Bottom Line: A No 7 serum with key ingredients like vitamin C and gluconolactone that help to brighten skin, fade dark spots, and reduce signs of aging. Frequently Asked Questions SAP (the vit C derivative, not the enterprise software, obvs) is a promising derivative that has great stability up to pH 7. The challenge with it thoughis skin penetration. Unfortunately, it seems to be limited, or to quote a great article from theJournal of Cosmetic Dermatology "topically applied ascorbyl phosphate salts are, at very best, poorly absorbed in comparison with AA". Regarding conversion to AA, there seems to be no data about it, so we can neither deny nor confirm it. Sara is probably right in thinking that you might be allergic to something in your Lift and Luminate cream.No 7 Lift and Luminate Serum includes the vitamin C derivative 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid as one key ingredient. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that protects your skin from environmental free radical damage. Vitamin C also helps fade dark spots, evens out skin tone, and increases radiance. The Boots No7 skin care line debuted in 1935 and positioned itself as a prestigious but affordable collection. It launched with 11 products and the tagline “the modern way to loveliness”.

All Boots No. 7 products are hypo-allergenic, meaning that any ingredients known to cause an allergic reaction have been removed. No 7 skincare products are simple formulations, good for those who don’t need active or super hardworking skincare. Pros The moisturizer also has a strong floral fragrance, which makes using it each morning feel like a treat, but some may find it overpowering.Overall, over a month-long period, we found this to be one of the brand’s best daytime products, due to the moisture it gave to our skin and its price point. and, it might be worth noting that your Lift and Luminate will last for up to 24 months once opened, so don’t throw it away just yet if you think you could get some use out of it.

Notice we said “disguise” signs of aging, not treat or correct. That’s because this eye cream mostly consists of humectants (glycerin, butylene glycol, etc.), silicones (cyclopentasiloxane and cyclohexasiloxane), and denatured alcohol. Another thing SAP might be able to do is to help with acne. A 2005 study showed in vitro (in test tubes) that 1% SAP has a strong antimicrobial activity on evil acne causing P. acnes and it also showed in vivo (on real people) that 5% SAP can strongly improvethe inflammatory and non-inflammatory lesions of acne vulgaris. In fact, the results were comparable or even slightly better than with 5% benzoyl peroxide.

Firstly I started by clearing my bathroom cupboard. I do this on a monthly basis when I change products after a trial, only this time I removed far more products than I have before. As I had promised to only use the Lift & Luminate range, it made me realise just how many different products make up my usual skincare routine. To be as accurate as possible I decided not to use any additional products. This meant leaving out a copper serum, essence, hyaluronic acid and a separate SPF. By week four my breakouts were over and the most noticeable change in my skin was that a stubborn small patch of pigmentation on my cheek had practically gone. This is really impressive because nothing else seemed to shift it. My skin looked smooth and felt slightly firmer to the touch. I didn’t see a big difference to the lines on my face but I think that I started from quite a good place. I get to try lots of innovative products, so I would be very disappointed if my skin wasn’t pretty good before I started the trial. No 7 Lift & Luminate 4 Week Challenge Conclusion We have better news regarding the three magic abilities of vitamin C: there is in-vivo (tested on real people) data showing that SAP does have photo-protective (aka antioxidant) properties, though less than pure AA. SAP might also aid collagen boosting;in-vitro (made in the lab) data shows that it works, but is less effective than another vitamin C derivative, called MAP (that seems to be as effective as pure AA). As for skin-brightening, there is a trade publication with in-vivo data showing that SAP can fade brown spots.
