Hey,

I went to Target tonight and noticed that they had a whole section of Boots cosmetics now, all imported from the UK. I must admit I did a bit of a double take seeing the Boots logo on a big display in Target!

Just though some of the ex-pat Brits here would like to know.

Yeah, they've had them for a while at some Target stores. They must be expanding the number of stores now or something.

Guess so. I've never noticed them until tonight, and I'm pretty observant. Perhaps they've decided to go wide with Boots stuff after an initial trial. Must be very wide considering I live in the middle of bumf*ck Egypt.

Well.....what Boots cosmetics would be noteworthy? Worth seeking out?

Well probably only noteworthy in the way that Brits abroad pining for stuff from home would appreciate it. However I love their botanical facial scrubs, and I'm secure in my manhood enough to admit that! :)

Depends on the location. They started with a test area and not sure that they have expanded much beyond that - yet. I've been waiting/looking/watching for about a year.

Just came back from a visit home (unaccompanied, unfortunately) and I am happy to report that there is a big Boots section at the Target in Orange, CT. My mom was soooo happy because there is also a selection of Sanctuary bath items, which she is nuts about. Seems to be a lot of No.7 and Botanics stuff mostly though.

Oooh, just checked and you can buy online!!! http://www.target.com/gp/browse.html/ref=i...p;node=13827141

That's great to know, I'll check out my local Target, I always liked Boots stuff as I'm often allergic to make up and they do a good hypo-allergic range. Thanks for telling everyone.

Yup, Boots has been in the DC area Target's for about a year now. Quite a shock when I first saw it. But a good one! I used to love Boots when I was in Wales.
