A MAKE-UP artist has raved about a £2.99 product that is her “holy grail for dry skin”.
According to Elizabeth Marley, Boots’ Traditional Glycerin and Rosewater is an “underrated” skincare product, which might come in particularly handy for you as the weather gets colder.
The toner is designed to soften and moisturise the skin with its cooling formula, being dubbed the perfect solution for parched winter skin.
“This is my holy grail for dry skin,” Elizabeth said in a TikTok video.
“Glycerine helps to keep the skin hydrated and protect the barrier.
“And rosewater is soothing and anti-inflammatory.”
“Boots UK’s glycerin and rosewater is so underrated,” she added in the caption.
“Why should I use glycerin? Glycerine pulls water into the skin and protects the barrier.
“Rosewater is soothing and anti-inflammatory, making them a powerhouse for dry winter skin.
“I am obsessed and have been using this for years.”
Its ingredients, in order of quantity, are: Aqua, Glycerin, Isopropyl alcohol, Methylparaben, Sodium citrate, Citric acid, Parfum, Eugenaria caryophyllus leaf oil.
Bosses at Boots affirmed that the toning water is lanolin-free and dermatologically tested.
“This product is formulated and produced by Boots Skin Care Specialists from traditional ingredients,” they said.
To apply it, douse a cotton wool pad or ball in the toner and swipe it over your face, neck or hands.
Fellow beauty buffs who were already wise to the Boots bargain product took to the comments of Elizabeth’s video to weigh in.
“We need to gate keep!” one said. “It’s so cheap as well.”
“I don’t think I’m a big enough account to sell out a product,” Elizabeth replied. “It is a fantastic product.
“Almost feels wrong that it’s so cheap.”
“I’ve been using it for years,” another fan penned. “Smells gorgeous.”
Others described the product as “gold” and “amazing”.
