The ‘powerhouse’ cream melts into the skin and claims to make it ‘more radiant in a week’
Boots shoppers have been raving about a beauty product that helps to “transform” tired and dull skin into something smoother and visibly hydrated. People who use the item say they have been complimented on how their skin looks, and right now their ‘secret weapon’ is only £10.
Normally worth £17.95, the No7 HydraLuminous+ Day Gel comes in a 50ml pot and is discounted for the weekly £10 Tuesday sale. Boots says the gel offers “72 hours of deep hydration” and aims to make “skin look bouncier, plumper and more radiant in one week.”
The health and beauty retailer claims that the gel contains a “powerhouse complex” of ingredients, including hyaluronic acid. Despite offering these intense results, it claims online that it is suitable for those with sensitive skin types.

Boots said: “HydraLuminous+ Day Gel instantly floods the skin with moisture for intense hydration and a healthy-looking glow, leaving you with refreshed and re-energised skin. This ultra-lightweight gel-cream melts into the skin to leave it feeling smoother in just one application.”
People can get alternative day creams elsewhere, such as the L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Filler Renew Anti Ageing Cream from Superdrug (50ml, £14.99 – down from £29.99). Also, there is the CeraVe Moisturising Cream (for Face & Body) that includes hyaluronic acid on sale for £12.79 on Amazon.
However, lots of Boots shoppers have been “using [the No7 product] religiously” and are seeing the benefits. One said: “Lovely product makes my skin feel very soft. Absorbs really well.”
Another wrote: “This is one of my favourite day creams I have bought, it dries so quickly and make my skin look so healthy and glowy. My skin is usually quite dry and dull but this cream really transforms it, I love it!”
A third commented: “After years of trying lots of creams for my dry skin, I randomly picked this up in Boots and it is the best thing I ever did! My skin has never looked better. It gives a lovely dewy (non greasy) glow to my face and everything looks and feels so much smoother.”
There were a few complaints, such as one shopper who thought: “A watery sticky gel that makes my skin dry, sticky and crepe Have continued using to still give it benefit of the doubt, but now getting superficial spots
Another put: “I am usually a fan of No 7 Products but I am really disappointed with this product. I had high hopes for it but it left my skin feeling sticky, tacky, not a pleasant experience.”
But, most experiences were glowing and given a five-star review. Someone who loved the gel said: “When I finally tried it out I was amazed by the instant results. My skin was dull and dry, and this made it look smoother and visibly hydrated. It looks so much healthier and less wrinkled, as it softens the lines around my eyes.”
And, one more told Boots shoppers: “Having just finished chemotherapy, my skin was ruined (I’d suffered really badly from ‘chemo acne’ and skin dryness). Since using this product, so many people have commented on how well I look and how good my skin looks (despite still undergoing some tough cancer treatment).”
Many suggested that they complement the HydraLuminous+ Day Gel with the matching Night Gel, which is also available in the £10 Tuesday deal. Normally, buying both items would cost shoppers close to £40, but this deal slashes the pair down to £20.
