Some standout offers include a better than half-price discount on Remington's Shine Therapy Hair Straightener.

The Remington Shine Therapy Hair Straightener features ceramic plates enriched with Moroccan Argan Oil and vitamin E, a temperature display showing nine settings, an automatic shut-off function, and a rapid heat-up time of just 15 seconds. One satisfied reviewer said: " Best straighteners I have ever owned, much better than GHD. They glide effortlessly through the hair and only need to pass once to get shiny straight hair!" Another Boots deal that customers might want to grab fast is the Lovenotes by Ariana Grande Vanilla Suede 125ml fragrance - now £37.50 (was £75). This half-price offer gives perfume fans the cheapest price for the scent, with LookFantastic and Superdrug both offering it for £75, while Debenhams ' price is currently £60. Vanilla Suede opens with sparkling bergamot and creamy sandalwood before warming musk and rice milk emerge. The skin-like scent has been hailed as Ariana Grande's 'best perfume to date' in reviews. One delighted shopper said: "I bought this in the black friday sale and it's nearly finished. Can't believe how good it is, my most complimented perfume ever. Get asked what i'm wearing every single time I wear it. Definitely one you need to wear to appreciate." Yet, someone else wasn't too impressed, adding: "Just like a body spray. For the price point, does not last at all." Alternatively, Kayali's Vanilla 28 Eau de Parfum boasts similar notes, starting at £28 for 10ml on Cult Beauty. Boots has also reduced a number of high-performance skincare buys in its latest sale. With 20% off, the No7 Future Renew Peptide Cleanser (150ml) is now £19.96, reduced from £24.95. A top-rated product, the cream formula is designed to gently remove makeup, excess oil and everyday impurities. It contains No7's world-first peptide technology, along with a blend of vitamin C and niacinamide, to leave skin visibly renewed. One happy reviewer said of the item: "Absolutely fabulous cleanser. Quick and easy in the shower and brilliant at taking off all my makeup including mascara. You dont need much so very economical. My skin feels so clean and soft. I'm 70 and get loads of compliments on my skin." But another person wasn't entirely pleased with the formula, saying: "I found this cleanser to be gentle on my sensitive skin, but it left a bit of a greasy residue that I didn't enjoy. I'm not sure it is worth the price point." More deals in the Boots summer sale can be found here. Elsewhere, Charlotte Tilbury has up to 50% off selected beauty bundles on its website.
