No 7 intelligent balance mousse!!!

asquiths_2

Ok i finally found a foundation that covered well and didn't give me spots. Now i'm running pretty low i've been into a few boots stores to get more and they have told me no 7 have stopped doing the foundation!!! argh!!:mad:! why do companies do this??

I've looked on ebay and theres only a few advertised the rrp at boots was 11.50 but they are charging 29.99 on ebay:eek:!! what a rip off!! Any ideas where i might pick some up nearer to the original price? or reccommend a product similar?

thanks

Have you tried maybelline's dream matte mousse?It comes in both a foundation and concealer,and is always a staple for me.It retails at around £8 and is such good value

Hi,

Your post worried me as this foundation is the only one I will use as it is the best for my skin too. I just checked Boots Website and it is still on there, i would try ordering it online. I hope it is still available!!

update - i tried to order some and it is out of stock, oh no! I used Loreal's Matte Morphose a couple of weeks ago as I had a free sample. It was ok for my skin but did not give such good coverage as the Boots one. If I find anywhere that is selling the Boots foundation I will let you know.

Hi,

I just went to Boots to find out what the replacement is for the intelligence balance - it is called Beautiful Matte. Some of the reviews I have read on the Boots website said that the coverage is good but the colours can be a bit orangey. I asked the guy in Boots, he said to go two shades lighter than you normally would in the Intelligence Balance. He gave me a free sample of the Beautiful Matte, I will try it and let you know!!

My local boots store gave me the same product to sample so...........
I did and arghhhhhhhh now got a face full of spots!!!! not impressed!!!:mad:
It felt heavy on my skin and i knew within a few hours what was going to happen.

Back to searching for the mousse for me

BTW the assistant in boots told me to check extras stores as they usually buy the boots discontinued stock. xx

Check out Maybelline products (they do a mouse which is excellent) easily available and very often on offer:)

Hi - I can't help with where to purchase but I do have an unused tube - shade Medium - that I can send to you if you like.
(For some reason, I still "get away" with a tinted moisturiser...)
Let me know.

Just spent 40 quid on two jars of blonde from the states. yes double the price but in my opinion worth it!! on an e-bay shop (can't post link as I am a new member but it will come up on a search!

Also stuffbackhome.com (UK based) has tan and almond available at 19.11

Still gutted about boots sudden discontinuation and wondering where all there backstock may have been sold to!!
