No7, the UK’s number one skincare brand,[1] has partnered with Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly to launch No7 Pro Derm Scan; a game-changing new diagnostic service which will give customers the ultimate in personalised, accessible skincare and cosmetic recommendations.
The new No7 Pro Derm Scan service uses a hand-held diagnostic device which analyses both skin condition AND skin tone. This technology combined with the expert advice of the No7 Beauty Advisors, is the first and only service of its kind to be available nationwide, providing free skincare analysis for Boots customers with a dermatologist-grade device.
The launch follows research conducted by No7 on 2,000 UK women[2] which found that 75 per cent of women only use a third of their skincare and makeup with a further 86 per cent confirming they have bought a skincare product only to try it and find it doesn’t suit their skin. No7’s Pro Derm Scan service will enable UK shoppers to understand their skin better and make the right decisions for their skincare and cosmetics routines based on scientific analysis of their own skin, providing confidence that they are purchasing products tailored to their specific needs and concerns.
Having met with a No7 Beauty Advisor to exclusively trial the No7 Pro Derm Scan service before it went live in Boots stores on Wednesday 6 April 2022, Claudia and Tess have shared their experiences of the new dermatologist-grade device:
Claudia Winkleman “I’m going to be frank. I have absolutely no idea about skincare. Is my skin oily or dry? Genuinely no clue. Having my No7 Pro Derm Scan analysis with a No7 Beauty Advisor was completely fascinating. I had no idea what I needed and why. Now I feel like I have some sort of skincare super power. I’ve often bought products on the spur of the moment but then when I try them at home, I realise they’re sticky, odd and don’t work for me. What’s brilliant about the No7 Pro Derm Scan is that it gives you an incredible read of your skin that means you can pinpoint exactly what your skin needs, and of course having a No7 Beauty Advisor to talk you through the results and how that translates into specific product and ingredient recommendations is magic. I think it will transform how I look after my skin as I now feel much more confident in choosing what works for my skin and am armed with much more skincare knowledge. P.S. I saw a close up of my forehead for the first time in 40 years. Thrilling and terrifying in equal measure.”
Tess Daly “I love all things skincare but there are so many products and ingredients it can be overwhelming knowing where to start with what’s right for you. The No7 Pro Derm Scan is so helpful as it gives a bespoke consultation about what products suit your skin, which is great as everyone’s skin type is so different. It only takes a couple of minutes in a Boots store and best of all, it’s free!”
The 15-minute No7 Pro Derm Scan consultation is available in 459 Boots stores nationwide and appointments can be booked online at https://www.boots.com/no7-
Following their instore experience, the duo co-hosted a star-studded launch event in London’s Leicester Square, with celebrities, media and influencers all in attendance and featured DJ sets from Rylan and Vick Hope. They were joined by No7 Beauty Advisors who gave attendees personalised Pro Derm Scan consultations using the hand-held dermatologist-grade device. Guests were then able to choose tailored products from our No7 Pick & Mix wall and snap themselves in the No7 selfie mirror.
