    I taped the program and just checked and it was No7 Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum.Has anyone been to Boots and actually found this in stock?


    Yes, I got my three bottles of it today at Silverlink Retail Park, North Tyneside. Mind you, it was the last three bottles (3 for 2 offer).

    The Boots in my town have totally sold out of the Protect and Perfect serum.
    Just goes to show the power of advertising. I remeber watching a guy on breakfast T.V. singing the virtues of taking liquid cod liver oil in a dash of milk. When I went to the health food shop the next day the lady behind the counter wondered what she had missed. Every bottle was sold within 45 minutes of opening.

    I didn't see this programme but wish I had. I also use rosehip oil plus a host of other natural moisturisers from my own website. You don't have to fight wrinkles with chemicals! Read your ingredients list please.

    Did not see the prog but I don't understand why you seem to be suggesting that the prog referred to the ones that you refer to

    "I am sticking with my beloved Rosehip Oil why its full of natural Vitamin C and Tretinoin ,Beta Carotene Tannins and GLA's costs £10 for 100ml around 6 months true moneysaving! Vitrual zero side effects!. Why because there is lots of scientific research to back up this natural products effectiveness! Whole point of the whole Horizon programme!"

    Where is the scientific research for these products that you mention?

    Hi shokadelika i have just taken your tip and have brought some. I want it for the fine lines around my eyes in particular. I hope it works but i love the sound of it. I am using an expensive one at the moment and it has helped but its £30 a time which is a lot of money. Although it lasts a long time. Clarins....advanced extra firming eye contour cream...

    I watched the Horizon prog and had every intention of buying the boots no7 serum,but when i checked the ingredients it is loaded with chemicals such as parabens which is bad for the skin as it strips its natural oils and ages the skin.Type parabens and some of the other ingredients in this serum into google and it will give you all the info you need.I have thrown out all my skincare with chemicals in them.
