No no Boots. Why is this discontinued?

Try the Boots No 7 tinted facial sun cream Factor 50; it comes in two shades fair and medium, is nice and creamy and moisturising.

They seem to have discontinued the Natural Collection long lasting foundation too. I tried to get some for my holiday 4 weeks ago and it was fine ☹️

Susieq62 which one do you use please? Thanks

in a charity shop was a Boots No7 lipstick priced at £10.
checked in Boots and It's a discontinued range......

just saying.

I love Bare Minerals factor 30 tinted moisturising gel in natural - only need a bit but makes a huge difference

I use pan stick - in a nouveau beige - the colour and coverage is perfect to cover the odd blemish so I just use it like a concealer - far cheaper ! I don’t like foundation all over my face but I did use a tinted serum from ‘ The ordinary ‘ - super cheap . Bit tricky getting the right colour though as their light is very light . I find their rose hip oil evens out my skin tone and that plus my pant stick concealer (I have a reddish scar on my nose ) plus sometimes a brush of multicoloured blusher makes me look reasonable . Sun protection is best provided by a proper sunscreen not make up .

Furret.. if you look on Ebay they still have some for sale.. Maybe stock up...

I agree with you CanadianGran regarding Charlotte Tilbury, it is so light on the skin you don’t feel it.

I've gone back to pan stick and love it 😃

I always use Erborian, very light cover and concealer, pricy but it goes a long way

Remember Panstick by Max Factor? I still have some. I found it on the Internet at a low price, and my shade was in stock. I now have several. It works very well as a concealear. I wouldn't pay
nearly £50 to Dior.

Try No7 shield and defend tinted moisturiser. I love it and have used it for years. Every so often I have strayed and tried a "premium" brand like Clinique - but I always go back to this ....

I use Meroda, it’s white in colour, has a very mild perfume and changes to suit the colour of my skin - it also has an added SPF. I’ve always found it incredibly difficult to choose the right colour for my skin tone and this is perfect for many different skin shades. It has a light coverage so looks very natural.

Yip...🤣🤣🤣🤣

I use Nivea Tinted Day Cream 24H Moisturizer, Light Skin Tone. It goes on very easily. Also a blusher brushed on.

I find Boots No7 tinted moisturiser excellent when I do not wish to wear foundation its ideal for going shopping etc

Boots in my town has now converted to self service tills.
I hate them and now avoid going in there unless I have to.

It’s a well recognised fact that the way women dress and apply make-up is influenced by the opinion of other women, not men. I doubt there’s a man on the planet who likes filled lips, caked on make/up, fake eyelashes (and fake anything else?m)

From the Telegraph: (which piqued my interest)

“ I’ve not really used a proper foundation for a few years. I tend just to use a little tinted moisturiser all over, and a bit of concealer where I need it. But there is one product that has changed all of that: Dior’s £48 Forever Skin Perfect multi-use foundation stick, one of the best foundations I have ever tried by far.

I was introduced to it while on a trip to the Cannes Film Festival last spring. Dior Makeup’s creative director Peter Philips was enthusiastically showing me and a couple of other beauty editors his most exciting launch in years: a shiny, palm-sized black case with a foundation stick within.

But Dior has spent five years developing the Forever foundation stick. Since its launch in the UK last autumn, it has been flying off shelves, which is not always a given for a luxury make-up product. But I can see why – rather than looking cakey on the skin and feeling drying, this foundation stick goes on like butter.

It’s also incredibly easy to use – just scribble on where you need it and blend – and there’s no need for concealer, either. “You can draw the stick straight on to your skin, and then blend it in with a brush or a beauty blender,” says Philips. I’ve been using a brush, which blends the foundation beautifully on to the skin, but I’ve also used my fingers and it works very well. You have a minute or two to blend the product in before it sets.

“The make-up result is a ‘filter’-like finish,” says Philips, “luminous and perfecting.”

It can of course be used all over the face, but for the most natural finish, just apply it where you feel you need to even out the complexion a little, and blend. It has enough coverage to cover my dark circles, which is always impressive in my book. I also love that it’s a portable size and easy to carry around for quick touch-ups or for travelling. It hasn’t left my handbag in weeks, and has become my go-to foundation for evening events.“

Sounds like a perfect cut&paste from Dior’s press release… 🙄

That’s because it is. FGT does say ^from the telegraph.

Personally I like MAC cosmetics, though I don't wear much. Their foundations come in a wide range with different coverage and colour for everyone, their sales people aren't too pushy and will put foundation on for you if you have time.

This?
I might buy some. Dior. Great reviews for a ‘dewy’ look.

I read good reviews of this product and would be interested to hear from anybody who has tried it.

Boots are closing many of their shops. The ones in smaller shopping centres may still be open, but they haven't got much to sell. They don't have enough staff, and many of those still working are not very pleasant. When I am forced to shop in Boots I find I have to queue, and as I can't stand for long, it's just not worth it to then find they don't have what I want.

Boots is now owned by an American company, which is not doing at all well in the States, so I suggest you find another outlet for what you need.

Never use make up too cloggy. Factor 50 moisturiser is enough.

When you're at home alone, do you wear make up..? I don't and I look a mess and love it. That's why I wonder about it and who it's for. I don't go outdoors without foundation, mascara and lippy and am not sure why the double standards for myself.... xxx loving the thread

I would recommend L’Oreal true match nude tinted serum. Has 1% hyaluronic acid. Very moisturising in a range of shades. You don’t need foundation. Cost about £12 from Superdrug.
