At the til, having gone through the whole rigmarole of “do you have a Boots card?” (of course I do, Sharon – what do I look like? Some kind of amateur?), I was handed my receipt and a voucher for No7.
I often use my vouchers on the brand’s nude lip liners, following a tip from my fave MUA Gracey O’Connell. But what’s everyone else doing with them?
I put a call out on Twitter, to see if what insanely good products I’m missing out on (if any).
One user responded to my request with this.
.@dailyedge @FionnualaJay I use them to insulate my handbag for a few months and then tip them into the recycling bin when I realise they’ve already expired.

Gas.
Luckily, some other guys and dolls came through with some recommendations for what you can do with those pesky vouchers for the clueless among us.
No7 Lash Extender mascara (regular price €18.50)
This comes in black and brown, depending on how Aisling you’re feeling on a particular day.
No7 Radiant Results Revitilising Eye Make Up Remover (regular €12)
Their eye make up remover is 10/10. But I have to say, I’d buy that anyway.”
No7 Perfect Light Loose Powder (regular price €14.50)
This particular product is loved by MUAs Jen Morris (@TooDollyMakeup) and Laura Dempsey.

There’s a couple of different variations of this depending on what you’re after, be it pore minimising or colour correcting.
