    Hi, what does this olook like - I couldn't find any in Boots today or online?

    It doesn't seem to be online but it's this:

    It's really nice! £5.86 a bottle and works with the skinny.

    Iv used this before and its really good, still leaves you £13.59 to pay but its a really good serum! You use it before your moisturiser for an added boost, makes your skin soooo soft also! I use a Clinique serum now but I might get this one again seeing as I would be paying less than half what the clinique one is!

    This is also a really good eye cream!

    This one is new too! Good if you dont like wipes to take your make up off and your looking for something cheap!

    I might give the eye cream a go.. does it really work? I bought the Eyliplex-2 eye cream about 3 weeks ago and it hasn't worked at all :mad: I can't even apply concealer/foundation over it because it peels off like dead skin!

    What a waste of £30! Do you reckon boots would take it back?

    Oh, the Olay eye cream is cheaper at superdrug - 10.63 :D

    and so is the Olay serum - 12.59

  • I wondered are any of the eye creams you can use the £5 voucher on good for dark circles?
    I read the time delay eye products and some of the others, some mentioned dark circles but amongst many other functions such as 'tightening', 'erasing' lines and wrinkles and generally giving you the eye area of a 12 yr old (yeah right).

    I'm only 24 so don't really need one that does all of that, but I do have quite bad dark circles. I was thinking of trying the Benefit eye con cream, which is supposed to lighten dark circles with daily use, and a colleague recommended it to me but it's £21.50 for a teeny pot: http://www.boots.com/en/Benefit-Eyecon-14g_15392/
    So if anyone knows of a cheaper one (ideally one that works) I'd be very grateful!
  • I've got a skinnie voucher to use, if I want another, does my first purchase have to be £10 or over? I want an eye cream, but that'll be only £1.84 I think so won't get me another voucher?

    sorry, I'm still new at this.
    also, what brands do you have to buy to get a voucher? is it just the ones listed on the voucher I have, or will no.7 do?

    To use your skinnie you can buy anything from the list on it! But in order to get another skinnie your purchase needs to be over £5. So paying your £1.84 wont get you one unless you spend another £3.16 in the same transaction!

    I used to use that one! You do actually get alot in the pot! And you only use a little drop!
    Im only 25 and I have dark circles but I think thats with having 2 kids and not enough sleep haha! I now use Clinique repairwear eyecream, and its amazing!!! I have a 13 week old baby who needs fed every 3 hours even during the night! Im up at midnight, 3am and then again at 6am and thats him up untill about 10am and you could never tell with this!!! Honestly its amazing!!! I had small wrinkles at the sides of my eyes also as Im a sunbed addict (yes I know its wrong lol) and they have cleared right up too!
