There\u2019s no doubt that beauty brand No7<\/a> has been heavily invested in peptide science for almost 20 years, from the launch of Protect & Perfect<\/a> in 2007 to their latest fly-off-the-shelf Future Renew rang<\/a>e almost two years ago.<\/p>\n

The latter launched with four core products<\/a> – day and night creams, eye cream and a damage reversal serum –  which all contained a brand new blend of peptides<\/a> (or proteins) that had been shown to reverse visible signs of skin damage.<\/p>\n

And, like its predecessor, it caused much chatter <\/a>– a product was bought every two seconds on launch day and became Boots’ best-selling beauty launch to date.<\/p>\n

I wrote about it at the time and the serum<\/a> especially was one of those products that people just loved. I lost count of the number of people who told me, \u2018I bought it because I read your piece, but I\u2019m buying it again because it really works.\u2019<\/p>\n

Perhaps it\u2019s not surprising then, given the massive trend we\u2019re seeing for high-performance body care, that today, No7<\/a> are rolling out three new Future Renew body products containing the same high performing blend of peptides \u2014 at the same concentration that you\u2019ll find them in the original damage-reversal serum. <\/p>\n

\u2018Part of the decision to launch body products was driven by consumers and our in-store advisors. As soon as they saw what the original serum could do for their face, they wanted to do the same for their body,\u2019 explains Dr Eleanor Bradley, Science Credentialing Manager at No7. \u2018But, on the science side, if we think about reversing the visible signs of ageing, we know that those signs are present on the body as well.\u2019<\/p>\n

\n
\n\t\t\"\"<\/a>\t<\/div>
Future Renew has been Boots’ best-selling beauty launch to date (Picture: No7)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And two of the areas where these signs frequently show up are on the hands \u2014 often neglected when it comes to daily sun protection, and constantly being washed and dried \u2014 and on the neck and d\u00e9collet\u00e9 \u2014 similarly often forgotten about when applying skincare to the face but frequently subject to the same sort of damage \u2014 and the skin here tends to be thinner than on the face exacerbating the problem.<\/p>\n

What’s new<\/strong><\/p>\n

As a result, the brand have created an SPF 15 Hand Cream<\/a> (\u00a317.95 for 75ml), a Neck & D\u00e9colletage Serum<\/a> (\u00a344.95 for 50ml) and a Body Serum<\/a> (\u00a334.95 for 200ml) \u2014 for reference, the original Future Renew serum is \u00a347.95 for 50ml \u2014 so what\u2019s the difference?<\/p>\n

\u2018The skin on the neck and d\u00e9collet\u00e9 isn\u2019t just thinner, it also has less collagen, less fibrillin [proteins that make skin look and feel plump] and fewer oil glands than the face,\u2019 Dr Bradley tells Metro. \u2018So we\u2019ve added ingredients to make it more nourishing \u2014 more niacinamide, argan oil \u2014 and a botanical which can help with brightening, as we know that pigmentation is a key concern in this area.\u2019<\/p>\n

\n
\n\t\t\"\"<\/a>\t<\/div>
The skin on the neck and d\u00e9collet\u00e9 isn\u2019t just thinner, it also has less collagen, says Dr Eleanor Bradley, Science Credentialing Manager at No7 (Picture: No7)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Similarly the hand cream is thicker and more nourishing (although it does contain slightly less of the peptide blend, but this is probably balanced out by the fact that you\u2019re going to reapply it more frequently than you would apply the other products) while the body serum is more of a gel-cream. <\/p>\n

All three of the products have very user-friendly textures. The hand cream feels nourishing and creamy but doesn\u2019t leave hands feeling greasy, and both the neck serum and the body serum melt into the skin \u2014 although I prefer the dryer finish of the body serum, as the neck one felt tackier for longer. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s No7 so, as you might expect, they\u2019ve conducted a range of studies including consumer studies and clinical studies. (meaning the results are based on objective measurements and observations, not just on women saying they thought their skin felt better). <\/p>\n

\n
\n\t\t\"\"<\/a>\t<\/div>

One of the most interesting was on the body serum. 35 women aged 47 to 70 with visible signs of ageing were asked to apply the product twice a day to just one arm and one leg, meaning their other arm and leg were the control. After two months of use, the treated side showed significant improvements in texture, dryness and fine lines.<\/p>\n

My verdict<\/strong><\/p>\n

So would I – a beauty expert for more than 20 years, who has tried over 3000 <\/strong>products in my career – use them?<\/p>\n

I think the hand cream<\/a> is a good option if you don\u2019t already use one with broad spectrum sun protection \u2014 although as the peptides are at a lower concentration and I\u2019ve not seen any data on the results I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s worth what is a fairly hefty price for a hand cream.<\/p>\n

As for the neck serum<\/a>, I know Metro\u2019s Deputy Editor Claie has been crying out for this product, but personally, I\u2019ve never been convinced by the need for a separate product.<\/p>\n

\n
\n\t\t\"\"<\/a>\t<\/div>
I’ll confess, I might start using the body serum on my face… (Picture: No7)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In the words of skincare queen, Caroline Hirons, just \u2018take it to the t*ts\u2019 – i.e. apply your facial products down your neck and onto the d\u00e9collet\u00e9. <\/p>\n

But while I\u2019m usually pretty lazy about body products, the results of the body serum might just convince me to up my game. And I know No7 will hate me for saying this, but I\u2019d be tempted to use the body serum<\/a> (which is significantly cheaper than the face serum \u2014 it works out at 17.5p\/ml compared to 96p\/ml \u2014 but contains many of the same active ingredients) from toe to t*ts to the top of my head.<\/p>\n

Obviously buyer beware here \u2014 if you have very oily or sensitive facial skin, putting a body product on it might not be wise, but for me, admittedly a bit of a beauty renegade, I\u2019d gamble for the sake of getting clinically proven anti-ageing technology onto my face at a fraction of the price of the original.<\/p>\n
