Good for baby things

Boots is an all rounder, but only if you’re after the right things.

I’ve bought make-up compacts from Boots and to be honest I have not had a pressed powder from there that has not smashed inside. Don’t buy make-up from the high street brand stands because the compacts are dropped and put back on the shelf.

However, one thing Boots is good for is their comprehensive collection of baby and toddler products - they stock eczema friendly brands such as Child’s Farm, My Little Coco, Aveeno, and they have their own range of bath, shampoo and lotion for children and babies that are much cheaper than Johnson & Johnson and contain fewer nasties.

They are also good as a pharmacy service, especially for elderly and vulnerable.
