Beauty fans don't have long to bag this offer.
If there's one celebrity whose perfumes we often turn to, then it's Britney Spears. With a staggering 47 scents in total, she has a bottle for everyone.
Although there is an abundance of options now available from the singer, one that has been hailed as a "go to" for many devoted fans is the Midnight Fantasy Eau de Parfum - and we know where to get it for less.
Right now, shoppers will be able to bag a 30ml bottle in Boots' £10 Tuesday deals that are available online, but only today, August 12. Usually retailing at £28, the flash-sale is offering a saving of £18 off the RRP.
A staple since it was launched in 2006, Midnight Fantasy is the evening edition of the Fantasy Eau de Parfum that has long reigned as one of the iconic pop-star's highest selling fragrances for the past 20 years.
As a fruity/amber based scent, this particular fragrance is said to offer a more "sophisticated" take on its beloved original counterpart, with notes of black cherry, plum, freesia, night orchid, iris, musk and vanilla.

Beauty enthusiasts who'd prefer to shop elsewhere might be keen to check out the Ghost Deep Night that also offers an "enchanting nocturnal scent", with Amazon offering a 75ml bottle for £39.50, down from £55.

Captain Tom's daughter unveils new book bid: Disgraced Hannah Ingram-Moore vows to pen 10 titles, including an autobiography, after being slated for 'money-grabbing memoir'

The disgraced daughter of the Covid hero Captain Tom has revealed plans to write 10 more books despite the backlash over her 'money-grabbing' memoir. Hannah Ingram-Moore, 54, is writing multiple wellness books, an autobiography and children's' works. But her £8.99 memoir, Grief: Public Face Private Loss, has flopped as it was reported to have sold only one copy a day. The text also only has a 2.8 out of 5 rating and currently sits at number 696,973 in the Amazon sales charts. However this hasn't stopped her from wanting to pen more titles. She stated on her website: 'I am currently working on over ten new titles, each shaped by different parts of my life and perspective; among them are: personal resilience, business resilience, business success, personal branding, reclaiming wellness, leadership and legacy-building, animal rescue and the dogs who've changed my life, children's books about kindness, empathy, and strength. 'And, when the time is right, my full autobiography. Each of these books is driven by the same desire: to tell the truth with grace, and to create space for others to do the same. 'I never set out to be an author, but as my journey unfolded, I realised the power of using my voice with intention and the importance of telling stories that truly matter. Mrs Ingram-Moore and her husband Colin, 68, have been embroiled in scandal when the charity watchdog found they had pocketed more than £1million in his name from links to the Captain Tom Foundation (pictured in TalkTV interview with Piers Morgan) 'Writing has become my refuge, a space for reflection, and a means to offer something enduring. I hope you discover something within these pages that resonates with you and perhaps even assists you in rediscovering your own voice, too.' Mrs Ingram-Moore and her husband Colin, 68, have been embroiled in scandal since Covid hero Captain Tom stole the hearts of the nation when he walked 100 laps of his garden to raise money for the NHS before marking his 100th birthday in 2020. Almost £39million was raised for NHS charities and he was knighted by the Queen in July 2020. Later that year his memoir, Tomorrow Will Be A Good Day, was published. He wrote in the prologue that it was 'a chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation now established in my name.' But following his death in 2021 the couple were condemned when the charity watchdog uncovered 'repeated failures of governance and integrity', and found they had pocketed more than £1million in his name from links to the Captain Tom Foundation. A critical report published by the Charity Commission in November last year found that the Ingram-Moores benefited 'significantly' through their association with the high-profile Captain Tom Foundation and were guilty of 'serious and repeated' instances of misconduct, mismanagement and failures of integrity - among them a book deal. The public had been 'misled', said the damning report, when buying items they thought would benefit the Captain Tom Foundation, which was set up in May 2020 to carry on raising money for charity after the success of his sponsored walk. The couple even put charity money into building an illegal spa in their garden, which was later ordered to be demolished. In January, they erased the walking veteran's name from the charity set up in his honour. Ms Ingram-Moore was also paid 'thousands of pounds' through her family company for appearances linked to her late father's charity, it was revealed last August. Earlier this year Mrs Ingram-Moore told the BBC she was sorry if the public felt misled. She said: 'I genuinely am. But there was never any attempt to mislead and if there was any misleading it wasn't our doing.' Mrs Ingram-Moore has been approached for comment. The 54-year-old has started doling out motivational advice on social media - but not everyone has been impressed with her attempted revamp. She has taken to TikTok in an apparent attempt to cleanse her image and rebrand herself, posting videos under the title 'Moore Moments'. In these she delivers bite-sized motivational talks and explains how she's had to rise above the criticism and challenges she's faced. In one of the videos, she said: 'It's Hannah with "Moore Moments". 'The last few years have tested me. The criticism, the judgement, the noise, but here is what I have learnt. 'Self-doubt gets louder when you're under pressure. Confidence that comes from keeping going quietly, consistently, even when people doubt you. 'You don't have to prove them wrong, you just have to believe in yourself and trust your truth.' But critics aren't buying with many taking to the comments section to take aim at her, with one saying: 'You've absolutely no shame!!!' Another one said: 'What are you doing, no one likes you'

Boots announces two beauty advent calendars for 2025 – and the waitlists are open now

Even with the rise of dedicated shops like Sephora and Lookfantastic, every beauty obsessive has trodden the hallowed halls of the beauty aisles at Boots. Despite stiff competition, it remains a key retailer, and Boots' beauty advent calendars are no exception. That's right: this year, the high-street retailer has launched not one, but two Christmas countdowns: the 24 beauty stars luxury advent calendar (£150, and the 24 days of skin advent calendar (£70, There are already more than 15 beauty advent calendars on offer, and it's only August. While Boots is keeping some of the magic of Christmas alive with just a sneak peek at these new 24-day bundles, I can spy a few clues of what's to come. I predict Korean skincare, luxury Drunk Elephant moisturisers and more. Boots usually takes a more affordable approach to beauty advent calendars and, while high-end department stores like Liberty and Selfridges charge more than £250, Boots' 2025 calendar keeps things more accessibly aspirational with options at £70 and £150. Scroll on for everything I know so far, including full worth, a first look at the contents and how to join the waitlist. Boots 24 beauty stars luxury advent calendar: £150, The beauty stars calendar is Boots' main advent offering, with a whopping £600+ worth. The retailer is keeping the full 24 days secret for now, but after peering at the press shot, I've spied some gems. Included are Drunk Elephant's protini polypeptide cream (£21, Sol de Janeiro's 76 perfume mist (£24, the Laneige lip glowy balm (£17.50, and Iconic London's get cheeky face powder palette (£35, Interestingly, skincare obsessives will get their very own advent. If you have a penchant for fresh skin and make-up-free days, then you'll find what you're looking for in Boots' 24 days of skin offering. Again, the worth of this calendar exceeds four times the amount you'll pay and, in addition to the products above, I've spotted Round Lab's birch juice sunscreen (£18.90, and Anua's PDRN hyaluronic acid capsule serum (£18, as well as some impressive Korean skincare heroes.

Covid hero Capt Sir Tom Moore's daughter reveals plans to write TEN more books

Hannah Ingram-Moore, 54 - who faced criticism for her handling of Capt Sir Tom Moore's legacy - is writing a slew of wellness and business books, plus her autobiography and kids' works The daughter of Captain Sir Tom Moore is set to release another 10 books despite being criticised over her handling of the hero's legacy. ‌ Fallen fundraiser Hannah Ingram-Moore, 54, is writing a slew of wellness and business books, plus her autobiography and kids' works. She has just penned the £8.99 tome Grief: Public Face Private Loss. It is described as a 'compassionate guide to ease loneliness, address the fear of lost memories, navigate emotions, and honour loved ones with insights from my personal journey'. ‌ But sales have been sluggish and it currently sits at number 696,973 in the Amazon sales charts and has a 2.8 out of 5 rating. However, she is undeterred about putting pen to paper again and reveals on her website: 'I am currently working on over ten new titles, each shaped by different parts of my life and perspective; among them are: personal resilience, business resilience, business success, personal branding, reclaiming wellness, leadership and legacy-building, animal rescue and the dogs who've changed my life, children's books about kindness, empathy, and strength ‌ 'And, when the time is right, my full autobiography. Each of these books is driven by the same desire: to tell the truth with grace, and to create space for others to do the same. I never set out to be an author, but as my journey unfolded, I realised the power of using my voice with intention and the importance of telling stories that truly matter. 'Writing has become my refuge, a space for reflection, and a means to offer something enduring. I hope you discover something within these pages that resonates with you and perhaps even assists you in rediscovering your own voice, too.' Mrs Ingram Moore sparked controversy after she and husband Colin pocketed cash from a previous book deal – giving none to Capt Tom's good cause. A damning Charity Commission report last November found it was among moves by the Ingram-Moores to cash in on the fame of Capt Tom, who died in 2021. ‌ The couple were also ordered to demolish a luxury spa that had been built in the grounds of their home in Marston Moretaine, Beds., using the Captain Tom Foundation charity name. Capt Tom – knighted before his death - raised nearly £39 million for NHS charities by completing 100 lockdown laps of the family's garden using a walking aid. Publishers Penguin then agreed to pay a £1.4 million advance to the Ingram-Moore's private company for Captain Tom's memoir on the understanding a contribution would be made to charity. In the prologue to Tomorrow Will Be a Good Day, Capt Tom – who died aged 100 – wrote: 'I have also been given the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation established in my name.' Mrs Ingram-Moore later defended the decision to keep profits from his books, which also included Life Lessons and One Hundred Steps. Most of the money from them went into the family company, Club Nook. Earlier this year Mrs Ingram-Moore told the BBC she was sorry if the public felt misled. She said: "I genuinely am. But there was never any attempt to mislead and if there was any misleading it wasn't our doing."
