Boots shoppers stock up on ‘amazing’ foundation that’s ‘cheaper than outlets’

Boots shoppers have been rushing to ‘stock up’ on a luxury foundation after saying they’ve never been able to get it so cheap before. By stacking deals and discount codes, the popular beauty buy is even cheaper than it is at outlet stores , saving beauty fans a fortune.

The Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation usually retails at £37.50 - but some customers have been bagging it for as little as £15.

The deal was spotted by bargain hunters on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, where one money-savvy shopper said: “Thank you to the lady who posted about the Estée Lauder foundation. £20 with discount code”.

The Boots website currently has a deal on the foundation which saves shoppers £7.50 , taking the price down to £30. Then, at the checkout, customers can stack the discount code ‘SAVE5ELFOUNDATION’ on top, which knocks the price down further to just £20.

At The Cosmetics Company at Cheshire Oaks, the beauty buy comes in at £26.75, so it’s a price customers have dubbed ‘unbelievable’.

One said: “Just purchased this now, thanks, fab price. £20 with code at check out. Stock up.” Another said: “Just ordered some myself and one for my mum .. cheaper than the outlet ones.”

While a third commented: “Thankyou so much!! Almost ran out and thought I was going to have to wait until after Christmas.”

But some have managed to get it even cheaper, with students benefiting from a 10 per cent student discount , which takes the foundation - which has almost 3,000 five star reviews - to just £18.

One customer who took advantage of the extra £2 off was even able to use their Advantage Card to purchase the makeup, making it ‘free with my points’.

Other Advantage Card holders were able to get the foundation for just £15 a bottle , thanks to an in-app offer which knocked £10 off a £40 spend. A savvy customer commented: “I did this and I have also have a £10 off voucher when spending £40 with advantage card so I paid £30 for two!!”

Another wrote: “Thank you so much for this! Never been able to get it this cheap before!”

The Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation is praised for its ‘24-hour staying power’ and is available in over 60 shades to suit cool, warm and neutral skin tones.

It offers a ‘fresh matte’ finish and helps control oil throughout the day, with the brand claiming it ti be sweat, heat and humidity resistant, as well as waterproof and ‘lifeproof’.
