So Boots have recently come out with a new range of skincare, called the Glow range. I wanted to try this out the second it was put on the website so I made an order. Obviously due to the circumstances in the world at the moment, it took a little longer for the order to arrive. But it did arrive this week, and I've been so excited to try the products and to write this blog post all about them! Every product in this post cost only £4 each, which is amazing for people on a budget. Me being the idiot I am, I completely forgot to order the tonic, and I deliberately didn't order the oil as I have oily skin anyway, so these are 6 of the 8 products available in the new range.
This cream is said to be a 'lightweight cream that hydrates, brightens and smooths skin giving a glowing complexion, to prep skin.'
This cream is lovely on the skin. I would definitely recommend using it at night rather than in the morning as it is quite thick and left a little bit of residue on my skin, which I removed when I washed my face in the morning. It was incredibly moisturising, made my skin feel amazing and definitely gave it the glow it said it would.
This eye cream 'refreshes and rehydrates, whilst also soothing skin around the eyes for a more revitalised, brighter look.'
This is a lovely eye cream, really hydrating and sinks into the skin so quickly and effectively. However, I wouldn't say it was one of the best eye creams I've ever used. I usually use the No7 eye cream or the Soap & Glory Puffy-Eye Attack eye gel, and I would still favour those over this one. It's not a bad cream by any means, but I didn't find it to make much of a difference to under my eyes like the others have. I will continue to use it and see if my opinion changes on it.
This gel mask 'works intensely to moisturise, giving you brighter and more radiant looking skin.'
Both myself and Lee tried this out the other day and we both absolutely loved it. The gel was cooling and soothing on the skin and left my skin feeling so cleansed and soft afterwards. We left the mask on for 15 minutes and then washed it off and I did the rest of my skincare routine. This mask can be used 2-3 times a week so is good for more frequent cleansing.
This essence is said to 'energise, hydrate and refresh skin, to leave skin looking brighter and feeling plumped with moisture.'
Firstly, this smells AMAZING. I've been using this every morning and every night and it has made my skin feel so good and so soft. It's amazing to use before makeup as it leaves such a pretty glow on the skin. It also leaves your skin slightly tacky too, which is great for when applying makeup as it makes it grip well. I am definitely going to be ordering more of these for backups for when this one runs out! This is definitely my favourite product out of all the ones I purchased.
The cleansing stick 'melts away make-up and nourishes and hydrates skin to give a healthy looking glow.'
I used this the other day to remove my makeup after a day at work. I had a significant amount of makeup on, including eyeshadow, waterproof mascara and high coverage concealer. I rubbed this cleansing stick all over my face and it melted away all my makeup instantly, then I added a little water and rubbed it in to my skin, and then removed with my Face Halo. After I was finished with the stick, I just wiped it over with a cotton pad to make sure there was no make-up left on it. The only negative I have about this is it was very, very waxy and I found it hard to remove with just water as I felt this didn't mix well with water, so I had to wash my face with a face wash to remove all the residue properly. Other than that, it does exactly what it says it does.
This brightening 'microfine mist refreshes and brightens skin tone, leaving it feeling hydrated and looking radiant.'
I've only just began getting into sprays like setting sprays and I am absolutely loving this. I only use this at night as I have a separate spray I like using in the morning for setting my makeup. I do my whole skincare routine at night and then use this spray lastly to give my skin one last spritz of hydration before going to bed. It leaves my skin feeling intensely hydrated and gives a lovely glow to the skin.
Will you be trying this range out? What's your favourite product(s) from the new range?
Thank you for reading!
