Boots discount codes for June 2025 – how to get 10% off
Boots is a British shopping institution and, when it comes to finding the best and latest beauty, it's one of the first places I look. Whether I've run out of foundation or my hair dryer 's conked out, the retailer is always there – online and in-store – to save the day.
Something that's easy to forget as you browse the backlit beauty counters is how many deals are constantly at your fingertips across skincare, make-up and more. Think exclusive discounts for students and advantage card holders, plus up to half price off fragrance.
As a beauty writer, I'm constantly reviewing the latest trending products, like lip stains and microcurrent tools, which means my days are spent crawling the pages of the big retailers like Boots. While you crack on with the daily grind, you can rest assured I'm holding down the deals fort and securing you the best beauty discounts as they roll in.
How to save with Boots offer codes
Right now, there are heaps of ways to save at Boots, including 10 per cent off selected own-brand beauty for Advantage Card holders and up to half price discounts in the Boots sale.
Students can maximise on their own 10 per cent reduction across thousands of products when they sign up to an Advantage Card. Plus, all card holders can shop with Boots' price advantage promotion that sees huge markdowns (up to £170, right now) on brands including Simple, Oral-B and Weleda.
How to use Boots points
With a Boots Advantage Card (which is free to sign up for) you can earn in-store points that contribute towards your next purchase. In-store, you'll simply need to hand over your advantage card, either a physical or a digital barcode, to the cashier and ask them to pay in points. Online customers can link their advantage card to their Boots account and then select 'pay with points' at checkout.
FYI, you'll need to have earned enough points to cover your entire purchase. Why can you part pay with Boots points? Unfortunately, that's just the way things are, but the retailer does stock products at a variety of price points, even as little as 50p. No one's losing out on their points balance here – big or small.
For context, you'll earn three points for every £1 spent and every point is worth 1p. To rack up enough points to buy Maybelline's lash sensational sky high mascara (£12.99, Boots.com), you'd need to spend £433 total. While this might not seem an easy feat, you'd be surprise how quickly those tampons and cotton pads runs add up. Plus, you'll get double points through the whole of your birthday month, so you can take your party glam to next level knowing it'll earn you money to spend in the long run.
More ways to save at Boots
If you're an avid TikTok or Reels scroller, then chances are you've heard about Boots' renowned recycling scheme. For those that aren't in the know, the recycle at Boots scheme encourages shoppers to be more eco-conscious with their beauty disposal and earn an extra £5 in the process.
In the recycle at Boots app, simply input the barcodes from your empty moisturisers, cleansers and the like, then use the in-store QR code to confirm and deposit your products. You'll then receive a hefty 500 of advantage card points for every five or more items dropped off. Something to note: you'll have to spend £10 to claim your £5 benefit or, for me, a top up of my favourite Monday shampoo and conditioner.
As if that wasn't lucrative enough, there's more in store for Boots shoppers with little ones in tow (or in belly!). The Boots Parenting Club offers advantage card members a free Aveeno gift upon joining and more treats as your baby grows. You'll be able to score eight points per £1 spent across baby products, plus offers exclusive to Parenting Club members in the Boots app – all while receiving expert advice to support your care at every stage.
And let's not forget the wonder that is £10 Tuesday, the retailer's pot luck reduction that strikes on a different best-seller each week.
How I find the best Boots discount codes
When browsing for a killer deal, knowing what you want is key – lest you get dragged into another 3 for 2 promotion on products you don't need. If you buy something regularly, try to recall the price you paid last time, so you can ensure you're not being misled with a falsely inflated discount.
Of course, I'll be on-hand to share the very best reductions, but if you fancy a solo exploration, these are my tips:
Add a brand-specific filter to narrow down your search.
Check the price per ml/g on beauty minis and compare them to full-size items. Is that reduced bundle a steal, or simply old stock?
Likewise, check the cost of perfumes across different sizes – the 50ml might not be reduced, but 100 or 150ml could be.
Browse your advantage card offers and activate them pre-checkout.
Look out for a red border box when shopping online. It sits below the price and often details a free gift or multi-buy deal.
My favourite current Boots deals
If you've ever used Hawaiian Tropic then you'll know – and love – the brand's signature coconut scent. This dry oil is no exception and leaves skin with a gloriously hydrated sheen, all while providing a medium-high SPF of 30. Right now, the product is reduced by half (as are most of the brand's lotions and sprays) so, with summer slowly peeking in, it's the perfect time to stock up and keep your skin in good nick come the sunshine and high heat.
Whether you're off somewhere nice or just sunbathing at home, now's the time to give your skin and glam a summer upgrade. With best-sellers from Laneige, Milk and Bobbi Brown, this bundle of beauty goodies will save you more than £90 and leave you prepped for golden hour piccies with glowy, bronzed and scented skin. Plus, there's a handy toiletry bag included to use on your summer travels.
With Father's Day just around the corner, discounts on aftershave and men's fragrance are just what the doctor ordered. Armani Code features notes of bergamot, lemon, tonka bean and smoky guaiac wood. Its packaging is tasteful and understated, and with a generous 50 per cent off, dad will be left smelling fresh without strapping you for cash.
Beauty editor Lucy Partington reviewed ghd's duet styler for IndyBest and described it as 'revolutionary.' It works by taking hair from wet-to-dry via a 2-in-1 styler and hair dryer. This means that it tackles blow-drying as well as straightening and, according to Lucy's review, 'replace[s] the need for both.' With more than £90 off right now, it's a time and money no-brainer.
Having worked many a sales event, including Amazon Prime Day, Black Friday and the Boots sale, Lucy Smith is well versed in scanning for the best deals and discounts. For The Independent, she covers beauty day in, day out, spanning everything from the b est women's perfume s to SPF moisturisers.
When it comes to Boots, she's across the brand's bundles – like its Korean skincare box – and, come Christmas time, can't get enough of its best-selling star gifts. Whether she's tested the products herself, referenced a team member's review or knows a brand inside and out after five years in the industry, you can trust her choices to leave your skin, hair and body looking (or smelling) its very best.

White House warns Downing Street against letting China build 'super embassy' near sensitive financial sites
The Oval Office has urged Downing Street against giving a Chinese embassy the green light to be built near London financial centres. Previously, proposals for the 'super-embassy' were rejected by the Conservative government amid concerns from British intelligence. However, the plans have been reintroduced following lobbying from China 's very own President Xi Jinping. But fresh warning have since emerged, as due to the Royal Mint Court's locality to a sensitive hub of essential communication cables, it poses a great risk for an attack. The suggested site is also situated between several major financial hubs in Canary Wharf and the City as well as three crucial data centres. It is understood US President Donald Trump has warned Sir Keir Starmer against giving the embassy the go-ahead. The matter is believed to have been discussed during trade talks, as Britain and its Atlantic allies discuss how they will implement a trade deal to avoid UK steel producers being lumbered with 50 percent import tariffs by July 9. According to the Times, US diplomats would be trepidatious about sharing intelligence with Britain if the embassy went ahead. A senior US official told the publication: 'The United States is deeply concerned about providing China with potential access to the sensitive communications of one of our closest allies.' It comes after a claims 'dark cabling' running beneath the proposed site 'feeds the City of London' were given in a memo to the United States' National Security Council by members of the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China (Ipac). John Moolenaar, the Republican head of the House of Representatives' China committee said if these reports were 'accurate' that the site would 'pose an unacceptable risk' to both the UK and US. 'The Chinese Communist Party has a clear track record of targeting critical infrastructure.' he said. 'This development would raise serious concerns in the United States and could be viewed as an act of strategic overreach by Beijing and a curious error in judgment by London.' The executive director of IPAC, Luke de Pulford dubbed the matter as a 'flashpoint' in US-UK trade talks, adding that it was 'staggering' the White House had to corroborate the cabling risk to 'defend its own financial system. 'It's time to send Xi Jinping a clear message: no matter the pressure or coercion, the UK and US won't trade away national security, and this embassy isn't happening,' he said. China has been attempting to revise plans for the Royal Mint building, which neighbour the Tower of London, since they were purchased in 2018. It is believed the Chines foreign minister, Wang Yi, brought up the matter with foreign secretary, David Lammy, while visiting London last year. According to The Times, President Xi had also discussed the same issue with the Prime Minister in a phone conversation. The proposal for the embassy, which would be China's largest in Europe, was previously rejected by Tower Hamlets council in 2022. But two weeks after Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeves came back from a visit to China earlier this year, both the council's and Scotland Yard's objections were dropped. Priti Patel, the shadow foreign secretary, described China as a 'dangerous threat to the national and economic security of our country'. She said the Conservative party continued to stand 'firmly' against the embassy proposals, stating her party would never put the UK's 'financial centre or country at risk.' Next Monday, three of Trump's aides are scheduled to meet with their Chinese peers in London for discussions in a bid to solve the current trade war between the two economic powerhouses. The Treasury secretary Scott Bessent, the commerce secretary Howard Lutnick and the trade representative Jamieson Greer will act as representatives for the US, Trump has declared on Truth Social. Yesterday, China 's foreign ministry confirmed vice-premier He Lifeng will be on British shores from June 8 until June 13, adding that talks would with the US would take place. Previously, a Chinese embassy spokesperson has quashed spy allegations, stating: 'Anti-China elements are always keen on slandering and attacking China.' A government spokesman said: 'Applications for a new Chinese embassy in Tower Hamlets have been called in for ministers to decide. A final decision will be made in due course.'
