Boots No7 Protect & Perfect Body Serum

[Photo credit:Eleven.se]

After the success of Restore & Renew Beauty Serum in 2007, Boots has launched Protect & Perfect line, expanded from the Beauty Serum to Day Cream, Night Cream, Eye Cream, Body Serum, and Anti-Aging Serum for Men. The Protect & Perfect line is formulated with age defying ingredients to repair the signs of aging, even out skin tone, and to reduce fine lines and wrinkles for younger, firmer and luminous skin.

On my previous post about Boots No 7 Protect & Perfect Line, I mentioned it is possible that the day cream, night cream and eye cream from the line will hit the shelves in the US this coming fall. However, Protect & Perfect Body Serum ($24.99) already is the newbie available at Target stores in the US. It was out on the market in UK back in October, 2007. Boots Body Serum claims to promote a firmer appearance, and restore luminous skin in four weeks.

Restore & Renew Beauty Serum is for use under a facial moisturizer while the body serum (200 ml for $24.99) is intended to be applied solo. Most of the reviews I have come across conclude that the Body Serum is richer than the texture of Beauty Serum, but it goes on smooth and refines the skin texture noticeably. However, the opinions on whether the Body Serum delivers a positive effect on lessening fine lines vary.

I notice Body Serum is not featured on the Target website at this point. Have any of you spotted this new product at Target store yet?

I'm a beauty advisor for Boots in the NW, and I have Protect and Perfect Body Serum on my shelf (though, at the moment, I think it's sold out in my Target). Due to its being so new on the shelf, I haven't had circulation yet from people who have bought it from me. After having made a tester for it, though, I can feel it's very easily absorbed, glides on the same as the beauty serum with a little added moisture...and it has the same peptide and anti-oxidant complex as the beauty serum. I personally love the Restore and Renew (as well as the Refine and Rewind...the more intensive version for skin with the deepest wrinkles)serum and can attest to its tightening capabilities, as well as to the fact that women decades older than me are returning month after month to restock their bathroom cabinets with it and claim it's really working to reverse the crow's feet, forehead line...aid tremendously in overall tightening. I expect no less of the body serum. I'm going to purchase some next paycheck!

Hi there,

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences of the Protect and Perfect beauty and body serums.

If you ever try out the Body Serum, let me know how you like the Body Serum. I think I will purchase them the next time I go to Target. Hopefully it is not sold out in the local Target.

Thank you very much for stopping by. Hope to hear from you again!

Cheers,

BA

I'm a former Beauty Advisor for Boots in MN (but I still am at heart!). I just picked this up because when I first tried the sample I noticed that the serum helped the eczema on my arm. I use it along with the Fabulously Firming Body Cream because my skin is just so dry. They seem to work great together!

Hi there,

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with Boots!

I have a dry skin type as well. I have been meaning to check out the Protect and Perfect Body Serum at Target. It is still on my list of body-care products for this coming winter.

Thanks a lot for stopping by!

Cheers,

BA

I would be interested to find out whether the Protect and Perfect Beauty Serum is suitable for using under eyes. Any insights on how to apply it would be much appreciated.

Hello Viktoria,

I am very sorry for my belated reply.

Protect and Perfect Beauty Serum is for using on the face and neck.
As for your question, I wouldn't recommend applying the face serum around the eyes.

The skin around the eyes is thin and delicate without oil glands.It needs a seperate product with smaller molecules and different concentration of ingredients to penetrate through the skin.

If you want something for the eyes, Boots actually has No7 Protect & Perfect Eye Cream that is specially created for the delicate area around the eyes.

I hope the information helps. Please let me know if you have any question. Again, I am very sorry for my late reply.

Hope you have a nice weekend!

Best,

BA

I am a Boots BA in the NW. I know this is late but for Viktoria and BA -- the No7 Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum ( formerly Restore & Renew ) is a facial serum suitable for use around the delicate eye area. It is a serum, it is light in texture and intense in vitamins and proteins that fight aging. Follow w/ Protect & Perfect Eye Cream and you have an intense treatment for those crows feet cropping up.
