THE Boots Boxing Day sale is a major must-see if you consider yourself a beauty fan.
The high street staple will join major retailers across the UK, slashing the price on hundreds of beauty items and gift sets in stores and online.
Boots Boxing Day sale
Boots discounts will begin on Christmas Day online as many shoppers unwrap their gifts on Christmas morning.
If you are lucky enough to receive a Boots voucher or some money, you can start browsing for items on your wishlist at boots.com.
The best Boots sale deals are generally on fragrance and Star gift sets as they offer the best value for money.
However, even picking up essentials during the sale can be a clever way to beat the rising cost of living.
Hundreds of bestselling items from Oral-B, No7, Dyson, Lancome and more went on sale last year, and shoppers can expect something similar for 2024.
There are already some impressive early savings being released on No7 products and selected premium beauty brands.

What was in the Boots Boxing Day sale last year?
Last year Boots kicked off its yearly Boxing Day sale tradition with a plethora of exclusive deals online and in stores nationwide.
Shoppers were treated to half-price savings on coveted Star gifts and premium beauty brands like MAC, Lancome and Fenty Beauty.
Electrical beauty gadgets and tools offers were also popular last year, with deals on hair tools and grooming kits like the Braun Series 7 Beard Trimmer, which was reduced to £49.99, from £82.49.
Mega savings on electric toothbrushes were also popular, with the Philips Sonicare DiamondClean 9000 slashed to £130, from its original £300 price tag.
Many shoppers used the sale as an opportunity to stock up on gifts for next Christmas, with one fan claiming to have “Already bought ALL my Christmas presents”, saving a whopping 90 per cent off the original RRP in the process.
When does the Boots Boxing Day sale end?
Boots Boxing Day sale usually runs well into the new year, however, many highly coveted items will sell out long before then.
Boots normally rolls out further reductions on sale stock in January, but the exact products and stock levels do vary.
Gift sets and electrical beauty items tend to be snapped up the fastest.
Many shoppers in the past have been able to score savings of up to 70 per cent, sharing their hauls on social media and online forums.
What is Boots’ Christmas returns policy?
Boots’ standard returns policy lets shoppers return any unwanted items free of charge within 35 days for a refund or replacement.
But over Christmas, Boots extends its returns policy, allowing shoppers to return Christmas gifts purchased online from 1st October 2024 up until the 31st of January 2025.
If items were bought in-store, shoppers have from 1st October until Friday 31st January 2025 to get an exchange or refund with the original receipt.
Boots will also allow returns in stores that are open on Boxing Day.
