But recently the beauty retailer - which also has pharmacies throughout the UK - is selling a foundation stick that shoppers have hailed as a "magic eraser" - and it only costs £5.99.

The foundation stick is created by cult beauty brand Revolution and has been receiving a lot of praise.

Called the Revolution Fast Base Stick Foundation, the makeup essential is said to "quickly perfect, contours and highlight your complexion."

The range comes in 18 different shades ranging from fair to dark skin - each with their own undertone.

Taking to the Boots UK website, shoppers left their thoughts on the latest must-have beauty product.

One older customer said: "I have been very stuck in my ways with regard to make-up but at 73 I've decided to experiment a bit more, I am so pleased I did as I discovered Revolution a true revelation and wished I'd done it years ago. I love this fast base stick foundation, so quick and easy to apply, love the look it gives me too. Thank you."

Another wrote: "This Foundation Stick is soo beautiful. It is such good quality it feels creamy on the skin and blends beautifully with a sponge and a brush.It is quite full coverage but is buildable. It covers all my pigmentation and acne scars. I love it. It also can be used as a concealer for a more natural everyday look."

A third shopper added: "One of my favourite foundations on the market. The colour F13 matches my brown skin to perfection. At a very reasonable price."

A fourth said: "Such a great product! Honestly one of my favourite makeup products! I moreso use it as a spot corrector, just hiding any blemishes or dark spots/hyper-pigmentation I have and it literally works like a magic eraser! Photoshop irl [in real life], love it."
