunteer to take part!

I have tried this before and thought it was very good. Just expensive to keep buying. I have very dry skin and always felt the need to put a lot of it on. When I did my skin felt great.

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
