We’re almost three months in to 2016 and most of our New Year’s Resolutions have been discarded down the back of the sofa (along with those chocolate wrappers from the chocolates we weren’t supposed to be eating!) But alas, we bring good news. We can continue spearheading the ‘New Year, new me’ resolutions right through the year with a little help from our friends at Boots.
Discover your new favourite lippy, or an eye popping shadow. With exclusive brands and continuous launches of new products, there is a wealth of opportunity for trial and error until you find the ‘new you’, or ‘new yous’, you want to show the world. Boots are all about innovating your beauty routine and encouraging reinvention.
L’oreal Elvive Clay has just splashed onto the market. Its purifying and revitalising qualities help it combat the pesky, age old battle: greasy roots vs dry ends. It’s guaranteed to become part of your routine faster than you can say lather, rinse, repeat.The range is extensive,including a pre-shampoo, dry shampoo, conditioner, shampoo and many more. The anti-dandruff clay shampoo is exclusive to Boots.
Shellac Gel manicures are great. They involve all of the durability and shine of false nails, but none of the damage. However, the downside is that they are pricey and you can only use gel polishes. Well, fear not! SensatioNail have launched an innovative, at-home kit that turns any nail polish into a long-lasting, super-shiny gel polish. With 15-second drying time, the possibilities of colour and design are limitless. Not only exclusive to Boots, but also the first of its kind to launch to market, this product will revolutionise the nail scene.
Let’s stick with nails for a minute… literally, just a minute. Nail Inc’s Paint Can is the world’s fastest manicure. The spray on mechanic applies the nail polish evenly and efficiently, giving you a fresh manicure in seconds. If it’s good enough for Alexa Chung, it definitely good enough for us, right?
It’s definitely safe to say that the glowing skin we see on the catwalk is the result of professional make-up artists and great tools. Thanks to NYX cosmetics, we can now recreate these catwalk styles at home with ease. The best bit? The prices are totally affordable, allowing you to become your own makeup artist. Boots have sold NYX cosmetics online since last October, and they're now beginning to roll out into larger stores.
Cult favourite, Smashbox, is back with two new, dramatic mascaras and an amazing lash primer! It takes only a few sweeps and you can deliver a knock out look in a blink of an eye. X Rated gives jaw-dropping volume and Indecent Exposure provides excessive separation, even in the tiny lashes; Say goodbye to spider-leg chic and morning-after smudges, as the mascara never clumps, smudges or flakes. Plus, you can now prep your lashes with the new Photo Finish Lash Primer - say hello to the amped up lashes of your dreams!
CK2 balances two opposing fragrant forces: the strike of spicy electric freshness and the warmth of magnetic woods. Its fresh, it’s cool, and it most definitely works. For the lovebirds out there, the fragrance is gender free and the bottle is designed to create two pieces perfectly in-sync and connected to each other. You and your significant other can even smell the same… (is that weird? We’re not sure…)
It’s been a decade since the last new product was released by our £1.99 heroes, Natural Collection, and this year, something is a-coming. It’s all a bit hush hush at the moment, but what we do know is alongside the brand new product, Natural Collection is also celebrating the firm favourites of the past few years. From Moisture Shine Lipstick to Blushed Cheeks, put your fresh face forward and get involved!
