First, we just wanted our skincare to give us clear skin, but now being blemish-free is no longer enough. Now we want dewy skin that radiates glow.

We want our skin to subtly hints that we've drunk gallons of water (we have not) and adhered to a strict skincare regime (we have not).

This is likely why this £4 serum from Boots has been selling like hot cakes.

The Boots Glow Dewy facial serum is a must-have in your summer beauty bag, and here's why...

Why we rate it:

Boots describes the serum as creating a "light catching" glow, while also helping to boost your skin's hydration levels.

Sounds dreamy, right?

The formula, (which is vegan and has not been tested on animals), contains glycolic acid, which works to exfoliate the skin and reduce the appearance of pores, redness and pigmentation.

Simply massage 2-3 drops into moisturised skin, focuses on key areas where you'd like a natural highlight effect.

It's affordable, it lasts all day long and it shines through even full-coverage foundation.

What the reviews say:

Boots' Glow Dewy facial serum has proved to be a hit with shoppers, here's why...

  • "Firstly the serum itself just looks so pretty when you squeeze it out. It sinks in very quickly and feels nice. I found I can use it quite liberally to build the glow in certain areas, it’s like an ever so slightly natural highlight to the skin."

  • "Very natural glow."

  • "Bought this a little sceptical because of the price but have been super impressed. My skin has really improved since using it."

  • "I brought this recently and it is such a great serum for that dewy look! Will defo buy again.
