Boots No7 feedback thread – win a No7 skincare hamper worth £100 NOW CLOSED

As requested here is my last feedback review for No7 restore and renew serum...and I have to say that I still have some serum left in both tubes which has surprised and impressed me!
I have noticed that on one occasion I forgot to use the night serum and my skin was noticeably drier the following morning (and no I hadn't had one too many G&Ts the night before...if only!).
The daytime serum has helped to even out my skin tone and provided a good base for foundation.
All in all I have been impressed by the product and would recommend it to friends, but I will probably save up my Boots points to buy it with as I wouldn't normally spend this much on a face cream product.
It has been fun to be involved in the trial and has given my skin 8 weeks of pampering so thankyou!

A little more time and a little more usage and - do you know - I think I can see a little more effect!! Especially when I forget to use it, like the other morning, and it had a tight and dry feeling to my skin. I have also noticed a more even tone to my skin colour. It has been so good to have the opportunity to use this product - which I have to say, is still going strong - that I might even buy some whenever it runs out!!! Thank you.

Following on from my post on 20 nov I still have some serum left perhaps I did not use enough at the beginning.I am delighted with the results and will now be using this serum instead of my more expensive Elizabeth grant skin care I am also considering buying no 7 day and night cream to compliment the serum thank you again boots for introducing it to me

As an update to my full post on Nov 28th I have now finished both tubes.
My skin does feel better and firmer and I have definately benefited from taking part in the trial.
I will carry on using the product as long as vouchers and gifts from friends and family continue.
Thank you and Best Wishes to you and the other 99 participants !

My overall impressions are that my skin is both softer to feel in the sense it is moister, and firmer (an apparent contradiction?). It is rather fresher looking. Also I have found that I can now use a day and night cream to improve my skin, even though it's oily in places. This was a surprise as other creams have brought me out in spots.

I'm not sure that the wrinkles are any less. After all I am getting older (67) but they are certainly no worse. Yes, surprisingly again as I didn't really believe in skin creams, my skin does appear to have a definite glow now!

I can't honestly say that I know what is meant by "fragility" relating to my skin. It seems pretty tough. Recently I have found myself resting my head in my hands while I'm asleep and last week found two patches on my nose where my nails had made the skin bleed. All signs have now disappeared and healed over completely while I've been using the serums.

Pigmentation is definitely improved if by this is meant a more even skin tone.

I think the price is a little high for 8 weeks but then the results seem to justify it. I did not expect the tubes to last this long. So yes, I will continue to use it and would gladly recommend it to friends.

Thank you for the opportunity to try it.

As posted in my last review, I really enjoyed using the serums and hope there will be many special offers so I can buy some, or win the prize!

My skin certainly felt moisturised when I used them

I have put an order in for some for Christmas and I evidently look improved enough for a fried to have bought some to try. It's a lot to pay for two small tubes so beyond that I will rely on Boots points. I took the hint about a pea size blob, but one pea sized blob is not enough. Probably my neck has benefitted most from the night serum, being smoother and softer (according to my DGS. My skin tone is more even and the tinted moisturiser I use seems much more even and natural. Thanks Boots.

A little extra time and a little extra usage and - guess what - I have noticed a little extra quality to the tone and smoothness of my skin; I've especially noticed this when I have forgotten to use the serum, like I did the other morning and my face felt tight and rough. I've still got some left - so it has been very economical - so I may just buy some when it runs out! Thanks for the opportunity to trial this product - I'd certainly recommend it.

I have now finished the serum, it lasted just over 7 weeks. I found it very pleasant to use and together with my No 7 moisturiser my skin felt less dry and firmer. I have noticed an improvement in the pigmentation and the deeper lines. Overall I am pleased with the results and I think my skin looks fresher and healthier. I will use my Boots points to continue using the serum. Thank you for the opportunity to test this product.

I'm sorry i've finished the serums. I'm delighted to have had the opportunity to try them - I have sensitive skin and have had no adverse reactions. My neck was definitely better and my face was slightly clearer and brighter. Will buy them and try the rest of the range when they're on offer, a bit expensive to buy regularly. Would recommend the serums to others.

I enjoyed taking part in this trial. The serum glides on very smoothly and makes the skin feel silky smooth and hydrated. I think my skin glowed more and certainly felt fresher. I would recommend it but I think that for someone on a pension, it is quite expensive. I would also like to try it for longer. Really glad I had the opportunity though. Thank you!

I have found that using serum means I need to use less moisturiser and foundation so there could be a cost saving there that makes the serum good value.

I'd love to know what size pea those whose serums lasted 8 weeks used!
Mine lasted about 5 weeks and I'm missing it now its finished. My skin looked somehow fresher and clearer when I was using it. I would buy more on a 3 for the price of 2 offer and hope that will coincide with the next time that I'm in the UK

Coincidentally, I just sliced open my day cream tube to use the last bit.

Overall I am very happy with the product and the effect it has on my skin. Not having been much of a serum user before, I shall be buying it on a regular basis, I'd recommend to others. Thank you for the opportunity to test this product.

I too sliced open the tube and scooped the remains out with the end of my toothbrush, I will certainly now buy some more, life is not the same without it. So used to using No7 serum every night and morning. Off to Boots tomorrow.

A definite improvement in the fine lines.

I have been using about 3/4 inch strip into my palm and then onto the parts of my face that needed it - and I still have some left. No point in putting it on nose, chin and I always avoid eye area anyway.

I found that it spread very nicely which made it easy and pleasant to use.

What would have been nice was instructions on exactly how much to use and exactly how to put it on, spread or massage etc. Would this have made a difference I wonder. Would I now be looking 60 instead of 70 if I had been more extravagant? Or is using less for longer better?

Thank you Boots anyway, I'm putting it on my birthday list for next year. Not Christmas, too late for that.

Amazingly I still have some left in both tubes so maybe haven't been using enough. I have enjoyed having this serum to use and I do think my skin feels softer and looks brighter. However I've also been trying to have a bit of a detox and diet before Christmas so maybe that has had an effect too! I don't really think there's so much of a difference to buy more but maybe if I notice it on offer…….
Thank you anyway for including me in the offer.

Sorry - didn't mean to use the word offer twice!

I have really enjoyed testing this serum and am sorry that it hasn't lasted longer. I wonder if I have a large face! There is no way that I could have made it last more than 5 weeks or so, but I shall definitely try cutting the tubes open to extract every possible drop. Perhaps I have used too much each time, as I have included the eye area and nose and the front half of my neck! I feel that there is an improvement in the texture of my skin, which I notice more when I am made up - my face appears smoother and more evenly textured. I shall miss this serum when it finally runs out - I hope to buy more when I am next in the UK (I usually have a few indulgences when I am there, and this can be one of them!). Thank you to Gransnet and to Boots for selecting me to test this item.

I still have some of the night serum left. Daytime one went a couple of weeks ago.

It feels 'wrong' now putting my usual face cream straight on to my face without a layer of serum. It did glide smoothly on with the serum, now seems to need more rubbing in.

Might invest in another lot of N 7 Serum but I don't really need both day and night versions. I wish it was sold separately.

I finished the two tubes about two weeks ago, they didn't last the full eight weeks and I was careful not to use too much, as recommended. I didn't notice any significant change to my face, though my neck looked more "nourished" and less wrinkly. My foundation seemed to go on more smoothly, or perhaps I was taking more trouble overall. I think just under £25 is expensive every five to six weeks, and I couldn't justify buying it myself. I do use the No 7 products for mature skin daily, but I wouldn't recommend spending out on the serum.
Thank you for giving me the chance to try out this serum, which seemed to find many fans on Gransnet!

My samples did not last for the eight weeks and although I liked the product I could not afford to use it on a regular basis.

By cutting open the tubes and decanting what was left into travel pots, as I always do with everything now, I managed to get them to last the full time. I can't see any real improvement in the problem areas they were supposed to target, but the texture was good and I continue to live in hope.

Well, I just have a little left in both tubes and have really enjoyed the chance to try the serum out. It definitely made a difference at the beginning as my skin faded after a summer of being outdoors. Normally my skin colour is patchy in the autumn but I didn't notice that at all this year. Fine lines and the little furrows above the bridge of my nose are less obvious and it does make my skin feel so much softer - especially first thing in the morning. I don't know how much improvement was due to the serum and how much to the regular use of skincare - I do tend to be rather casual about the use of moisturisers. The price will stop me rushing out to buy some more but I would consider it at something under £20.

After not expecting the serums to last for 8 weeks I am surprised that the day one finished a few days ago even after cutting the top off & getting out the last drops but I still have some of the night one left which is strange as I would have expected them to have lasted the same length of time. I am glad to have had the chance to try them but they are too expensive to use on a regular basis for me anyway. My neck is definitely better, not as crepey and pores on my face seem to have closed up a bit. Not much change to wrinkles, but I didn't expect any improvement there. Would recommend the serums to others who can afford them.
Thank you Boots for giving me the chance to try them anyway.
