Where Can I Get Boots No 7 Restore & Renew Beauty Serum?

Boots No7 Restore and Renew

Frustrated because you can’t find Boots No7 Restore & Renew Beauty Serum? Join the club.

While Boots No7′s Restore and Renew has been sold out all all over the country, it’s coming back on July 18th…but not necessarily to a store near you.

On July 18, Restore & Renew will be available at 8:00 AM EST at the CVS/pharmacy on 630 Lexington Avenue (at 53rd Street) in New York City. If you’re a makeup moxie in Manhattan, don’t plan on buying a gallon of this stuff, there’s a two-bottle limit per customer.

Why all the hype about Boots No7 Restore & Renew? Ever since the BBC reported on scientific findings that Boots No7 Protect and Perfect fights skin damage as effectively as doctor-prescribed Tretinoin (also known as retinoic acid, which is the active ingredient used in Retin-A), Boots No7′s “miracle” serum quickly sold out in the U.K.

After The Today Show picked up the story, Boots No7 Restore & Renew, the American version of this product, quickly sold out all over the U.S.

If you’re really dying to get your hands on Restore & Renew, you have a few options:

(1) Show up in New York next week and get in line ;)

(2) Join the bidding war on eBay and compete to pay an inflated price. Restore & Renew retails for $21.99. As of today (07/11/07 — 3:30 PM PST), auctions for Restore & Renew are pushing upwards of about $70. While there are a few current top bids for less than this, those particular auctions won’t end for several days.

(3) Get on the waiting list to be notified when this serum is available in stores and online. To sign up for the waiting list, visit http://www.boots.com.

So tell me, makeup moxies: Has anyone tried Boots No7 Restore & Renew yet? What do you think of it?

And for those of you who haven’t tried it, have you been trying hard to find it? Share your stories!

    I have gotten Boots No 7 on Ebay and paying $33.95 for it. I know that this is more that the price in stores (if you could get it), but less than some are paying. After one month, the pores on my chin look smaller and the general appearance of my skin is noticably improved. I have tried everything before this, and this is the best by far!

    Hi, thanks for sharing your experience with us — and I’m glad you’ve been able to find a project that you really enjoy and that works for you!

    Just out of curiosity, were you able to get the “Protect and Perfect” formula? Or did you buy the “Restore and Renew” version?

    I meant to say *product* (not “project” ;)

    From San Diego, CA – I bought 2 bottles at a local CVS and have used it 2X daily on the left side only of my face & neck. After 3 weeks, I asked the receptionist at the office is she could see a difference in the two sides of my face?

    After looking back and forth for a bit, said that the left side was much smoother and brighter than the right and that the under-eye area was noticeably tighter.

    I concur and am now using it all over. I hope the fine lines on the right side start to recede as well.

    One caveat is that this is NOT a moisturizer and one must still pat an SPF lotion over it. I plan on keeping a supply in my kit at all times.

    Boots Restore and Renew really does work. I am doing extensive research – based on personal and readers’ experience as well as trial data where available on the best and worst anti-aging creams. See http://www.truthinaging.com.
