Boots never fails to impress us throughout the year with its array of deals, offers, new launches and beauty bundles.
After months of speculation, Boots has finally confirmed the return of its hotly anticipated Star Gifts, which means one thing… Christmas is coming!
Now for those who may not know, have you been living under a rock? The Star Gifts come around as Christmas draws closer, and it sees a selection of exclusive products, bundles, or value gift sets heavily reduced for a limited time. What may be discounted one week, may not the next, and it’s unlikely that deal will return. So, if you see a bargain buy you will want to shop quickly so not to miss out.
Not only are the discounts impressive, as select items are discounted by up to half price, but they make for great gifts, whether it’s for a birthday, Christmas, or you’re banking it for another occasion later in the year.
The Star Gifts can range across beauty, skincare, bodycare, scent, and home fragrances, and across the multitude of big brands stocked at Boots too.
While it is technically still summertime, we can’t help but get excited for Christmas, especially when Boots’ Star Gifts start dropping, and there is no time like the present.
Yes, you read that right! Boots launched its first drop of Star Gifts for 2025 online only on 27th August, which includes over 50% off Sanctuary Spa sets, Ted Baker, Yankee Candle, Isle of Paradise and much more.
Of course, we will keep you updated as the weeks go on so you don’t miss out on the best Star Gifts.
