Boots shoppers can take advantage of the sales to stock up on essential beauty products for less. The high street retailer has been hosting its post-Christmas sale event for several days.
A favourite among customers is the No7 range, which includes numerous gift sets perfect for those who like to plan ahead and stash away future presents or treat themselves post-Christmas. Hundreds have already browsed the virtual aisles since the sale began just before Christmas Day.
One standout set that customers are snapping up is the No7 Ultimate Beauty 9 Piece Collection, priced at £42.50 online. It includes nine items that, if purchased separately, would cost over £136.

Boots has stated that the Ultimate Beauty Collection is "back and better than ever before". The online description says: "Including some of the most iconic and most loved products such as the No7 Protect and Perfect day cream, which instantly makes your skin look more radiant, and mini Future Renew serum to reverse visible signs of skin damage, plus a whole host of No7 beauty favourites."
Marketed as being ideal for those with sensitive skin, there's a generous selection within the reasonably-priced golden beauty box, reports the Mirror.
Most of the items inside are full-sized, providing even more value for money.

The beauty bundle received rave reviews from hundreds of customers, with many awarding it five stars. One satisfied customer said: "Super! I love No7. I'm 76 and people are always asking what face creams I use as I look so much younger!"
Another customer added: "This was a perfect selection of skincare for me as I use all the products and was thrilled to have bought them together. Each product works well and does what it claims to do."
A third customer said: "I buy one of these every year (when they are on sale) as a present for myself. My face is quite dry, but these creams make it feel much better. They and the other make-up primers help to stop patches appearing when I put makeup on."
However, not all customers were pleased, with one expressing disappointment, saying: "I bought this as an alternative to my usual Estée Lauder and Clinique. Since using the night cream my skin has become very sore and it clearly doesn't suit me. I will stick to my usual brands in future as I am now stuck with and expensive mistake."
Another customer had issues with the fragrance, stating: "I did notice a difference in the texture of my skin after a few days, for the better, but I had to stop using it all. The perfumes used made me cough and wheeze all day and I had to use my inhalers far too much. I have seasonal asthma but have never been affected before. Why use perfumes to the extent of every item when it's for sensitive skin? I stopped using after three days, and my asthma subsided."
Elsewhere, at Superdrug the LBL Pro-Glow Vitamin C Day Cream, CBD Eye Cream and Serum is up for grabs at just £32, slashed from £223, reports Grimsby Live. Or, Amazon has a deal on the Simple Skin Kind Hydrating Beauty Bag Gift Set which is now £10.81 in a time-limited sale.
