Summer sale season is fast approaching, and we are ready for a shopping haul.
Amazon Prime Day is set to run from 8th to 11th July in what will be the longest sale extravaganza from the online retailer. But Boots is set to give Amazon Prime Day a run for its money as it will launch a 48-hour sale with up to half price on leading beauty brands.
Boots' sale will see prices slashed by half price on L'Oreal Groupe products as part of its Better Together campaign, which includes L'Oreal Paris, Garnier, NYX Cosmetics, and many more.
The half price sale has one small request – shoppers must spend £30 or more to see the price of their basket drop.
However, what you spend your £30 minimum on is entirely up to you. What's more your shopping basket can be a medley of bestselling beauty products across haircare, skincare, bodycare and make-up cosmetics, and you can mix and match items. More Trending
Whether you are restocking your favourite beauty essentials, trialling the viral sensations everyone has been raving about, or banking items to give as a present for a special someone in the coming weeks or months, is entirely up to you.
The Boots sale will run from 8th to 9th July, which coincides with Amazon's Prime Day sale. So, if the items on your wishlist have sold out online at Boots you can always check Amazon as a back-up plan – or vice versa.
With a plethora of products to shop for less it can be overwhelming knowing what is worth purchasing in the Boots sale, so we have done the hard work for you.
