nowhere near me, bother. They've all sold out round here!
my friend is a bit miffed cos she started using it ages ago, and now she can't get any!

lou33 · 01/06/2007 10:32

Boots are now cleverly hiding it in a cosmetic bag - its a No.7 make up bag and has lipstick and mascara and stuff and also protect and pefrect serum. The make up bag is black with shocking pink lipsticks on it.

I saw a queue at the No7 counter and joined it unthinkingly
[baa]
So shaming
I would guess that the lady who sold it to me had not used it

cathcart · 19/06/2007 14:12

is it really that good?

lou33 · 19/06/2007 14:13

lol twas a man who sold it to me, but i am undecided if he had used it or not

i kind of liked the glass bottle, the plastic tube makes it look cheaper imo

GameGirly · 19/06/2007 14:14

I just keep buying it online ... there's a 3 for 2 offer on and if you spend a certain amount you get free P&P.

lou33 · 19/06/2007 14:15

i think i am starting to see a difference

OP posts:
lou33 · 19/06/2007 14:15

Sadly, I'm still old and wrinkly (with spots too, of course)

lou33 · 19/06/2007 14:20

it could be that my glasses need cleaning tho

OP posts:

limited to one per customer in our boots

winnie · 19/06/2007 14:24

I've just asked about this product on another thread. I am very tempted (and I really could do with it - if it works).

bakedpotato · 19/06/2007 14:27

I had a sample tube from last summer, which I forgot about until the media kerfuffle, at which point I dug it out and started to use it

It makes the skin very slippery and smooth -- like a sort of uber moisturiser/primer. But I think that is about the extent of it.

I like it enough to queue, I guess

bundle · 19/06/2007 14:32

baaaa indeed

see here

dollyk · 19/06/2007 14:36

I got this quite a while back I have noticed the difference I will be getting some more, its a shame they dont sell it in bigger bottles

noddyholder · 19/06/2007 14:45

what is it claiming to do?

bundle · 19/06/2007 15:56

latest beauty hysteria re: this product apparently

NBuGgeration · 19/06/2007 15:59

My mum says shes highly disappointed with it and that the Guinot products are much better.

ShinyNewShoes · 19/06/2007 20:35

Have seen it quite a bit recently - Diss and Norwich branches - loads in Castle Mall branch, even on a display next to the queue system thing. Clearly us yokels just hide our wrinkles under a straw hat or something........

prettymum · 19/06/2007 20:38

the boots store i work in now have a lot in stock as people arent asking for it much anymore!! theyre now in tubes because they ran out of glass after the huge demand.

DeviousDaffodil · 19/06/2007 20:39

I found it has made a noticeable difference to my usually bad skin. Bit too greay to use twice a day as recommende use it at night.
