Boots.com review This is first time I’ve tried Retinol and after reading the instructions was a little apprehensive to start . But I had no problems with the creams . I used them daily and my skin is brighter and feels lovely . I’ve used now for 3 weeks and I’m very impressed with the results .

Boots.com review This was my first time trying a Retinol product. I liked the packaging and the tub size. The writing needs to be a bit clearer on the lid to say which is which cream but after a few days I remembered anyway!. I was impressed in how easily the day cream absorbed into my skin. It was light to feel and had a nice fragrance which wasn't strong. The SPF took longer and felt thicker on my skin but that is to be expected from sun cream. It left my skin feeling soft and smooth and radiant. I must admit I haven't noticed a difference in fine fines but after using it for longer this may change

Boots.com review The creams felt lovely to apply and soaked easily into my skin without being greasy. i do feel my skin was smoother and clearer after a using it every morning for a week. I love the fact that the product includes SPF so i don't need to apply another cream.

Boots.com review Have only used this for 2/3 weeks and have mixed feelings about it. Negatives - as I hadn't used a Retinol product before, I was not sure which of the 2 creams was which and it could have been clearer in instructions. Also some important details in instructions are in very small print ie do not use if ...Don't like 2 sections, a bit messy. Results from short term use show improvement in skin texture but not much different to my usual moisturiser. Slight improvement in fine lines. Using my usual light foundation after worked well although it also has a 6 SPF. Would need to use longer to know if the product was suitable for me, an octogenarian with a lot of lines and wrinkles.

Boots.com review Have been using the No7 Pure Retinol Action Day Cream Duo for about 3 weeks and really like it. It comes in a uniquely designed pot split into 2 for each of the products. The Retinol & vit C and cream applies really easily and leaves my skin feeling very smooth. Yes you do need to wait for it to soak in but I use that time to brush my teeth. Once this is soaked in you apply the SPF on top. What I like is the fact you get the 2 in one and it covers all aspects of a Daily moisturiser, serum and SPF. Although the lid is labelled with step 1 and step 2 it could be made clearer but I didn’t have a problem remembering which cream to apply first. My skin feels softer, looks brighter and is well protected.

Boots.com review I've been using the No7 Pure Retinol Triple Action Day Cream Duo for around three weeks. Since I've never tried retinol before and my skin can be sensitive, I was worried about a reaction. Surprisingly, my skin loves it—it moisturizes effectively without feeling sticky. I wait about five minutes before applying SPF, and it doesn't leave my skin greasy. While it's a bit early to notice changes in lines, my skin feels smooth and silky. The only downside is the product isn’t labelled as to which is which, so you have to guess! The packaging details are quite small too.

Boots.com review This is a clever product that provides the benefit of retinol but comes with the separate compartment of SPF cream . I am always a bit wary of products with inbuilt SPF so I often put an independent SPF on . However with this product I don’t feel the need to . I found the retinol cream light and easily absorbed, the SPF a little less so . I agree with comments re need for better labelling of which compartment is which . My skin does feel brighter , smoother and I will keep using it .

Boots.com review Being viaually umpaired K found the labeling hard to read and also the box with the instructions hard as well the cream was very nice to feel and put on my skin and the smell was also very nice as well but I think boots and No.7 needs to look at changing their labeling so it's better to read for visually impaired people.

Boots.com review Tremendous stuff here from No 7. I really like that the pot contains two separate products, both of which are easy to apply. First you apply the retinol and vitamin C moisturiser which is wonderfully light and almost gel-like. It sinks in beautifully and leaves your face feeling silky smooth. Once it's sunk in, you then apply the separate SPF30 cream which, of course, is essential if you're applying any retinol to your face in the daytime. The SPF isn't as light as the moisturiser, but it does sink in fairly quickly leaving your skin feeling silky smooth again. Having applied this every morning for the last month, I have noticed my skin look brighter and fresher. I've noticed that a fellow male reviewer has bizarrely claimed that this product is "probably not aimed at men" but as a bald man who has always applied a separate SPF after moisturising, I couldn't disagree more. The overall results in my view are highly impressive and the two creams in the one pot concept really is a very practical one.

Boots.com review This is a lovely product which I will definitely be adding to my daily moisturising regime. The first step is to use the retinol and vitamin C cream which my skin tolerated very well. Once this is well absorbed the SPF moisturiser should be added to the face. After using this product for 3 weeks my skin feels ultra soft, looks bright and feels well moisturised. My only criticism would be that on days when I'm in a hurry, its a little inconvenient waiting for the retinol/vitamin C to be fully aborbed before adding the SPF moisturiser. Despite this I would definitely recommend this Boots No 7 product and will continue to use.
