REVIEW: The New Botanics Skin Care Range From Boots!

I always love trying out new skin care products! Thankfully, I’ve been blessed with good skin – but I am always striving to bring you guys, my readers reviews on different products ranging from the expensive creams to the affordable ones! One range that is very affordable and DEFO gets the thumbs up from me is the new Botanics range which launched in Boots just this week!

Understanding that women want to be able to choose from truly natural products that contain proven ingredients, Boots has invested in three years of extensive research and development for the new range – ‘Botanics’ and what  range it is…

If you are looking for brighter, younger looking skin – then keel reading!

Developed in collaboration with The Royal Botanic Gardens, London the range combines passion, expertise and nature in luxurious, affordable skincare solutions, leaving beautiful and more radiant looking skin!! Boots have identified some of the most powerful plant extracts and have preserved their natural essence to develop skin care solutions that really work.

I have been using the following three products the past two and half weeks and I have to say, my skin is glowing! Affordable products coupled with noticeable results = I’ve become a big fan!!!

Lets get onto the review…

Mission Statement: “The Botanics Radiant Youth Skincare Range is bursting with natural antioxidants to help skin stay younger longer”.

So what products from the range did I try?

*********

1. Radiant Youth Super Serum! Key ingredient? Ginkgo extract

Price: €14.99

As one of nature’s most trusted protectors, the Radiant Youth Skincare Range uses high quality Ginkgo extract to boost skin protection and  innovative plant stem cell technology to enhance skin’s natural radiance and youthful glow. I use this every morning and  night (with the oil number 3. below) after I cleanse and before my moisturiser! It’s silky, hydrating and light on the skin. Love it.

2. All Bright Hydrating Day Cream SPF 15! Key Ingredient? Hibiscus

Rich in alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) from its flower, Hibiscus is nature’s brightness booster.  Combining  the mild exfoliating properties of Hibiscus and an extract of the red ‘calyx’ (the outer part of the hibiscus seed) within high performance formulations the All Bright Skincare Range works to, gently cleanse, revitalise and nourish to reveal smoother, brighter and more radiant looking skin. I use this every morning and night after using the serum above!

The Results:

I can definitely notice a difference in my skin. When I came home from Marbella two and half weeks ago, my skin was tired, dehydrated and dull. After using these three products morning and evening since, I can safely say that they work and I am really happy with the results! Go and try them out and tell me what you think!

Happy Glowing,
