Boots.com review: I came online to purchase my usual No7 Stay Perfect in Calico - I've been buying it for years because it's a great colour on my pale skin, goes on and blends beautifully, doesn't cake, and stays put all day long... but after seeing the formula's been changed and reading SO many TERRIBLE reviews, there is NO WAY I'm going to risk spending my hard-earned money on it! Why on earth you'd change the formula of something so popular is beyond me. PLEASE, Boots, return it to how it used to be and we'll come back in our droves to buy it again.

Boots.com review: I changed from Lancome years ago because they kept discontinuing their foundations & was really happy to find Stay Perfect. I wear it every day & always buy a few different shades for different times of year, fake tan etc. The higher SPF would be great for those who don't use a separate SPF, but the new Stay Perfect is different in texture & colour. I can't believe I've to go foundation hunting again!!

Boots.com review: I've used this for years assistant said packaging only thing that's changed...not the case the product is awful, totally different colour and feels thick and cakey on skin! Why change a product that was so nice to this rubbish! PLEASE PLEASE bring old one back!!!!!! Now have to try and find new brand.

Boots.com review: Have bought many foundations and all awful, more often making me look orange! I bought the colour porcelain and it is perfect for my pale skin. No orange in sight! Love it!

Boots.com review: Excited to see the new No 7 packaging, I purchased this as part of 3 for 2 offer. How disappointed I was. I normally purchase a famous long wear foundation (3 guesses which one?) but thought I would try this. I was colour matched to Sahara but it oxidised immediately and my face was left looking orange. It gave no coverage where I needed it, and most of it transferred onto my cotton face mask.... hardly 'Stay Perfect'. A complete waste of money which would have been better spent towards my usual foundation.

Boots.com review: Why n7? Why? First fundation was perfect. This one is Terrible.

Boots.com review: Went to buy today and noticed all the bad reviews. I’ve been using this for years as it’s the only one that suits my sensitive skin, why has it changed? Is it still suitable for sensitive skin? I’ve noticed the ingredients list has completely changed. Not sure whether to buy or not now???

Boots.com review: So disappointed Boots has changed the formula of this foundation. Like other reviewers I have used Stay Perfect foundation for years and found it to have fantastic coverage without the caked-on look. The new formula is awful - much thicker yet a less even finish and doesn’t even seem to last as long. Colour is also completely different. So sad that I now have to try seek out a new product that is more like the old version. Please bring back the old formula!

Boots.com review: I used to use this foundation all the time. The colours are definitely not the same (much darker) and the formula is much thicker. It didn’t sit well on my skin at all and felt really thick when applying. Only plus side is it feels dry and smooth once on the skin but doesn’t look good at all. Also more expensive than before!

Boots.com review: I have only worn no7 for years and the new foundation is not the same at all. I was informed that the only difference is spf but it definitely isn’t the case… I usually wear Calico but it’s so much darker. I have wasted £15 now as can’t wear it and now need to find a different product that will match my skin… #bringbacktheoldfoundationN07
