Boots fans will 'never go back' after trying £5 cream 'better than expensive brands'

A bargain moisturiser from Boots has impressed beauty fans who say that they "will never go back" to expensive brands after giving it a try.

The product in question is the Boots Vitamin C Brightening Moisturising Cream which has been praised by shoppers who claim it made their skin look brighter and more radiant. Priced at just £5, the bargain moisturiser is part of Boots' own-brand Vitamin C skincare line.

The cosmetics retailer's affordable skincare range features a selection of products that are all infused with vitamin C. The powerful skincare ingredient is well-known for helping you to achieve radiant skin, while also providing protection from sun damage.

The Vitamin C Brightening Moisturising Cream is designed to be used daily after you cleanse and apply serum. Skin is said to be brighter within just 14 days, while the addition of yuzu extract can help boost the production of collagen.

The lightweight moisturiser is the highest rated product in the Boots Vitamin C range, with over 100 five-star reviews from beauty fans who claim it has them ditching their previous pricier brands.

And a fifth praised: "I've been using this for about 3 weeks along with the other products in the range and I love it! It's really light, absorbs well and smells really nice. I have noticed a big difference in my skin and I'm so much more confident not wearing make up as my skin looks great! It has now replaced all my expensive, high end moisturisers!"
