Boots No. 7 Protect & Perfect Night Cream Review

Read my complete article about Boots ...

For anti-aging skincare, Boots No. 7 Protect & Perfect is the only option, in my opinion. It contains 35 ingredients. The numbers in parentheses indicate where each of the anti-aging ingredients occurs in the ingredient list.

Antioxidants
• Retinyl Palmitate (19)
• Ascorbyl Glucoside (21)
• Lupinus Albus Seed Extract (24)
• Dimethylmethoxy Chromanol (25)
• Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract (26)
• Gingko Biloba Leaf Extract (28)

Exfoliants
• Retinyl Palmitate (19)

Peptides
• Palmitoyl Oligopeptide (32) – plumping peptide
• Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide 7 (35) – lifting peptide

Summary
Boots No. 7 Protect & Perfect has a very nice antioxidant cocktail. I recommend a combination of antioxidants such as this because the various antioxidants work in different ways and in different portions of the cells.

Boots No. 7 Protect & Perfect has only one exfoliating ingredient and it is too far down the list to have a noticeable exfoliating or collagen stimulating effect. The anti-aging peptides are among the best, but at dead last and third last, they will have no anti-aging benefit whatsoever.

I can’t imagine what the marketers were thinking when they pronounced Boots No. 7 “Britain's #1 anti-ageing sensation”. The products are fine moisturizers. Period.
