Boots.com review: First off I am annoyed at Boots for not being transparent about the change in formula. A change of packing does not necessarily speak to the fact that the product inside is now vastly different from what they produced before. I purchased the same colour shade that I’ve used for 6+ years, and found it to be horrifically orange! It almost looks like a bad fake tan after applying. It’s watery, therefore you apply it and get weird streaks/marks. Once it’s on and has settled it looks a little better but it is very sheer and coverage is very poor! It just honestly feels like they’ve put a 50p product into a £14.95 foundation brand and bottle. Very strange move, and can only assume it’s some weird cost saving exercise on the production methods. I would not recommend and won’t waste my money on the so called matt version which has even worse reviews. Such a shame. If it ain’t broken don’t try to fix it Boots! I think this could be the start of the end of the No.7 brand, the way things are looking. Sad times.

Boots.com review: I’ve used the original foundation for years and loved it. When I went to renew it recently I realised the packaging had changed. I reckoned it would be fine but boy was I wrong. The original just glided onto my skin but this stuff does not. I feel like I’m dragging it on. I will now have to find a new foundation as this is rubbish. Come on boots. This is so disappointing..

Boots.com review: I have bought the old packaged stay perfect foundation for years and loved it. Bought this new one and it’s awful. I will not buy it again

Boots.com review: I used to love this foundation, bought 2 of the new packaging as on offer. It is awful, i look uneven and patchy, the colour is nothing like it was. What a waste of money, so dissapointed, why change the formula when it was perfect in the first place. Won't be purchasing anymore and now need to find a new foundation.

Boots.com review: Have been using this No7 foundation for years after finally finding a great foundation... why have you changed such a great formula? please change it back this one is absolutely not the same! and much more watery! shall be looking elsewhere now..

Boots.com review: I have emailed Boots, reviewed on here, messaged no.7 on Instagram and also spoken to no.7 staff in store and no one wants to know. I asked each time if anyone actually reads the reviews and they skirted round the question without actually answering it. I explained that finding a decent foundation is so difficult and can take years, something that really affects those of us that wear it. All they responded was that they had listened to customers and they had received feedback that the previous formula had looked dull on their skin. I was then told to try another foundation....sigh

Boots.com review: Used to love this foundation but since it’s been changed it is terrible. Applying with a beauty blender is a disaster, just keeps removing the foundation from the skin. Does not last long and coverage isn’t how it used to be. Should never have been changed. €5 foundations do a better job.

Boots.com review: Another foundation ruined why have the changed the formula so much in this. Won't be buying again disappointed.

Boots.com review: Like most of the reviewers here I’m really disappointed in the new version of this. The old version was brill, sat all day needing minor touch ups (due to my skin type) and the colour match was amazing. I have acne prone skin, with scarring and this now makes me look like a chalky golf ball. What’s happened to the colour too? I now look like I’ve been tangoed, like my face and neck are two different people, a real y2k look. The new spatula is annoying too especially if you’re too quick it can go everywhere. Even more disappointed in the fact I bought 3 when they were on offer. And I’ve looked at the unused ones and they’ve literally changed from the original colour to orange lol what a waste of product and money. So glad I came on to read the reviews because I thought I was the only one.

Boots.com review: So gutted the formula has changed. I only discovered Stay Perfect last year and was so happy to have found the perfect foundation for my skin type and shade. The new formula is too heavy and was sitting in my smile lines within minutes. Fortunately I got a sample from a store so didn't waste money on a whole bottle.
