No7 have launched a brand new retinol product, which was met with the most waitlist sign-ups ever.

The Boots brand has become a staple favourite in households across the country for its forward-thinking and highly effective products.

Ever since the brand launched its effective Protect & Perfect range back in 2007, fans have been in love with the line’s skincare products.

And this love means that any new release goes straight on our to-buy lists.

So it’s no surprise that No7’s new release gained a massive waiting list before it even hit shelves.

'No7 Advanced Retinol 1.5% Complex Night Concentrate is our first ever night concentrate created with a combination of two of the most powerful age-defying technologies in skincare in one expert formula,' writes the brand.

'This supercharged concentrate actively targets the visible sign of ageing and dullness to kick start surface skin renewal from the very first application, working night after night to deliver visibly younger looking skin'.

The highly-anticipated launch contains four powerhouse ingredients that fight against wrinkles while helping to calm the skin.

The brand opened up their waiting list for the new product two weeks ago and in just 24 hours it raked up a huge 48,000 sign ups.

And the new drop already has a host of five-star reviews from members of the Boots review panel.
