Boots has discounted a dermatologist-approved serum that’s been sold over four million times worldwide
Boots shoppers can get a serum “clinically proven to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by up to five years” for just £10. Priced at £34.95, the bestselling skincare product features in Boots’ £10 Tuesday sale.
The weekly shopping event sees hundreds of products discounted, including the No7 LABORATORIES LINE CORRECTING Booster Serum 15ml, which is better than half price in the one-day sale. Boots says No7 has sold more than four million booster serums, and the dermatologist-approved product has an average rating of 3.8 out of five.
One impressed shopper said they saw “an amazing difference in a deep frown line” on their forehead after two weeks of use. Another claimed that “it takes years off you.”

However, not everyone reported the same results. Shoppers looking for alternatives might prefer the Olay Anti-Wrinkle Firm & Lift 2in1 Face Cream + Serum 50ml, which is £13.99 at Superdrug.
Alternatively, customers with a bigger budget might like the Plantscription Active Wrinkle Correction Serum, which is currently half price at £37.50 at Beauty Bay, or the Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Wrinkle Correcting Serum 30ml, which is on offer for £49.60 at Look Fantastic.
The product description for Boots’ product says: “No7 LABORATORIES LINE CORRECTING Booster Serum is our most supercharged serum to date. Formulated with 7x the Matrixyl 3000+ than our previous clinically proven serums.
“It’s been clinically proven to visibly reduce the appearance of even the deepest, most stubborn lines and wrinkles. Designed to be applied directly to lines and wrinkles for fast, visible results where you want them most.”
Boots explains that Matrixyl 3000+ is “No7’s powerful peptide blend that supports the skins natural springs providing elasticity and bounce, which depletes as we age.”
One happy reviewer said: “It really works! I’ve been using this for just two weeks and I can see an amazing difference in a deep frown line on my forehead. The product feels lovely to apply and most importantly it really works!”
Another customer commented: “Wow this does work. I was sceptical reading the other reviews but picked it up for £10 Tuesday offer. It really does work. After losing weight and gaining a few years, I noticed a few deep brow lines starting. After one week of they are virtually gone.”
Unfortunately, some reviewers weren’t happy with their results. One such shopper said: “Been using a while and not noticed any visible difference. Glad I bought this on offer would not pay full price.”
A second wrote: “Bit disappointing. Goes on nicely but can’t really see its making a difference and this is the second one I’ve purchased..so don’t think I’ll buy any more.”
A different response read: “Have nearly finished the vial in a short amount of time. I do not see the slightest difference in my lines. If it weren’t for the Tuesday offer I would not have tried it. I don’t think I will be repurchasing again. There are cheaper option on the market which are better.”
Despite this, many of the reviews remained positive. Someone else said: “It takes years off you! I have been using this product for a couple of weeks and have found it really works and is beneficial for my wrinkled skin.” A fan added: “Stops the lines & wrinkles. I love this serum, works so well on reducing lines. Always get this when on offer.”
