Boots shoppers love £12 'must have' skincare for making fine lines 'barely visible'

If you're looking for a retinol product that won't cause irritation while leaving skin glowing and plumped, then it looks like Boots shoppers have found the buy for you.

The health and beauty retailer has slashed the price of the PIXI Retinol Tonic (250ml) from £18 to just £12 in a sale that can see shoppers save up to half-price on selected skincare products.

PIXI beauty products are known for being quite pricey at the best of times, which is why it is good news that the retailer is also offering shoppers up to 1/3 off across select PIXI branded products - including the retinol toner.

Described as a "potent youth preserving tonic", the PIXI Retinol Tonic is said to contain powerful antioxidants and botanicals to replenish the skin for smoother, softer skin.

As retinol can irritate the skin, it is good news that the multi-action treatment also features jasmine flower to help heal and balance the skin.

This popular retinol tonic also features a unique time-release retinol to help reduce fine lines and smooth complexion, while peptides firm the skin and boost collagen production.

Skincare fans who have previously snapped up the PIXI Retinol Tonic have flocked to the Boots website to hail it as a "must have" product that targets the signs of ageing.

One shopper said of the tonic: "This product is an absolute must have in my skincare game now! I love a lot of pixi skincare and when it finally came to boots I was about to stock up on glow tonic and found this is new. After using it for almost 2 weeks I can say it is a miracle worker. My acne got slightly better every single day, the texture of my skin os so much softer and it causes no irritation. It is pleasant to use and has cute packaging like other pixi products. I will definitely be repurchasing."

A second raved: "This is a such a gentle product, I wasn't sure it had a noticeable impact until I ran out. In just 3 days without it my skin looked very dull and congested so I'm not going to take it for granted again! Really freshens up my early ageing, combination skin."

While a third wrote: "I have been using Glow Tonic for years but I decided to switch it up and try the Retinol Tonic, and I'm so glad I did. I noticed some very fine lines on my forehead and I'm trying to keep them from getting deeper. After using Retinol Tonic in conjunction with my Botanical Collagen & Retinol Serum, I've noticed a significant change in the appearance of the lines on my forehead.

"My skin instantly looks more plump, feels hydrated and my forehead lines are barely visible. I also love how gentle this tonic is. I know that Retinol can sometimes be irritating to the skin, but I use Retinol Tonic every evening and haven't had any discomfort. Smell is pleasant, a very light scent of Jasmine."

A fourth five-star review read: "I was so glad to see this in a bigger size! I adore my Pixi Retinol Glow Tonic! I have used the regular Glow Tonic for years, but I am now over 40 and have fine lines and wrinkles and was so glad to find the Pixi Retinol Glow Tonic! It has really diminished the appearance of my fine lines and wrinkles, and it also does not dry out my skin. It exfoliates and leaves my skin glowing!"

Boots shoppers can snap up the PIXI Retinol Tonic (250ml) for £12 online on the Boots website.
