Boots is currently running a huge saving on the RoC Line Smoothing bundle, designed to combat dark circles and fine lines. For a limited time only, the Retinol Correxion eye cream and Max Hydration cream can be snapped up for just £29.98, down from £62.98.
The RoC Retinol Correxion Line Smoothing Eye Cream, which Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker hailed as a “true holy grail product for keeping under eyes smooth”, targets three signs of ageing – puffiness, dark circles and wrinkles. The formula, co-developed by dermatologists and plastic surgeons, is gentle enough daily to visibly brighten and depuff eyes in four weeks and reduce the appearance of fine lines by 50% in 12 weeks.
With nearly 4,400 reviews on Amazon and over half of shoppers awarding it a five-star rating, one satisfied customer said: “Did not think this would work but was pleasantly surprised as I have very dark under eye bags. Slowly but surely they have started to lighten. Very, very happy with this product.”
Another added: “After using this cream for three months, I visibly noticed a difference in the texture of my skin around my eyes, felt supple and comfortable not dry. Moisturises the eye area as well.”
The RoC Retinol Correxion Line Smoothing Eye Cream is currently retails at £27.99 alone. In another words, an extra £2 can get you a full-size RoC Retinol Correxion Line Smoothing Max Hydration Cream, which Boots are selling for £34.99 at the moment.
The RoC Retinol Correxion Line Smoothing Max Hydration Cream, the star of the Line Smoothing bundle, is infused with pure RoC retinol and hyaluronic acid, promising to enhance skin firmness.
A whopping 94% of users have reported “visible improvement in skin elasticity” and claim the cream delivers a level of hydration previously unattainable with retinol products. However, those with retinol sensitivities have experienced flare-ups, with some reporting their skin “turned red like sunburn”.
But fear not, RoC’s Pure Retinol is tailored for retinol beginners, aiming to keep irritations at bay. For a short time, the RoC Retinol Correxion Line Smoothing Bundle is up for grabs at just £29.98, slashed from its usual £69.98.
Other than RoC, shoppers can consider Olay’s Power of Smoothness set, which has reduced from £57.49 to £38, and it includes the popular 5-in-1 Super Serum and a Retinol 24 Night Cream – target to repair dullness, uneven texture and lift wrinkles and plump skin.
You can also save £19.20 on Elizabeth Arden’s Retinol Renewal Retinol HPR Set and it features the anti-ageing water face cream, eye cream and serum. It’s now available on the official website for £78.40.
If you are new to using retinol or other vitamin A-based products, begin by using the product every other day to evaluate your skin’s response, then gradually increase usage until you find your ideal skincare routine.
