Boots Traditional Skincare Range Glycerin and Rose Water - Reviews | MakeupAlley (2025)

I love the packaging and price of this product! It leaves my skin as soft as if I've used a mask on it. I use it at night as I do find it a bit greasy/sticky. I love the softness it gives when i...

I use the 'Traditional' variant and I love it. As mentioned below, the price is excellent. I'm also a fan of the bottle as it is light, doesn't break, and the little opening is small and the cap...

This is a very nice, gentle toner that smells lovely. It works well to remove the residue left by the very poor cold cream in this line. At less than 3 quid, it's quite inexpensive. The...

This is a great product, that, as other reviewers have mentioned, is on the bottom shelves in Boots. But it is so worth finding! I find that it leaves my skin so soft and moisturised and for the...

This could be the best discovery of 2007 for me so far. It's dirt cheap - you get PLENTY as in a HUGE clear plastic bottle. The bottle even has a cover over it with a small hole in so you...
