Boots’ new affordable collagen skincare is racking up rave reviews

Collagen has been a big beauty buzzword for quite a while now.

So when we found this brand new and affordable collagen skincare bargain bundle at Boots, we not only decided to buy a few for ourselves, we're sharing the love and telling you all about this incredible deal, too.

But what actually is collagen, and why is it so key?

According to Netdoctor.co.uk, collagen is a type of protein found in the skin’s connective tissue. It's crucial for skin healing because it provides structure to your skin and helps your blood clot. In fact, 75 to 80% of our skin is made up of the all-important protein.

Sadly, our body loses its ability to produce collagen as we age. From the age of 20, we lose around one percent of this vital protein each year. Hence the older you get, the more your skin loses its elasticity.

While scientists are still studying the efficacy of collagen skincare and supplements, loads of people swear by it. And we tend to trust the real people who've tried and tested it.

Point in case: given the rave reviews for this Boots Collagen Bundle, £16, this is clearly a brilliant collagen buy that works for lots of very happy customers.

Why we rate it

First of all, we can't get over the phenomenal price point. A mere £16 for three top-rated products? It blew our minds.

The skincare items in this brilliant bundle are usually £12 each (or £10 with an Advantage Card). Making the total value £36 (or £30) – so it's a whopping saving whatever way you look at it.

Not to mention that it's a terrific trio packed with top-notch skin-boosting ingredients to give your complexion a glow-over.

What you'll get in the bundle:

Boots Collagen Youth Activating Serum 30ml – this is a deeply nourishing product that's all about reducing the look of lines and wrinkles for a younger-looking complexion. Apply this lightweight, fast-absorbing serum before your moisturiser.

With one customer going so far as to call this a 'magic cream', others love that it improves their skin really quickly. Someone even commented they think it's better than a more expensive brand they've used and the price point is being hailed a massive bonus, too, so this collagen bundle is winning all the praise.

  • "Since I started using the Boots Collagen collection, my skin feels so much better and softer and it looks amazing."

  • "Love love love this! My skin feels so soft and I think looks better in just a couple of weeks."

  • "Bought the Boots collagen cream and serum together, very pleased with them, better than the expensive brand I used to buy. Will be buying again."
