    Hi MSMOO,

    I use this No 7 facial suncream. It is quite good as it sinks in well & I find I don't need to re-apply it that often.
    It does leave my face quite shiny though, despite saying on the box it doesn't! ... (snip).

    I have the same problem, and have been using an old sample of Almay oil-blotting translucent powder to deal with it. I want something light and translucent and I was thinking of getting some no7; has anyone tried:

    No7 Perfect Light Portable Loose Powder -
    £11
    No7 Creme Touch - £8.25
    No7 Perfect Light Pressed Powder -
    £11
    No7 Perfect Light Loose Powder -
    £10

    Or any other recommendations? Even if they aren't No7, but come out as cheap or less than No7 after the £5 coupon?

    Edit: Ohh, I kept searching online, and saw Max Factor Cream Puff for £4.95 (and I have a £2 off coupon). Anyone tried this? And there's Rimmel Anti-shine for £3.69, plus some 17 powders. I'd appreciate any tips, and if there's something as good/better than No7, I may just wait to see what next month's offers are before I buy. :)

    a big thanks to Geordie_lass for the ACM memory card voucher. I will try and take the one I bought back and see if I can rebuy it and get the points. Or i might wimp out and send OH instead:rotfl:

    Hi everyone,

    I am a bit of a Boots thread lurker but rarely get time to post.
    But thanks to you all for helping to give my advantage card such a boost over the last few months!!

    I was just wondering if someone could tell me about the No7 voucher everyone is referring too - is it from .com? I am registered but haven't bought on there for over a year. Sorry, i have gone back for pages but can't find anything and it isn't in the first post?

    Also just to let you know i tried the Model Me Jamelia shampoo and serum today but the till beeped with the acm voucher! d'oh :o

    Thanks
