About this deal

Bottom Line: The No 7 Retinol serum combines 0.3% pure retinol with the peptide complex Matrixyl 3000, which both works to reduce the appearance of lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and more. Pure Retinol Hand Cream is dermatologically tested & formulated to harness the power of pure retinol and minimise irritation. This rich, hydrating and fast absorbing No7 hand cream helps protect against dryness, delivering 8 hours of hydration. But ultimately, this is a case of you get what you pay for, and while we did see results with No7’s concentrate, with improvement in skin texture and some fine line reduction, the Dr Dennis Gross serum produced a far more noticeable change in both areas. This No 7 serum has a formula that’s very similar to the brand’s other serums, with key ingredients like humectants, silicones, emollients, and aluminum starch octenylsuccinate.

Like we mentioned above, vitamin C is an antioxidant that protects against free radicals, helps to fade dark spots, evens out skin tone, increases radiance, and promotes firmer skin. The Boots No7 skin care line debuted in 1935 and positioned itself as a prestigious but affordable collection. It launched with 11 products and the tagline “the modern way to loveliness”.

As if that wasn’t enough, research suggests that when vitamin C is applied to the skin, it significantly reverses aging-related structural changes by influencing collagen and elastin synthesis. Although, as our in-house biochemist, Elle MacLeman points out, most of the research on vitamin C’s benefits comes from the ingredient L-ascorbic acid. The No 7 Lift and Luminate Powder is a finishing powder that sets makeup while also diffusing light and reducing the appearance of pores and fine lines, leaving skin looking visibly smoother. It’s only available in two shades: light and medium. The formula includes a 1.5% “retinol complex” which consists of 0.3% pure retinol, 1% retinol optimizer, and 0.2% retinol soother. Including 1.5% in the name of this product is slightly misleading, in our opinion. But the good news is that even 0.3% pure retinol is enough to produce noticeable results. What kind of results can you expect? This is another No 7 serum with the anti-aging peptide complex Matrixyl 3000 as the key ingredient to help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Collagen Peptide-based technology - MATRIXYL 3000 PLUS TM, our next generation of age-defying complex. But this formula houses another brilliant ingredient that isn’t given top-name billing: niacinamide, or vitamin B3. Niacinamide increases the skin’s elasticity, making skin look and feel plumper and more even, and is highly effective at reducing redness left by spots, making it a go-to for those who struggle with acne. It comes second in the listed ingredients, after water, meaning there’s a high concentration of it, too. of women saw even better results when adding No7 Pure Retinol 0.3% Retinol Night Concentrate (to be used as step 1) & No7 Pure Retinol Night Repair Cream (to be used as step 2) to their regime. This No 7 eye cream has a silky texture that will glide on easily, helping the skin around your eyes to feel smooth and moisturized while also possibly disguising signs of aging like crow’s feet.The talc in this formula also helps to absorb oil and reduce shine. Perhaps you’ve heard that talc in cosmetics is dangerous, but is that true? BIG MISTAKE! After first day I got a sore dry spot on my upper lip but did not connect it to the serum. It got worse over couple of days, burning & tingling- I even thought I’d somehow got a cold sore (never had one in my life) With continued use our lightening complex helps to fade appearance of dark spots and help prevent new ones forming, while our skin firming pro-retinol complex works to help restore and maintain supple feeling skin. Formulated with Pro-Vitamin B5 for healthy nails and cuticles. Our unique and powerful formulations of pure retinol and MATRIXYL 3000 Plus™ will help to transform your skin’s appearance. What’s changed about our Retinol offering? Data from an FDA study indicate that retinyl palmitate, when applied to the skin in the presence of sunlight, may increase your sensitivity to the sun, so make sure you use this at night and apply your sunscreen during the day.

Moving forwards with the product’s rebrand, we wanted the percentage to call out solely the amount of pure retinol, hence the new 0.3% in the name – and we’ve also moved forward with a stronger 1% concentration for those who are used to using retinol in their regime. But more on that later… The benefits of using Retinol Matrikines are peptides that regulate cell activities through cell signaling. The two matrikines in Matrixyl 3000 work synergistically to restore and maintain the skin’s youthful appearance by signaling to cells to produce more collagen. No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the ChronicleLive team. No 7 skincare products are simple formulations, good for those who don’t need active or super hardworking skincare. Pros Similar to the Lift and Luminate Serum, the Night Cream features vitamin C as a key ingredient, but this time it’s the water-soluble derivative ascorbyl glucoside. After being absorbed into the skin, ascorbyl glucoside is converted to ascorbic acid (the active form of vitamin C) to provide benefits like improving uneven skin tone, fading dark spots, and increasing skin firmness. Ascorbyl glucoside is considered to be more stable than the traditional form of vitamin C, L-ascorbic acid, but research also suggests it may not increase the vitamin C content of the skin as readily.and, it might be worth noting that your Lift and Luminate will last for up to 24 months once opened, so don’t throw it away just yet if you think you could get some use out of it. Bottom Line: No 7 Line Correcting Booster Serum contains just one ingredient that provides anti-aging benefits, and that’s the peptide complex Matrixyl 3000.
