Binary Pixie: Boots can be really good value!

I absolutely love Boots. I don't know why, other chemists/pharmacies don't interest me nearly as much. When I go in for one item I always come out with ten- There are so many essentials that I absolutely must buy right there and then! I also find myself impulsively buying whatever's on special: Normally they do a 3 for 2 offer- But as a student buying two of something is expensive for me!

Today there were some products that I needed to buy in Boots so I wrote myself a list and I stuck to it! My skin has been awfully dry lately which has never really happened before- I think I'm finally growing out of my youthful 'don't need a beauty regime' phase and now I'll have to start looking after my skin! (For example, Mr Kizzy's roommate once recommended a beauty product to me, it was some sort of face brush thing. I told her to "bear in mind that I don't even use a face wash!" and she couldn't believe how lucky I was to have such naturally nice skin. I think those days are coming to an end lately though!) I decided to buy a big tub of moisturizer a bar of Dove moisturizing creme to use instead of soap for a while and also a tinted, daily moisturizer to try to give myself a bit of a healthy glow.

I made such a huge saving in store! I was going to buy Nivea but then I spotted other brands which were on sale. In the end I chose a tinted moisturizer by Garnier and a nourishing moisturizer from Dove, along with a beauty cream bar.
