Wondering what goodies you'll uncover?
At just £30, shoppers are spoiled with nine skincare delights, six being full-sized offerings from esteemed brands including Beauty of Joseon, BYOMA, Pixi, The Inkey List, Cetaphil amongst others, as reported by Nottinghamshire Live. Valued at a staggering £113, here's a glimpse of what awaits in the kit:.
Beauty enthusiasts will be thrilled with the current offer on LUMENE Nordic-C Valo Glow Boost Essence at Boots. Usually retailing at £36.50 for a 30ml bottle, this essence has garnered a loyal following among shoppers.
The product has received over 200 positive reviews, with users noting that it "smells fresh and light on the skin" and "it leaves skin glowing and ready to take on the day". One satisfied customer remarked: "Since using Lumene products I have had so many compliments on how healthy my skin looks. I use this serum daily."
However, those with sensitive skin should approach with caution as there have been reports of adverse reactions and breakouts. A reviewer mentioned that they "haven't noticed any improvements" even after a month's use of the serum.
Another sought-after product is the Pixi Vitamin-C Serum, which promises to "provide a boost of immediate and long-term radiance" and help "reduce the effects of sun damage". Users have found it "goes on easily" and is kind to sensitive skin, although some have said "it made zero difference" based on their personal experience.
Also featured in the beauty selection is the BYOMA Brightening Serum, hailed by customers as "seriously hydrating". One user shared their positive outcome: "Makes my skin feel hydrated and look more glowy and healthy. Boyfriend said my skin was noticeably brighter after just a couple of uses so definitely recommend!".

Viral 'super' serum that 'blurs wrinkles' cut to lowest ever price on Amazon
This powerhouse serum was once dubbed 'the cult beauty product of 2024.' The world of skincare is bigger than ever these days. Whether it be wrinkles, pigmentation or anti-ageing, we all have the areas we'd like to target more than others. Looking to target multiple in one go? Then enter the Olay Super Serum, the first of its kind, as it offers five different skincare benefits in just one bottle - and it's at its cheapest ever price on Amazon. The beauty brand's "miracle" serum first made waves when it debuted in the USA in 2023. After officially going available in the UK last year, it quickly earned the title as "the cult beauty product of 2024." While it's certainly popular, it can be quite pricey at £39.99 for a small 30ml bottle. Fortunately, Amazon has knocked 55 percent off the price, taking it to just £18.14, the cheapest it has ever been available to buy for. Not only is this the cheapest price we have spotted Amazon selling it for, as it's currently the lowest price on the entire high street, with Boots and Superdrug stocking it at full-price, while Ocado has it for £20. A unique addition to the skincare market, this powerhouse serum has been infused with the five ingredients - niacinamide, vitamin C, collagen peptides, vitamin E and AHA lactic acid. This means that it provides five benefits in just one bottle that include brightening, firming, toning, hydrating and much more. Considering it's the only serum on the market to do so, it's understandable why it's still hugely popular. It boasts a colour-changing soft purple iridescence, providing the skin with that 'barely-there' natural radiance. It's so popular that the brand claims that it "quickly became a viral sensation, with one bottle sold every minute." While no other option on the market offers as many benefits in one bottle, the popular L'Oréal Paris Age Perfect Serum Le Duo (30ml), £37.99 at Boots, harnesses the power of two serums to target firmness, wrinkles and radiance. Meanwhile, celebrity-backed brand Medik8 has just launched its brand new C-Tetra Advanced (30ml), a brightening and anti-ageing serum that boasts vitamin C, vitamin E and hyaluronic acid for £69. Skincare enthusiasts will be all too aware of the reputation the Olay Super Serum has managed to garner over the past year, as it has earned a 4.4 rating from users who say it is a "minor miracle" and that it works "like magic".

I started using it after a summer break in the sun. My skin feels hydrated and the wrinkles appear blurred. It seems to have helped reduce sun spots too." A second skincare buff wrote: "Feels great on my skin. Easily absorbed. My skin looks fresher and evenly toned. Lines appear smoother too. Will buy again." Beauty deal of the week It's almost Father's Day, and are you in need of some gift inspiration? If you don't want to buy a last minute gift, then we have you covered, as a bottle of aftershave is always a good shout and Debenhams has just cut the Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Eau De Toilette from £92 to just £55.20 for a large 100ml bottle. There is also a smaller 60ml bottle that is a bit cheaper, with the price being reduced by 37 per cent from £68 to £43. Since reviews say it "stands out from the crowd", it's a deal worth bagging for dad. Launched in 2006, this YSL fragrance has been described as "a fragrance for the urban and charismatic 21st century male". For the guy in your life who likes to smell a little different, then this is the bottle to reach for. It opens on sparkling notes of bergamot, zesty cedarwood and Chinese ginger that has been met with the middle notes of violet leaves and basil flowers, offering a floral and spicy contrast. It is said to end on base notes of sandalwood, Virginia cedar wood and Haitian vetiver to "highlight this charismatic and magnetic fragrance." Those who want to stand out from the crowd will appreciate the YSL L'Homme Eau De Toilette, as it has earned a 4.7 rating from Debenhams fragrance buffs who have said it is "unusual" and "always gets compliments." One positive review read: "An unusual and outstanding men's perfume! What an interesting fresh yet a hint of spice men's perfume! It's different. Stands out from the crowd. Purchase the Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Eau De Toilette (100ml) in the Debenhams sale here. Someone else praised: "What a wonderful product! Olay have [created] a minor miracle with this serum. My skin feels amazing after using this as you don't need to use too much either as so good." Not everyone found it worked for their skin, as one three-star review read: "I didn't really like this serum as I felt it left my skin feeling quite dry, not what I expected it to do." Although, another positive review read: "This stuff is like magic. It makes your skin so soft! I'm not a girly girl, I don't use tons of make up, I'm not incredibly interested in skin care - but ONE experience with this stuff and I'm never living without it. It instantly absorbs and makes you feel at your best. I've even had compliments when wearing it. Id recommend this to everyone!"

My hair was so thin I had to wear wigs, but thanks to a £9 shampoo, my locks have grown thick and long
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A BUDGET-FRIENDLY buy can help to transform your locks, leaving them looking thicker than ever. This haircare product will nourish your roots, boosting growth and promoting a natural moisture balance. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A Boots shopper heaped on the praise for a budget-friendly shampoo that transformed her locks (stock image) Credit: Getty One woman revealed the shampoo she used to level up her locks, calling it "the best". "I have a hair condition, which means I wore wigs," she explained. "Since using this shampoo, my hair grew so well and quite quick and now I don't use wigs anymore, couldn't be more happier." She added that she is "really happy with this shampoo". Boots shoppers can pick up the product, a 300ml bottle of Nature Spell Growth Complex Shampoo, for just £8.49. It is described as "a harmonious blend of Ayurvedic wisdom and modern hair care innovation". This product is designed to nurture your hair into "longer, stronger, and healthier" locks. Nature Spell infused the mixture with potent Ayurvedic herbs including Ashwagandha, Bhringraj, and Amla. According to the brand, the shampoo "not only helps stimulate healthy hair growth but also fortifies your hair from root to tip". The unique formulation is enriched with our exclusive root-growth complex that works to rejuvenate and strengthen hair. I'm a beauty fan but save money in Boots by switching to six bargain buys - the 75p shampoo and conditioner is a must With a sulphate-free formula, this product ensures your hair retains its natural moisture balance, promoting healthier, shinier, and more resilient strands. Manufacturers recommend applying a generous amount of the product to wet hair. Massage it into your scalp and through the lengths of your hair to create a rich lather. Rinse thoroughly and for best results, follow up with Nature Spell's conditioner to lock in moisture and nutrients. The shampoo is suitable for all hair types. Hair re-growth FAQs Anabel Kingsley, Consultant Trichologist and Brand President at Philip Kingsley spoke exclusively to Fabulous. How long does it take for hair to grow back? Hair grows, on average, half an inch a month. You cannot speed this up. Do rosemary oil and scalp massages work? Oils do not promote hair growth. In terms of rosemary oil, the current trend stems from one small study carried out on 50 men in 2015. No women were involved, and the study compared the effects of 2 per cent minoxidil to Rosemary oil. 2 per cent minoxidil doesn't do much for male pattern hair loss anyway, so the results were not very impressive. Oils do serve a purpose in conditioning hair treatments though. They help add shine and smooth the hair cuticle to lock-in moisture and improve combability. Scalp massages alone won't cure hair loss, but it can help relax you, aid in lymphatic drainage, exfoliate and help topicals penetrate. Are there any products or foods/vitamins you recommend someone using or eating to help with hair regrowth? To support healthy hair regrowth, if you are experiencing hair thinning we'd recommend our Density Preserving Scalp Drops clinically proven to help slow hair loss with continued daily use within three months. Telogen effluvium (hair shedding) due to nutritional deficiencies can often be simply treated with changes to your diet, and nutritional supplements such as our specially formulated Density Healthy Hair Complex and Density Amino Acid Booster. Iron and Ferritin (stored iron) in red meat, dried apricots and dark, leafy greens. Vitamin B12 in animal products and fortified plant-based foods. Protein from oily fish, lean meat, cottage cheese, tofu, nuts, chickpeas, and beans. However, there may be an underlying cause for their hair loss and rather than this being masked by using an off-the-shelf product, they should be encouraged to seek the advice of a specialist such as a Trichologist. Other customers shared their experiences with the product in the Boots review section. "I like it, [it has] pleasant, non-chemical scent, does not strip hair nor make it greasy," wrote one shopper. "This shampoo is the best I've ever used. My hairline has changed for the better! It's also probably the cheapest I've used. Great product!" said another buyer. "I was delighted to find this in Boots at a very reasonable price so bought the shampoo and conditioner. Smells lovely, lathers well, I will definitely buy this again," commented a third person. "Great shampoo, very good [for] sensitive scalps, leaves hair clean and healthy-feeling without weighing it down," said another Boots customer.
